Monster Manuel entries are accessed from your quest log if you have the Monster Manuel. Each entry gives basic monster stats, as well as informative factoids related to the monster.

In the quest log, the text is displayed: Monster Manuel You have casually researched x creature<s>.
You have thoroughly researched y creature<s>.
You have exhaustively researched z creature<s>.

The lines about researching only show up if there are any that fit in that category. x creature<s>. (or y or z) lets you show only the monsters that are casually, thoroughly, or exhaustively researched. Filtering out creatures this way shows the following link underneath the exhaustively researched line, showing all creatures researched:

The first factoid is always obtained the first time you defeat an enemy, subsequent factoids can take an increasing number of wins to obtain. Once per ascension monsters and bosses have a flag that causes them to always give a factoid when defeated.

Monsters for which you have acquired 1 factoid are casually researched; 2 factoids are thoroughly researched, and with 3 factoids you have exhaustively researched a given monster.

A page in the Manuel in the Quest Log without any factoids has the text:

Manuel says, "You haven't given me any of these specimens to study yet, amigo. Get out there and explore, okay?"

Manuel Score

In the spirit of the Collector's Score, the Manuel Score is the percentage of total factoids you have collected. For this purpose the figures reported at the top of the Manuel Pages are used.

There are currently a total of 1209 monsters with factoids which can be collected. This gives the maximum number of factoids as 3627. This figure includes monsters counted more than once by the game. It does not count the 6 unobtainable monsters listed below. It also does not count the Drunksgiving monsters, which, although they theoretically could return to the game, will not do so at the earliest until 2052. It does count 5 ancient protector spirits, one of which may be no longer obtainable.

This means, for example, that if you have casually researched 44 monsters, thoroughly researched 58 and exhaustively researched 782, you have collected 2506 factoids for a score of 69.09%.

Unobtainable factoids

No factoids

There are some monsters whose entries are confirmed to have no factoids:

Unkillable

Some monsters are unkillable; however, thanks to a Kolumbus auction, their factoids are available on the wiki. These are:

Duplicate Monsters

Some monsters have more than 1 set of factoids, based on a certain condition. The known monsters that do this (and their conditions) are:

El Vibrato

Separate factoids depending on if the player is wearing an El Vibrato translator or not

Source

Separate factoids depending on if it was from the combat or a non-combat

There are also monsters with the same name, but are different monsters, and so don't classify in the area above.
