Reading Manga is really addicting and it might be dangerous and not only to our health but also for social life and grades/work
For example I have to repeat an exam in september and I haven't started learning yet because of reading manga/watching anime
I still have almost a month time to learn this but I have to start and now reading manga takes much of my free time so it will be very hard to discontinue this 'drug'  |

I got addicted when I first found out that I can get manga from internet.Sometimes I will not sleep to finish reading all the manga available in a site. Sometimes I wasn't eat anything for several hours.
But that all gone now. Luckyly, I manage to solved my addicted. |

| It is true that reading manga is fun but you cannot do it the whole time. There must be boundaries and you have to find a way of reading manga in a balanced way. |

One thing: yes, manga is INCREDIBLY addictive, and given the chance, I would probable never eat or sleep, anything like that for as long as possible, sleep for a few hours, and start again. Hoever, with my busy new School schedule, I will only get to read for about an hour a day, so all is well. Still, I wish I had access to more stuff, you know? I go through this stuff like a fat man through M&M's  |

Plenty of people die from being on the computer too long.
People die from playing Counter-Strike and Diablo. They get no sleep and no food for 2 days.
I hope you people don't end up like that with manga. Not even for 1 day... |

haha... Guess it wont b marked in the history, it's pretty hard for a person to accidentally suicided oneself with manga though
In my point of view, it depends in what situation n how strong ur self-control is... If a person bad in self-control n he's in the crisis of getting near with school exam, it's better he work out a light speed overnight reading to finish all the manga in order to loose the feeling to continue(provided he had started to read; if not, mind as well don't start)
If the manga is way too long... pass it to me, i help u finish it then tell u the story in summary, hehehe..  |

| Self Control is good. Everyone addicted to manga or anime should have atleast some control. If you're reading till 4am, you don't have control. Get help. |

manga could described as your "lover"
sometimes you know it's dangerous
you realise that you could be better off if staying away from it
but you just simply cannot
because you love it
all you can do is hate yourself for loving it |
