[...] to read than most scanlated manga, which is normally, for reasons outlined in the second half of this post, a bit of a struggle. Being asked to process a crazy mix of verse and images seems to slow me down [...]

I don’t think I would, but then I’ve never been very adventurous when it comes to new tastes.

Ummm… I would?

@ ETERNAL: Ah, a fellow sufferer! I’m not comfortable reading while lying down myself, though I wouldn’t say that makes me any less lazy. I think it’s because my arms are too weak to either hold a book up above my head or to lift my body up so I can get my head over the pages.

@ The Sojourner: More to the point, would you lick them?

Yeah. It is not ice-cream. No wait… That is not right.

I’ve been meaning to watch the Blue Drop anime for a while now, I just haven’t got around to it yet…on the other hand, hearing people talk about shows that I haven’t seen like this always makes me want to go and catch up.

Alternatively, I could also just read the manga, but one of the reasons why I don’t read as much manga as I should has already been addressed by you: I hate reading manga on screens as well. Sometimes it’s because of the size/quality/other problems, but more often than not, it’s also because I like to lie around while reading. It’s lazy, I know, but it’s comfortable ;P

While it’s relatively graphic in its treatment of sex (at least for something that isn’t hentai) I doubt it would scar anyone, so you can probably relax on that score.

As of the moment, I’m mustering up the courage to read TnB (I promised Owen I’m gonna give it a read, oh gawd what have I gotten myself into!), and I can only hope I can get past the “distracting pandering” aspects, and find it mindfuckingly awesome or something. If ever I get scarred, there will always be shoujo mangas I can turn to for “healing”.

Windows image viewer? I remember a time when I had to unarchive chapter/volume files, then use that old (but still functional) program. Nowadays, I found CDisplay, which is a comic book reader that allows you to read from archives (zip/rar) directly. Here’s a link: http://www.geocities.com/davidayton/CDisplay.

@ Michael: There are shallower reasons to read something . . . but perhaps not many.

@ Hige: Art quality’s a good point – I’ve been reading Junk in hardcopy recently and besides the obvious things like better-defined lines, I’ve noticed that the onscreen version can’t bring out the murkiness that Asamiya uses.
