And as stuff in the hentai tag can't be substituted for ecchi, I'm gonna say you can't substitute the other 2 either. |
| Hey, could sm1 rec me smth for the read a manga that has a main character of gender opposite to the demographic part? Ideal would be some action / power manga with a female protag. Not... too ecchi, please. Ideally not ecchi at all. |

| Hey there! I signed up for a medium challenge but life intervened. Could I possibly switch to an Easy challenge? |

Transience said: Hey there! I signed up for a medium challenge but life intervened. Could I possibly switch to an Easy challenge? Yeah of course. Just edit the difficulty and complete just the number of categories required for easy. My advice would be to leave all the categories open as if you were doing hard, then once you fill 20, just delete all the excess. And who knows, there is still 5 months left so you could still take a shot at medium if you read shorter series. Good Luck! |

| Is there a manga that started in 2015 and is already completed? Thanks! I prefer it's not a oneshot. |
Joms said: I was using the "manga search" system to help you with that, but I didn't found anything significant to recommend, sadly.Is there a manga that started in 2015 and is already completed? Thanks! I prefer it's not a oneshot. Hmm.. well I can still think of two things : - I saw "I am a hero" in your "plan to read", so maybe you could try reading the spin-off I am a Hero in Osaka ? It could give you a sort of preview of the original manga and the overal "mood" of it (the characters are not the same, so no risk of spoiling). - I know it's a one-shot (and very short), but still, there is Bakemono Recchan (I saw it's in your plan to read aswell). Asano always deliver after all. Good luck with your manga searching. |

Joms said: Is there a manga that started in 2015 and is already completed? Thanks! I prefer it's not a oneshot. Dhaldot no Akujiki Musume is a uh,,,"two-shot" But other than what the guy above named and Dhaldot, all I can suggest is going to mangaupdates.com, picking a genre you like, sorting by year, going to wherever 2015 starts and just checking every title to see if it's completed and sounds interesting and is translated. It's an ardous task, but sometimes that's the price we pay for working against so many factors to find something(time, availability, translation, ect) |
| When I came to the forum searching for this thread, I looked back and forth, scrolling the page, only to see that it wasn't there, but on the second page.. I don't understand why this thread isn't in the sticky section. It kind of made me sad to be honest, because I think here is quite a wonderful place to exchange about manga and our reading progress and all. It shouldn't be only to ask for recommendation but also to have a little reading community enjoying the challenge together, or something. I really value this place for that. (Maybe it's because nobody read manga in summer vacation ? ^^ who know..) So, I come back from finishing reading Subaru, and it was an extremely enjoyable read. Really. I thought about doing a review of it, but I know it would be very exausting to do considering the amount of stuff that could be said about it. So, in short (not so short, but well..) Anyway, I hope we'll see more comment in the thread during this summer, because it kind of is the only real place to have civilized conversation about manga, here in the forum of MyAnimeList. huhu |

| I'm finally back. Sorry for the wait to everyone who's had their completed challenge for review. I had a computer problem and couldn't be back until now. Lots of thanks to @AudioTsunami for doing such a wonderful job helping out with the discussion questions. @Dullboy This year it was decided to be left without sticky because the sticky posts are usually rules and the challenges don't fall into that category. Since the challenge posts are more popular this year, they're usually on the first page anyway and you can go to the discussion thread by the link on the challenge thread if you can't find it anywhere else. The manga discussion thread is way more quiet than the anime counterpart. Subaru sounds interesting! I had never heard about it or seen it before. I'll try to check it out. |

| @Dullboy Thank you for the summary/review of Subaru. It sounds really interesting and I had not heard about it before. I'm definitely checking it out. |
 |
| Here I am, it's finally my turn to ask for a recommendation for this challenge: Read a manga recommended to you by another Manga Reading Challenge participant I'd prefer something 2-3 volumes long since I don't have much time to read now. Preferably no ecchi and harem. Here is my signup form. Thank you in advance! |

Preferably no ecchi and harem. Here is my signup form. Thank you in advance! Densha Otoko is only 3 volumes Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan is only 1 volume. |
| Slightly odd question: Can i add a category like epic poem or something similar for the Read a manga adapted from a video game, original anime or light novel challenge? While browsing for some new manga I found Dante Shinkyoku, which is, as you might have guess, a manga adaptation of Dante Alighieri's classic work The Divine Comedy. I'm asking this only because we can use novels for the anime challenge and it's not that often that you have such a highly regarded work as the source material. |
| @AudioTsunami, @dream_eater1012 Thank you both! So, I think I'll read Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan for this challenge (looks like every manga-reader on this site has already read it except me..), and Kamisama ga Uso wo Tsuku for another challenge I still have to complete. Thanks~ |

| Hello, if I started a manga a couple of Days before the challenge I could still use it to fill the item?? These mangas are: Lost Canvas Gaiden about Ch,50 Love Hina about vol 2 Stealth Symphony about Ch5 In the LightNovel department it has to be a full series of Light Novels or with one Volume is alright? |

If I recall correctly, if you started a manga before you posted the challenge, it may be used to fill the item, but only if it was in 2016. If you started them in 2015, they can't be used. In the LN department, one volume is enough. |

lequack said: Challenge & MAL related » Read a manga that another user has read for this challenge Can somebody help me out with this? Please recommend a manga that you liked. Any genre is ok but I would prefer if the manga was not set in school. Also the manga must have a happy ending and must be complete + fully translated in english. Thanks. Densha Otoko. It's awesome. I read it. |
| Hello I need a recommendation for the challenge. I like a wide variety of genres just not Yuri, Historical, Or Mecha. I want the recommendation to be under 40 chapters long and completed. |
  |
| Hey I have a question about the bonus challenge stuff. It might sound stupid but one of them was to catch up to a long running manga with 300+ chapters. I read bleach, is it still count? because the manga finished. |
| Did you catch up before or after it finished? |
AudioTsunami said: Did you catch up before or after it finished? Like a week before I finished. Don't know if MAL has the dates though |
| If you caught up before it's good, if it finished first, it's not. |
| I don't really know, but I thought it had to be ongoing by the time you finished the challenge. |
| So for "Start and catch up to an on-going long-running (300+) series" I was planing on reading Magi. But it might end before I end up "catching up" with it. Would it still count for this challenge? |
| @TakeruChan @Brand Well, it was supposed to be on-going until the time you finished the challenge, not necessarily until the end of the year. I'll only count it if it's still being scanlated. It's just a bonus challenge, but I know there are completionists out there. Let me think about it for a little longer to see if there's a way to get around it. I guess using dates would help, but I'm not sure... Let me think about it for a couple of days. Sorry. @momokusheila they're pushing the chapter count, but what about Sakamichi no Apollon or Prunus Girl? |
密室殺人はなぜ美しいのか。 |
| @tsuyokunaru No problem, meanwhile I have it written there, but if there would be a problem I would delete this. |
Challenge & MAL related » Read a manga recommended to you by another Manga Reading Challenge participant Please recommend a manga that you liked. Any genre is ok. I prefer short story (1-3 vol.) |
| @tsuyokunaru Thanks. I guess I should have started on that one sooner rather than later. But it was my only real pick for this one when I choose my reading material in the beginning of the year, and did not know it was going to end. LOL. Of course I choose the one that is going to end this year. I was hoping to actually get through the whole manga challenge twice this year. Ha ha, that isn't going to happen. >_> I've been busy really! Though I think I took on both longer anime and manga this year then I did last year. @JankesS You really liked another Usamaru Furuya so my rec would be Genkaku Picasso. I loved it and it is only three volumes long. |
Challenge & MAL related » Read a manga recommended to you by another Manga Reading Challenge participant If someone can help me out with this, I'd very much appreciate it ~ I'm not very picky; just a series that's completely scanslated is enough for me (': Thanks in advance! |
| @Brand Yeah, I've been crazy busy lately and also have tried to tackle longer stuff and has taken me so long! By the way, is Genkaku Picasso completely scanlated? I've been trying to find that and Usamaru's version of No Longer Human but I have only found incomplete versions. @5shin What about Hoshi no Samidare? |
密室殺人はなぜ美しいのか。 |
| @tsuyokunaru Not sure, but both of those series got an English releases. Genkaku Picasso from Viz and it is still pretty much cover price. No Longer Human is sadly OOP and expensive (though I think it still shows up at that one discount booth at anime cons sometimes). I lucked out, I bought it when I still bought when it was new. At a time when I pretty much bought everything Vertical released. I just didn't get around to reading it till this year. |
tsuyokunaru said: I've been trying to find that and Usamaru's version of No Longer Human but I have only found incomplete versions. I recently read Usamaru's No Longer Human, so feel free to ask me where. ;) |
Oh, looks fun! Thank you, I look forward to reading this (': |
