What age range is your manga?
 
In general, what age range is the greatest portion of the manga you read?

A/E - Suitable for everyone of all ages. Traditional movie equivalent=G

Y/10+ - Suitable for young children ages 10 and up; still family friendly but may contain more complex subject matter. Traditional movie equivalent=PG

T/13+ - Suitable for teenagers 13 and up. May contain mildly suggestive or offensive content such as jokes about bodily functions, kissing, romance, etc. Traditional movie equivalent=PG-13

OT/16+ - Older teens ages 16 and up. May contain more mature subject matter including violence, death, language and sex. Artwork also likely to be more graphic. Traditional movie equivalent=R

M/18+ - Mature and/or adult content. Could include graphic sex, violence, language and other mature subject matter. Traditional movie equivalent=NC-17 or Mature.

I don't really Judge Manga on its rating, I read mostly OT/ 16+

good idea for a thread :)

Koir 08-23-2008 04:39 AM

The Yen Plus I have is labeled OT (Older Teen). Probably because of the Jack Frost story.

Uriko 08-23-2008 04:43 AM

all of the above.

Yuna7780 08-23-2008 05:10 AM

I have the most OT in my collection. Then it's T, M, A, Y+.

All of my mangas are super romantic-ish, which is my forte. :D.

VampireGirl1314 08-23-2008 05:50 AM

mine is T,OT,and M for mature i read a lot of manga until i run out of manga to read so i go and pick up some that look good i read the back and then read the manga i love Romance manga the most.>^_^<
no one can tell me im too young to read manga and such because its my and my moms choice what i get to read.>_< sometimes she will buy a book and ask me to read it before her to see if its any good.>^_^< im a fast reader.XD

KikiBunny23 08-23-2008 06:31 AM

I really have no idea cus I don;t pay much attention to the ratings...I would go check but I'm terrified at the moment so I won't...though its prolly mainly 13+

GentlePrincessJC 08-23-2008 07:36 AM

"OT" i guess but sometimes i read "M" just depends on whats out. :cool:

LittleFallenAngel 08-23-2008 10:51 AM

mostly OT((R))...
but I also got some T ((pg-13)) here and there.x]

strawberryshinya 08-23-2008 11:16 AM

Mine is usually OT but the rest is pretty random in ratings...but i do have some M rated ones lol but those r yaoi XD

munkeycum 08-23-2008 12:54 PM

Rated M!!!
 
Id say 90% of my manga is rated M and i'd prefer to keep it that way if i may say so myself.

MissMisa 08-23-2008 01:02 PM

Mine are like T/13 I'd say. I don't like anything too rude because most of the time it ain't needed in my opinion.

CrimsonChobit 08-23-2008 01:30 PM

My age ratings are...
 
Probally 16 and up ,But some of my yaois are for adults ((LoL))

Asakura 08-23-2008 05:22 PM

Mine are usually from A/E to OT, I have a couple of M rated ones (Godchild I think) But I do try to steer clear of the smut.

ForeverDreamer 08-24-2008 07:27 PM

usually it's OT and M, but i read all kinds :)

SSJup81 08-25-2008 12:32 AM

I'm going to assume all ages.

Sakura123 08-25-2008 01:31 AM

Most of mine is 16+. I have some "teen" marked series, but for the most part it's "older teen."

Gorotsuki 08-26-2008 12:07 AM

I hate older teen and mature.

allie2590 08-26-2008 12:17 AM

Mostly O/T, but I do have some stuff that is T and M.

Rogozhin 08-26-2008 04:34 AM

I mainly read manga by Weekly Jump so I voted T/13+

(From Australia's POV, it would probably be OT/16+ since censorship is stricter here)

Shoryuken 08-27-2008 12:19 PM

0T/16

Thats what usually falls into my group.

chibichick83 09-05-2008 04:57 PM

Most of my manga series are Teen, and I also have a few Older Teen ones aswell :)

Crani 09-13-2008 09:03 PM

Most of them are 16+, but I also have 18+ and only one 13+ series.

LoneStar 09-25-2008 06:37 PM

T/13+ or OT/16+.
Mostly OT/16+ though.I like it better

xpeed 09-25-2008 08:49 PM

I read anything that interests me. Some are M/A some are for little kids. Anything really.

CarleyGee 09-25-2008 10:07 PM

Some manga I've read before might be for teeangers, but most of it was for all ages. ^_^

TofuuMonkee 09-25-2008 11:02 PM

I read +13 up manga, 16+ manga, and I have also read 18+ manga. I like a wide variety of manga XD

Yeah, exactly. Why? The older manga is closer to reality and easier to relate with.

animelover32 09-26-2008 06:49 PM

OT16+-MA18+. I said OT though. I'll usually any manga that sounds intresting, though all the ones I own are in OT-MA.

Aota 09-26-2008 08:31 PM

It really doesn't matter so long as the art style appeals to me, AND of course, a good storyline.

yummiecakesx 09-26-2008 08:43 PM

i love romance manga to!! My mangas are usually older teens and sometimes falling in the mature levels.
When im looking for manga i do read the back and look at the art.

When i do a manga theres ALWAYS some type of romance!

Most of the time that isn't true, you know. There are some that are close to reality (Worst), some are in between (MPD Psycho) and some just aren't (Gantz), but this happens in all of the age ranges, it doesn't depend on the age range, but in the story.

kiyuga 09-26-2008 09:25 PM

For the most part- OT.......but I also read the really "lame" junky little kid stuff and the explicit adult ones too........I'll read anything I guess.....

yummiecakesx 09-26-2008 09:26 PM

i like any kind no matter the age, but i mostly like only the older stuff.

yummiecakesx 09-26-2008 09:35 PM

its just kid stuff isnt that interesting i guess. theres a few exceptions tho

devils 09-27-2008 04:31 PM

i think mine are mainly OT
I never really pay attention to the rating when I'm buying them - just ends up that way. I'm sure I have a few that are 13+ and all ages as well

QuoyaNatsume 09-27-2008 04:56 PM

I would say as long as it catches my attention it doesn't matter BUT........Now that I look @ it most of them are for 16+

Good Thread idear MMM:cool:

EveV 09-27-2008 05:07 PM

I don't know.
I read some pretty messed up stuff.
I don't even think it has a rating.
But I just clicked 18 or older.
