Nice.

anyone else read this?
back when Rumiko knew how to make mangas
>>116612185
Akira is equally as detailed as Berserk and Blame. Every page had intricate backgrounds and character nuance.
Between this and Yatsubato.
It's Dorohedoro, bitches.
>>116612363
>>116612185
Except the art is the only good thing about Blame.
Plot is incomprehensible, besides a few basic point
>>116612848
Don't forget about the faces too

>sundome
>O.M. Kurosawa
>>116613793
inb4 the obligatory Kurosawa hate post mentioning how overrated the manga is on /a/ because some people can't understand why a bunch of former edgy loner kids have such an easy time relating to a manga about an edgy loner kid
>>116610988
ITT: bait
>>116613556
Greatest Romance in Shonen.
>>116612770
I haven't read it in forever.
>>116614008
I wasn't edgy but I still could relate to him, I'm sure most of /a/ was able to relate to him, heck remember /a/ when OMK was still ongoing?
>>116610988
This or Pluto.
There are a lot of other series i loved and think are great manga, but in the end i'm a sucker for sci-fi, and that's quite underrepresented lately.
Even though it's only 10 chapters in, Cupid no Itazura Nijidama is pretty close to this for me. The state of it's translation kills me though, it gets picked up again once every year or two for one chapter and then dropped again. What hurts more is translation stopped at literally the worst point.
>>116612848
the plot is clear as day if you aren't retarded
Great rec thread,not that i'm complaing though
>>116610988I haven't read a lot of manga
>>116610988
>>116614486
>Pluto
>not Monster
It's not sci-fi but ..
Thinly-veiled rec thread.
>>116617299
Damn I really need to catch up on this. I guess shit starting to go down.
>>116616945
Bullshit, the times are not comprehensible.
>>116618773
best punpun
>>116618773
Why can't there be a coming of age story where the MC straight up kills himself in the end instead.
Call me edgy if you want but a fair number of people actually do that in real life. It is unrealistic to not have this scenario play out in a manga at least once.
>>116619552
Himizu
>>116619794
Thanks for the spoiler, dick.
Just kidding I will give it a read.
The Violinist of Hameln.
>>116619552
Suicide would have been too good an ending for Punpun. Living is harder than dying, especially if "living" entails putting up with some needy selfish bitch and helping her raise another man's kid.
Are storytime threads still dead? Does it still take ages to dump a chapter, /a/? I was thinking of dumping a manga.
>>116610988
Nice recommendation thread
>>116620427
Nice bump.
>>116613556
sasuke a coolest
>>116618551
That's okay, because later you get to segments like the elevator ride and the hollow void that used to be Jupiter and it's a big moment when you realize the scale of time Killy's been at it.
>>116620028
Oh man, I remember downloading manga from MangaReactor using emule when I was in middle school, and I still have it in my old computer.
It's probably the oldest thing in my backlog. Someday, man. Someday...
>>116610988
I love this shit so much, it took the position of favorite manga, unseating berserk.
>>116620787
Duke Hyou was such a beast, he didn't need any fancy titles to kick ass.
>>116621042
>>116620787
The plot gets a bit stale afterKoizumi beats Hitler, though.It isn't necessarily bed, but it's a bit lacking IMO.
>>116612713
Is that homunculus?
Shit nigga, gotta finish that shit
ITT: Pretty good taste
It was good before it went 2edgy4me
>>116610988When Bitch mom steals a city and makes her own kingdom. I'm hoping shin gets to decapitate her
Parte 6: Vento Aureo
Definitely my favorite stands in Part 6.
Might not be the but definitely the most intense and enjoyable manga I've ever read.
>>116621676
Fuck me, "How are y'all liking the new arc" Comes before the spoiler
>>116612485
0/10 story
10/10 accurate portrayal of everyday life of poorfags in japan.
>>116621656
Shamo was edgy from the moment he bites his rapist's dick off in the 2nd chapter.
Good manga nonetheless
>>116618395
it did the berserker

>>116621471
yes you do you're missing out
I never read anything better than Steel Ball Run
Ryuuko, best yandere ever
>>116622034
I read til the first crossdessing.
>>116622364
>Inugami never ravaged that pussy
probably this
>>116610988
>>116621656
What, shamo has always been edgyness incarnate, that's the main reason you like it
Are you saying is better right now with the waifu and the sister dog and the retarded brother? Because fuck no, i want that shit to end and for my edgy to come back
Based Fuuga
most memorable for me
The backgroung are magnificent.
The best
Not best but my favorite
Worthy every single volume. All 99 of them.
>>116620028
Fuck yeah, good to see this mentioned for once.
>>116612277
This. Such a comfy manga.
when I finished it I just sat there for like a half hour not doing anything.
So good.

>>116624424
Ironically, it was /a/ who show me this Manga, it's been a while since that.
>>116625000

>>116624100
brofist
this manga breaks my heart
>>116625456
what did you think of the ending?
>>116625456
Shigurui is amazing, I really wish more of Yamaguchis stuff was translated
Just finished it, what a ride
>>116625577
I actually loved it, the anticlimax made their rivalry so bitter and meaningless. It really fit the depraved existential nature of the book.
>>116625624
Same, I really would love it if someone translated his weirdly homoerotic Journey to the West.
20th Century Boys
>>116625833
Nice taste amigo, just finished that about a month ago.
Here's one of mine
>>116625833
That's great.Did you cry?
>>116625833
Ah shit, 10/10 tastes. My favorite manga easy.
>>116626023
I felt the same way.
>>116626119
I wonder what happens if Onizuka meet Kitano, i mean, would Onizuka figure out that he is a very nice person or he will snap out and chase him?
>>116626207
No, but my heart is at peace after reading it, never felt so comfy
The strongest manga of all time
>>116612151
Good taste
>>116626434
Onizuka's really good at reading people and he's not scared of anything, so they'd probably end up friends. I want this in a spinoff now.
Karakuri Circus. Hands down.
>>116612038
Well done.
>>116617374
Nothing wrong with that.
KnJ, Berserk and Welcome to the NHK are my top 3.
Honorable mention:
Tonnura-san
I still want the anime remade based on the manga and animated by like... Bones or I.G.
>>116623764
>>116626446
Your taste isstrong
>>116612277
>>116624682
Such a great ending too.
>>116610988
I am a sucker for this author...
>>116614514
>The greatest manga you have ever read
>10 chapters in
nice
>>116625265
Innocent is great
>>116627240
it is great, so why are you reading the badly scanned version?
>>116627129
yup. I broke after about four years and went over the raws. It's pretty easy to understand the themes/story the author was going for. Just made me want to see it translated more though.
Will I really need to read online now that fmd doesn't work anymore?
Isn't there any alternative?
>>116623935
The best taste right here
>>116628097
I'll never understand /a/'s dislike for online readers. The only noticeable difference is the occasional watermark. And they're so small and in the corner that it doesn't really matter.
>>116628193
No loading times and possibility of reading it anywhere and anytime.
I just enjoy it more.
>>116628193
Compression artifacts, resizing, missing pages, chapters, page lag - even with preloaders.
>>116628097
FMD works for me.
>>116628537
I can't grab the list from Batoto
>>116628609

That's not how that goes.

eden: its an endless world
best ever
>>116629438
I read this a while ago but it was2deep4me
>>116629510
Definitely best manger by asano too... literally I pick up on new things every time I read it.
Fuck all this edgemaster bullshit.
This is the greatest manga every made.
>>116629942
every made
>>116627056
I thought this started out great and I enjoyed the romance with the literary girl but then it just kind of fizzled out. I felt that nothing was resolved and the ending was rushed.
>>116629997
yes, I fucked up
Still true tho.
Greatest what-the-hell-am-I-reading manga ever. Can't beat old school camp.
>>116630048
I would be inclined to agree, anon.Aria holds a softer spot in my heart though
>>116630096
Isn't there a random guy standing alongside in the nearby pages?
>>116630030
This but the whole second part is pretty poop
A truly great first half though
>>116630178
Children of the Sea was awesome Igarashi is such a great mangaka.
>>116621807
you know nuffin
>>116630146
Aria is indeed fantastic and a damn fine pick.
Still Yotsubato is not only great manga but a cultural icon. it's hard to find a better representative of /a/
>>116612770
Does she finally get better?
>>116630344
Is Azuma dead or why are there no new chapters anymore?
>>116612185
I would read this if it weren't for that every character looks like they have downs
>>116629643
glad to see good taste
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JI3XsMQ9vM
>>116628767
SEEEEEOOOOOOO
>>116621703
I hope you are trolling. This shit is unreadable.
>>116630855
Not that anon, but I'm reading part 5 now and it's pretty fun. Just got to King Crimson. What the fuck.Part 4 is my favorite so far
>>116622488
He had the chance but instead he died a virgin.
>>116625833
great shit, love both densetsu and kyou kara. Never really found another series quite like them, there's just a certain kind of warm, fuzzy charm they have
>>116630927
I wonder why people complain about King Krimson but perfectly content with shit like Man in the Mirror.
>>116620037
>that feel when g gives you nothing
>>116628793
This nigga knows what's up.
>>116631553
Aw yiss
>>116610988
Nozoki x Ana(or something like it)
>>116632750
I loved the hell out of this. The only way I would change it is to make it even crazier, if that's even possible.
>>116622364
God I miss that semen demon, so fucking horny through the entire manga.
tian kui best god
You already know~
>>116624057
well done, you are correct.
TFW: stops at Chapter 10 out of 50 chapters
>>116633459
People always tell me that the live action was better.
I like plenty of manga quite a lot, but a lot of them have some glaring flaw that keeps me from naming it my favorite. I think dorohedoro's crime of being just too broad in scope is the lesser of the evils, so there you have it.
>>116610988
Monster
>>116633524
It is better, the manga is still amazing though.
>>116633522
I didn't even know this was translated at all. It would be cool to read some more Kawaguchi manga.
:3
>>116612151
It's hard to find a manga that had a better written ending. The entire final part is pure poetry.
>>116633866
Fuck, the ending withAkagi's deathwas spoiled for me; how much will that ruin the ending for me?
>>116634007
Not much since they pretty much spell it out immediately in the final part. As for everything before the final part, it means almost nothing.
>>116613173
Fucking this
>>116634007
It was spoiled to me as well, but that didn't stop it from hitting me like a truck. Go for it.
>>116634007
>>116634290
Alright, thanks guys.
>>116614486
My issue was the ending. It defeats the purpose of what he learned, made his growth pointless, and he became like his asshole father who he hated.
>>116634007
That doesn't happen though. He becomes an astronaut.
>>116634149
>>116634356
Meant to reply to you as well.
>>116628529
Palepoli is great. Give Obrigado a read if you haven't. Not 4koma but they both have a similar absurd comedy vibe.
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou, Aria and Yotsubato! are the whole trinity of manga.
>>116635053
*holy trinity
>>116621042
man i miss Duke Hyou
him and Ouki were my favorites
>>116630096
I read Fourteen earlier last year. It was by far the most bizarre thing I've ever read. Makes Ito and Kago look like mainstream stuff.
I still can't tell if it was supposed to be a comedy or a horror manga, though.
>>116626119
I miss GTO.
>>116610988
Yotsubato
>>116612277
I didnt like ykk. the plot and the setting had so much going for it, but in the end nothing happened. such wasted potential.
Probably battle angel alita or GTO.
>>116635370
>I didnt like ykk. the plot and the setting had so much going for it, but in the end nothing happened. such wasted potential.
That's a really fucking stupid opinion.
>>116635475
Well thanks I guess?
This is my favorite manga, easily. And this was my favorite chapter, which was not in the anime.
I loved Aria so much. I also loved other similar series such as YKK, Yotsuba, My Girl, SoreMachi.
>>116635370
I think YKK's ending was great.
It's really depressing because everything feels dead, a lot of time has passed and I was a bit mad to see Alpha staying in her cafe all alone. But then, nope, she's still enjoying new experiences and at the last page it'sfucking Kokone welcomehoming her. They're living together and it made my heart melt.
>>116631126
We'll see how it continues. Easily has the potential to be my favorite of everything I've read so far.
>>116630734
>tfw we will never get an anime
>>116635218
Neither. It's just trolling.
>>116635777
I loved YKK. The scene where Alpha--I think it was Alpha--gets hugged and was clutching a pistol ready to kill said A LOT about the world that was otherwise left unsaid. It just seemed like an extremely dark tone in an otherwise light hearted manga.
Also, for content. The World is Mine. It's such a difficult thing to read, but so worth it.
>>116624057
Agreed. Man I really need to re-read.
>>116632944
brilliant manga
For Kushana alone.
>>116635765
>My favorite manga
>Reads it on mangafox
>>116637195
Maybe he was just googling a quick image to post for it?
>>116637269
His favorite chapter of his favorite manga and he doesn't even have it stored?
>>116637195
I don't use online readers, I just looked it up in there to grab the picture fast, rather than downloading a volume or looking for my external HDD, in which I keep my manga.
>>116637034
Didn't expect to like every single character in this manga, but I did.
>>116637331
I keep like a dozen images of my favourite manga in an easy to access folder. Disgrace.
>>116628799
This part made me so fucking angry Idropped it shortly afterwards
Everything has already been posted, so here's a surprisingly good sports manga.
>>116637785
Did someone say good sports manga?
>>116637933
I'm not into sports but I love a good sports manga.
>>116634617
Isn't the point of Planetes in both the anime and manga that there are people who do not change? They are challenged in their beliefs, but hold to them for better or worse?
Tanabe in the Anime kind of exemplifies that, where as Hachi in the manga does.
>>116636254
To me, YKK had a lot of mysterious, depressing undertones. Alpha and her pals were like the last rays of light before the sun finally set on humanity.
It makes me feel comfy, but also a bit lonely.
>>116623628
It was so much better than I thought Fuuga could be. Are there any other Fuuga series that reach this high water mark?
>>116638234
YKK is really the perfect balance between happiness and depression. I think it demonstrate how one can find beauty in everything, even in a slowly dying world. Alpha is so human it hurts me.
>>116637785
I'll calling pasta rice is my favorite sports manga. The first couple volumes have a shit translation, though, so consider watching like half of the anime or something.
>>116635818
Not good enough.
Atmosphere is decent, but it's not really realistic or has high artistic merit.
Story is good, of course.
>>116638418
That image is terrible quality.
>>116638541
True, but it's just a random page. I don't really keep a best pages folder or anything like that. Which is why I just grab a random pic from mangareader.
I really liked The Lucifer and Biscuit hammer ... it was really sappy in the end, but I like sappy.
It was at the forefront of the deluge of "I want to destroy the world" mangas, which on average I hate ... but I didn't mind it here.
I don't read that much manga sadly
>>116639000
Neither does the rest of /a/ for some reason
>>116638418
I like pasta rice quite a bit, but man is the last arc kinda shit.
>>116639000
Apparently they made a new manga recently.
>>116612277
>>116624682
>>116627024
>>116635370
YKK was comfy as fuck, but reading it made me unreasonably angry
>going quietly into that good night: the Manga
Full fucking retard. If it didn't make me mad, it'd have made me depressed. I prefer my mad, thankyouverymuch.
>>116634007
They spoiled the death of Kurosawa for me too.
That just completely ruined the manga for me
>>116639501He's not dead.
>>116639175
Anime or manga? I liked the manga one, though I read that a while ago so my memory is fuzzy. I remember being quite pumped when I finished reading it.
I hate how Viz released it left-to-right
>>116639543
Isn't there a new Kurosawa manga? Is it a direct continuation, side story, prequel?
>>116639660
To be slightly fair, it was done years ago. And Tezuka reads alright right to left or left to right generally. Other manga, not so much. Blame is especially jarring and BotI as well. You can feel it slanted the other way.
>>116639697
Direct continuation, I believe.
>>116626580
>Karakuri Circus
Did this ever complete? I remember it being on hiatus or just being plain untranslated for years..
I think it might be this.
>>116639500
>being angry when you read a manga about finding beauty even in a dying world
It was really optimistic in the end.
>>116639905
Scans were just stalled. It got picked back up this year.
>>116639910
Autism-chan is pretty cute. I'll read the manga sometime.
Best Hero manga. Accept no substitutes.
Literally the greatest manga ever.
>>116639654
Manga. It had them on a TV show or some shit. It's been a while since I read it also, but I remember disliking the final arc right up until the very end.
>>116640107
Not unless you post ONE.
>>116617512
I LOVE Monster
>>116640220
I believe the TV show arc was the anime original ending. They were filming some shitty sentai movie.
In the manga I remember Tamaki and her team got rekt in the first round by the best kendoka in the country so she sat the fuck down and watched the best girls fight in the final.
>>116613556
Still a better love story than Twilight.
>>116620427
Let's be honest here, this much like OPT are rec threads, and everyone who says, "But I can troll in OPT threads by posting good pages from bad series" is just horribly deluding themselves into thinking their actions change anything, or that there won't be some people who actually enjoy the things they think the are "trolling" with
>>116621714
Is this gantz?
>>116623764
Why does no one ever post the double page full black (with very small haha text) from Soul Eater?
>>116640569
They weren't always around, and people really didn't post sauce. On the other hand, people have been casually talking about manga for ages. It's more like an excuse so that the anime population doesn't give a shit because of the false dichotomy. On the other hand OPT threads are mostly just shit anyways.
>>116640216
Overrated shit.
>>116640715
>A lot of people like it, therefore it's shit
>>116640715
>muh meme
>>116640715
I still find it hard to believe some guy got banned for posting this.
>>116640806

>Urasawafags in a nutshell.
By the way, 20th century boys and Pluto is shit too.
>>116627125
Did this ever actually end? I stopped reading it after the hiatus
>>116641013
Nice opinion. Monster is still a masterpiece.
>>116641013
I haven't read any of those actually, including Monster. Don't know why you even quoted me.
>>116639938
>even in a dying world
The world isn't dying. Just humanity. Why doesn't this make you angry?
>>116641013
nice meme friend
>>116641094
I don't think the author has put a new chapter in the last 5 years, since she got sick.
She put like two chapters of some other manga, and that's about all she's done in 5 fucking years. Got to feel for her, she must have been really fucking sick.
>>116641138
Humanity dying is sad, but everything must come to an end someday. I find it beautiful that even in that particularily harsh setting, people can find beauty, in the very simple things of life. I wish I could be more like that too.
This thread reminds me that past all the shitposting and waifus, /a/ has good taste.
>>116630293
best taste
>>116630485
>>116633357
I don't know if I would call either of those the best I've ever read, but I certainly don't think worse of you for picking them.
