why do you read manga ? and watch anime?

[mewmewcrystal]

you do we watch and read manga ? +.+ i dont know i have so many

[caseclosed]

because if we watched manga and read anime that wouldnt make sense:D

[Harisenbon]

Because reading manga is the best way to learn how to read the commonly used 1500 kanji?

And it's a great way to procrastinate from ACTUAL studying?

"Shouldn't you be studying?"
"no no! I'm reading books! It's a KIND of studying!"

[InsanityRanch]

Because manga is one of the few places to read *spoken* Japanese? (For those of us who have limited opportunities to speak to actual Japanese people, it's nice to see the spoken language written down.)

[Ishikawa]

Because i love it!! And is the better way to read japanese with fun and passion!!!
I started in 1990 and i dont want to stop....till i find it funny and i will love to do!!!

[hiei]

Because they rock.B) Do you need a better reason?

[Mariya]

Lol I don't know if I have a good enough answer for that I guess its coz it rocks, just as hiei said! I'ts really enjoyable too, and you can learn quite a bit of Japanese from it.
Also, what InsanityRanch said, I absolutely agree. There is nobody for me to speak or hear Japanese from, therefore I get my kick out of it from Manga.

I actuly started out reading Manga to impress this boy:).Then I got hooked on it and didn't care anymore.

I rarely watch anime, though.

[ShinDig]

heh, lol did u get the boy then

[Neko Ami]

I think it's because that manga like means irresponsible pictures or sumthing like that, and anime is realated to animation which is moving pictures.

[white-chocolate-twix]

Sadly, No. My friend ratted me out at he hasn't talk to m since.

[ShinDig]

awww....*hug*

[jaela]

because it has become like an addiction .. i can never imagine life without my anime ... (just for the record: i'm a newbie manga reader .. lovin' it too ...) :D:D

My friend got me hooked on manga and I've been watching anime ever since I can remember.
