For me, yes.. i hav to take a break...
This make my interest increase in that manga ("here comes the suspense!") by makin myself miserable and thinkin non-stop bout wat next. XD
Beside, it give a better 'digestion' on the interestin part rather than rushing on it..
My last reason will be to give my over-excited eyes a rest ^_^
Yes/No.
I ussually do, even though I don't want to.
And unless the manga's really good, by the time I come back to it, it's not as exciting for me.
I basically grind through a series in a day, and if I only finish half of the series in that one day,
I drop it. O___o I don't like reading manga. So why do I do it?
when i take a break frm it, i will definitely discuss/tell story about the manga to my friends... i always end up over-excited evry time i finish discussing wit my friends... :woohehe:
You have some pretty good friends.
I remember the last time I tried to explain something like VK.
ME:
So there's this vampire girl and there's this love traingle between her brother and this guy who hates vampires named Zero... WAIT! NO! That's his name! No, shut up! It's not incest...
:dignose: *sniffles. Not fair. Why is it so hard to explain these little series with complex plots?
i just lucky to have friends that crazy about manga as much as i do... :=X:
its much easier to discuss with someone that have same level of interest as you...
but still manga like VK is really hard to explain... it also happen to me sometimes...
Normally i just tell them to read by themselves first...
lol! You are lucky!
Scanlation has ruined my life. XDDD
All I see while reading manga is bad cleaning, un centered text, untranslated SFX...
Then I see bad grammar... and it ruins my day. No longer read manga like I used to. D:<
It's especially hard when I can't remember their names :dignose:
ya... 1 out of 5 manga i read sure got bad cleaning, bad grammar and stuff like like tat...
once i read a manga that doen't even been cleaned and the grammar so lousy.. it really ruined my mood to read... >:(
But what to do?? Since im so so so deeply obsessed with manga, no matter how bad or terrible the quality is, i'll try and force myself to finish it up (complaining non-stop while reading..hehe)
WAAAAH! :noway:
And I hate those shitty scans where they have it so small that I can't read what they're saying!
Well, that's why you're with us! To fight those evelities!
*evil laugh goes here. XD
I usually read a manga straight through to the end if I can. Hell, i wa sdoing it in class lately too. :woohehe: Not once was I discovered, though I suspected the teachers were on to me when they started trying to edge around my field of vision.
Neh.. I only read it when the class is boring... Most of my classes are boring though... Hahahaha
Besides, my class got like more than 50 students in it... So my lecturer don't have a clue about it...
:=D: :goodjob:
I wish I could do that at camp. It'd be great fuuuun~ <3
Best distraction to the sweaty shit headed teenage boys around me.
>O The rest of them are geniuses. I'm feeling stupid ~_~ :dignose:
O_O wait is this the nerdy math camp?
No. Thank GOD.
I wonder if the guy in skinny jeans is gay.

Skinny jeans are very un-manly? XDDD

We're just boring people.
wait.............why is your post count thing "leet" ?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
LEET is just advanced chatting language.
EH?? ok. well, now it's gone......O_O
No... I'm one of those people who will sit down, for like a whole day and read the whole manga series, in one sitting (unless it's an extremly long series like Bleach or Nauto).
TODAY...when i was reading VK...WHERE YUUKI FINALLY SUCKED ZERO'S BLOOD... :shy:
I stopped and took a rest for the first time =_=
I zip right through thrilling parts, but I do not handle awkward/embarrassing situations well because I feel all the pain and strain. So sometimes I have to put it down for a minute and work up the strength to get through. XD (It's the same for anime/movies. But not for books, somehow.)
Also, I have yet to finish my favorite manga. It's a slice-of-life with no terribly dramatic or awkward parts, but I stopped about 10 chapters away from the end, and never finished. I will someday. But for now, I don't want it to be over. T_T
xD i used to zip right through, but now...i've learned to savor the nice moments <3
meh...=_= i never stop in the middle of a shounen manga
If I can help it I never stop in an exciting part... the only times is when the internet is slow and I start posting because it is faster....
D: mainly, it's always the computer's fault. meh...i sometimes skip over parts because it's...either overly gory or just plain boring.
but i've never taken a super long break before...
Heck no, unless the next vol. isn't out :crywithno:
Yes :goodjob:
Whenever it reached an exciting part or embarassing part, I stop reading and jump around :=X:
I only do that when I am not alone in the room... I want to enjoy alone :woohehe:
IKR ? :=X:
Sometimes when I was jumping, my mom suddenly comes in and I stare at her awkwardly. XD
I know... I jump tabs or screens sometimes I jump at the slightest sound :=X:
I don't dare to make a soind :=X: I'm scared that my mom thinks I'm crazy.
I dont know how you guys have that self-control.
I just keep plowing, who cares about sleep.
Ah, sleep, yes. Sometimes, i forgot the time :goodjob: And I wasted a lot of time while watching an interesting anime. Why? I keep on pausing on the...best part or embarassing part. Jump around for good few minutes, sit back down, and watch it. I need almost an hour and a half to watch a half an hour episode if it is interesting :love:
Esp. with Skip Beat getting juicy, -SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE- I can't handle taking a break.
But it's taking a long time :'(
skip beat??? I have not read or watched it....
Read it. The anime is too short :crywithno:
It's hard to do !!!
I'm always planning to, but end up thinking:
"just a little more"
then "let's read 'till the next suspense moment"
then "Let's just see how it will end or I won't be able to sleep..."
then "There's no suspense ! If I stop now I won't want to read next time..."
"but the suspense is too hard too bear..."
Etcetera up 'till morning :
"EEEh !! Already ?! Night is short...*caugh*"
T_T
My mom makes me go to bed... otherwise i could pull all nighters
She got used to it (my mom) still sometimes she sends me to bed.
18 already, but she'll treat me as a minor as long as she'll be around ^^"
I'll try to stop at an exciting moment when reading a manga... I'll tell you if I survived !!
xD I just keep reading until there are no more scans available...
noms. Sleep? psshht...who needs it when you have manga?
LOL, sleep. Pretty sure I've gone on my laptop intending to read only a chapter or two only to find myself two/three hours later still reading... JUST WHAT HAPPENS IN THOSE HOURS THAT PASSES SOMETIMES I AM TOO TIRED TO REMEMBER. 8')
Anyway, I usually plow through, if there are chapters avaliable. I only remember stopping for three mangas - the first is Mekakushi no Kuni when I cried in the first chapter; the second is in Inuyasha [spoiler]when Kagura died that so very ironic and tragic death ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;[/spoiler]; and the last was in the Korean webcomic Cheese in the Trap during that so very awkward moment in chapter 35. I... could not bring myself to scroll down - it was quite a challenging chapter. *__*;;
I've taken a break before when things make me go, :o_o: :=X: or :crywithno:
Though it's usually only a 1-5 minute break before I have to go back and continue on out of curiosity and excitement haha!
i wouln't really do that since my excitement would go down... :swt:
I can't do it... I get too curious, and then stay up all night trying to find out what happens... :swt:
I know! in fact, I hate it when it's already time to sleep when I'm at a good part. it leaves me insane thinking what would happen :noway:
I know that's right Pau, then you start making some up that you think is going to happen and what you made up is no where close to what really happened.
yup. that happens A LOT

UGH when the part is really really intense, I can't even get to sleep unless I read it T_T
sometimes i would even pretend im studying just to open my laptop :swt:
If I'm at an exciting part, I just keep reading... :swt:
I only stop reading when there's nothing interesting. Usually I go read another one, untill I'm bored.
Sometimes without realizing it I spend the whole night (or almost) reading manga~
me too XD
except for nights when exams coming up :swt:
It's horrible... Manga is my excuse for procrastinating T_T
Manga is too addictive...
Quote from: Angel~ on June 02, 2013, 03:50
Manga is too addictive...
yup~way better than drugs, cigarettes and liqour *skip
I will have to agreed with you Pau
:goodjob:
I've read thousands of manga, for me I spend 30% of my time looking for good manga to read, 30% of the time going through the first chapters of boring manga, 30% of my time editing manga and 10% of the time catching up on the latest chaps which update automatically on my iphone.
I love my addiction~~~ :love:
so true :)
NOOOOO I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT IT MAKES ME MADE WHEN IM READING AND I GET TO A GOOD PART AND SOMEONE WANTS ME TO DO SOMETHING
Thank you for the all caps i would have never known that u were mad about that lol :)
Not mad excite to say my point :o_o:
:goodjob: :)
I did good :o_o: :goodjob: *skip
yep :=D:
yup~ *skip
LOL
I believe I said that I would, but that's only IF the scanlators left it that way. [hate it, so much when they do that]
But nowadays, I would not pause a break at the suspense part, because everything counts and nothing should be missed out.
^DEFINITELY TRUE :goodjob:
I just keep reading when the suspense starts, I can't handle the wait!!
^ agreed
true :swt:
NECROPOST
I do... when my heart starts racing I usually have to take a break, I get too excited.... :swt:
I don't get taking a break at the most exciting moment! I read faster then, because I want to know what is going to happen!!!
No...I want to know what happen next...I'm so excited :o_o:
[even though my knees are shaking with excitement.,]
I sometimes let out audible squeals...
Quote from: Angel~ on March 20, 2014, 12:39

I know that feels like
:goodjob:
No. I keep reading through theh end, if the whole chapters are available.
Because if I take a break, I'll definitely lost the feeling and have to reread to recover what I have lost.
I read many mangas, so that's why I keep mixing my memories and feeling with others.
My situation was always :noway: and :donwan:, when I reach suspense/exciting part of the ongoing mangas. And that's kind of annoying.
teach you a way to counter that :goodjob:
Read completed mangas or anime only. :love:
Then you wouldn't be like :donwan: :donwan: :donwan:
That's what I do as well... I can't handle ongoing ones! You lose track of everything and end up re-reading the whole manga... (has read one piece 4 times now when trying to catch up)
I wonder how many times I have reread one piece and skip beat while waiting for the releases...
I read naruto once and that was it LOL :yawn:
I started at chapter 600 plus, and then just followed up weekly updates,
fortunately it ended :wahaha:
For hunter x hunter, probably I will have to reread it dozens of times since the mangaka keeps going on hiatus :omg:
I think I've reread Naruto twice and that was about a year ago, so I should reread it now and finally see the end!
No I never take a break when reach an interesting part but if someone forces me to, my mood goes off :noway:
forces you to?
Like how O-o?
^ same question....
