The list of manga that are considered the most recognizable in Shonen genre, including the Big 3 of Shonen Jump. Can be used as a reference sheet for newcomers to the manga industry.

Series which were officially licensed by an English publisher, but were ultimately left incomplete (or not even released). This isn't a very comprehensive list (and older licenses are probably underrepresented), but I aimed to have a variety of examples across different publishers.

Thanks to ertiis for suggestions!
& let me know if there's an error or any suggestions of what to add.

*doesn't include fully released series that went out of print, or series that were published as compilations (ex. Oishinbo, Golgo 13), or license rescues

Potential series: Freezing

Noteworthy shounen that released during the Era of the "Big 3"

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 147 would be the Himitsu Series of books. It's for children and I can't find it on MAL. It has 116 volumes and started in 1972, and has sold 23 million (June 10th, 2018).

No. 156 is Sho Ban by Yuji Moritaka and Yukitaro Matsushima, which started in 2001 with 44 volumes & 340 chapters in Weekly Shonen Champion.

No. 176 is Tsukiji Uogashi Sandaime by Ken'ichi Oishi, Masaharu Nabeshima, Kazuto Kuwa, & Mitsuo Hashimoto, which started in 2000 with 42 volumes & 324 chapters in Big Comic Shogakukan.

For anyone interested in what graced the pages of the world's biggest manga magazine.

EDIT: Removed "Chainsaw Man" since it transferred to Shonen Jump+.

EDIT: Removed "Hunter x Hunter" since it is not listed in Jump's lineup anymore.

EDIT: Re-added "Chainsaw Man", "Hunter x Hunter", and other series that have left the magazine, since they count as part of its history.

EDIT: Added "Kochikame".

Usage of (different types of) guns in these manga is pretty common.

List of manga ever published in Indonesia

This list is derived from The Anime Man's "The OFFICIAL Top 100 Manga Of All Time (According To The Internet) Is Actually Surprising..." video. The video goes over the results of an online poll that he created in which people could vote for their favorite manga series.

The poll, taken in 2018, garnered over 160,000 votes from the international anime community. This is a complete list of the results along with the total vote count for each series. The list is in descending order, meaning the manga with the most votes come first.

Some entries are omitted because they don't have a MAL page. This is usually because they're web comics or made outside of Japan. Those omitted entries are listed here:
#53: Lumine (605 Votes)
#73: Tales of Demons and Gods (348 Votes)
#74: 19 Days (347 Votes)

Note: In the video, Joey accidentally counts all votes for Seven Deadly Sins and THE Seven Deadly Sins separately, meaning that there are technically 99 manga in this list. In the true list, Seven Deadly Sins would've been #13 with 1,795 votes. However, I've kept it in it's original position for the sake of being consistent with the video. THE Seven Deadly Sins garnered 271 votes, tying it with #89 (Aku no Hana), hence why there is no #90 on this list.

MC must gain at least 3 friends/Companions that do not become love interests

Troupes:
Loner/traumatized MC grows to appreciate friendship and opens up to others.
Or
MC leaves home or their typical setting and makes friends(Like One piece or most Shonen)

Keywords: Friendship, Loner, Bromance, Girl-friendships

All genre's

In many manga, the protagonist is an interesting character, but next to him or her is a group of uninteresting characters (friends, lovers, relatives, servants, pets, colleagues, teachers, clients, etc.), who almost do not differ from each other and easily disappear from readers' memory, and they are needed in the plot only to regularly emphasize the level of attractiveness of the protagonist in the eyes of the readers.

This list contains some manga where the protagonist is initially surrounded by a group of interesting characters or they gradually appear in his or her life as the story develops.

This is not a list of psychological or philosophical manga intended for psychologists or philosophers, this is a list of comedy shounens, romantic comedies and other entertaining manga intended for a general reader.

The characters in these manga can be simple and superficial, but many readers remember them well and don't usually confuse them with characters from other manga.

"Best" is subjective, but I think we can all agree that, in a manga, there is always that one arc that blows the rest of the story in the water: a turning point where the status quo is challenged and the plot reaches higher stakes. Basically, the peak of a series.

Presenting my list of the "best" arcs in several Weekly Shonen Jump manga, in no particular order. This list also includes some manga that have transferred to a different magazine (e.g. Chainsaw Man, World Trigger, D.Gray-man, etc.), since their arcs were published when they were still in WSJ.

The emerging subgenre of scary MC who does soft things. Why are there so many of these.

Series should be based on that contrast, so nothing where it's just one of the themes or a character is later shown to have a soft side.

These are usually comedies, but don't have to be.

Order is from ochd.co.uk, so it may not be alphabetical

Couldn't find Monmonmon, so i just substituted for Monster, sorry about that

This is from what I found, so I may have missed something.

This is a translation of a widely-publicized poll from 2021. This is NOT my personal opinion, so how about you shut up MAL.
