Quality read metrics?
Does anyone have a flowchart of what they look for to decide whether to read/not read something? Or drop something?
Here's some of my categories: Drop if: 1. There is any mention of a 'lazy lifestyle' or similar in the title 2. If there is any mention of the premise of the story mentioning the characters by role (i.e, protagonist, villain, side character) unless the premise is _really_ bat shit crazy 3. If smut/yaoi/yuri - go to the 13th page of 2 random chapters for web comics, 25th page of similar chapter sampling for manga (or eyeball 2 chapters - not the first 2 - for lewd). If there's lewd, the whole thing has a very high likelyhood of being lewd. 4. If non-complete power fantasy or shonen harem, avoid - those things can stretch to infinity 5. If the art is so bad it causes brain damage (has to be specifically cringe, misshapen or overly pretty/gritty/lewd art - I don't mind the art being like Mob Psycho) 6. If the front page needs to be censored from children - that's not for casual reading, that's for horny. 7. If it's one of those yaoi manhwa that's got the comment section frothing at the mouth about non-con 8. If the title otherwise spells out the plot or premise of the plot, especially in first person.
One thing that _does_ work in favor of any work is if it's tagged horror. or fantasy. or supernatural.
1. If the raws r from "ridibooks" then its worth a read
2. if the art style is oily then is guaranteed to be a porno
3. If the art style got just the right amount of color and lighting, then its a manhUa and you ain't gon find any porn
4. if it's a manhUa and its starts with the seme being a big dick, then it's going to be one of the worst shit you...... 1 reply
