This is for your friends who only know manga through anime or only relate it to shonen and ecchi, it’s not necessarily directed at a “manga beginner” but at those who want to see the different perspectives the medium can offer. 3 volumes and up, well drawn, easy to follow, interesting visual and narratively.

Some other aspects I considered:
- Cinematic vibes
- Human drama
- Down to earth, realistic characters
- Cross-cultural appeal (e.g pop culture references, foreign settings)
- No out of place fanservice
- No tropes that might break the immersion (e.g. author insertion)
