I guess I should keep this thread alive xD

@EineKrone I never read Onani Master Kurosawa, so sadly I can't help you there.

@Ceph23 I don't read much horror but I will recommend Shiki (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=15089) which is not exactly scary, but the slow build up of a scary and unsettling environment is definitely worth a look (don't know a way to check the ln version, but both the manga and anime aren't too bad). The will also recommend Doubt (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=18068) which is a more typical survival game.

@Lonach Can you give a more exact idea of what you are looking for? Searching Action+Adventure+Comedy on mangaupdates pulls up 509 results (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html ... perpage=50). I could easily recommend stuff off of those 509 pieces, but I was wondering if you had something particular you are looking for. D.Gray-man is also known for many things, so curious about what exactly you liked about it.

I actually would not recommend Doubt. Honestly, the plot feels forced towards the end.

I probably have to agree with you a bit on the plot side of doubt, but I am not sure what he is looking for, so I might as well give it.

Well, I really don't have any specific criteria other than I would rather read about medieval warriors than modern soldiers if that helps in any way..

I haven't checked it out yet but I'll get to it. (Also thanks for the recommendations ^_^)
The ones I'd recommend are Ibitsu or Uzumaki. Both have horror and indeed indeed bloody. (I'd suggest Uzumaki if you're into the whole twisting body parts thing)

@Lonach, Sorry I keep forgetting about you.

I guess for now, I will just go down the mangaupdates chart I linked and see what you like. If you think you can narrow it down some more, I'll fix my suggestions based on that.

1/2 Prince (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=27841)
12 Beast (http://www.mangaupdates.co m/series.html?id=93892)
Aspirin (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6666)
Black Cat (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=241)
Blazer Driver (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=25977)
Busou Renkin (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=340)
Chrno Crusade (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=246)
Crimson Grave (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=11248)
Double Arts (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=26485)

I'll stop here. I am going to guess that not all of these will appeal to you, but I am pretty sure at least some will.

have you read Uzumaki? And the author also has other works on the same way, quite strong*/mindfarker.(only read uzumaki tough, not on my priority right now)
Or School Mermaid, which is on my list, looks fun. On a disturbing sense(if dis description is accurate)

*for my levels. I love psychological terror, doesn't mean my mind takes it well. Like a drug...
I'm weak ¬¬



@topic
Any trap love around here? Read Prunus Girl, Himitsu no Akuma-chan, Amahara-kun...
As a mini review:

Prunus Girl: Aikawa is best grill, loved the teasing and art. Mundane made awesome was common, entertaining but I wouldn't read if wanting somenthing more serious.
Himitsu no Akuma-chan: LEEEEEEEWD. That's the word. Read it for the fanservicey succubi(inccubi?) and the amazing art, we need 3d inccubi ASAP ._.
Amahara-kun: read it for teh lulz. In the end i couldn't decide if I would report him as a sexual harasser, or pat him for helping people with their weaknesses. with their innocence as payment

Fun overall '-'
no hate pls lawl

I'm new in the manga world so I haven't read much I used to watch only anime until my likes began to change drastically (serious/different stuff!!! [?]) and was "forced" to read manga/ VN (I still hate read......books). I'm looking for manga with Heavy/ Controversial/ Dark plot (Genres: Seinen/ Psychological/ Tragedy/ Action) and/or a romance manga not so childish and with limited comedy unless is adult humor :D (Genres: Romance/ Seinen/ Josei/ Shoujo/ Gender Bender/ Tragedy).

Not Yaoi or Yuri unless is somehow related to the plot (Shin Sekai Yori anime reference).
If the manga is super underground, controversial, serious or have a cult then is welcome :D (not yaoi......maybe yuri :? ).
I'm very hardhead when I look for a manga to read I can't just read light stuff except for shoujo/ josei but that is because they are new for me and for that reason and didn't mention shonen :oops:

Reference Mangas:

Monster
IS - Otoko demo Onna demo Nai Sei
3 am Dangerous Zone
Bokura no Kiseki
Tower of God
20th/ 21st Century Boys (pending)
Balance Policy
Namida Usagi ~Seifuku no Kataomoi~
Death Sweeper
Kimi no Knife
Onani Master Kurosawa

Thanks beforehand :)

Thanks for the recommendations :oops: and deadbeat thanks for the Until Death Do Us Part manga I began to read it some time ago but forget about it because I didn't write the name down in a notebook in which I have the mangas or series that I'm watching/reading but somehow I forgot about it I guess because it was late and I was dead tired and that frustrated me but when I saw the name it came instantly to my mind and of course I will read Akame ga KILL! :)

Can anyone recommend me any good seinen sci fi or horror manga (for my summer break)
When I mean horror I don't mean fruity horror moe . I can't think of any at the moment but this list will sort of help with the taste of art style I enjoy:

Parasyte
Gantz
Litchi Hikari Club
Claymore
Berserk
Emerging


Or anything that resembles Shintaro Kago's art style

Btooom! is a pretty good sci-fi manga, a bit similar to the Hunger Games (sorry for non-manga analogy), although its updates take forever. If you like Parasyte and Gantz, a similar manga to that is Zetman. The style and amount of gore and nudity is about the same :)
One of my favorite short manga is called Life is Money. Not necessarily sci-fi, but very psychological. Another short manga I know is called Goth. It's not sci-fi either, and is rather short, but it's something to remember :)

Noblesse (it's a manhwa, though)
Orange Marmalade (also a manhwa, and like Noblesse, about vampires; both are completely different however)
Parasyte (a little on the graphic side but definitely makes you think about life, it's also complete)
One Piece (I'm serious, you get everything from it: comedy, tragedy, action, suspense)
A Certain Scientific Railgun (I say Railgun, not Index, because I feel it has a better MC, and this one will get you thinking about life)
Yotsubato (this is one of best slice of life out there)
Ansatsu Kyoushitsu (school life of outcasts + teacher with tentacles, quite interesting and unique)
Rosario + Vampire (both seasons, except the second is less lighthearted and does a good job confronting complications between inner and outer Moka)

Most of these series are already well known so I hope there's at least one you haven't read yet.

Have you ever read Dragon Head?!? If not that's one of my most favorite psychological horror mangas it makes you think about life and fear. And it's one of those mangas that you don't want to stop reading! (Especially the first arc!!!!!)

There are actually a lot of "slice of life" + "drama" manga out there.. However, most of them are shojo. "School life" can also be considered a sub-genre of "slice of life."
As for physical editions (I'm assuming that means published-in-English volumes), I know you can find series such as Skip Beat, Fruits Basket, The Wallflower, and Oreimo in bookstores and libraries.

Among those series I know, I can only recommend Fruits Basket because it is a must read regardless of whatever gender you are or whatever genres you are into..

If you have trouble finding manga of those genres, I can suggest that you find an online website that provides free scanlations of manga and use the tags "slice of life" and "drama to filter your search down and choose a series you may be interested in. Chances are, they'll be a physical edition of it.

My Heart is Beating (Manhwa) / Annarasumanara (Manhwa)/ 3 Level Combination (Manhwa) / A Lollypop or a Bullet.

Thouth I can't assure you that you will rush through them and get "impacted" the same way I did with those 4. :3

I'm looking for something like Zero (Manhwa) or Ruler of the Land, something like badass protagonist has a badass family (lol) and badass power(s) and some romance too. It can be a Manga or Manhwa, but if possible pls let it has at least 50 chapters (i don't like it too short), the longer the better. And pls no Naruto or Bleach or DBZ or something that is way too popular, so much that i know the story already.

Looking For...

Sentient Mecha (at least sentient 50% of all times) + Any genre (especially fantasy & romance (not between mechas :/ (0.000000000000000000001% only will have), but plz no extreme violence and pervert-related)

Anyone here who knows? And plz no "Doraemon", not that KAWAII sentient cat robot, lel.

I copied from "Anime Suggestion Thread", because it is a bit similar, lel.

DoraBase? It's not "really" Doraemon, but more like a spin-off of it about Baseball.

I realize that this is already two weeks old, but I think you should give 'Pluto' by Naoki Urasawa a try. It's sort of a remake of an older Astro Boy story with the main character position shifted to another robot than Atom, but absolutely worth the read.

Any particular time you're looking for? The ones I can spontaneously think of are Historie (Ancient Greece, ongoing), Vagabond (Sengoku Era, ongoing) and Vinland Saga (Vikings, ongoing).
Billy Bat has some historical elements as well, though gets more in the Sci-Fi direction as it progresses.

I've been meaning to read Vinland Saga, and the others sound interesting, so I'll give those a shot!

As far as preferred region/period, European history prior to the 20th century is preferred but I'm open to more. I've been reading Wolfsmund and Emma lately but that's about it, so thank you for the suggestions!

Why is the Anime thread so much more active? Manga needs some love.
Welcome to the NHK's manga adaptation is probably my most favorite of the various incarnations. Really hits home, although nowhere near as close as Oyasumi Punpun.
If you want some shonen historical, then Kingdom's always a good place to start. Things like Nobanagun are also out there, but I hope you like mechs.

In that case, I am looking for manga similar to Nichijou. I am holding off on reading it for couple months after watching the anime (because I like to forget and be surprised again), but would like some slapstick comedy reads in the meanwhile. I've read/am reading School Rumble, Azumanga Daioh, and Aho Girl, so series like that, too, are welcome.

I think the general population consists of more anime watchers than manga readers, which could explain the lack of activity..
(but yes I am aware that many do both)

Not asking for a suggestion. I read this manga long time ago but forget the title.

Here's the synopsis:
There was an elementary school student who is a pianist. One day he/she found a piano in the forest and tried to play it. No sound came out of it. Then he met a child his/her age and that child could play the piano brilliantly. But when he/she let that child play with a normal piano, he played very poorly.

Anyone knows what I'm talking about? Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso reminded me of this one.

Honestly though, I'm having a very rough time trying to find anything new or interesting that I might have passed on quite a while ago so I might as well be the first to do a recommendation request.

What genre I'm after:
Action-ish minus the adventure boringness unless it's actually compelling.

What I'm looking for:
Something along the lines of Shingeki no Kyojin.

What I've read before:
Just going to skim through a few titles I've read/currently reading -
  1. Ares
  2. Berserk
  3. Claymore
  4. Id
  5. Shin Angyo Onshi
  6. Superior
  7. Übel Blatt
  8. Vagabond

i watched the series of melancholy of haruhi suzumiya, thought it was gr8, read the manga knockoff, the melancholy of suzumiya haruhi-chan

couldnt return back to the normal series

the manga series was entertaining, gave lots of laughs and above all, i love how the haruhi in haruhi-chan is more haruhi than the real haruhi.

would have preffered haruhi-chans character development in the real series

I just notice that I'm out of manga to read and I got a hard time finding some manga suited to my taste (not literally).
So here I am needing for suggestions.

Genre: Mainly Comedy. (mixed with any of these: romance, school, fantasy, harem, drama)
Example: The World God Only Knows, Heavens Lost Property

Note: the manga series should be completed

Thanks guys and have a great day.

It has everything you're looking for, except for the fantasy, unless you count video game fantasy.

jomil_charge: Just curious, why do you care about completion? If you are in it for the comedy, just read as is. It is not like jokes change after completion (admittedly jokes like those in Hayate are time sensitive, so reading them as they come is fairly helpful)

Not asking for a suggestion. I read this manga long time ago but forget the title.

Here's the synopsis:
There was an elementary school student who is a pianist. One day he/she found a piano in the forest and tried to play it. No sound came out of it. Then he met a child his/her age and that child could play the piano brilliantly. But when he/she let that child play with a normal piano, he played very poorly.

Anyone knows what I'm talking about? Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso reminded me of this one.
That sounds like Piano no Mori you just described.

Personally, I've not read it yet. I have only watched half of the movie adaptation.

I read Nisekoi, Yumekui Merry and Gokukoku no Brynhildr at the moment.
I read these mangas in english, and I'm french, so I take the time. xD
If you have some manga like the three I mentioned, I'll read it. :)

I highly recomment Nanatsu no Taizai.

It is an action, fantasy, adventure type Manga & Anime!
It's really similar to One piece in terms of "looking for nakama"
I really enjoy Animes/mangas that involve finding bad ass friends as the story progresses. (im looking for some suggestions)
I'd go over the more mainstream animes like parasyte and tokyo ghoul but everyone knows that.

Ohhh and Psyren (Action, Fantasy) is a good manga, good enough for me to buy volume 1-13 of the books at Anime North 2014 :P

Can someone reccomend me a good josei manga? Would be nice if it incoporates the psychological genre too.

"Thou Shalt Not Die". You can read it online on Rekka-Alexiel's drakengard-3 blog.
Also consider the other mangas she has translated like "Shi Ni Itaru Aka" and "Utaihime Five".

Hello there!
Want to read something light with comedy,but without those ecchi things. For example, Our Demon King Doesn't Bite and Daily Lives of High School Boys

Just to help me a little more, what type of humor are you looking for, and are you looking for no ecchi, or the near absence of female characters?
I technically could recomment anything from Tonari no Seki-kun to something more moe like Yuru Yuri, to slapstick like Gintama, or something really dark like Overlord.... (there is also the satirical Mudazumo Naki Kaikaku), so please give me something to narrow things down.

IMO Ecchi has always been one of the strong points manga has over anime.
-Censorship is considerably less confrontational. Also generally no need to contort around being broadcast friendly.
and
-Plots feel less forced in manga since it is ~5 mins or so every month/week/whatever rather than 20 mins a weeks. A storyless manga is much more bearable than a storyless anime. Look at DxD this season, you can tell where manga chapters start and finish.

looking for a manga.

what I'm looking for //

cute shoujo manga ><. that or a very suspenseful manga that leaves me hanging for more at the end of the chapter. I would definitely like nice art but if it's a really good plot then art doesn't really matter.

mangas along the lines of //

Horimiya , Akatsuki no Yona , Shokugeki no Soma , Aoharu x Kikanju , Hadi Girl , Last Game , Nisekoi , Kimi ni Todoke , Mairunovich , and so on :)

-- thanks in advance

Try Skip Beat and Chihayafuru. Although admittedly I'm not much of a manga fan.
Their anime adaptions are excellent too.

I'm usually not at all excited about Live-action stuff, But I am interested in seeing the Live-action Chihayafuru movie

Hey :D

I'm kinda new here, but i had to answer this :P

I can really recommend you many Mangas, but these are my favorites (excluding your examples) :

  • -Gakuen Alice
    -Ao Haru ride
    -Akuma to love song
    -Hirunaka no Ryuusei <3
    -Tonari no Atashi
    -Taiyou ne le
    -Ookami Shoujo to kuro ouji <3
    -Kamisama Hajimemashita
    -Kyou no Kira Kun
    -L-DK <3
    -Kyou Koi Wa Hajimemasu
    -Heroine
    -Ojousama wa Oyomesama
    -Sugar Soldier
    -Boku no Hatsukoi o Kimi ni Sasagu

And also there is soredemo sekai wa utsukushii, but atm I only watched the Anime and i loved it, and I think the Manga is just as good as the Anime!!


I enjoyed all of them, and in my opinion most of them got a great art :3 (because mostly i can't stand childish art types, it was difficult at the beginning with Gakuen Alice but the story gets so good and i oversaw that.)

I hope I could help you a bit :)
