If manga was straightforward and affordable, I'd buy it. I am not going to do math to figure out how many chapters I can read at 3-5 keys per chapter, and keys priced differently depending on how many you buy.
-_-
I'm on a limited income, like I can budget for stuff, but I can't be guessing. They are intentionally trying to obfuscate the price so you accidentally pay more than you realized.
I can just buy I video game on steam for $5 and know I'm getting a cute 6hr indie game for about the price of a cup of coffee.
I know exactly what I'm paying and if the game is ass, I can return it before 2 hrs of play time.
A lot of manga is somewhere between mid and mildly interesting. sigh
I'm just bitching. I wish things were different.
