Hi ! Since this community is brand new, let’s get it started with the classic recommendations thread :⁠-⁠)

I haven’t read mangas in a while, and my favorite were (in no particular order)

  • Kenshin
  • Hunter X Hunter
  • GTO

I also liked one piece, but got out a few years ago and now catching up seems like quite a bit of work, and the start of Naruto before stuff got too weird.

Do you have good mangas to recommend for me ?

Thanks a lot :⁠-⁠)

    Jujutsu Kaisen - It’s fast-paced and has decently creative powers; if you like shonen manga but don’t want the slow, textbook setup of shonen manga, this is a good read.

    Chainsaw Man - Full of wacky and vulgar humor. Breaks the mold of normal shonen manga without trying to subvert the usual tropes, more like by being weird and doing its own thing.

    Fullmetal Alchemist - If you haven’t read this, you should. Honestly, probably one of the few manga that get my gold star of approval. Great characters, great plot, sticks the landing, leaves you satisfied but wishing there was more.

      Thanks for the recommendations, jujutsu kaizen is OK, but I find it doesn’t get me excited for the protagonists getting more powerful, which is a part I really enjoy in shonen manga.

      I added chainsaw man to my list of mangas to read.

      Fullmetal I have read already, just forgot to mention it.
