(Ignore my ratings, you should dictate the enjoyment yourself)

What definitely makes manga great would be that it goes over a broad range of themes/topics. Manga isn't afraid of addressing taboo topics, nor does it avoid concepts that most other entertainment mediums WOULDN'T DARE to touch. They also provide an imaginative exploration of how the Japanese perceive these topics. We rarely get cultural perspectives on certain topics.

Manga in which human behavior or/and actions are often analyzed throughout the series and is its main focus. Action/Fighting manga that contains similar scenes doesn't count (Unless it has several of these scenes).

Seinen manga is targeted to males, has action, philosophy, psychological elements, maybe some realistic romance.
That’s the common theme for this list. I will not include the popular shonen Naruto here, but will include Hunter x Hunter. That’s because HxH is dark and has deep philosophical themes. So that’s it!

- I would have added all of Junji Ito's work but it would fill the entire stack so I only added a few~
- Includes a variety of: gore, blood, torture, body horror, monster, zombie, ghost/spirit, dementia, demon/devil, survival, survival games, & shock factor

realism, magical realism, symbolism, pessimism, tragedy, acid humor, trauma

realismo, realismo mágico, simbolismo, pesimismo, tragedia, humor ácido, trauma

manga that at some point i read that the art was great.

Some of the best drawings in manga. Whether it is because of the level of detail or because of its creativity and uniqueness, these manga have beautiful artwork. This list only includes one manga per artist.

Of course this is very subjective and only consists of manga I’ve read. Feel free to comment more manga on my profile for me to check out and I might include in this list!

These are a few mangas that I believe everyone should read at least once in the entirety of their life

A list of manga where the protagonist can see and/or interact with supernatural entities and spirits.

If Patrick Bateman had a manga list, it would be this one!

Gintama? Ichi the Killer? Gantz? Bleach? GTO? Not today, ma'am

some mangas with unsettling atmosphere, that may make you feel something is wrong

(only 1 manga per author, as I want some diversity)


feel free to make recommendations

Pretty self -explanatory. This list contains manga that are ripe in "what the fuck" moments.

Must-read seinen!
