Is it OK to enjoy manga? I recognize that most manga is "immature" in terms of storytelling. Most anime stories are highly clichéd, but I still enjoy a lot of mangas for some reason. It's a guilty pleasure to me, because I feel like I am engaging in a "dumb" activity and I feel stupid for appreciating it.
Shut the fuck up bitch. Make up your own fucking mind. I'm in academia and I just streamed One Punch Man while alt+tabbing between it and fart porn. People can be diverse. Faggot
Studies show that it's healthy for males to enjoy manga once a week to every three days as it decreases your chances of testicular cancer. Any more than that and it can begin to have a negative psychological impact, so beware.
get better taste in manga then

Yeah, manga's mostly dumb. Is it OK to read it? Sure, in small amounts, but if you really have better things to do with your time then you should probably give it up

Oh, and get your iron levels checked if you find yourself gravitating to light novels more often.

Just as long as you're no one of those people who think anime and manga is "deep" and on par with anything else.
Those people are usually shallow and pathetic. Mostly they think that because they've never experienced any real deep thought in their lives and think of that stuff as boring because they can't understand it.
Judging by your post though, you are fine.

Jesus fucking Christ OP, you sure are retarded.
Do you seek validation from strangers on the internet for every choice you make? It's not that difficult, if you find pleasure in an doing an action then continue to do it. Even if you think it's a "dumb" activity, there are benefits of actions that don't require stroking your goddamned ego.

I bet you suck a good dick, OP

It's healthy to have some sort of release. It's like reading Tolkien or something. Is Tolkien incredibly literary? No. Is it fun? I think so.
Being a person that enjoys literature does not preclude enjoyng things that aren't literature.
I went through a period of purchasing manga whenever I could get it locally for around $2. Got a fair bit, but I don't really care for it. Some of the comedy stuff was good, like Yotsuba and Excel Saga.
