Default What type of manga do you usually read? (Poll, please vote!)

I and a few others have been trying to steadily read a bunch of manga to add entries to the database, but it seems hit or miss as to which ones end up being marked by all of you.

I know part of this is because there aren't a lot of manga fans on the site yet (given the small selection), but I'd like to get a jumpstart on what YOU ALL tend to read, so I can focus on those first :)

For this reason, please vote in the poll for the type of manga you tend to read. You can select more than one option, but please choose only the options that you read the MOST (if you read all types, just choose the few you like the best)

Please vote in the poll options!
Discussing is fine too, but we'll be using the poll options for the results.

Thanks!

(note: when i got to the bottom I realized there were a few I forgot to put in there - sorry for the out of order thing alphabetically!)

I don't really read much. I'm only reading Naruto because it's freakin' awesome and the anime SERIOUSLY needs to catch up. I read Bleach in the hopes it gets good (it doesn't really imo.)

Aside from that the only series I'd be remotely interested in are comedies. I'm always up for a good laugh.

Horror and psychological mostly, with a dash of yuri or romance.

gah, cant believe i forgot sci fi!!

i've replaced historical with sci fi, as historical is quite minor and wrapped up in other important genres usually.

if you would have chosen sci fi and have already voted, please just respond and i can update the count manually.

mecha i probably wont replace anything with as it's usually sci fi-based anyways

zakiel- Well... If she wants to, soth can change the poll limit from vbulletin's admin panel. The main point is that there is (was at the time of my previous post) nothing representing anything close to scifi, which is a pretty significant category. In comparison, there are several ones on the list that are at least within the ballpark of each other, enough so that if you wanted one you could pick one of the others (ecchi<->smut, slice of life<->school life, etc).

sothis- Yeah, it's not highly important to have mecha, as long as there's scifi. I was going to mark mecha as one of my choices, then figured I'd check scifi when mecha wasn't there, then said "well F~..." when scifi wasn't there either. :p
