i'm reading this now. the first parts are pretty cliche but the art is getting great and it gets a hell of a lot better story-wise as it goes.

the beginning has too much "he's the best just because. oh my god isn't he an amazing climber!", but it definitely starts shying away from that and starts actually showing his shitty life and actual trials he has to endure. it's starts getting a lot darker and presents things a little more maturely. but i'm only around chapter 90 so we'll see.

>>122717977
Yeah that's pretty much what I was expecting from this manga before starting it so I'm not worried about the beginning being shitty, also, can't wait for the art. Is it the same artist tho, if so then that dude fucking improved like hell from the pages I've seen on OPTs.

thx 4 all the recommendations ^^

You can say I have shit taste, and perhaps from some perspectives, you could be right. However, you can't go back in time and take the enjoyment and catharsis I derived from reading it away from me.

I honestly don't care. /a/ does this with all sorts of manga series. They take something positively mediocre and create a hypetrain. Pretty soon, droves of newfags are claiming it's the best manga evar!!!1 and it gets an overblown reputation. It's group mentality at its finest. That enjoyment you enjoyed. It was fake. You enjoyed the atmosphere around you reading Punpun. Not the story itself. You gave in to hype. It's a fucking shit manga.

>>122724061

Hand down best Manga I've ever read, I recommend it to everyone on this board

Punpun was creative and well executed. Unhappy people just hate it because other people they don't like praise it.

ITT = people confusing masterpiece with favorite.

Lmao punpun fags, not even Inio's Magnum Opus.

Which is Nijigahara Holograph.

>anyone who doesn't just nod along with what I say has some sort of problem in their life. I need to believe this because I cannot handle people not just agreeing with my thoughts.

>>122708633
It was good for what it was but I wouldn't consider it a masterpiece.

>>122714661
The War was fucking shit.


>>122717047
Agreed.
Though I wish it ended with how the author wanted with the guy dying at the end like the guy died in real life.
But whatever it's still good.

>>122717553
It's generic on purpose.
Really.

It starts off so fucking cliche and then BAM, it punches you right in the fucking guts and reminds you that real life isn't a fucking shonen and shit just happens.
The first time I read it, it just completely blew me away. I like to believe it was intentional just to fuck with the reader.

File: Ai-ren.jpg (76KB, 728x1061px) Image search: [Google]

76KB, 728x1061px

While I'm recommending things for this thread, I would name Ai-ren for being a near damn masterpiece.

It's fucking amazing when you can make true sadness in every single chapter.
When you can make simple children playing in the yard so fucking sad.

There was some side characters that really didn't need some focus but all those chapters focusing on the children just hurts on such a horrible level.

>>122725126

Why would you do that? Why would you spoil the ending of a manga that you claim to have really enjoyed in a thread where you are replying to people who are in the process of reading it?

I know it's not like it's a brand new ongoing manga, but more than one anon just now said they were x number of chapters in. Why the fuck would you go and reveal a major piece of the ending? Do you not want them to experience it the way you did? At least as far as that part goes, the suspense will be ruined. No "punch in the gut" for them.

Good job.

This is why we have spoiler tags. For exactly this type of thing.

I'm not even annoyed for myself, I've read it.

This was such an insane ride.
It kinda got really fucking stupid with a dickgirl uberstrong subplot that was introduced out of fucking nowhere and then vanished.
And a lot of the whole ''oh my god guys, this guy is so fucking legendary and never defeated before'' aura vanishes depending of the fight.

But goddamn is it near perfect when it wants to be.

It ain't the biggest damn part of the ending.
His survival isn't the important part, it's how broken he is at the end which is the biggest part.

>>122726234
Garou's arc hasn't been drawn yet.
It's just alright with good art at the moment.

Once Garou's arc gets fully drawn, I'll call it a masterpiece.

>>122726331
and I'm telling you you're an absolute fucking moron for spoiling ANY aspect of the ending, regardless of how insignificant you seem to believe it is.

>>122716575
Its one of those things where you can recognize the objective quality of piece of art (technique, storycrafting, prose, etc.), but still dislike it subjectively. This is what is actually meant when art is defined as subjective, rather than "its not shit because its my style."

>>122727581
No, sorry, fuck your shit, 20CB was pure fucking shit.
At least post Monster if you're going to post a masterpiece from Urasawa.
20CB is possibly his worst.

Nearly everything except Friend dying out of fucking nowhere was shit.
A nice idea of children dreams somehow ruining the world and how a religion went from being a whisper to the sole superpower religion in the world. But it barely shows how it happened which makes it all the more bullshit.

It really feels as though Urasawa took Johan and went all ''hey, rather than not give the main antagonist a name like Johan, let's make his identity and face unknown''.
It was just horribly fucking done the entire time.

Best fucking work by Urasawa my goddamn ass.

>>122725872
I agree that the dickgirl shit was fucking stupid, but I think the whole legendary aura vanishing overnight was intended to reflect how it works in reality. You win, everyone talks about you. You lose, you're nobody.

4 vol is my favorite, it amazes me the effort that goes into the backgrounds in this manga

>>122727726
Why would you give credit to Johan for being the super manipulator but not Friend ? Everone fawns over Monster all the time but I found it to be pretty boring, it revolved about a small circle of characters that I didn't found believable enough to care about with the exception of maybe Sara.

20th CB had some major motivations and I liked how Friend does not only manipulate a couple guys but makes the whole world into his instrument, turning the supposed heroes into terrorists. I also really enjoyed that all of these guys were just normal adults with all their flaws and the constant anxiety of being persecuted by the whole world - but still trying to right their wrongs. That and the whole scale the manga brought was just so much bigger than Monster that I enjoyed it endlessly more, you can have your taste, I have my own.

>>122727743
Shitposting isn't a commendable trait anon.

>>122727739
>You win, everyone talks about you. You lose, you're nobody.
That's not what I mean.
Like, for example, in the fight themselves, that faggot with his mouth fucked open fought Irako the first time.
He gets shown to be such a goddamn beast, killing so many people and shit.
But then, as he fights Irako, all his aura of badass vanishes. For no fucking reason.

At certain points, some characters are shown to be badass on such an impossible inhuman level and are then brought down to seem as though they're human in the middle of a fight.
And it doesn't happen once but many times over the course of the manga.

Like, for example, Gennosuke gets build up to be such a badass by the end of the manga despite his injury but when he fights Irako in the end, he doesn't have a badass aura.
Just why?

And Irako gets to have an insane ''I am Death motherfucker'' aura even though chapters prior, it was shown that Irako was just being a lazy faggot who struggled in his matches.

It's really inconsistent.

Because Johan actually manipulates people if you look close at the details of the manga.
Burned records, getting loved ones to help him, blackmail, getting serial killers to do his bidding, doing shit himself, etc.

Friend is shit because his motivation is stupid
>huuurrr you weren't a good friend so I'm going to fuck over the world

We never fucking know how Friend gets to be influential. Hell, not even the characters know.
His second in command even laments that he has no fucking clue how they got that powerful near the end.

It's all a big fucking joke.
How the fuck did Friend fuck the entire world?
How did he manipulate everyone?
We're never shown because it doesn't matter.

Just like how Friend bending the spoon shit was pointless.
Or how pointless that guy who could tell the future.

Or how about how Friend's daughter gets this large attention to herself about getting the mafia together to fight off Friend and whatever and NOTHING happens from it.

No assasinnation (red herring, huuurrr) and then Friend fucks the world.
None of it matters.

None of the characters do anything.
The MC just comes back out fucking nowhere by the end with a bullshit case of amnesia.
What the fuck?

Everything is all just a whole ''ooh shit, I remember something from my childhood which is important to the plot!''. shit over and over.

Johan actually fucks people because his main goal in life is to fuck as many people as he can, doing as little as he possible can, to corner himself and then get out of getting himself killed by doing as little as possible.

Johan is the greatest character written by Urasawa and it shows.
20CB is just shit.

What makes Monster so good is that it feels like a hunt.
You want to find out who the fuck Johan is and you also feel his overreaching hand touching everything.
Even when Johan isn't on screen, you can feel his manipulation by his followers.

And the sad fact is that no one really understood Johan by the end.
The guy just trolls the living fuck out of everyone, fucks so many people just to kill them, and it's all hidden very well across the entire manga.

I can't call Monster a masterpiece because of Urasawa's main flaw which is having damn interesting good characters contributing nothing overall.
Like that psychologist or that psychiatric or Anna.
But it's the discovery of Johan as the story progresses that makes it good.

And the ending is shit but only if you don't understand why Johan kills people.
If you do understand Johan, the ending is the best Urasawa has made.

>>122728109
Grimmer is 2nd best.

I think this is one of the most overrated manga on /a/.

I thought it was good, but just good. It had a decent enough start but went downhill pretty quickly, I'm not sure what lesson it was supposed to teach if any, I'm not sure what story it was trying to tell. The ending especially felt really weak to me.

But I mean, amazing art, the main character was really interesting, but I don't see why so many people insist on this manga.

As far as I remember Friends motivation was that he lived their child scenario, he basically just wanted to "play" - although it doesn't necessarily make him better than
>huuurrr you weren't a good friend

Ii'spretty sad that many events don't really equate into any results but that's the same with Monster for a large portion of the manga, Urasawa just likes to have his heroes fail I guess. The last Arc was a disappointment.

Probably have to reread it to really comment on what you said, it has been a couple of years since I read it. Overall you are not wrong but the positives did outweight the negatives by a large margin, at least in my memory.

>>122728466
>Urasawa just likes to have his heroes fail I guess.
To be fair, I liked the bit where history gets completely written in Friend's favor and the heroes just fail.
That was a damn good twist.
I liked the characters but it felt as though the story kept building up to something and just ended up not amounting to much.

It's really interesting how a simple cult went from being a whisper to a full blown superpower but the how it happened is completely ignored.
There's probably some message how things happen and no one knows how it happened but it doesn't seem well done.

>>122728487
It doesn't sound easy since it should have been the first thing you brought up.
I liked Grimmer for many reasons. His personality does remind me a lot of myself in how he acts in various ways, how unemotional he is yet still acts with compassion and dedication.

You're just being a little shit, again, about how I structure my sentences rather than my opinions. Saying childish things, in your opinion, does not make them wrong.

Maybe not quite masterpieces, but here are the ones that fill me with warmth inside.

>Kyou Kara Ore Wa

Undoubtedly the best yankee manga of all time. Golden characters, solid humor, and managed to keep fresh over all those chapters.

>The Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer

Some of the strongest characters in a shounen series, emotionally, and was able to wrap itself up in a perfect amount of chapters, with possibly one of the nicest endings I've ever seen.

>Yotsuba&!

I don't need to explain this, faggots.

>Hotel
I SEE TREES OF GREEN. AND RED ROSES TOO.

>Sun-Ken Rock
Mostly because of the art quality. I've never seen more detail in characters. Every chapter is hype because of the detailed fights.

>Mahou Tsukai No Yome
Because a love story between a Japanese girl and a British Demon is just so perfect. It has a vibe that reminds me of old English children's books, like The Secret Garden. I love it.

>Onani Master Kurosawa
No-one was ready for that one.

>Sakamoto Desu Ga
Fucking Sakamoto.

There's probably more but I read so many that I lose track of some of the great ones.

>>122730878

>>122728247

Dickgirl was introduced as a necessary but unfortunate break since the author needed the buildup for the final duel, I believe.

I fucking love how in Shigurui the author doesn't show us the character's thoughts, but rather relies on the expressions and on the narrator's comments.
I also love how the subversion near the end where the "bad guy" , or better antagonist, turns out to be the only character to give us the only positive message of the whole manga, while the "good guy" is a complete slave to rules and social expectancies.

Samidare is great and all, but Spirit Circle has been leagues better in my opinion. Yes, that's how high i'm rating it.

My only gripe withit is that's still ongoing so it still have the chance to fuck up the ending, but Mizukami has shown he knows what he's doing and in particular SC give the feeling how something carefully planned in detail in advance, so i'm not that worried.

>>122731736
Yeah, although Irako was a complete dick, you can see that he was truly the only one who fought the system to make a name for himself. Irako really seemed weird in some parts where he showed empathy like when he threw up while having to cut the faces of his targets but also cold blooded killed a physician for experience.
And in the end of the story, the Kogan girl had to kill herself because she knew that her husband was still fucked by the system and would forever be a husk of a man.

It's a really downer ending but perfectly reinforces the overall themes of the manga.

I really would have minded the dickgirl bits if that frogbro came back.
You saw him at some parts, he gets an arc and you seem him as part of the contestants at the end. Yet we never see his fight or what happened to him.

This thread is an excellent example of why /a/ manga taste fucking sucks. Most people read manga just for ``feels'' or because they have this plebian need for ``deep'', and/or dark, and/or edgy seinen, which is why these threads always get filled with the same stuff -- Asano Inio, Onani Master Kurosawa, Fukumoto, Berserk, Homunculus, Hokou no Kito, Vagabond, Tokyo Ghoul, and many other. Now, besides the works of Asano Inio, Tokyo Ghoul, and Homunculus, the rest are objectively good, but still too popular on /a/. There are literally thousands of manga out there, and yet people circlejerk over a handful of series that have already been discussed to death in the past years. Can you please read more than 20 series before trying to decide on the masterpieces in the medium? Because otherwise we are doomed to drawn in this sea of shit taste and peasantry.

You didn't like antimatter swords?
I agree.

There are no masterpieces, only things that come close to it

>>122735623
Shit to mediocre artwork, but the writing is easily my most favorite of all time.

But anon, he's right, Ichigo 100% is the freakin best harem/romance manga out there.
And the art is eye candy.

SBR.

Not the rest of the Jojo manga, though. SBR is massively superior to everything before it, almost shockingly so.

Then replace the word "masterpiece" by "things that come close to it" in your head.

I was shocked when I read that Matsumoto felt he got complacent when drawing characters facial expressions in this series, I think they're brilliantly stylized.

Is it possible to read SBR on its own? I've tried several times to slog through the rest of the series but I just can't.

>>122739101
It is, but you do miss stuff, and it's not as enjoyable without the context.

It's not like 1-6 are bad. 4 and 6 in particular are excellent.

>>122738611

Rumiko never made anything even close to a masterpiece. She's pretty much as middle-of-the-road as it gets.

>>122738635
Do scanlation readers like Taniguchi's works? It seems like he's one of the few who's much better represented among English publishers than among scanlators.

Inoue really is a masterpiece maker.

>>122716325
Only first half of the first chapter is translated, you can find a scan of the full 1st ch raw by google it, no scans further,

Some anon bought the first volume and will start scan it after he gets it, I think it he said it will be mid april

Kind of like how you can admit BMW cars are good but not like driving them

>>122731455
The anime is pretty good, if you're not autist and are not bothered by the songs and the engrish.

The manga is way longer than the anime so its nice to see the whole story , even if the ending was pretty lackluster.

Also you'll hate Maho for a long time.

Nausicaa's probably the best manga I read and will ever read. Miyazaki's greatest work for sure.

>>122726234
The combats are way too short for a comic. And there's not much where he can go from here, having defeated the ultimate strongest lifeform in the universe there's not a lot Saitama can do. The rest is 10/10 though

>>122739758
Yeah, but she's hot a fuck , and at the end she does good things for him,

Ugh.

I feel like everyone is just having a laugh and pretending to like that tripe.

Kokou no Hito with a happier ending could have been a masterpiece

>>122740148
>having a laugh
>not 'avin a giggle

What, you don't like when Nausicaa says fuck you, I'd rather risk killing off humanity than submit to your tyranny?

Because that's the best subversion of a Mary Sue ending I can think of.

>>122740272
Happier than it was? The author changed the story at the last second so Mori wouldn't die.

>>122740148
Since this is 4chan it's probably the case.

Still I really liked how the story played out.

>>122739202
I'm not sure but one thing I found odd is that his manga that's available in English isn't on rightstuff. I guess his publisher doesn't distribute their books to them.

>>122740323

I don't think you know what a Mary Sue is.

>>122740148
Why don't you like it?

>>122740513
Are you saying Miyazaki isn't a girl at heart? Because he obviously is

>>122727108
I'm reading it now.
50 chapters in people are still acting like total retards. It's really difficult to not drop this shit. It's not realistic at all unless the japanese are really that level of mindless conformist retards who need to be told like children to understand anything.

>>122736359
I remember reading that it's mostly about psuedo-political bullshit that would never really work in real life and that it's slow as shit. Is it actually worth reading?

>>122706640

Need to know somethings about that PunpPun mango.

What makes it so good ?
It doesn't look apealling to me and I don't know how I can enjoy a Manga where the MC has a ridiculously drawn bird's head

Uzumaki was good. Some don't like the ending but I did

>>122737583
The only manga by him i don't like is No. 5. I gave up around 4 volumes in, it was way too boring. Does it get better?

>>122708633
The ending suck though.
I'm just happy the closeted fag dude finally be able to be him/herself. He even runs like a girl at the end of the manga.

>>122741308

It's the closest thing to art (in the traditional sense) I've seen in manga - you can put it straight into a museum.

This one needs more chapters but its pretty great so far.

What about Ajin?

I think the first story about the boy who got his head stuck in the helmet was great. But the story shifted to some other boy...(which is not great).

>>122738722

I tought I was the only one reading that thing.
It got cancelled.
