wow, this thread has been ressurected many times over xD.

I tend to download anime because there's no place to buy it here, and buying it online would cost more for the shipping and handling than the actual anime. I buy manga though, if I've seen the anime and know it's worth it to buy. Otherwise I download it, and buy it if I like it/can find it.

Also a point that hasn't already mentioned I think is that in countries other than Japan, new chapters are difficult to get, so if you actually want to read a chapter each week, your only option would be to download them or read them online.
If I lived in Japan, I wouldn't mind buying naruto each week (though I have my doubt about bleach, it has become so boring recently...but that's another subject).

Everytime I see this thread, I keep thinking of some frat-boy asking me, "Dude, are you holdin' ?"

I just wish someone would come up with a universal translator, so I wouldn't have to search the WWW for an english version of mangas.

Show me a man who buys crappy anime, and I'll show you a man who votes Republican.

yes, and it troubles me so. I'm starting to wonder if the stories of inbreeding in America aren't true.

Never bought manga. You don't want my advice, all I ever want is pr0n, can't help myself when they put covers like this on them:

You're right, maybe I should ask someone else
What was your first manga though?
