Which manga company do you like the most?
As for me I love Tokyo Pop, but also Comics One has come great titles as well. I have never read anything by viz but they do a great job for videos and such.

Im pretty satisfied with tokyopop, cmx, viz, and del rey but cmx im little dissapointed with the censoring stuff
Tokyopop is too localized. The quality of their manga pales in comparison to the manga of Del-ray... in more ways than one. I especially like the feel of a Del-Ray manga. The pages are nice and crisp, the binding is (mostly) well done, and the translation notes at the back are a welcome bonus. Tokyopop on the other hand... well, I'm not saying they're bad. I just prefer Del Ray, but I still buy Tokyopop mangas. It's just a little weird when you're reading Love Hina and they make a reference to American Pie.
Tokyopop, Viz, CMX, CPM, ADV, Delrey are all nice. I don't really care as long as they have the title I want :)
Del Ray is top of my list... and Tokyopop's second... VIZ did a poor job on Hana Kimi =\ i don't really like them now..

Tokyopop and viz they make my favorite manga
I have to admit I'm a sucker for Shoujo manga, so my all-time fave is Tokyopop for all their shoujo goodness~!

i just noticed that most of my manga's are from tokyopop, but i also like ADV and ComicOne, they do some pretty good work on translation...though for ComicOne they do mostly Chinese comics, and sometimes they don't do such as good job as i have the chinese comics, and the english doesn't match up or is off. but over all they do decent work.
tokyo pop and Delrey are mai favoritez and i like all of them so yeah. dmp is awesome too i like the paper lol and the cover is kewlz
I loved ADV manga for releasing much more manga that wasn't exceedingly popular (Aria, More Starlight to Your Heart, etc), until I found out they cut the last 2 volumes of Steel Angel Kurumi. Up to volume 9, STOP. What's that all about? It's hardly as if they can pass it off as an ending either! I mean, nothing was explained, and there's a big "CONTINUED IN VOLUME 10" in the bottom corner of the last 2 pages!
Oh, and they've stopped producing Aria, too. They're stupid for doing that especially since the Anime's due to be released soon. I hope Kozue Amano doesn't give them the license to continue producing her manga.
I think they might have stopped producing Chrono Crusade, too. Another 2-volume miss off. I certainly hope they haven't though, stupid company.
ADV's DVDs are fantastic, but the manga is absolutely rubbish... not in translation or application, but in the production stages. The worst thing is that they don't even tell the readers.. surely the readers are the most important thing in the business?
I'm thinking of writing a complaint via e-mail over the entire Steel Angel Kurumi thing though.. you can hardly even find the manga online anymore now, either.
I guess my favourite is Tokyopop.. I've got a lot of Tokyopop manga, and they do a fantastic job on both release dates and translating. *clings to Pita-Ten*

It's hard for me to say which one is the best... But I'd have to say Tokyopop; Most of my manga comes from their company. And recently, when they said that they would license Loveless, I was happy to call them my favorite. (Which is due out in January xD)
Anyway, I also notice typos and a few other little tid bits. They don't usually cut out too much, from what I've noticed. Their release dates aren't that bad, either. (In my opinion.) Not too much of a gap.
Viz is the exact opposite for me, I never really liked the company. Slow releases, not that good of quality.

ADV or Darkhourse. ADV seem to be the only company that still print colour pages now.
It use to be Tokyopop but then I read Pita Ten, recently I haven't been brave enough to go near their releases incase they edit it as much as they have done. I'm dreading Loveless and Legal Drug.

Viz has many good and popular animes like Naruto, Inuyasha, and Bleach. Moreover their prices are cheaper than Tokyopop and others.
However, one of the new manga company i like is BeBeauty. They mostly have yaoi manga. It is pretty good. However, I think it is a little expensive.

I'd say del ray is the best. they do nice translations and they put A LOT of notes..well not a lot. but a good amount of translator notes. they are doing a great job on tsubasa and holic (and gseed). tokyo pop is pretty good too and they got some pretty good titles... bad thing is, theyre both the more expensive ones. i also like broccili..broccllii..?...ah whatever that vegetable. i dont know why, but their paper is just AWESOME. ..sorry. haha..not much of a reason to like a company. but still nice =DD
i strongly..STRONGLY dislike viz even though theyre nice and cheap. i'm unhappy with the way they translated everything in naruto. every time i pick up a volume, my eye starts twitching uncontrollably. but we cant help how they translate things. and bleach..well i just bought the japanese volumes. but they do license some nice stuff..so gotta give them props for that. its probably the only reason why i would get stuff from them. (lets just hope they dont screw up death note -crosses fingers-)
