Hey everyone, sorry for not updating this staff blog more often. I think the other staff members are feeling a bit shy, and things have been pretty hectic for me the past few weeks.
In any case, I suspect many of our readers also enjoy viewing manga. Like many of you, I first found out out PR! through an advert from Oddsquad Scan’s translation of the manhua adaptation of Prince. Speaking of which, you might have noticed some promotional material for OSS on our site. Eilinel has been in contact with them and is working to get more people aware of the novel translation from the manhua viewers and vice versa. There might be further cooperation with OSS in the future, so stay tuned!
Anywho, I really like reading all sorts of manga. I’d guess I must have finished or am actively following at least 100 different series (and that’s a conservative estimate!). What really draws me to them is the exciting storyline and having a crazy cliffhanger at the end of every chapter that makes you itching to come back for more. (Though you have to admit, our novel translations are somewhat superior in that regard, right? =P)
Being such an avid reader, I was pretty disappointed when OneManga shut down, as that’s where I had discovered many of my favorite series. There wasn’t any site with all the manga and features of OM that I liked, but eventually I settled on mangareader. Being such a lazy efficient reader who hates clicking through each page, I even made a userscript to allow me to view entire chapters and series just by scrolling down. (It’s available here if you’re interested. Firefox w/Greasemonkey/Chrome/Opera only). I suspect I’d never make it through all those series without it.
Why do you like manga? Which series do you like? Where do you get your weekly fix of manga? Feel free to share your thoughts here.
