If you were a Mangaka, would you rather make a manga that makes a LOT of money, but you particularly don't enjoy it; Or a Manga that makes JUST enough to live off of, but you absolutely enjoy writing. 4q3a44

Quote from Sapphiresky

How about:

Do you speak Japanese?
-Native fluency
-Yes, I can understand most things
-Yes with some difficulty
-I know a lot but am not fluent
-I know only the basics
-Only what I learned from anime/manga
-None. None whatsoever.

Here's a suggestion that I thought of because of the current poll (Do you know Japanese?):

What's your JLPT level?

• N1
• N2
• N3
• N4
• N5
• I plan to take it soon
• I know Japanese, but I'm not interested in JLPT
• I plan to study Japanese, but I'm not interested in JLPT
• I'm not interested in studying Japanese

I'm not sure if this has been done before (it probably has), or previous polls focused on just preference of online reading vs. physical copies.

How available are manga published in your language and country?
-In most major book stores
-Only in specialty stores
-Can only purchase online (physical copies on amazon, etc.)
-Only official digital releases
-No publications in my language/country

Quote from Lorska

some very simple ideas:

Are you a member here?
-yes, an active one.
-yes, but only lurking.
-no, just a common guest.

Probably should've done this one a lot earlier

Thought about this recently with some scanlators retiring or disappearing from the community. Thought it'd be interesting to see the results.

• Only if I like it.

This has probably been done before but....

Quote from Nekomikoto

A group has been scanlating one of your favorite manga for a while now. One day a new group decides to scanlate that same series. What do you do?
-Read the old group's version
-Read the new group's version
-Read both versions
-Read the faster version
-Read the higher quality version
