For an hour stay, the cost is generally about $4 US, while a short 10 minute stay (for checking E-mail ) is available for as little as 50 cents. Some manga cafés even offer a service where one can rest the night (11:30 to 6:00) for the equivalent of $13. In April 2006, a man was arrested for living in a manga cafe for 34 days without paying. {Link without Title} CRITICISMS Recently, there have been complaints from Manga companies that say manga cafés are unfair. No Royalties are generally paid, and a single Manga or Graphic Novel can be read by as many as 100 people. The Profits go directly to the proprieters rather than the manga distributors themselves. Cafés such as GeraGera (see link below) are competing with companies like Kinko's for quick E-mail and Internet service. REFERENCES
