How do the number of reads work on mangago? What does the k stand for? Why is it behind numbers like 74000? Wouldn't be just 74k? Sorry I'm just confused.

    K means thousand
    So 74k people have viewed/read that manga but I kinda feel like the numbers are made up

    More like the views go up each time someone read a chapter. That's probable why the most viewed mangas are the ones with the most chapters.
    Imagine 1000 people read 1 chapter per updates. If the mangas has 74 chapters, there will eventually be 74000 views. This example doesn't even take in count the people who keep coming back to re-read the story or so.
    That's why oneshots doesn't have that much views.
    At least, I think that's how it works. And seeing which ones are first in the most viewed, it's not surprising. Finder, Killing Stalking or BJ Alex firsts is more than probable.
    Look at the views for KS and the number of people who voted:
    21811 people voted x 67 chapters out = 1 461 337 views
    That's for registered people. Add those who read it without an account (I think their views are taken in count too), those who didn't give notes or dropped it in the middle of the story, and those who came back to re-read the story, I think it's probable.

    Thank you. I was wondering how they did the math for this also.
