Anyone else buy manga but never read it?

Machine-translated from Traditional Chinese

I have a bad habit... Every time I go to Sino Centre or go online and see manga I want to read, I buy it, but after I get home I put it on the bookshelf, and then... nothing.

Right now, the unread manga on my shelf at least includes:
- "Dorohedoro" full set — bought on recommendation, still sealed to this day
- "20th Century Boys" — bought three years ago
- "Real" — waiting to complete the set before reading (and then waiting turns into years)
- "Naoki Urasawa's Short Story Collection"

In total, that's about fifty-plus volumes... Anyone else have this habit of "collecting manga instead of reading it"?

You should watch Dorohedoro soon! It's really amazing! The dark fantasy world-building is one of a kind. It would be such a waste not to watch it.

+1 I have this problem too, the speed at which I buy books is always faster than the speed at which I read them 😅

LOL~ I have a whole row of manga that I haven't even unwrapped yet. I'm so excited when I buy them, but once I get home, I'm too lazy to read them 😂

Same here! I've had a complete set of "NANA" sitting on my bookshelf for five years and still haven't finished reading it. Every time I think about taking it out to read, I get distracted by something new.

Dorohedoro is really worth watching; the world-building is so unique, don't let the series go to waste.

20th Century Boys is a true masterpiece, you should read it soon! You'll regret it if you don't.

I know that feeling; every time I go to Sino Centre, I can't help myself, and now my bookshelf is overflowing...

It's the same for me with light novels... I have rows of unopened novels on my bookshelf. I buy them whenever I see a new release, but my reading speed can never keep up with my buying speed.

Fifty-something unread books is actually not that many; I have over a hundred at home that are still in their original packaging 😂 Buying books and reading books are two completely different things.

Are you calling me? 😂 I have so many comics at home that I've rented a mini-storage unit... but at least a third of them haven't been read yet. "Buying" and "reading" are two completely independent activities.

Is "Real" any good? I've been thinking about buying it, but I'm worried it might be boring...
