Got curious about School-live after watching the anime. Caught up with it just now and it looks like it's going to end soon.
I like the manga lot more and wish the anime had followed it more closely.
What manga are you reading and how do you like it? What do you plan to read?

So, I've been "out of the manga loop" for quite some time now. I basically only follow One Piece, Golden Kamuy and, I guess, Dai Dark these days(or wathever the new Q Hayashida's manga's name is, even though it's only 2 chapters so far so saying I'm "following" it makes little sense). Occasionally I'll read My Hero Academia and One Punch Man, but not like super passionately (in fact, I drift in and out of My Hero Academia, so I usually have like 5-6 chapters buffered to read in one go). I don't even remember why I stopped reading Vinland Saga, which I really liked, but I guess I lost interest? Might come back to it some day. So. . .
. . .Obvious Request Time: Any manga recommendation? I guess the prerequisites would have to be:
1-You consider it to be, at the very very least, good. If it's great or even a must read, then all the better! Bottom line is, I don't need no run of the mill manga. If your general reaction to it is "I guess it's decent", "not a terrible time killer" or "it stars okish, then gets goodish, and then gets okish again", then. . .thanks, but no thanks.
2-Kind of "author oriented" in terms of style/presentation/narrative. Like Taiyo Matsumoto or Daisuke Igarashi level of style, you know, authors with a strong personality doing "different" stuff. This isn't a deal breaker, though; if you're in love with a "regular action shonen" but you truly believe that it's really worth it for x reasons (tons of fun, tons of personality, great characters, great action, etc. . .), yeah, I'd also like to give it a try.
A million thanks in advance!

Here my two cents (I like short stories):
Yoshida Motoi, The Day Before Summer (solid plot, really good narrative, great 'conventional' art, but really really great)
Fuyukawa Tomoko, Nostradamus Love
Takahashi Hiroshi, QP (the classic shounen fight school of life but gooooood!)
Kui Ryoko, Seven Little Sons of the Dragon (Collection of shor stories, some of them are really profound)
All Kaoru Mori series, but the best to me is A Bride's Story, a seinen that portraies customs and ways of love of the C XIX Middle East. Some characters are adorable to death!)
The retired mafia fearsome guy retires and goes the house way, cooking labor. Gokushufudou: The Way of the House Husband is a really on going funny collection of stories based on the idea. The same idea was the plot line of Kubonouchi Eisaku, Chocolate, with the difference that in Chocolate there's real violence and drama mixed with comedy and gooood romance.
Feng Shen Ji a manhua with solid plot, a really good MC, full colored series with nice 'realistic' art.
On the manhwa side, You In-Wan Shin Angio Onshi and Ha Il-Kwon, Annarasumanara
Tsuhara Yamusi, Five Color Boat (superb story, odd art stye)
Okadu Tatsuya, Doll (on the pervy-comedy corner)
Yamakawa Naoto, One More Cup of Coffee is a collection of stories about… coffee. Odd magnificent art style and really nice relaxed read.
Also around Coffee, Ashinano Hitoshi, Yokohama Shopping Blog (if you like Zen and spiritual themes you can have a nice trip here)
… And the best of the best of the best would be Satoshi's Sengoku Youko.
Not reading much manga nowadays here but you remind me I have a debt with Takemitsu Samurai.
-
Holy Shit, Ukimix. I KNEW you'd come to the rescue, but you went all out!
Love it, thanks a lot! Will check as much of these as possible.
I remember starting Sengoku Youko cause I liked Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer (it's from the same guy, right? I'm not imagining things?) and I remember kinda liking it but leaving after a couple chapters, can't quite remember why. If you're praising it that much I guess I have no choice but to give it another go.
Oh, and absolutely. You owe it to yourself to read Takemitsu Samurai (or Zamurai). It's has just the right amount of contemplative, magical realism, folk and, yeah, samurai action. And it's hands down the best art Matsumoto's ever done. I think you'll like it!
Thanks again!

I would definitely recommend Promised Neverland. Starts out great and stays pretty consistently great, and it's anything but run-of-the-mill. I'm not totally sure what you mean by author-oriented. I mean, I guess it's not super stylized, but it's still very much its own thing. It's certainly not a typical action shonen and is more psychological, you know, if that's your jam. The best way I can describe it is a current-day Death Note.
-
Eyyyyy, Nobodyman beat me to it.
Seconding Neverland.One of my favourite ongoing manga titles right now.
-
I'm not going to bis Ukimix post since we usually agree on the things we like, but I will still recommend Sengoku Youkou, which I consider close from perfection.
In current Jump, my preference goes to Kimetsu, since you search for author with a personal art style, it's definitely worth giving a try. You can also jump on the new title which is Spy family. it's only a matter of time before everybody reads it
Otherwise, i still recommend the titles from my post at the top of this page which are all great
In the cute and heatwarming style, there is
Sunny and Raine
Nicola Traveling Around the Demon’s World
Somali and the Forest Spirit -
Still reading Rookies. And I continue to learn new things about baseball from it. Like foul bunts always count as a strike even if you already have 2 strikes. It's still good but I haven't read a manga as long as it in a while so it feels kind of endless even though I'm more than half through at this point.
-
I like prison school manga and I read this manga at yo manga. This is one of the best manga because this manga story so nice.
-
Finally finished Rookies. The ending was kind of weird. They introduced some consequences but then basically just said that nobody cared enough to enforce them and they were dropped. The next long manga I want to read is Akagi, though I feel like I should learn more about mahjong than I currently know before starting. Will probably read a few shorter manga before starting that though. Started reading Gunsmith Cats a little before I finished Rookies. I like it a lot so far. Will probably go on a Go Nagai binge next since most of his popular stuff (Devilman, Getter, Mazinger) is fairly short.
-
I finished Takemitsu Zamurai. Simply love it, from the start to the end! It's a shame there's no more scans of Eifuju Issei works.
-
I started up Golden Kamuy and i'm loving the manga so far.
I didn't actually know it was this violent but damn if Man Gets Face Torn Off By Bear And Then Kills Bear Anyway isn't some cool shitI am updating it at : https://365manga.net/

Shimeji Simulation (new manga by Girls' Last Tour mangaka) is extremely amazing so far. I just started it like 30 minutes ago. I wanted to read it but am generally not a slice of life person but it's got perfect surreal humor and surrealism in general.

[hide]https://s2.mangadex.org/data/73fc32ce035f5755cf0589b795d2c472/t8.png[/hide]That looks pretty fun. I've heard nothing but good things about Girls Last Tour, so I can imagine this manga being good as well.
So far, I'm enjoying Yomawarai Sensei, despite it being depressing at times, but I love highly detailed manga. Also liking Shin Kurosawa Seikyou Densetsu. The first season of Kurosawa was great, so I'm really looking forward this this one.
Also reading With the Light. I couldn't find scans for the series online, so I had to request the first two volumes at my local library. Sadly, that's all that was available. At first, I thought the manga was just going to be about a mother and her autistic son against the world, but boy am I glad to have given it a fair chance anyway. Sometimes I like stories that can be both realistic and carefully touch on sensitive topics such as autism (I'm an autist too).
-
I plan to begin again Living with one leg. The basic premisa is gorgeous: a vagabond zamurai (a popular archetip)… who only has one leg (haha!!!) So this is the story of a one legged swordsman, a revenge to be taken and a young woman in need of protection. The series is drawn and writen by Nastycat (Trash). Solid storytelling and nice art. There were no free scans up to ch 20 or so, but now the editor who licensed it decided to upload all the chapters to mangadex (lucky me!)
-
I am reading After the Rain manga.This is one of the best manga. This manga story is so nice. I prefer you read this manga.
I read it..it's pretty good

I've heard a lot of good things about Mushishi (mostly the anime but I wanted to read the manga first) so I've been reading that. But the one that's really caught my attention since I've started reading it is called Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou which is about a robot that runs a coffee shop in a somewhat post-apocalyptic (not nuclear wasteland, but it seems like how people keep describing a future caused by unchecked climate change) world. It seemed interesting just by itself but recently (mostly because of Girls' Last Tour) I've been thinking it would be cool for a story to have taking photos be a big part of it and that seems where YKK is going. I don't know how much taking photos is going to part of the manga so far since I'm not that far into it but I really hope that stays as part of the manga. I also really like the art style.

Taking photos plays a small but nice role in the manga (just some few chapters). But the series is one of the best, sure you might like it really much, as well as Mushishi. By the way, Ashinano Hitoshi (YKK's author) wrote a lovely oneshot as a homage to Mushishi, called Shimering of the sea.
I found Lamplight (Tomishi) and I'm very pleased by the visual narrative, which is really high and well excecuted. The art style is similar to Otomo Katsuhiro's one (Akira). Very nice collection of short stories.
-
I ended Spirit Circle by Mitsukami Satoshi (Sengoku Youko). Just a masterpiece to me. I practice spiritual development and just find it very much revealing and an echo of many trues. Sure manga can teach you as well as any science.
-
sigh Of course I start reading Hinomaru Zumou, like, a week before it ends.
It's funny how I enjoy so many sports manga when I rarely watch sports in real life.
-
I imagine most sports anime games are like once in a decade games in real life, if they're even that grounded.
I'm reading Beck and Buddha right now for finished manga. Beck's cool, though the manga format with no sound is both a benefit and a detriment I feel. On the one hand, any music the people making the anime make up might not be as good as what you imagine, but it's still nice to have music in a music series. The only thing I knew about Beck before starting it was one of the scenes from the anime with gratuitous Engrish, so I'll have to at least check out the music playing to see what kind of music they used. Buddha's the second Tezuka manga I've read after Phoenix. It's pretty similar to some of the stuff in Phoenix so it's familiar. Tezuka continues to add comedy that isn't really my thing too just like in Phoenix. I imagine maybe he felt the stories might have been too dark without that humor but quite a bit of it references "modern day" (to when the manga was written) stuff which just takes me out of it. Other than that it's great so far. I wanted to read it because I started and caught up with Houseki no Kuni, which apparently has a lot of Buddhist themes in it and made me interested in looking into stuff about it. Houseki no Kuni is extremely good too. Highly recommended.

Oh. My. God.

Finished Beck. Damn that was a good manga. It was kind of shaky near the beginning but it mostly just kept getting better and better as it went along. Would like an anime that covers the entire thing but having actual music I imagine might ruin the magic. And I haven't watched much of the anime there is but I imagine English being used so much in the manga might be an issue and not really transfer over to the anime (I know that the manga already just puts Japanese in a different font to denote that people are speaking English, outside of actual English here and there). From what I've seen of it though, Ray's English is more like Engrish when he's supposed to be pretty good with English. There's also both American and British English in the series.
Been reading more Tezuka stuff too. I finished Buddha, which is masterpiece tier along with Phoenix, which I'd already read. MW was an interesting edgy thriller and not something I'd have associated with Tezuka when I'd just heard of him having written Astro Boy. Reading Princess Knight right now. It's pretty good, though not as good as I was hoping. Not much of a fan of the boy/girl heart stuff though the idea of a girl needing to pretend to be a boy to be ruler is interesting. I'm sure it was hardly a new thing in the 50s too.

.If you want another music manga, I recommend Blue Giant or Kids on the Slope (which had an anime a few years back)

Last chapter of Yugami-kun is out. Really a nice reading experience, and as one can see on the number of comments, even if Yugami has no friends, he has a lot of fans
-
Reading Kabu no Isaki and Saturn Apartments right now. Kabu no Isaki is fantastic and so far more or less as good as YKK. It's more focused on planes and a world revolving around flying planes in a massive world though, which has its appeal over what goes on in YKK. Saturn Apartments is pretty good too. Not as much a fan of the art style though.

I finished Kabu no Isaki. Not really sure what to make of the last couple of chapters. I'd heard the ending was weird.
! So I get that there was a comparison being drawn between the scooter and the plane. I imagine the world where Isaki owns a scooter at the end is the normal sized world and with the world being scaled up 10 times for most of the story planes were the main mode of travel. It's mostly just about how having a mode of transportation, like a car, or a scooter, or a plane, etc can open up your opportunities and give you more freedom. What I don't really get is the thing with Shiro at the end in the mystery place. I don't think it's supposed to be an "it was all a dream" ending, and Isaki even says that he doesn't think it's a dream and Shiro says that it's real. But I'm not really sure what is supposed to be implied there. Isaki also doesn't seem to know who Shiro is in the last chapter when he sees her. And Shiro tells Isaki that Kajika is his big (where for most of the story she's 12 and he's 16) sister and that she took him to this same place before.
! There's also the whole thing with the airship surveying the Earth's surface and Shiro meets one of those people in the last couple of chapters and she says that they didn't really find anything of note. The whole illusion aspect first seemed to be brought up when Isaki scans the package at Mt. Fuji and it causes some sort of reflection in him of first seeing it earlier in the series. The only thing that really comes to mind is some sort of illusion or hologram stuff going on. And that would kind of fit with the stuff with the airship since it's a classified thing and all. But I can't really form any kind of coherent narrative to tie all of this stuff together. Maybe I'll see if I can find any interpretations people have written up since the manga ended.
Overall great manga and even with the strange ending it doesn't take away from the rest for me and I don't even really dislike the ending. I don't think this mangaka has done any manga for several years now but I hope he does another one at some point. There's still a couple other short manga by him I need to read. -

You should read Shimeji Simulation if you aren't already.
I'm also still reading Saturn Apartments occasionally. It's not something I've felt like binging really.
-
I read rakujitsu no pathos raw manga at mangazuki raws. This is my favorite manga.

I found a fun new little comedy manga. It's called 'Tis Time for "Torture," Princess.
The Hellhorde has captured the Imperial Princess, also commander of the Third Legion, alongside her holy sword Ex. They intend to torture her and make her reveal the empire's secrets. To this end they do heinous things like offer her fresh, warm toast, video games to play, and bubble wrap to pop?
The crazy thing is these "tortures" frequently work, as the Princess quickly succumbs to the various luxuries she's offered because they're all things she never got to try before.

Holy shit what an exciting binge read I just had. Thanks for mentioning it here. The manga delivered exactly the awesomeness I expected reading that description.

The manga City is so amazing at portraying its location as a living, breathing city. Part of it is having so many characters but it's hard to keep track of who's who at times. The last chapter of volume 4 has dozens of characters (maybe every character introduced) doing stuff related to earlier introduced plots across 4 consecutive double page spreads that look like Where's Waldo scenes.

Just started reading Magi
It's okay so far almost 40 chapters in, kind of confused on some stuff but it's fun

I'm looking for a series that is maybe around 150 chapters or so but is completed. Nothing gory, something interesting.
Anyone have any recommendations?

That's quite vague, don't you more precise criterias ? Like genres, themes you like or dislike. Have you read a lot of mangas already or not
Otherwise my number 1 recommendation: Sengoku Yuko, 100 chapters completed. Great fantasy shonen

I don't really have a certain preference. I got really hooked on The Promised Neverland yesterday and completed it.
It's been years, but i've read Yamada and the 7 witches, Attack on Titan, Nisekoi, Love Hina.
By the way, I just watched Kings Game (Ousama Game), I've never seen such a rubbish story and I feel like I've wasted my time.
I'll give Sengoku Yuko a go.
-
Well then maybe you can read some shonen classic like FMA or Hikaru no go
If you want to try a music manga : Beck
Baseball manga : Rookies, Cross Game
More recent : Assassination ClassroomIn seinen, all Urasawa titles are in this range of chapters.
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou if you want a calm slice of life title
A female GTO : Gokusen -

A female GTO : GokusenThis post shows why using chapter count is kind of silly in some circumstances. YKK is 142 chapters but is only 14 volumes and I'm pretty sure the volumes are shorter than standard (its chapters are like 15 pages long, if that). Beck is 103 chapters but is 34 volumes (and long volumes), more than twice as long, because it's chapters are all like 70 pages long. Beck is more like 300+ chapters by normal chapter length standards.

Not too long ago I noticed there was some melodrama on twitter concerning this image.
[hide]
[/hide]I discovered the name of this character was Uzaki-chan, I was curious to see if all the commotion surrounding the character had any merit to it. I never heard of this Uzaki-chan before all the fuss on twitter. I got the impression that the people who were outraged didn't actually know anything about the character and were just jumping to conclusions.
Having caught up with Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai (it's an ongoing series), I can say the uproar over the character was in fact a case of jumping to conclusions.
The chapters are pretty short, so the manga wastes no time establishing the dynamic of the two lead characters Shinichi Sakurai and Hana Uzaki respectively, who are both college students. The manga has an opposites attract angle going on with them. They have opposing personalities that causes them to butt heads constantly, but it's played for laughs and in spite of that they actually manage to get along pretty well. The mangaka seems content to draw out when they'll hook up for as long as possible, the pair were already acquainted with each other prior to being introduced in the first chapter, so the story is about their bond being strengthened rather than having them fall in love. Giving the story a casual atmosphere rather than a sappy romantic one, thankfully. It managed to get a few chuckles out of me on afew occasions. The supporting cast are likeable enough, the story hasn't focused too much on them. They all root for the two leads to get together in their own ways, but they also have decent chemistry with each other which goes a long way in helping the frequent comedic bits land. The artstyle works for this kind of manga, it's minimalistic, which suits a simple story like this fine.
While there are some fan-servicey moments with Hana, they don't happen very often and when they do it's pretty mild. One Piece has had more risqué fan-service over the years in my opinion. Plus, these moments tend to emphasise that the male lead does find his female counterpart attractive, so I think the fan-service here has more of a purpose than to simply be titillating for the reader, usually. The mangaka does find reasons for the male lead Shinichi to go shirtless on more than one occasion too, but the fan-servicey content does lean more towards the female characters. That being said, I think all the controversy surrounding Hana having large breasts was overblown and ignorant. Par for the course I suppose for twitter outrage.
I don't normally partake in slice of life manga, i've only dabbled in it alittle. The only ones i've read in their entirety is Lovely Complex and Angel Densetsu both of which I like well enough, although I prefer the latter over the former. Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai is comparable to those manga in certain respects. All in all, it's an enjoyable light read.

The manga City is so amazing at portraying its location as a living, breathing city.
So I understood this literally and instantly went after it once I finished the first phrase. Soon I realized I got it wrong, but even one page was enough to have me hooked in. First manga of this style I ever read (and I believe Azumanga Daioh was the only similar anime I ever watched), but it is such a good light read.

My #1 manga recommendation to anyone will always be Shin Angyo Onshi. The art is kinda rought on the first 1~2 volumes, though.

Started reading Ouran High School Host Club. It's one of those manga/anime I've known about for quite a while because so many girls in middle and high school talked about it a lot. It's pretty good so far. I really really like Haruhi. The eyes are a bit too big for my tastes though. There was a comment in the first volume by the mangaka about maybe shrinking them a bit so I wonder if that'll happen to any significant extent. Will probably watch the anime at some point too.

I had always seen advertising for it a while ago, it was advertised so much that I didn't want to watch it.But it was really good, there was a lot of good character development and Mob is such a great character.

I haven't been following it at all, and I don't know much about it.But I saw some Discord friends discussing the newest chapter, saying that it was pretty dark.
I have to agree... this was a surprise.https://readedenszero.com/reader/read/edens-zero/en/8/67/page/1
Apparently Mashima isn't playing around with this series. Maybe I'll check it out after all.
