picking up a manga after looking at the cover

[Blackangel]

i do this all the time and most of the time, they are okay. the art is good but i have dropped a few before. do you do this too?

I do it sometimes if the manga got weird title or the cover looks interesting but not often. I like taking recommendations first

Weird title like what? I don't pick weird titles but if the art on the cover is good, then all the bets are off for me

Until now, I have never done that. I do go for manga with good titles but I don't choose manga based on just the covers

 

[Blackangel]

if the cover is super hot, i would usually read it just to admire the art and there were times i regretted it but i can't help myself

I try to use the cover as a means of thinning down my choices but then I'll read into what its actually about before I invest anymore time into it.

Yeah. When I am browsing around a good cover is usually what gets my attention first and then the synopsis, if it sounds like an interesting premise I will give it a go.

Cover, genre list, MAL score/popularity, author, seeing if anyone I know have read it (btw, that is very easy to do with MAL statistics page). That is pretty much what I check before deciding to read something. If it were an anime I would also look up screenshots. I never read synopsis, too lazy ^^'
