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 :⁠-⁠)

A personal favorite manga of mine is Spy X Family. It’s about a spy who has to start a family as part of a mission only to adopt a telepath girl and marry an assassin. It’s really funny and wholesome.

It’s on the Shonen Jump app but if you don’t want to pay the subscription you can also read it here:

I’d say give One Piece another shot, it’s long but it’s great the whole way through so it never feels like a slog.

Choujin X is a more recent one that’s super good, amazing art and interesting characters in a pretty mysterious world. It has an amazing first chapter and first volume in general, so give it a try!

Finally, I’d give Undead Unluck a shot. It’s gonna be an anime soon, but it keeps getting better and better in my opinion.

Hope that helps!

+1 to Undead Unluck, I can’t believe how good it got from where it started. Phenominal stuff.

I’ll give it another shot, just need to remember where I dropped it and find the chapter ⁠_⁠

I added choujin X to the list, but cannot find undead unluck online, where do you read it?

The one punch man manga, animated by Murata, is top notch.

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.
