I was just curious to know how you guys pace yourself when reading a full volume of a manga?

Typically for me, I take about an hour when I am totally focused. Other times, it seems like I like to space my reading and read half the manga one day and finish the next.

It depends on the quality of the artwork, but for the most part I like to take my time and examine certain details page by page.

I can read my mangas in under 1 hour for every book. Its not that hard once you get hooked into the book =]

true, quality determines the time. an interesting manga also took me nearly an hour to complete it. if you mean graphic novel manga, that's the time i need. but, manga with numbered volumes take me days, of course. when it gets boring, i'll just 'automatically' flip the pages with a glance on each page. i just need to finish it then only i re-check some interesting details to appreciate it

mostly, i'll take a break when i'm reaching an exciting part. this is what make my interest increase in that manga ("here comes the suspense!") other reason will be to give my over-excited eyes a rest ^_^

20 minutes. I just dart my eyes from here and there if the art sucks.

Well, apparently, it takes me 10-15mins to read a chapter of a manga. I usually like to limit myself to 2 chapters per day, so that it's lasts a while. (Usually 4 days, but I may not read for a few days)

hmm lesee....ijes got tenjou tenge from vol. 1 -15 2 days ago...and i finished them oredi...so i say pretty fast XP

so long the stories interesting and art considerable...ill read it

I blast through them lol. I want to know so much about what happens i just go through flipping lol. Although i get the text and the general idea from the pictures i don't really stop enough to appreciate some of the great art sometimes.

Lol, I do that all the time as well. Besides, it's always good to know when you'll get to a good part and stop right there -- you "take in" the more important parts better than rushing the experience.

I read pretty quickly, so I end up reading a book in about 30-45 minutes. I read a new book a few times a day though, in order to fully understand it.

In the store if I'm not interested in buying it, I can read it in 15mins quickly. But when I buy manga to read, I like to take my time, and look at the drawings aswell. So it can take an hour, especially if it's very good and captivating. Talking about one volume by the way.

I speed by pretty fast.... usually around 45 minutes...unless i'm really really into the story..then i take everything pretty slow and pay lots of attention to the smallest of details....

Well, it's depend on what type of manga, if there is fighting scene, or sports manga where there only pic and maybe a little text I can finished it in 15-20 mins. But if the manga have tons of converstaion I finished it in about 50-60 mins.

depends on what series it is, and what type I guess. I find that I tend to read CLAMP pretty fast, and action ones. but for shoujo, I stare at the pretty pictures... so yeah, I'm pretty slow... esp reading Fruitsbasket. I stop and stare at the pretty pictures and the chibis! oh yeah, if the series has lots of cute chibis, then it takes me forever because I obsess over them ;;

I can usually read a manga in about....30 to 45 minutes, depends how long the manga is.A manga with 200 pages takes me 30 to 45 minutes a shorter one like only 130 pages like 15 to 25 minutes.^_^

really depends on what kinda series im reading but usally itll b between 1-2 hours
1 if im not interestd, and 2 hours if im reeli interestd in it, i tend to look & stare at the art heHe and i read kinda slow most of the time as well

45 minutes to 2 hours or maybe more. I know it's damn long but I just take my time to admire the arts and to read slowly so I dont miss anything. 30 minutes or less when there isnt much

Well, if it's like an action mangaa, with lots of fighting and less dialogue, then maybe 20 minutes. but if it has more dialogue in it, maybe an hour or two.

if its really interesting i read it in less than an hour! if i thought it was that good i'd prolly read it over again xD

i agree on the quality.. it usually takes me about an hour if i'm really concentrating.

35 to 50 minutes i like to enjoy every page. and enjoy joke, pun, anything they throw in especially Fanservice personally i think a manga can never have enough of that.

Depends on how interesting the manga is, it it is interesting I would take around an hour or less. If it isn't so interesting then it would take a few days. Some time before reading I look through the pages first, and kind of get the idea how the story goes, if it interests me then I start reading right away.

It depends on how much time I get at work to read. Usually i can finish a manga in a day or two. ^_^

I can get through them in about an hour, or maybe a little more, since I'm a relatively slow reader overall. Another important factor in how long it takes is the amount of text on each page. Death Note, for example, had an especially large amount of text so it took me a lot longer.

one day i read one in 4 min i dont know how but i think there were alot of pages with picture on it wierd and it was in class
