  • Second Game Crash?

    Nintendo, once the company that saved gaming, is now facing backlash for filing patents that could let it claim ownership over common gameplay mechanics, sparking fears it could stifle creativity and harm both major studios and indie developers alike.

  • So… Doctor Who Just Regenerated Into Rose Tyler?

    According to writer Robert Shearman, the 15th Doctor’s regeneration into Billie Piper has basically put a full stop on the entire Doctor Who story. That’s a wild way to end things if he’s right. After all these years, do you think this is a fitting way to close the loop or does it feel more like the show’s run out of ideas?

How do you feel about long-running manga vs. shorter, self-contained series?

Some stories stretch on for years with hundreds of chapters, while others wrap up neatly in a handful of volumes.

Which do you prefer, and why?
  • Long-running epics that let you really sink into the world
  • Short, self-contained series that tell a complete story quickly
Let’s hear your thoughts!

Both. But in a different sense. Same manga, but divided into different titles. What I'm trying to say is, the same manga has many different volumes, and each volume tells different arc, but all of them under one overarching plotline. It feels tedious to see "oh now we are on 1000 chapters" but if I see "ok 30-chapters is done, now onto the next title, and another 30 chapters", that is better in my opinion
