I'm trying to expand the manga collection in a highschool library. I've asked a few kids around what they would want to see, but it's not really enough. I was going to ask what you guys would reccomend. It does have to be translated and have physical copies. Also most themes are fine just take into consideration you're putting this in a school library
Thanks for the help!

Are most all of these intentionally adult manga with graphics depictions of murder, sex, rape, or otherwise extremely depressing and not really something a high school kid should be reading, at least not at school?
Not that I'm saying any of these are bad though. Interesting choices, anon.
Sadly, I don't have much to recommend myself since I watch much more anime than I read manga, so I'll link this article I found through Google:

I think Death Note might be banned if you're in the United States though. The amount of articles about a kid being found with their own "Death Note" book is crazy.

Make sure to check a couple sources, reviews, and preread them to make sure they are age appropriate. Also make sure to get Azumanga Daioh.

Are you from France that all these are officially translated?

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure would be a cool addition.
Can't go wrong with satoshi kon's Opus
