Until earlier this year I never gave manga much of a chance. Aside from following the Naruto manga weekly, reading half of the DN manga and reading 3 Berserk volumes, I hadn't bothered with it.
What started me getting into it was eBay. I'm a bargain hunter and, after getting bored with the lack of anime bargains, I started checking out the manga section. I picked up Vol. 1-11 of Maison Ikkoku for about £10, Naruto Vol. 1-3 for £5, Vol. 1-6 of Bleach for £11 and Vol. 1-8 of Chobits for £15-18. It was then, when I started reading manga away from my PC screen for the first time, that I started to view manga as more than just the blueprints for anime.
I now own 2x Viz box sets and something like 100 other volumes.
