Actually, I got curious after what you said, spent 1 min. to do the math, and approximately 4500 yaoi manga are listed completed while only 1350 are incomplete so....
True, that’s why I only wait for updates for one or two mangas bc I know some may never be updated and I also have been reading only completed mangas bc I’m scared to like one of the new added manga that may never be updated and lately I also been using ebookrenta.com which is leading me to bankruptcy lol.
I did the calculations; discounting doujinshi (they make up a LARGE amt of yaoi listed, and they are usually only one chapter. There are 2688 completed (approx) and approx 1296 unfinished. I would venture to guess that many of the finished are quite old (1990s). Bottom line...there over one thousand unfinished! That's ALOT.
Cool beans.
So very many yaoi manga are incomplete, many with just one or two chapters and those chapters are highly rated, but then we are left with nothing; no updates. I've gotten to the point of being fearful of reading any new offerings, scared of being left hanging. There are sooooo many (I dare say 75% of the yaoi manga are incomplete. I may turn it into a data project and actually count it all.) are incomplete. It really, really is frustrating. I've taken note of which groups actually finish projects and will only read their stuff. Are scanlation groups that fickle, or irresponsible. I thank them for their effort, but PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF A YAOI GOD, FOLLOW THROUGH ON PROJECTS. IT IS SO DAMN AGGRAVATING.
