personally, i read em online cuz im just a kid. but if i had a job then the ones i couldnt find online i would buy >.<

i used to buy all my mangas or read them in the storee, but then i started searching them up online and found tons of great manga! so i dn't really remember the last time i bought a manga truthfully =x

I like to read my manga online.

I usually read them online if available, to see if its good or not or if its complete. and if its not complete and is good also available in English i would buy it. :relaxed:

Both! Manga is like crack (for me).

I spend about $100 a month on licensed manga that I find appealing and I download tons, too. Most of the stuff I download is either not licensed or has been running forever (Naruto, Bleach, etc). So long as its got an ending and is a reasonable length, I try to buy what I download, too.

well.... i don't buy manga online because i don't know how to. i know i'm such a dork. T.T but at least i can download mangas.... :)

I usually read them online >< but I do buy some to support the authors :YAY!:

I read all my manga online, only because my parents wouldn't let me buy manga. T.T

I read a lot of manga online but when I get a favorite I go ahead and buy them or since I live in Japan, when a group isn't scanlating fast enough for me :D I just go ahead and buy it so I can find out what happens next. Then I usually figure out that the mangaka is also not moving at my pace...

i read manga online, since i know im not gnna read them again. its a waste of money.

i would rather read them online than buy them. i guess its cheaper n easier that way.

I read the manga online first and if I'm really in love with it then I'll buy it as well so I can have a hard copy <33 xD

I read it online.

There was one guy I didn't know in the store and he was watching me all the time. It was scary! Q_Q! (I almost pee on my pants-Ok I'm kidding xD!).

i do both

online if its unlicensed or if it's completely scanlated.

buying for the licensed if they are not full scanlated online (though i still do buy some of the good ones) i have to set a lime of about $100 a month. if not i would be spending like $300-400 a month on manga

of course online... ^_^
but if the manga is really interesting i don't hesitate to spend my money on them.. :hahaha:

humm... usually i read them online... it's easier.. and frankly it's really really expensive to buy manga's where i live.. *sigh*

I only download or read them online ;o i thinkk buying it is a waste if you can find it online :)

I read manga online, since it is cheaper and I am able to delete manga easily if I am not interested in that particular manga anymore. One other thing is that there are manga out there that really are classic and a good read that is not licensed in the United Sates; therefore, I am grateful for the translators, editors, proof-readers, etc. for their work in those mangas not in the United States.

online
cause where i live they dont have mangas D:

i usually download manga to read it. There's a wider range of mangas to choose from and there are so many great mangas that hasn't been liscensed yet too! however, i do occasionally buy them if i find anything new or interesting ^_^

if i had a job... i'd be able to buy more.... T.T

I usually read online, because I live in chile , and here is very difficult to find manga, so is easiest to read online.
But when I found some manga that i like I always bought it.

I def read and dl my mangas since there are no bookstores around me that sells mangas and esp not a lot of the ones I read are licensed or has not been distributed. I care not I just like to read the ones that arent around for sale. I also thank scanlators for doing this I love you guys! :HIYA!:

i read it online because i don't even know where to get them.

Reading online mostly. Its easier and faster.
I usually buy only when i couldnt find the manga online ^_^

I read it online in my country you can't find shoujo ones the ones that are on sale here are only things like naruto, fairy tale, ranma, saint seya and so on... T.T

Same here. My country also very little manga..only chuangyi de. So online reading is better :FOOD!:

Bothh.
I don't have a job yet so I read more online then buying it.
8D;

most of the manga i have read was online but when i find a manga that i am absolutley crazy for i buy it because i want to own it and read it whenever i want hehe there are many manga that i wish were licensed so i could buy it

online. i have never bought manga since i don't have the money, and besides it is really more practical reading it online.

i usually read them online, and if i really like, i'll buy them in japanese so i can both own them and study>_< also because they're WAY cheaper
Us=$10
JPN= $3-6

i download unlicensed manga, if it's avaliable in my language (and it's good) then i buy it, especially if it's one of my favorite authors

I buy mangas that i've been reading online when they become available

other than that, i just read online

i buy only if it's good enough to keep lol.
Like death note and fruits basket >w<

i used to read them at the stores until i started downloading them and it was great because there were a lot of mangas you could read

i USUALLY READ ONLINE OR DOWNLOAD SINCE BUYING THEM IS SO EXPENSIVE

I tend to read a bit of manga in stores and I only own 3 volumes of volumes of manga. Each is a different manga xD 1 was a present and the other 2 I bought at separate times.

Most of the time I just read online or download

i mostly read it all online cause its easier (& cheaper) :D but i also buy mangas.. only if they're worth it :)

I usually read them online. I also buy them too.. I have 21 manga books in my room.
:hahaha:

i'd prefer reading them online
[;

At first I read the manga and when it siuts me I buy them
