completely agree.. I have a list made with about 50 mangas the list is titles. Mangas I'll read if they ever finish... Cuz they were cluttering up my want to read folder
Many great manga can go on for 10 years.
I leave them alone is what i'm doing. 3 years or 5 years then come back to it to see if its finished. I hate cliffhangers too.
One Piece & Finder are almost 20 years, Crimson Spell's 15 years.. and they are still ongoing.. I just wanna give you info that if you wait until the great/popular manga finished before start reading, you may not have a chance to read from whatever reasons.
I know, but.....maaaaan cliff hangerssssss
Sometimes i do break this policy, but only for like the one who looks worth it by the reviews
Regularity in release is not just the same in bl and shounen manga. Like, they have a different culture when it comes to a manga lifespan. It's easier to get over a title in bl while if you do that in shounen or seinen you will miss a lit of title. So there's your difference.
No matter how popular or good rated the story is i rather wait till it finished than being hanged in a fucking cliff hanger
