IMO Punpun is a masterpiece, don't care about what other people think because I think reading Oyasumi Punpun is an extremely intimate and subjective experience.

Comfiest manga I've ever read. Almost made me cry a couple times.
For fucks sake, this rec thread is not even thinly veiled.
>>120469325
all who deny pic related are uninformed or trolling
>>120472015
Most manga threads are rec threads
>>120471882
And thread ruined
>>120471843
It really is amazing how much emotion was packed into such a tiny manga.
Also the art is vulgar as hell, not even lewd, just explicit.
>>120472063
>implying it wasn't ruined the moment punpun was posted.
Do you guys use some kind of program to read manga?
I made a script that starts feh at a specific index to mimic bookmarks but it still requires me to update the index manually when I stop reading.
>>120469325
Solanin > Punpun.
As much as the latter is pretty damn good.
Nurutu xDDD
>>120472161

It's a solid manga throughout the entire 65 chapters and my only complaint is that the battles were too short.
OP here, thanks for all these recommendations!
Weird, everyone on /v/ says that /a/ is against recomenndation threads hmm....
Unfinished masterpiece
>>120472440

the last ten years have been shit.
>>120470020
>Overrated.
>Punpun
Opinions are totally divided for that manga (even between supposed Asano Inio fans). You can't call something overrated when there's a lot of people who call it shit even if it's for retarded reasons.
>>120472690
Most people that call it shit are just contrarians and try to troll.
The few readers who actually have a bad impression about the manga are far outweighted by the rabid fans who call it literally the best manga to ever exist.
Best manga ever made. If you read it, read the physical version. It looks way better than these low res scans
>>120471777
Your trips and my opinion agree with you. There's people who can only see the "edgy" aspects of Punpun but lack the sensitivity to appreciate it (only talking about the narrative, plot and character development, if you can't appreciate the visual part then you're clearly retarded). And I'm not even calling their taste shitit for their lack of sensitivity, btw.
>>120471967
Already on my backlog. I've only heard good things about it so far.
>>120472813
>mfw physical release is all printed with classy sepia effect
>>120473015
now we're talkin
>>120472971
It was very good. But I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.
>>120471967
This nigger.
>>120469392
This nigger too.
>>120473190
>It was very good
Not even that.
>>120473190
>>120472971
The hentai was the ending we desired, this was rushed and over dramatic.
>>120472971
Not after everything was solved with a fucking movie. This arc killed the manga.
Berserk?
>>120473386
>ruining good art
Kill yourself, cancer.
This chapter specifically was fucking great.
>>120473386
There's so much wrong with this image I don't know where to start.
If Devilman is not in your top 5 manga of all time then get out of /a/.
>>120469462
Another top 5 contender.
>>120473415
>>120473467
The beauty of shitposting is when it isn't obvious anymore wether it was a troll or an actual retard.
I don't know you faggots are even posting Berserk. It stopped being great, but still good, a long time ago.
pic related is a masterpiece
>>120473661
That sounds strangely philosophical.
>>120473771
I don't know why you faggots*
>>120473661
Shitposting is a art.
Still one of the most unique and enjoyable series I've ever read.
>>120472813
>mfw my library had all of it
>>120473487
sauce?
Just a harmless, fun, coming-of-age story, right?WRONGSO VERYFUCKINGWRONG
>>120472690
How about the mangaka completely cheaping out on the art,basically using photos as backgrounds because he/she/it is too lazy to draw them.
>>120473927Spirit Circle
>>120473987
Are you blind?
>>120473478
As much as I hated the 2nd last chapter I thouroughly enjoyed Aku No Hana.
>>120471843
Which one is this? I can't seem to find. I must be retarded.
>>120474021
Are you? Most of the backgrounds are trased pictures.
>>120473987
Who cares? I'm just disapppointed to see that all the characters were psychopaths.
>>120474021
>He actually thinks Asano draws his backgrounds
Only gets better the more times I reread it.
>>120473987
>cheaping out on the art
It's just another technique. It looks like shit if you don't know how to use it. Still doesn't make his drawing style, character design and panel composition any less than good. He's top level and you know it, even if you don't like using shooped photos for the backgrounds.
>he/she/it
That's some bullshit he threw around during one interview without even suspecting people were going to take sersiously.
>>120473015
sourch?
Obviously.
>inb4 shonenshit
>>120473494
this manga is at times unbelievably silly, but it felt really classic nonetheless
it started off really as nothing special but then slowly went from a goofy old shounen into an incredibly heavy seinen
I can only really give it a 7/10 over all but that ending good lord
what about Molester Man /a/?
>>120474319
Last arc takes a bit of a dip, but agreed. Too bad about 14 Days being such shit and Kamen Teacher being only decent.
>>120474218
I'll never respect any mangaka who uses pictures to get around putting efford into the art of his/her work.Disagree or not,i don't give a fuck.
>>120474336
I liked rapeman better.
>>120474385
>>120474319
>not the prequel
I keep seeing good things about Gunnm but the only scans are old mirrored official scans.
Is it still worth reading? or can I find some high quality scanlations?

But its nothing like Eva.
Far better than Azumanga.
>>120474419
>>120474451
Is the manga any good? Watched the OVAs a shitload years ago and remember loving it (I was into shonen and cheap adgy back then though).
>>120474580
i enjoyed my time reading it.
For me it's a masterpiece.
at least i like to think so.
The only reason you people like punpun is because main character is a bird. Replace with an actual human and you lose all charm and end up with a manga that goes dark for the sake of it.
>>120474580
It's a classic and definitely have some great ideas/parts, but it's plenty of stupid shit too.
And i mean that leaving alone the whole deal with the ending being rushed as fuck, then LO and now the newest serie (which i don't think anybody gives a shit about, i saw a thread only for the first chapter and then never again).
>>120474666
How did he fuck up LG's ending that much? If it wasn't for the last two shitty games and that Akiyama/Nao's relationship got a closure, it could've been a masterpiece.
Most of my picks have already been mentioned, so I'm going to mention the best manga I've read in 2014. I just love it, from the art to the characters and the story.
Re has been extremely disappointing thus far and I honestly don't care if it goes to shit. The original will probably be in my top favorites.
>>120474331
Anyone have the page of Satan dancing or Hitler growing his mustache from another of Go Nagai's works?
>>120474680
>implying I don't like other human characters like Seki
I could relate with punpun for almost all manga and still get why he does what he does, I don't just because he's a bird
>>120474451
guess I'll deal with reading a manga from left to right
gonna throw me the fuck off though
>>120474565
Azumanga was a 6/10
Yotsuba is an easy 9-10 depending on your tastes
>>120474858
Isn't Seki the kid who almost killed someone for a bit of money? Shit's edgy.
The uncle, or Punpun's friend are more human characters than the rest of the cast.
>>120473963
Picked it up thinking it was going to be young boys living on a desolated Earth, under ruins and all.
But fuck me if i wasn't surprised after it turned into druglords, rape, cyborgs, boipussy rape, despair in every chapter and quantum physics.
Had a great pace, though. Not the best thing around but a very enjoyable read.
Typical Hiroki Endo, always toying with my heart.
>>120474565
a perfect feel good manga
>>120472517
That ending man, that ending
>>120474957
Baka!

This could've gone to places
>>120474415
>>120474385
Was GTO Shonan 14 Days anything to write home about? That and paradise lost is all I have left.
>>120475018
>>120474482
the whore had it coming
>>120475075
It's decent. There are a few good ideas here and here but the author fucked up by having Shonan's characters not doing shit. It's too much like GTO.
Paradise Lost is good but there are only 17 chapters now iirc.
>>120473467
Agreed, Berserk is nowhere near a masterpiece.
>>120475089
>9
>>120475267
What's wrong with Golden Age/Conviction?
Tackled the original's writing faults and far surpasses the anime it reimagined.
>>120469392
Kurosawa and Ten are the best answers
>>120475327
>>120474645
Is this even gonna finish some day? love it, btw.
>>120475315
Nothing, but it's lows have to be considered as well as its highs when it comes to being thought of as a masterpiece.
My favorite sports manga.
>>120472491
>bad eva copy
Not really. Obviously the premise is similar to Eva's, but it deals with the characters in totally different ways - Eva's about the characters' depression and needs, and Bokurano's about the characters confronting death and moral responsibility.
>>120475502
First 20-25 vols are nearly perfect
The last 10 are kinda meh except for this scene. I think it'll get good again when they get off the boat.
>>120474935
>Isn't Seki the kid who almost killed someone for a bit of money? Shit's edgy.
Yeah, who would ever want to kill another human being for money lol absolutely unrealistic.
>>120472224
this has gotta be a fucking joke, enjoy your shitty guitarist melodrama with a lackluster ending. punpun was a masterpiece, I dont care if you read solanin first, its still second to punpun.
>>120475658
Not a kid. Especially not for so little when the risk is clearly there. He was all like "I don't give a fuck" before and after the act, as if it wasn't something serious.
>>120472517
What's this from?Pls no bully
>>120475535
I still say it's one of the most well detailed manga ever, but not necessarily saying it has the best art. It's great. That last match is intense as fuck.
>>120469392
>>120472333
Agreed.
Pic related is wonderful, can't think of much to say bad about it. Slam Dunk could've been a masterpiece if it wasn't for the bad beginning. The last few games of the series are some of the best manga I've read.
Does punpun have an official english release?
that manga with a loli kiling pedophiles
>That story

Best JoJo part
>>120470155
saucebro?
>>120470155
That fucking art, man. Interesting story too. A really great little manga
>>120475886
I thought it introduced each characters very well, and liked the delinquency part of it.
>>120472063
What's wrong with gantz?
>>120476053
It introduced the characters well but I just didn't enjoy reading it until they started playing games. It seemed like typical shounen stuff. I wish he became less focused on the girl and more on basketball earlier in the series.
>>120475724
notice that he can't actually do it and his act is a front
>>120472159
Why does /a/ have a problem with punpun? I never really got that far into it but it wasn't THAT bad now was it?
>>120475818
I reread the whole last match as soon as i finished the manga.
>>120475886
I didn't think the beginning was bad at all except for Sakuragi being annoying, but it adds to his character considering how he grows up
>>120476036
what is it called though, image to large for a google search
this is great.
>>120475936
Every part is great, just some are better than others. SBR is the true masterpiece, though, objectively.
Also this
>>120473011
Not the poster you replied to, but it's amazing. Had it on my backlog for ages as well, really glad I read it.
>>120473487
Yes, Spirit Circle is great. Definitely my favorite from Mizukami. The arcs have had ridiculously touching endings up until now.
I'd like to submit Planetes as well. Apparently, some anons watched it together because moot said he liked the anime, but the manga is definitely worth reading as well. While I felt the story kind of peaked after volume 3, with Hachimaki speaking to the cat in space, the volume 4 chapters were nice. This one, in particular, was crushing.
>>120476174
>I wish he became less focused on the girl and more on basketball earlier in the series.
You have to keep in mind, not a lot of time passed in the actual series.
>>120476218
Kokou no Hito
>>120476187
He never drops the front and he almost does it. He stopped because of a completely random thing, meaning that he could've done it without much difficulty. I'm sorry, but the combination is just too big. "i don't give a fuck" look + kid + being an inch away to murder someone for just a bit of money. At least if he didn't approach the guy at all, it would've been believeable.
We're talking about a manga where the MC asks his love interest to gouge his eye with a fork and yells at her for not doing it thoroughly. How is it not edgy?
>>120476281
All JoJo parts are great, but 7 is just perfect
>>120476333
thanks m8
>>120476363
Great, but kinda repetitive
>>120476301

>no one posting Kaiji
Come on.
>>120476196
Got too popular forcertain faggots around here that are supposed to hate popualr things
>>120476458
I feel like it's really lacking compared to his other works. Nothing has happened so far, just teasers. Still want it to continue, though.
Daily reminder that there are no masterpieces, be it either manga or anime, only things that come close to it
And I go with Berserk, Vagabond and pic related
>>120476612
What is a masterpiece then?
Now that people are scanlating Takahashi Yousuke's stuff, some of his stuff might be pretty high-tier. Apparently he's considered a treasure by some noteworthy mangaka.
http://youtu.be/sfKi8PCSL5k
>>120476338
1. just because he acts like he doesn't give a fuck about anything doesn't mean he doesn't actually give a fuck about anything. see shimuzu (that's that one kid's name right? i don't remember haven't read it in a while)
2. yeah I dunno dude is losing his fucking mind, the whole thing is about how mentally unstable he is, I don't think that's necessarily edgy. It handles the themes that it introduces pretty well very consistently. It definitely isn't not grimdark or whatever, but that doesn't make it poorly written or executed.
>>120476612
I always wanted to read Blame!, but i get so confused reading the manga. I just don't know what's happening
Don't know about masterpieces but this was really good
>>120476612
Mah nigger. Feel like pic related had a really rushed ending.
>>120476713
The author could've shown him acting more human. I don't care when you're not supposed to empathize with the character but it's the case in Punpun.
Losing his mind or not, first it's a really stupid choice for both Aiko and him (for obvious reasons), and he shouldnt have been able to talk after getting his eye stabbed by a fork.
>>120476723
It's about a guy trying to recover his lost WiFi password.Me neither, actually
Nice edgy pseudo-philosophical garbage there, couldn't expect any less from /a/. A masterpiece is a work that perfectly encapsulates what makes a genre great and makes everything else a little worse by comparison.
This is next level fujoshi bait.
>Every character is a psychopath
>Cult story that carry on for the majority of the manga that had little impact on the main story arc
>>120476458
We had threads about it before it went on hiatus. Not much point in talking about it now, considering that we're sitting on so little material.
>>120476595
I'm digging the slow buildup. The setup is there for some major happening in the future. I hope we get new chapters soon.
>>120476595
It's slated as "Slice of life", doubt anything drastic is going to happen. I just like love the art and character interactions. + The unique world they're in
>>120476951
>A masterpiece is a work that perfectly encapsulates what makes a genre great and makes everything else a little worse by comparison.
That's your definition of masterpiece. Maybe people just have diferent opinions, y'know
Masterpiece.
>>120469325
Why the fuckd id she have to die?
>>120477145
I can't be the only one who thinks she didn't die. Way I saw it when punpun dumped her there with the kid she woke up and wandered off, abandoning him.
I understand that on /a/ it can come off as redundant meme material but this is seriously the one comic I've been waiting for my entire life. And I think it's one of the best portraits of millenial children.
I hope it gets a satisfying ending.
>>120476980
in an interview Asano said Pegasus actually saved the world doing what he did
>>120476857
of course it was a stupid thing to do, he coerced her to do it and he's mentally unstable. Also it's fiction, and at its roots it is totally absurd. Did you miss the whole thing with how the cult functions and just about everything that happens before hand? It isn't supposed to be necessarily realistic.
>>120477212
Pretty sure you are.
>>120476980
Pegasus wasn't a psychopath. He was an actual hero.
>>120477227
My point is that this scene was unecessary. I loved the uncle scenes, I loved Punpun's development at some point and the side characters were great but it was too edgy for me sometimes, especially near the end.
>>120477224
Watamote was great, but really hard to read at some points. That's what made it even more great IMO
Obvious one
Does anyone know where to get past chapter 30 translated? It pains me that I haven't been able to finish it
>>120477342
Yeah I can see where you're coming from. At the end it just sort of escalates to a ridiculous degree, especially the very end where he kills his perception of god or whatever it is that happens. I still think it's really great.
>>120476951
Except that's not what masterpiece is. You're free to interpret it like that, but that's not a strict definition of a masterpiece. So fuck off with your pseudo-elitist garbage. You think it makes you an elitist, all it makes you is a humongous faggot.
>Nice edgy pseudo-philosophical garbage
Stop you don't have the knowledge required to use those words.
>>120477212
>>120477325
I thought that too until I realized I was lying to myself. The aftermath clearly showed she was dead and he fucking scarred those kids.
>>120476980
>>120477332
He was genuinely enlightened and not crazy. I thought there was a different meaning behind what he was doing, but he simply was the hero in the shadows.
>>120477472
The first part was better
>>120472333

>>120477732
The ending was terrible
You know, I've always wondered. What is manga criticism like in Japan? Is there any actual intellectual discourse surrounding it, or is it trash like what the West has for rock music and video games?
>>120477732
I've seen the live action movie adaptation and they were fairly interesting, but left me with a bad aftertaste. I don't imagine the manga being all that better.
>>120475886
>if it wasn't for the bad beginning

>>120477573

>>120477810
No I just didn't like Sakuragi. I didn't like the whole doing it to get the girl thing, though it was funny at some points. I liked it better when it focused on the games regardless of who was doing what.
Shame on you anons for not posting this
>>120477793
I don't know but whenever I read an interview with a mangaka, even the shit ones, they can all get quite technical and/or philosophical about it.
>>120478121
Cool. Do you have any examples on hand?
20th CB is my favourite Urasawa because it feels the least like an aping of Tezuka and yet still a very personal story from him but it does get too convoluted to be a masterpiece. And yeah the ending is shit.
>>120478296
Yes. The ending was kinda anti-climatic
>>120471967
This so hard.
>>120476241
I agree, but it really dropped the ball since that weird europe thing with the chapel
>>120472971
If he had died, maybe.
>>120473487
It's just good at the moment, it has potential, but it's a long way till his other running series too.
>>120473771
I like Eden, but it's not an Masterpiece, got a really good beginning but it got lost midway through the story and never got as good as the beginning again.
>>120473881
It's not finished yet.
>>120475535
Shit ending. I can't abide for a sport series that end with the protagonist getting fucked up, also the lack of depth on the sport and low number of matches hardly make it the cut as a good sport series.
>>120476241
It's great in some parts, but shallow in other. I greatly enjoy it, but it's not an masterpiece as of now, there's a lot to go through though.
>>120476824
H2 is better as sport, Touch is better at drama.
>>120477085
SEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOO
>>120477224
I guess if you count it's aim to make me cringe and making me do that almost every chapter, certainly.
>>120477405
Yeah.
>>120478076
Too much comedic and exaggerated faces in the manga, lack of real development between the main couple.

What is Azuma even doing now? We've had like 3 chapters since 2012
>>120478480
Lack of depth in slam dunk is fine I think. I don't want a super serious play by play analysis with realistic basketball. If I wanted that I could just watch the NBA. Which reminds, really sucks about Jennings getting injured. Can't believe the Pistons comeback gets ruined by a season ending injury.

>>120478976
Watching this as listening to Weather Report. It fits well
>>120476723
To put it simple, he is after humans with special genes that grant access to what would be our "internet". In doing so, they have a way to completely wipe the main antagonists of the manga, the silicon life forms (once humans).
I love it because its one of the few sci-fi futuristic mangas out there, same reason why I love Gunnm.
>>120479349
uh. It's sounds interesting

It's amazing how much the mangaka can ruin it with the newest and newest sequels.
>>120472971
Not after that fucking ending, it wasn't.
>>120473279
That hentai doujin was the exact ending we deserved.
>>120473963
Google isn't giving me anything
>>120480633
The authors name is in the thread you lazy fucking retard.
>>120471967
I can not thank you enough, I started reading this years ago and stopped for some stupid reason or other, and couldn't remember enough about it to find it again. I just remember it was amazing.

I don't know what the author did, but the whole thing has this amazing laid back feeling on melancholy.
It's odd, the world is slowly ending in it, but everything feels mildly happy and calming through.
Wish it would get published in english, but that's never going to happen.
>>120480728
thanks bb

>I don't know what the author did, but the whole thing has this amazing laid back feeling on melancholy.
Some people know how to create atmosphere and just strike an emotional chord that resonates perfectly with the readers. Doesn't happen often, but it's a real treat when it does.
>>120474531
that's great when it works and doesn't give you moonspeak
can't any of you take the time to type a title?
>>120476301
>>120476458
I have really high hopes for it, I'm just waiting for it to get at least a little further along. I hate waiting for the next chapter to come.
>>120481076
Toy Story you pleb
>>120480633
I got something with google
Worth every single page.
>>120472011
Was about to post this. Shame /a/ hates baseball.
>>120482268
>/a/ hates baseball.
The homothread loves oofuri
>>120482268
Rookies is God-tier for "Shonen"
I wish /a/ would read this.
>>120482268
I read like one volume of that a few years ago and didn't find it very good. Does it get better/
>>120482469
When they start trusting him, yeah, it gets really interesting. Well done character development and an interesting pace, even though the ending feels a bit rushed.
>>120481757
while the many chapters do sort of feel like the Tao Te Ching of manliness, i'm not convinced every last assassination is vital, in spite of the gorgeous artwork
Honestly, I can't think of another shounen I'd prefer over Kingdom. Maybe Rurouni Kenshin or FMA but Kingdom has been consistently been amazing and continues to impress.
>>120482519
>>120482469
Character development off the fuckin charts!
If anyone here hasn't read this, drop whatever you're doing and get on that shit. Right now.
>>120482633
>>120482519
Hmm I might give it another shot. I only read it because I played baseball till I was 16, didn't give it much of a chance from what I remember.
>>120472440
I found that they had a really unfair advantage.
The enemies had really gimmicky mechas
>>120482268
I hate baseball but loved Rookies
Anybody posted Fuuka yet?
>>120473015
>>120470155
>Such beauty
>Not Hows the serenity
Step up anon.
Also, another masterpiece.
Kiseijuu was top tier
>>120473015
This was awful.
>Post pages of manga
>Not put the fucking name of them
Fucking faggots
>>120476146
Not him but i prefer the earlier artstyle Hiroya had. Gantz had really nice art, such a shame the mangaka went overboard with the CGI in the last arc.
>>120483070
Learn to search, it's not that hard.
I can't believe this hasn't been posted yet. the fuck is wrong with /a/ today.
>>120482734
seconded. it's really good.
it's got that great surreal tone to it that I have never seen in any manga except maybe ranman, Number Five or street of mysteries.
>>120483196
Read the thread.
>>120474565
>>120483196
Oop sctratch that, it has been posted. Good job anon.
You can enjoy Yotsubato regardless of your tastes. I read it early in my days opf reading manga, back when i was all about shounenshit. Still loved it.
>>120474789
I'm a newfriend to the manga as well but nevertheless, TG definitely climbed up my rankings.
>>120482591
except its seinen.
Same shit though.
>>120482980
the first 30-40 chapters were perfect shounen. If it had been done by murata for WSJ from the start like he later did with opm, it would be outselling one piece by now
>>120476146
Aside from the ending, nothing.
>>120483362
First 30-40? I though the second part of the story was really good too, actual character development now.
Also pic unrelated, just Mob being a mob.
>>120483248
Homunculus was good but I wouldn't say it was a masterpiece.
>>120483400
please, it went to shit when they introduced vampires out of nowhere before abandoning that plot out of nowhere
>>120476612
I agree completely. Fair to say that Nihei's work consistently comes pretty close, imo.
>>120483070
I could make a joke about how new you are but I felt the same frustration when I first came to /a/.
Just lurk more, you're gonna get there eventually. I'll give you a little hint - those tiny arrowy things behind the postnumber are there for a reason, so I advise you tocheck' em
>>120483332
Kingdom is shounen in everything but name, with just perhaps more death.
No love for pic related, /a/?
>>120483473
I would
>>120481757
I like Lone Wolf but sometimes it did get really predictable, especially early on. Sometimes Itto goes around like Kenshiro with almost no challenge and no doubt what the outcome will be. Also the artist is really good at drawing different looking men but almost every woman looks the same.
>>120483547
Thats what seinen is..
Also on the shounen masterpieces line. I'd say soul eater manga is as close to that as any other.
>>120483162
>the mangaka went overboard with the CGI in the last arc.
idk, I really liked the last arc and the cg made it kind of a cinematic reading experience which was really fitting.
you should check out one of his early works though, it looks like a total joke because the cg is so crappy. he's come a long way
Well... I might as well post it if no one else will.
>>120483466
actual character development now.
that kind of irritated me. to be honest the manga lost me a bit during the little girl exorcism arch, felt a bit too gloomy imo. but I guess it's a good thing one doesn't stick to formula and tries new things once in a while.
>>120483634
His new manga's digital effects are pretty good, hopefully he gets time to make a decent gantz epilogue in the next year or so.
This was a masterpiece.
>>120481076
Geiger counter
>>120483784
Its better if you read it all at once, it got a bit dull waiting for the basically monthly releases of it.
>>120483553
Looks educational.
>>120483826
I wish there were decent scans for this. past chapter 10 or so it goes to duwang levels of shit.
does it get better again or do you have some secret sauce?
>>120474385
>best girl
You are an okay African.
>>120475334
Good taste anon.
>>120483826
That looks a lot better than the stuff in Gantz. Judging from some of his older stuff it seems like he's always been interested in CG.
>>120484074
The thing is on Batoto the duel page scans are pretty good quality while the single page scans look like shit.
Can't really say on the translations, just glad that some spanishbro translates both languages
>>120478051
You sure you read the fucking manga man? That's exactly what is shown to happen to Sakuragi all the way to the end, his character growth as he very quickly comes to realize that he really fucking loves basketball and its not about the girl, idk what that fuck you're on srsly, its always about the games, just because the girl is there doesn't make it about her.
>>120479943
Good taste detected
i loved the korean berserk
>>120482268
It was okay, decent characters but terrible development. Very good but far from a masterpiece. The ending is also kinda meh.
>>120479989
Can't think of a single flaw to this manga, the only manga I'd truly consider a masterpiece.
>>120484362
Yeah I know he changes, like I said I just wish it happened earlier or didn't happen at all. The manga was great, but I didn't really enjoy the beginning. It's actually one of my favorite manga, but having such an unenjoyable part of the manga for me makes it not a masterpiece.
>No ones posted the best surreal manga of all time.
>>120484496
I really liked Sanctuary, but they do make the same faces just about all the time
>>120473881
If it pulls off a good ending I could easily see it being close to perfect. Fantastic art, premise, story, characters, shit's all good. Slightly confusing but its a mystery so its understandable.
>>120474789
TG got it all. Never tired of it. Perfect balance.
>>120472517
Google isnt working for shit, anyone want to give?
>>120474789
>>120484715
It's mediocre at best, I got bored and dropped it eventually
>>120474666
My amigo, One Outs is underrated as shit, under Liar Game's shadow just because people are afraid of trying sports manga.
