--Does anyone out there judge a manga by it's cover/art work??--

I feel that if someone is relatively new to manga then they may judge that particular manga series based purely on the cover and/or artwork (I'm definitely guilty of this!). I know it may not even make all that sense as the cover artwork changes if a manga has more than one volume, but if it doesn't does anyone create an assumption on how good or bad the series will be (I know it sounds kinda harsh).


...I can't be the only one, right???

    I do that sometimes too, but I find it kinda annoying if a particular manga is overrated. Like, once I start reading a manga that's really popular and by the end find that it's not really anything special....

    it's called fanbasis, and i understand you, it's really annoying, when there's a lot of fanbasis but at the end it wasn't that good, i think it's just a thhing of pov Σ(  ̄□ ̄||)

    SAO being one of the most irritating fanbases for anime. Not so sure about any manga fanbases though...
