[admin post] Admin Post: question time!

Now that we've got a few people in here, I'd like to start things off by revisiting the canon we're here for! There are, obviously, a few ways we can do this, which is where you all come in. Please answer the following questions in the comments; once everyone's answered or a few days pass, I'll use your responses to come up with a schedule for regular discussion posts.

  1. Which would you prefer to do as a group?
    A) Read the manga
    B) Watch the anime
    C) Both read the manga and watch the anime

  2. If we focus on reading the manga, what pace would you prefer?
    A) 1 volume a month
    B) 1 volume every 2 weeks
    C) x chapters a week
    D) x chapters a month
    E) I trust your judgment, internet stranger!

  3. If we focus on watching the anime, what pace would you prefer?
    A) 1 episode a week
    B) 2 episodes a week
    C) x episodes every 2 weeks
    D) x episodes a month
    E) I trust your judgment, internet stranger!

  4. If we focus on both the manga and the anime, would your pace preferences change? To what?

  5. If we watch the anime, which would you prefer?
    A) The subbed version
    B) The English dub
    C) Everyone picks their favorite/most convenient language and we make it work

  6. If you're new to the series or didn't see/read all of it, would you like the discussions to remain spoiler-free for later parts?


Hopefully that covers everything, but if I missed something or you have any questions, of course feel free to ask. Thank you!

1. B - Watch the anime. I read the manga last year but have only seen a couple dozen episodes of the anime. It'd also be easier for me to obtain.

2. B - Any long-form read-along I've participated in has died off when stretched out too long.

3. B - See above. The anime is about 100 episodes, isn't it? That's a year of watching at two a week.

4. Maybe pause one if it gets too far ahead of the other?

5. C - I'd probably be going back and forth anyway.

6. No preference. Even for anyone new to the series, it's 25yo.
