To do it the legal way, you must purchace each manga volume to read it. Let's say that there are 15 volumes in a series. Each manga volume costs around $10. If you wanted to enjoy that manga series without breaking the law, you'd have to pay $150 to complete one series. ONE SERIES. But that's not including mangas like Naruto that have like, more than 40 volumes in them; then they would cost more than $400.
Have I made my point?

No. Manga costs money, just like other forms of entertainment. By reading it off the Internet or making new books used at the bookstore you are stealing. "It's expensive" is no excuse.
I wish I could drive a Lexus, but I don't. Why? It's expensive. That doesn't give me the excuse to steal one, though.
