I don't see how reading manga on an E-ink ereader, with one page filling the screen and "turning" pages by pressing the right side, is fundamentally different from reading it in "analog" (paper) form.

I wouldn't want to read it on a non E-ink screen, or have to scroll within a single page though.

Parent probably was referring to reading it on a laptop or similar, which many people do. (I also read it this way).

I use the SimpleComic reader on OSX, first removing the menu and then fullscreening it. This requires me to download the manga beforehand. It works for me since I don't read that much manga.

Now that I have an ipad I wonder how well it could work.
