What are your favorite manga?

 

I'm a huge fan of manga. So, I just like to know yours to make sure that I'm not missing anything. :lolita_cheerful:

 

Thanks.

Is there any particular type of manga you like reading?

More on the horror side, I guess some things by Junji Ito especially Gyo, and by others there's Gantz, Hideout and Terra Formers (although i've not caught up and it's not finished, I appreciate the amount of research gone into it). And there's also works by Kago Shintaro

 

Don't know how to describe these, but of things like Oyasumi Punpun and Eden: It's an Endless World. Kind of have melancholic themes runnign through an average persons head. Eden is slightly less 'normal' due to the post-apocalyptic theme.

Don't know if I described these right but yeah > < i'll elaborate if you want when i'm less tired and more eloquent

 

Then there's the shonen-ai section with Let Dai.

Made me cry so much you have no idea, I had to leave it a month before I could finish the last three volumes 

 

I guess bigger ones could include One Piece, Fairy Tail, Claymore and of course, the new star, Toukyou Kushu xD

Theres so many good mangas, so thats kinda difficult for me. Also i dont really like comparing entirely different genres.

 

The first thing that came to my mind is Holyland, though. Reread it quite some times.

There's lots of great ones but I guess some of my faves should be

Death Note
I'll
Nabari no Ou

Spiral: Suiri no Kizuna
Dogs Bullets Carnage

 

 

Considering this one is still ongoing, I'll keep it away from my main list but I've come to really love Tokyo Ghoul. Started Deadman Wonderland and Ajin recently and they seem really promising too.

And I'd forgotten about Ajin!! Definitely need to start that one up again

Lol Naw air gear Manga is amazing, 10x better than the anime with that awful anime only ending that doesn't have anything to do with what happens in the Manga. Plus Ito "OH GREAT" Ogure is an amazing mangaka, can't wait for him start a new project since air gear is over.

Plus air gear has anime Obama! I'm not shitting you, I'm for real.... Some of the most hilarious panels I've seen in a Manga :lol:

I don't read manga for months now, but there's a list of mangas I like:

Gantz (that ending was disappointing, but the whole manga was badass at least XD)

Bleach (I kinda have a emotional connection with it)

Naruto (same as Bleach)

One Piece (actually I only read some volumes of it, I prefer the anime)

Pokémon Adventures (I love Pokémon, and this manga is just perfect till the Silver/Gold/Crystal saga ends)

Dragon Ball (a classic, I started reading it cause a publisher in country is publishing it again. Unfortunately I didn't buy some edition and now I'm stuck with my reading since I don't like online reading anymore... But I'm gonna buy the editions I don't have XD)

Toriko (dude that is insane, I like it)

High School of the Dead (just because I liked the anime and now the Full Color Edition is being published here)

Fairy Tail (so much feels dude)

Air Gear (I still gotta read it to the end, the art is just badass)

Astral Project (the time I read it, was a great thing for me)

Bakuman (fucking loved it)

 

Maybe there are other mangas I like but I don't remember now. 

 

 

air gear manga is so awful D; almost that awful as kenichi. though, AG anime was pretty cool. 

 

Totally the opposite LOL I first read the manga, then I got to watch the anime and only liked the opening theme. BACK-ON is cool~

Eyeshield 21

Gantz

Hunter x Hunter

Detective Conan

Excel Saga (The anime is nowhere near as fun as the manga. The fact that Elgala isn't in it alone is just a travesty.)

Real

Petshop of Horrors

 

I love D.Gray-Man as well, but it's one of the only series that I think actually works better as an anime.

I feel I'm following 50+ series but I don't love mangas as much as before.

My current favorite is Mori Kaoru's A Bride's Story, her talent and patience is incredible.

Also like Shirahama Kamome's Tongari Boushi no Atelier, Ookubo Kei's Arte, because I'm in a warm-shoujo-mangas-without-too-much-romace mood

 

And Shimizu Aki's manga version of Kyogoku Natsuhiko's Hyakkiyakou series. Too bad only one novel in this series has been translated into English.
