What's your favorite way to read manga? Online or do you wait for the bound volumes?

Pipp Petals I would honestly prefer to wait for the volumes, but since I'm not allowed to read manga, I have to read it online.

Paige S I read on the Shonen jump app for 1.99 a month but all the current manga is free. I don’t have enough room to by all the volumes so I buy my favorite parts.

Kaneki Ken I usually read manga online and wait for the new updates. However, whenever I go to a bookstore, I'll buy one. Whether is one that I haven't read yet, or one that I love the chapters.

Lexi It depends on the series. I usually read the first two books and if I enjoy I tend to but the physical copies if not I read it all online.

Alex The Shonen jump app is a fantastic deal and the platform is great and only $1.99!! There are also apps you can download that are ✨cheaper✨ where I find all the romance manga I can’t get on the Jump app. I’m too poor to invest in multiple volumes unless it’s top tier, so reading on apps allows me to see if something is worth the investment.

Antonia I have to have the physical books! The cover art is so beautiful, and I enjoy how they look decorating my shelves. Plus it’s easier to focus

Neek's Rusty Sword The bound volumes for almost everything except chibi vampire because my library (my source of manga) only had book 1 and 13

Dex Green Online. I just like being able to open an app and catch up on manga in a binge.

Krishi Raman Definitely holding the manga feels different like I love online manga and have nothing against reading it online I also do it when I want to check a manga out before buying but I feel as tho the psychical copy I’ll wait for
