Anything except the horror genre goes. I can give you a few! [list] [*] If you want a classic, try Sanctuary, I find it really engaging, and Ikegami has a super distinctive art style. Thank you for the help. Sanctuary seems pretty intriguing so I will go with that. |

| How's the challenge going for everyone? Any interesting manga you have come across lately? |

AudioTsunami said: I've been slacking horribly and have found mostly mediocre stuff and it's bumming me out. I did start a new WSJ series though called Beast Children and it's lit Can relate. Haven't read much this year and now I need to put some effort into it. There wasn't much outstanding in my choices, either. Though, I can recommend Lip Smoke for some steamy shoujo, Yuureitou for fast paced historical mystery and 500-nen no Itonami, as well as Udagawachou de Mattete yo. for surprisingly sensitive shounen ai/bl. Beast Children looks cool, indeed! Might give it a try when the story has a little bit more progressed on MangaPlus. Also I stumbled across Hisakata no Oto, which I'll read in the near future. The cover looks great, hopefully the story can keep up with it. Guess some seinen-stories is all that's needed for me right now, lol. |
| Sound of skies looks decent and fits a category I need. Lip Smoke sounds too steamy for me, lol. I think most of what bummed me out is a read Boys on the Run and really wasn't a fan and it just really was a downer of a series. I've been keeping up with OUT too, which has been fun if oyu like yankee stuff. |
Schlopsi said: How's the challenge going for everyone? Any interesting manga you have come across lately? It's been fun! I completed my challenge already, but I had a great time checking out a bunch of new series! Here's some of the highlights for stuff I didn't know I would like beforehand:
It's always a lot of fun doing the challenge every year, it's such a great way to check out a whole bunch of stuff I'd probably never get exposed to otherwise! |
Schlopsi said: How's the challenge going for everyone? Any interesting manga you have come across lately? Maniac Road was really good. The last few chapters left me wanting more... but sadly the sequel hasn't been scanslated. QQ Dengeki Daisy has become my point of comparison for "is this romance manga worth the time". Sakigake!! Cromartie Koukou was great. Some of the gags made me laugh so hard... FLCL was interesting, but I think the anime has better pacing and comprehension. Plus I read my first ever light novel. |

| Hi! I'm looking for some recs for "(I.25) Read a manga recommended to you by another participant in the discussion thread." Preferably finished manga and horror, thriller or mystery, but anything can work as long as it isn't ecchi/harem or similar. Thanks in advance \o/ |

Preferably finished manga and horror, thriller or mystery, but anything can work as long as it isn't ecchi/harem or similar. Thanks in advance \o/ Maybe you'll like Vassalord, Yuureitou, Necromancer, LifE This one doesn't fit your prefered genres directly, but might still be something of interest: Wolf Guy: Ookami no Monshou --- @Horkus: Great to hear! This is exactly what the challenge aims at. :) Suiiki was read by a lot of people last year, too, and it picked my interest ever since. Zai x 10 sounds like a quick read, might have to save that one for the challenge? :D Hawkwood looks really good! I'll wait for the complete translation, the cover looks pretty straight forward. Have you read Wolfsmund? It might fit your taste. @BrainpanSonata: Maniac Road sounds like fun. Does it end with a cliffhanger? The adaption for Sakigake!! Cromartie Koukou is already on my ptw, might check that out before diving into the manga. Hmm. And is Dengeki Daisy that bad? I got hyped about it recently and need some romance in my life (this sounds so wrong, obviously). Still want to read it, though. |
| @Schlopsi Many thanks!! All of them sound interesting so I'll probably end up using the ones I didn't choose in other items :) |
| @Schlopsi Dengeki Daisy is that good, actually. I don't read many manga that are primarily romance and the ones I've done before for previous challenges were... varying levels of schmaltzy or downright strange. *has Barairo My Honey flashbacks* But Dengeki Daisy has an interesting plot and a well-grounded romance. Nary an eye was rolled while reading it, which is far more than I can say for other romcoms/romdramas. |

isahbellah said: Ironclad_Cobra said: Pretty sure it wouldn't since it's published in a propper magazine, but I could be wrong in that case, i'll wait for someone else's answer just to be sure... lol thanks anyway! Ok so after going to double-check this one I'd say it's not a doujin by any standard that we'd normally go by. From what I can tell from the tone of it all the 'offical doujin' thing is basically just a big non-canon sticker. |
| @ironclad_cobra gotcha!!!! which is a real shame, 'cause i honestly thought it was a doujin :/ but at least i'm glad i got an answer before putting it on the list. thank you so much!! |
| |
| @isahbellah No worries. It's usually pretty easy to tell what's what when it comes to doujins 'cause they won't have anything listed under serialization for the most part, with the exception of the odd one or two that get picked up after the fact |

| Anyone know a good manga, about 50-60 chapters long, that was originally published as a One-Shot. This one challenge is a nightmare. I've tried Komi-san and SWOT so far, but neither interested me enough to continue.... well, SWOT is just shit, actually. Also, a manga revolving around mythology or folklore, preferably Japanese or Nordic mythology. Kinda hard to find this one by myself. |

Also, a manga revolving around mythology or folklore, preferably Japanese or Nordic mythology. Kinda hard to find this one by myself. Does the one that was originally based on a one-shot have to be 50-60 chapters? I don't think it says anything about that. The recommended one on the front page is Imawabi no Dakini but it's only 16 chapters. For folklore there are a pile of options: Natsume's Book of Friends, Ran and The Grey World, Kekkaishi, Ushio to Tora, Spice and Wolf, Mononoke Soushi, Soul Eater, Uratarou, Vinland Saga, Record of Ragnarok. |
isahbellah said: @ironclad_cobra gotcha!!!! which is a real shame, 'cause i honestly thought it was a doujin :/ but at least i'm glad i got an answer before putting it on the list. thank you so much!! just search by doujin dude. it's literally in the database. |

tamochinnn said: @MRC_mod ― Section 4. Advanced Read a random manga assigned to you by a challenge staff member. Would prefer BL or Horror, less than 100 chapter(if possible). It's truly randomly assigned so we can't decide that, but it seems you got really lucky this time! Hope you have a good time :D Binetsu Kakumei |

We don't have much of an influence of what you'll get, just saying. All we do is looking for completed stuff and taking care that it isn't *too* long, when hitting the surprise-button. ;) Edit: fraideii was faster :D |
| @tamochinnn I don't think it is exactly stated, except for the random part. It's just for transparency that we try to explain how we come up with those titles ;) Hope you have fun with your assigned manga! We are glad you've joined us for the challenge. :) |
(I.25) Read a manga recommended to you by another participant in the discussion thread. Please let the recs coming in. :) As I'm doing another challenge simultaneously, I could need recs tagged with one of the following genres: Demons, Harem, Magic, Mecha, Parody, Space or Super Powers. They are not a must, but I'm not into those genres, so a little help from you would be super appreciated. As always, I'm looking for something finished, length doesn't matter *that* much. "Unpopular titles" seem to be more interesting to me, too. Thank youuu! |
