Where do people hang out and chat about manga?

Post by FuguTabetai »

I generally check noated.com's forums, but they don't really have much traffic in the "General Manga" discussion area...

Anyone know of good places for manga chatter?

I dunno much about IRC chats. I have problems using it here at school.

As for forums, I see you, Fugu, pop up occassionally at many of the forums I peruse. ToriyamaWorld seems to get pretty good traffic and I like MangaDownloads' forum. I wouldn't say there's tons of chatter... until the recent lull the Tenjo Tenge section here had been pretty busy with several posts a day.

I don't frequently visit forums but I think the ones getting most traffic are the forums of the bigger scanslation groups.

Reading fugu's post I realized I don't know any good forums myself. :cry: The only one I visit is this one.

I personally like this forum, but I'm biased.

- http://otaku.jp/bb (This forum does not get a lot of traffic, but it is still one of my favourites because it is where my personal forum is hosted, and I am a mod on the manga board.)

- http://arcticnightfall.com/boards

- http://www.neo-anime.org/forums/

And I also read the forums for almost all scanslation groups, but don't post that much. I visit Noated as well.

Also, if you are familiar with IRC, I have my own channel where I distribute my site's releases and chat with people:

Come chat on #mangareaders @ irc.mircx.com ... we distro most manga that ppl want to serve :)

Good place to chat about manga and learn of new releases. We have a site too www.mangareaders.com (altho it's only a forum atm due to our host being hacked or something)

Other active forums is on Snoopycool... www.snoopycool.com :D

I mostly use IRC to chat about manga nowadays (mostly #akatsuki-manga or #mangaproject), but I used to check out the Naruto Guide and Toriyamaworld forums.
