How fast do you read your manga?

Just wondering how fast people read their manga, cause I think I'm reading too fast

I got up to the latest chapter in 'the world god only knows' (that's 119 chapters) in 3 or 4 nights. It's the first manga I've ever read so much of. am I reading too fast?

if it's in my language, it takes about 40-50 minutes per volume.
In English, I need 2 hours and a dictionary next to me XD

this week i read hunter x hunter chapter 190 till 310 took me about three days reading about 3 - 4 hours each day

i've read Berserk in 4 days (315 Chapters) after trailer 5 came out for the new anime adaptation. worst thing i've ever done now I have nothing to read ;_;

I'll never do this again the best way is probably two chapters per day.

3 or 4 nights?
That seems like a lot of time.
I believe it took my approx. 10 to 11 hours to go through 114 chapters of world god only knows. And I was taking my time reading it.
But everyone reads at their own pace. So why are you even worried about it? It's kind of a stupid question to be honest. If you have a good understanding of the story, whether it be manga, comics or novel that you read then that was the right speed for you. However if you find yourself needing to go back and reread areas to help you understand it then your reading to fast.

Kind of a no-brainer.

A rule of thumb for me, if I'm reading really fast it must be really good

Although with manga I always try to spread the read out a lil more.

1 chapter less than 3 minute, so 100 chapters around 6 hours haha
if the manga interest to my level

No, not really.

I caught up with Kimi no Iru Machi starting at chapter 26 to 100 from 11pm to 4:30am in the morning. No offense, but I think that is still slow especially for a manga as good as TWGOK. lol

When i read "The World God Only Knows" it took me around 12-13h if i remember right to get from first to 100ish chapter. But i usually take my time every page when i read good mangas, so this might count as slow reading for some people.

I can go 100 chapters a night if the manga is good =]
So, no, you're reading the series at a ok speed in my book =P
