So refreshing to see a booktuber who also reads manga! I find it hard to find creators who read both traditional fiction and comics. As for manga recommendations, ‘Witch Hat Atelier’ is a lovely series! I’ve just started it myself but it’s already one of my favourite series :) If you liked ‘Tokyo Ghoul’ volume 1, I urge you to continue, It really is a great series! Lastly a new series I’m loving is ‘Blue Period,’ it’s about a boy discovering his love for art.
My top 3 Manga stories of all time: 1. Goodnight Punpun- a psychological, coming of age story about a character called punpun who is illustrated as a cartoon bird. It follows his childhood from age 10-20 and how his upbringing led to him becoming an realistically flawed individual who falls into various relationships. It’s very sad but also depressingly relatable, make sure you’re in the right headspace. Definitely an 18+ so be careful. 2. Monster- a psychological thriller set in Germany and Czechoslovakia about a doctor who saves a boy only for that boy to grow up into a “monster”. He then goes on the massive journey to hunt this man down to stop him hurting anyone else and uncovers this huge conspiracy and the mans past. Really really good characters who have realistic flaws and super interesting character arcs. 3. To your eternity- a fantasy series about an immortal being who can take on the form of those around them who die. It’s a really interesting concept and definitely an enjoyable tear jerker. Same person who did a silent voice which is also a must read/watch. ALSO ANYTHING BY JUNJI ITO OMFG THAT MAN IS A GENIUS
I watched Monster the anime and loved it, one of the most complex and multi layered works in any media imo. I have yet to read the manga, but have read another manga by the same author called Pluto and its excellent.
@@sofiamilla7809 I finished it literally yesterday and it’s now my all time favourite! And yeah I did a lot of ceiling staring after 😂 I definitely recommend monster it’s so well written!
I absolutely love the diversity of your channel. One of the most wholesome, heartwarming, and funny manga I have read is "Yotsuba &!", its about daily life of the little lovable girl, Yotsuba, and her family and friends. Pure slice of life and comedy, would really recommend it if you want a big dose of joy!!
A few recommendations: - Kitchen Princess by Miyuki Kobayashi - Cardcaptor Sakura - Kiss of the Rose Princess They're all romance and hopefully you'll enjoy them.
As someone who grew up with Shojo and Josei, I would definitely recommend finishing Sailor Moon (until you feel you need a break) as it makes you feel so happy! Another Shojo manga I feel you would love (once you finish what you love of what you bought) is Fruits Basket whose anime is about to finish but is so good!!
Akatsuki no Yona or Yona of the Dawn is a super good historical romance/fantasy manga! It has a super engaging plot and amazing character development ++the art style is amazing!🤍
i feel like you’d really like The Promised Neverland and The Girl From The Other Side 💛 also FullMetal Alchemist is really action packed with lots of plot twists
@@immanuelkant8560 so??. You mean she need to read this as a "Classic" manga??. Ok i get it the beginning of the manga is so good. But at the end, oh men, all we need now is just like 'We Love God Emma'. And did i need mention that most of the character at the end doesnt have any personality than just 'We love Emma. She is a God. Anyways im really sorry if my grammar sucks. I am not a native English. And i think i kind misunderstood your comment. Like the word affiny, i use Google and from many meanings as that. I would say its 'similiar'. Im really sorry though if you doesnt mean like that
@@immanuelkant8560 ok. Now let's talk about how useless Rey. Rey is my favorite character because he is just so realistic. But after that you know, he is much more like a side Chara that just like "Ow hey Emma a i am in your side, hahaha thats funny Emma". Like whats the fuck. Rey you have personality, you are not side character. Please STOP. Anyway how about your thought about Rey???
We've seen Classics Emma. And right now, Otaku Emma 🇯🇵🍙 Anyway, I've read hundred manga series especially seinen (adult male), Shonen and little amount of Shoujo. For Shoujo teen romance manga I recommend you Orange. It's about a girl got a letter from 10 years into the future, telling her to prevent her 'biggest regrets' which has something to do with a boy from her school. And for Seinen, I recommend you to read Monster by Urasawa Naoki, a Chris Nolan of manga creator. It's about a doctor who did an emergency surgery to a kid over a rich patient only to face the reality that the kid has grown up to bring despair and turmoil to him because apparently that kid is a serial killer.
Old, but still my faves: "Kingdom" by Yasuhisa Hara (orphan, war, making the biggest dream come true, gorgeous art, there is no english publication, I read it in French, but you can find english one via internet), "Orange" by Ichigo Takano (friendship, mental health, small scifi element), "Fullmetal alchemist" by Hiromu Arakawa (the art is awesome, some in a funny way, some normal and it fits, huge inside joke community), "Ibitsu" by Haruto Ryo (urban horror legend), "Another" by Yukito Ayatsuji (paranormal), "Alice in Borderland" by Haro Aso (escape room vibe), "The girl from the other side" by Nagabe (cosy story, human girl in a world of monsters)- these are the firsts that came to my mind. Enjoy :)
This might be a little daunting for how long it is but One Piece is a fantastic manga series! It’s such a beautiful mixture of comedy, emotional depth, and wonder. If you’re up for one of the most ambitious tales of adventure in fiction I would highly suggest it.
@@accidentalfrenchfries Right now would actually be the perfect time to start it. After the current arc, the story will be entering its final stretch, so it’s very likely to end in the next 5-8 years. That way you’ll get to experience the majority of the story now and experience the final years with everyone else.
Hey Emma! I started reading manga this year and my first one was The Girl from the Other Side. It's a heartwarming, quiet, gothic fantasy about a little girl and a gentle monster. I think you would really enjoy it. But beware the last volume doesn't come out till November and i can assure you, the wait until then is a loooong one for me.
I love that you’re getting into manga!! I’d really recommend blue period, blue flag, and toilet-bound hanako kun. They’re all wholesome but with also angsty at times as just overly enjoyable to read. Plus the art is great
*rolls up sleeves* Finally someone who actually wants my manga recommendations! Since you've mostly read romance manga so far, I'd recommend: A Silent Voice (Koe no Katachi) Kaichou wa Maid-Sama - this one's a bit odd, but a classic Snow White With the Red Hair (Akagami no Shirayukihime) Orange by Takano Ichigo - this one only has 5 volumes, so you wouldn't have to commit to a very long story Fruits Basket - I sadly haven't read this yet (only watched the anime so far), but the story is PHENOMENAL Kiss Him Not Me (Watashi ga Motete Dousunda) - also very weird but I enjoyed sooo And then I thought I'd throw in some other genres if you ever wanted to leave the realm of romance manga :P Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic Bungou Stray Dogs (Literary Stray Dogs) - all characters are named after classics authors (at the beginning it's only Japanese, later they throw in English/American and Russian) and have superpowers based on one of their books, the actual story is about detectives and the mafia Not sure if you'd like sports manga, but I recommend Haikyuu!! (volleyball) and Kuroko no Basket (basketball) Thanks for a fantastic video as always! I would love it if you made more manga content, as long as you enjoy it too :)
I remember watching the Anime adaptation of Tokyo Mew Mew with my daughter when she was a little girl! We loved it. Haven't read the Manga, though, sadly. Yet....
Recommendations: Orange, Dreamin Sun, I Hear the Sunspot, Bloom into you, The Promised Neverland, Shortcake cake, I Will eat your pancreas, Flying witch, a silent voice, My Brothers Husband. 😊💗
I read Fruits Basket back when the pandemic first began which was just what I needed and sent me on a whole manga/anime journey. It has some romance in it but is more a story of found family, character growth, and relationships. Another one you might like is Yona of the Dawn. Again, it does have romance in it but is more an adventure and coming of age story. It's a lot of fun! Loved the vlog, thanks for sharing!
First time commenting on your video! I've been enjoying your videos lately. I have 2 manga recommendations. If you like fantasy, quirky characters, a little romance, character development, adventure: Akatsuki No Yona. If you like rural Japan life, Japan culture & languange, quirky & lovable characters (especially the kids), humour, : Barakamon. Btw, both have anime adaptation (albeit only a few snippets adapted from the manga). They're fun too watch too.
I recently found your channel and absolutely fell in love. I realized that you talk a lot about one hundred years of solitude, and I really wanted to know your opinion about the age range, because I think the book must be amazing, and I am really looking forward to reed it, but I am not sure about the age range. Thanksss. If someone else could tell me as well I would be very glad too :)
in spain we usually have it as required reading in our last year of high school so i'd say starting from 17 you're fine to read it!!! you can obviously read it before but be aware that the content is sometimes a bit violent and there are a few hard scenes that might be a bit traumatizing for a very young person (i'm talking 12/14)
I recommend Fruits Basket! The manga ended in 2006, it had an anime adaptation in 2001 that failed because it didn’t follow the source material, and in 2019 it got another adaptation that just finished this past Monday! It’s an amazing story that deserves so much recognition and a movie will be coming out in 2022 as well. The 2001 adaptation is hilarious and still worth watching, but the 2019 one is an absolute masterpiece :)
My recommendations are Cardcaptor Sakura, Fruits Basket, Twinkle Stars, Yona of the Dawn, Blue Flag, Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts and Fullmetal Alchemist.
I recently read "Emma" by Kaoru Mori and highly recommend it! You would also love Ancient Magus Bride! I would also love if you did a video where you read a classic novel and then read the "manga adaptation" of one of those novels! There are a line of American-made manga called "Manga Classics" that have a huge catalog titles (including Anne of Green Gables!) and there are also plenty of Japanese-made ones as well, like some of H.P. Lovecraft's stories. But no matter what, please more manga videos!
Ahh so excited! I hadn't read any manga at the start of the year but ive now read around 40! I absolutely adore them, i'm someone who likes to read a lot of dense classical literature so manga really helps my brain cells stay alive. I recommend the magi series - it gives me lots of seretonine!
I used to read a ton of cooking manga when I was younger and Kitchen Princess holds a lot of nostalgia for me! And- I'd like to recommend Full Moon wo Sagashite. It's about a girl who's terminally ill and dreams of becomming a singer and finds away to achieve that dream through magic. Despite the description it's really wholesome? Yes it can make youu cry but it can also make you laugh about the joys of life and all that, and the anime has an amazing soundtrack. It holds a similar place in my heart that Sailor Moon does
Because you love classical literature, as I do, I’ll recommend to you some classic retro shojo manga from the 70s, as that decade was highly inspired from classical literature. “The Rose of Versailles” is a love story and a political drama set in the French Revolution. The main characters are Marie Antoinette and lady Oscar. It’s such a classic. It reminds me of melodramatic literature of that time. “Candy Candy” is about an orphan girl with many adventures, it’s about friendship, love and growing up, overcoming hardships. (it’s like Anne of green gables and Oliver Twist) “Glass Mask” is an epic story about a girl named Maya who wants to be an actress and it has so many deep meanings about acting and some of the plays that they play are from classical books such as “little women”, “wuthering heights”, “a midsummer’s night dream” and some pieces of Japanese literature. There are many other manga from that period, but unfortunately they either aren’t officially published in English or they aren’t scanlated. Still, I want to mention “the Poe clan” that is a gothic horror about vampires from the 18th and 19th century, “Haikara San ga Toru” which is about a headstrong girl in Taisho era (1920s) who is a feminist, “Yokohama Monogatari” that is a slice of life story of the Meiji era (Belle Époque of Japan) and one of the two main love stories is very similar to “gone by the wind”. If you’re are interested, make a research on those. I think that you will like them.
I feel like you'd love 'Kimi Ni Todoke' by Karuho Shiina. It's a really cute romance/ slice of life manga and the main character is so adorable! It's definitely a fun read and the art+ covers are so pretty! Another favorite of mine is 'The Demon Prince of Momochi House', it is a fantasy/romance manga and the art is stunning
I definitely recommend Lovely Complex!! I just rewatched the anime and it such a serotonin boosting story for me!! I kept smiling like an idiot the whole time haha I also recommend Kokoro Connect! It has such a compelling plot!! It reads like a light-hearted manga, but it's also psychological and thought-provoking. It was also the first manga that I ever bought- I'm so glad I own the entire series ^^
What a beautiful vlog! Sailor Moon is love ❤❤❤ I would definitely love to see more of these! I think you would love the manga "Bloom Into You", it's a beautiful lesbian romance with a lot of depth into the inner world of the characters.
Hello Emma, recommend to you the following: - Skip Beat! by Yoshiki Nakamura (very funny, ongoing manga) - Aria by Kozue Amano (an absolute beautiful, warm and cozy anime) - Gakuen Alice by Tachibana Higuchi (my childhood favorite) - Shugo Chara! by Peach-Pit (my childhood favorite) - Gakuen Babysitters by Hari Tokeino (super cute and short anime) - Nodame Cantabile by Tomoko Ninomiya (it's a manga, but I recommend the anime for the music) Enjoy your reading :)
I am new to manga as well and I read Witch Hat Atelier Vol. 1 - it was good, pretty good start to the series, I feel like it will be an awesome series though. Also, the art is super whimsical and beautiful ❤️ so would reccommend!
I’ve started reading mangas recently as well! I loved the series “Last Notes”. It’s about a store that sells a magical and mysterious aroma. It contains romance, comedy and fantasy! I think you’ll like it! 😉
I would really recommend The Way of the House Husband! It’s about an ex-yakuza boss who now dedicates his time to keeping his and his wife’s house while she works 9-5. Very funny, very silly and heartwarming to watch him do everything he can to make his wife happy!
i recommend you to read Ao Haru Ride by Io Sakisaka, so so good, the ending is just *chef's kiss. You won't be disappointed. It's my all time favorite manga >
love to see you enjoying sailor moon! i always recommend pandora hearts and fullmetal alchemist, but if you want more shoujo manga then i definitely recommend cardcaptor sakura and fruits basket!
Berserk (Epic Horror Fantasy) JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure (iykyk) One Piece (classic epic fun ride) Vagabond (badass swordsman epic) Kaguya-sama: Love is War (rom com drama psych slice of life)
Hi, Emmie. A few modest recommendations on my part: Manga: Silent Voice; Ancient Magus Bride; Girl from the Other Side; My little Monster; Fruits Basket; Kimi no Todoke; Solanin; Your Lie in April; March Comes In like a Lion; Made in Abyss; Oyasumi Punpun (take care with this one. It is like reading Dostoevsky, very depressing!!!); & Light novels: Book Girl; Violet Evergarden; I want to eat your Pancreas; I Had That Same Dream Again; & And I recommend Bookwalker for Manga and Light novels. I hope you will find something. Please, Take Care of Yourself and Thank You, really love your channel.📚✌
So excited that you're doing this video! If you're looking for comforting shojo manga I'd recommend fruits basket, my teen romantic comedy, ouran high school host club, given, and maid-sama. I have a lot more recs for other genres too if you want but I'll leave it at that😂
Pandora Hearts is a manga that is an amazing read. It has a unique and intricate plot. I'm also very into the manga The Ancient Magus' Bride right now. Don't judge it by how it seems at first. It's really a lot deeper than it may seem. Made in Abyss is a series that is one of a kind ,but it comes with a ton of content warnings. It's also one I would recommend watching the anime first because it's a more immersive experience and does a good job of trying to tone down some of the more controversial elements. Pandora Hearts is the only manga of the 3 I recommended that is completed. All 3 have anime adaptations ,but as of now the Pandora Hearts anime is incomplete and did an anime original ending. The other 2 series have anime adaptations that seem to be coming out periodically when there is enough material in the manga for another installment. All 3 look beautiful, especially Magus' Bride and Made in Abyss with them being more recent ,and all 3 have amazing soundtracks.
One Piece - it's a good time to start getting into the series. It's filled with adventure, mysteries, insane world building, and character development. Makes you laugh, cry (happy and sad tears), and just leaves you in awe on how well thought out each arc is and how it links perfectly to future arcs despite being years apart. Currently, it's more than a thousand chapters but it's totally worth the read. Story seems a bit childish at first but once you reach near the 50 chapter mark you begin to realize that this is something special and like the protagonist's crew you somehow find yourself drawn in and to go along with the journey.
You can't pass up junji ito. He's a horror mangaki with some of the most shocking illustrations and provocative storylines I've ever seen. And to top it all off, all of his works are published in these beautiful hard cover volumes that are just perfect to collect.
Agreed! Junji Ito is a master of his craft. I started with his collection of stories called "Shiver" and then never looked back, got most of his works now.
Laid-Back Camp! It’s not a romance(at least what I’ve read so far) but it’s such a cozy vibe! Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, it also one of my favorites! The romance and friendships in it are so much fun.
So glad to see you getting into manga! Hope you find a lot of things to love. And Sailor Moon too, which was what introduced me to anime and manga. If you love it, also get Card Captor Sakura, it's so adorable and sweet. And Fruits Basket. It was the first manga series I read and it's still the best one for me, such a deep story and characters.
i suggest these mangas : 1-Beserk 2-Vagabond 3-Kingdom these three have a lot of dark fight scene , Fantastic art and a great story but for having a light drum story: silent voice and these too: Promised Neverland(this one has a great s1 Anime) Tokyo Ghoul Haikyuu
It’s funny that you’re irritated that Tuxedo mask wears a half mask and no one notice him when the whole sailor scouts doesn’t wear a mask just a sailor outfit and no one recognizes them 🤣 I still love Sailor Moon and hope you still like it as you go further into the series. I have a ton of recommendation because this is my first time I visit your channel so Idk the genre you prefer. High school romance: My Love Story by Kazune Kawahara, Kimi ni Todoke: from me to you by Karuho Shiina, Say I Love You by Kanae Hazuki, Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun by Izumi Tsubaki, Love Com by Aya Nakahara, Ouran high school host club by Bisco Hatori. Other: A man & his cat by Umi Sakurai, Sweetness and Lightning by Gido Amagakure, Action: Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto Fantasy/paranormal romance: Inuyasha by Rumiko Takahashi, The Ancient Magus’ Bride by Kore Yamazaki, Kamisama Kiss by Julietta Suzuki, Black Bird by Kanoko Sakurakouji, Vampire Knight by Matsuri Hino Murder/Mystery: Erased by Kei Sanbe, Death Note by Tsugumi Ohba, Tomie by Junji Ito Manga made by CLAMP: Cardcaptor Sakura, Chobits, Kobato, Magic Knight Rayearth, Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, xxxHolic Currently reading: Spy x Family by Tatsuya Endo and A sign of Affection by Suu Marishita I hope this is helpful I didn’t know how to categorize some of them since some goes under more than one category.
Mangas omg I love you more now,big big sailor moon fan,big part of my childhood.great choice watch the sailor moon crystal anime you will love it absolutely sure you do
I recently finished The Kawai Complex Guide to Manors and Hostel Behavior. It's shoujo. The humor in this series *chef's kiss* One moment you feel each character is so different from one another but the next moment they all fit so perfectly together. Wholesome series, do give it a read when it's possible.
For slice-of-life romance I really like Kimi ni Todoke, Ouran High School Host Club, Ore Monogatari and Horimiya~ Also I would highly recommend the manga by CLAMP (Card Captor Sakura, Kobato...) They have a lot of very beautiful and mostly lighthearted fantasy series
My two recommendations: 1. Basara (or Legend of Basara), by Yumi Tamura. If you ever come across it, I'd love for you to give it a try! It's an epic fantasy romance that uses the gender-bender trope (girl disguises as a boy). I never got to meet another person who's read it, but it remains one of my favorite manga series after many years. 2. High School Debut, by Kazune Kawahara. This is a super cute high-school rom-com that focuses on the developing relationship of the lead couple throughout high-school, rather than being about them getting together only. I don't see many series depicting healthy teenage relationships, and this is it! Also, it can be hilarious at times.
You have to watch the drama for an Incurable case of Love! It’s so sweet hahaha 🤣 and the actor is one of the finest actors in Japan who can act sooooo well in any kind of drama, love, fighting...etc❤️
First here,As always... Was waiting for the manga video.. And here you are!! This channel is my all time favorite comfort and cozy place!!.. And ya we will love to watch more manga reading vlogs. 🕊😇✨
You should give a try to "Honey Lemon Soda" by Murata Mayu, it is super precious and has a high school environment. For a complete opposite, you can look into "Black Buttler" by Lana Toboso. I love both of these, especially the art styles and storylines!
here are some recommendations of mangas for u to read!! -fruits basket -fruits basket another (only read this if u have read or watched fruits basket!!!) -ao haru ride -kamisama kiss -snow white with red hair (they're all romance with some other genres mixed in) (i started reading mangas very recently so i don't have many recommendations but when i have more i'll include them here!!
I do hope you get to read fruits basket!! (While you're deepdiving into shoujo mangas) It's honestly one of the best 💗 Happy reading to you!!
I agree so much! Love Sailor Moon and Fruits Basket also just gives off those precious, warm-hearted vibes❤❤❤
Fruits Basket is the best indeed!
oh my god yess!!! It was my very first manga and I still love it soo much😭
So refreshing to see a booktuber who also reads manga! I find it hard to find creators who read both traditional fiction and comics.
As for manga recommendations, ‘Witch Hat Atelier’ is a lovely series! I’ve just started it myself but it’s already one of my favourite series :)
If you liked ‘Tokyo Ghoul’ volume 1, I urge you to continue, It really is a great series!
Lastly a new series I’m loving is ‘Blue Period,’ it’s about a boy discovering his love for art.
I suggest you watch throneofpages videos she reads manga and also normal books❤
I started getting into mangas back in elementary school and honestly,they’re so underappreciated.
My top 3 Manga stories of all time:

Oyasumi punpun is one of those you keep staring at the ceiling after you finish it (havent read monster yet but i was planning to)
I watched Monster the anime and loved it, one of the most complex and multi layered works in any media imo. I have yet to read the manga, but have read another manga by the same author called Pluto and its excellent.
@@akashwan I adore it! Definitely my go to for recommendations. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll check it out 😁

Monster is amazing 😭
I absolutely love the diversity of your channel.

Yes!! She should definitely read this, Yotsuba is one of my favourite manga and i’m sure she would enjoy it 😄
I second this recommendation. Yotsuba to! is funny and wholesome with a little bit of tough love.
A few recommendations:
- Kitchen Princess by Miyuki Kobayashi
- Cardcaptor Sakura
- Kiss of the Rose Princess
They're all romance and hopefully you'll enjoy them.
thank you!!

i second this!! however it's very long and still ongoing, the story moves very slow. proceed with caution asf LMAO
thirded!!!
the promised neverland and a silent voice honestly are amazing mangas to get into :)
agree, the promised neverland is great
i feel like you’d really like The Promised Neverland and The Girl From The Other Side 💛 also FullMetal Alchemist is really action packed with lots of plot twists
Fullmetal Alchemist is also full of feels! ;_;
The promised neverlan is sucks. Why you recommend that to her?
@@immanuelkant8560 so??. You mean she need to read this as a "Classic" manga??. Ok i get it the beginning of the manga is so good. But at the end, oh men, all we need now is just like 'We Love God Emma'. And did i need mention that most of the character at the end doesnt have any personality than just 'We love Emma. She is a God.
Anyways im really sorry if my grammar sucks. I am not a native English. And i think i kind misunderstood your comment. Like the word affiny, i use Google and from many meanings as that. I would say its 'similiar'. Im really sorry though if you doesnt mean like that

@@immanuelkant8560 ok. Now let's talk about how useless Rey. Rey is my favorite character because he is just so realistic. But after that you know, he is much more like a side Chara that just like "Ow hey Emma a i am in your side, hahaha thats funny Emma". Like whats the fuck. Rey you have personality, you are not side character. Please STOP.
Anyway how about your thought about Rey???
have you read "A Silent Voice?" its one of my fav manga
When she mentioned Komi Can't Communicate, my immediate thought was OH MY GOSH BUT YOU HAVE TO READ A SILENT VOICE!!!! 😁
We've seen Classics Emma. And right now, Otaku Emma 🇯🇵🍙
Anyway, I've read hundred manga series especially seinen (adult male), Shonen and little amount of Shoujo. For Shoujo teen romance manga I recommend you Orange.

ADIT.damn, that name is so classic in here
Old, but still my faves: "Kingdom" by Yasuhisa Hara (orphan, war, making the biggest dream come true, gorgeous art, there is no english publication, I read it in French, but you can find english one via internet), "Orange" by Ichigo Takano (friendship, mental health, small scifi element), "Fullmetal alchemist" by Hiromu Arakawa (the art is awesome, some in a funny way, some normal and it fits, huge inside joke community), "Ibitsu" by Haruto Ryo (urban horror legend), "Another" by Yukito Ayatsuji (paranormal), "Alice in Borderland" by Haro Aso (escape room vibe), "The girl from the other side" by Nagabe (cosy story, human girl in a world of monsters)- these are the firsts that came to my mind. Enjoy :)
Thank you so much!
I'm gonna check out your recommendations😊
This might be a little daunting for how long it is but One Piece is a fantastic manga series! It’s such a beautiful mixture of comedy, emotional depth, and wonder. If you’re up for one of the most ambitious tales of adventure in fiction I would highly suggest it.
Omg I’ve been thinking of starting it. But if I start it now, I’ll likely finish it 20 years from now which would likely cause a midlife crisis 😩😩
@@accidentalfrenchfries Right now would actually be the perfect time to start it. After the current arc, the story will be entering its final stretch, so it’s very likely to end in the next 5-8 years. That way you’ll get to experience the majority of the story now and experience the final years with everyone else.
Hey Emma! I started reading manga this year and my first one was The Girl from the Other Side. It's a heartwarming, quiet, gothic fantasy about a little girl and a gentle monster. I think you would really enjoy it. But beware the last volume doesn't come out till November and i can assure you, the wait until then is a loooong one for me.
yeah, I'm gonna be "that guy" that recommends Berserk but its not for everyone to say the least..
I love that you’re getting into manga!! I’d really recommend blue period, blue flag, and toilet-bound hanako kun. They’re all wholesome but with also angsty at times as just overly enjoyable to read. Plus the art is great
I recommend “maid Sama”! I’m still making my way through it and I’m really liking it:)
you're like an beam of warm autumn light on my ancient desk
*rolls up sleeves* Finally someone who actually wants my manga recommendations!
Since you've mostly read romance manga so far, I'd recommend:
A Silent Voice (Koe no Katachi)
Kaichou wa Maid-Sama - this one's a bit odd, but a classic
Snow White With the Red Hair (Akagami no Shirayukihime)
Orange by Takano Ichigo - this one only has 5 volumes, so you wouldn't have to commit to a very long story
Fruits Basket - I sadly haven't read this yet (only watched the anime so far), but the story is PHENOMENAL
Kiss Him Not Me (Watashi ga Motete Dousunda) - also very weird but I enjoyed sooo
And then I thought I'd throw in some other genres if you ever wanted to leave the realm of romance manga :P
Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic
Bungou Stray Dogs (Literary Stray Dogs) - all characters are named after classics authors (at the beginning it's only Japanese, later they throw in English/American and Russian) and have superpowers based on one of their books, the actual story is about detectives and the mafia
Not sure if you'd like sports manga, but I recommend Haikyuu!! (volleyball) and Kuroko no Basket (basketball)
Thanks for a fantastic video as always! I would love it if you made more manga content, as long as you enjoy it too :)
tokyo mew mew is my absolute favorite, reading it as a kid was what made me fall in love with manga ㅠㅠ
I remember watching the Anime adaptation of Tokyo Mew Mew with my daughter when she was a little girl!
We loved it.
Haven't read the Manga, though, sadly. Yet....
I was so in love with the anime of this too!! Still remember the openings 😂
I quite recommend the One Piece manga. I loved it as a kid, still love it now.
I suggest you read The Promised Neverland and SPYXFAMILY. I hope you have fun reading more manga!
You look so cute having the high ponytail😍
Recommendations: Orange, Dreamin Sun, I Hear the Sunspot, Bloom into you, The Promised Neverland, Shortcake cake, I Will eat your pancreas, Flying witch, a silent voice, My Brothers Husband. 😊💗
I read Fruits Basket back when the pandemic first began which was just what I needed and sent me on a whole manga/anime journey. It has some romance in it but is more a story of found family, character growth, and relationships. Another one you might like is Yona of the Dawn. Again, it does have romance in it but is more an adventure and coming of age story. It's a lot of fun! Loved the vlog, thanks for sharing!
My daughter got me hooked on Black Butler, it's my first manga series, love it!!!
First time commenting on your video! I've been enjoying your videos lately. I have 2 manga recommendations.
If you like fantasy, quirky characters, a little romance, character development, adventure: Akatsuki No Yona.
If you like rural Japan life, Japan culture & languange, quirky & lovable characters (especially the kids), humour, : Barakamon.
Btw, both have anime adaptation (albeit only a few snippets adapted from the manga). They're fun too watch too.
whoa! I've never been this early for anything in my life! your uploads are the highlights of my days! keep safe! 🌼🌼🌼😘✌️
My tbr is everest tall because of you. It's time to add manga now
I recently found your channel and absolutely fell in love. I realized that you talk a lot about one hundred years of solitude, and I really wanted to know your opinion about the age range, because I think the book must be amazing, and I am really looking forward to reed it, but I am not sure about the age range. Thanksss. If someone else could tell me as well I would be very glad too :)
in spain we usually have it as required reading in our last year of high school so i'd say starting from 17 you're fine to read it!!! you can obviously read it before but be aware that the content is sometimes a bit violent and there are a few hard scenes that might be a bit traumatizing for a very young person (i'm talking 12/14)
@@martasgreatlibrary thank you so much!!!
@@fernandagrossano7860 hope you love it!!! it's a gorgeous story full of symbolism!!
Aww this concept is sooo cute I love it
I would highly recommend Fruits Basket! Both anime and manga are just a wholesome sob fest but so worth it!
I recommend Fruits Basket! The manga ended in 2006, it had an anime adaptation in 2001 that failed because it didn’t follow the source material, and in 2019 it got another adaptation that just finished this past Monday! It’s an amazing story that deserves so much recognition and a movie will be coming out in 2022 as well. The 2001 adaptation is hilarious and still worth watching, but the 2019 one is an absolute masterpiece :)
I’m currently loving The Girl From the Otherside
My recommendations are Cardcaptor Sakura, Fruits Basket, Twinkle Stars, Yona of the Dawn, Blue Flag, Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts and Fullmetal Alchemist.
I recently read "Emma" by Kaoru Mori and highly recommend it! You would also love Ancient Magus Bride!
I would also love if you did a video where you read a classic novel and then read the "manga adaptation" of one of those novels! There are a line of American-made manga called "Manga Classics" that have a huge catalog titles (including Anne of Green Gables!) and there are also plenty of Japanese-made ones as well, like some of H.P. Lovecraft's stories.
But no matter what, please more manga videos!
M gonna check out your recommendations 😊
Ahh so excited! I hadn't read any manga at the start of the year but ive now read around 40! I absolutely adore them, i'm someone who likes to read a lot of dense classical literature so manga really helps my brain cells stay alive. I recommend the magi series - it gives me lots of seretonine!
I used to read a ton of cooking manga when I was younger and Kitchen Princess holds a lot of nostalgia for me! And- I'd like to recommend Full Moon wo Sagashite. It's about a girl who's terminally ill and dreams of becomming a singer and finds away to achieve that dream through magic. Despite the description it's really wholesome? Yes it can make youu cry but it can also make you laugh about the joys of life and all that, and the anime has an amazing soundtrack. It holds a similar place in my heart that Sailor Moon does
i recommend Silver Spoon! it's a slice of life/coming of age manga about agriculture/farming. it's completed and has about 15 volumes total
An incurable case of love is so good as a nursing student I relate to her so much and romance gets better
Because you love classical literature, as I do, I’ll recommend to you some classic retro shojo manga from the 70s, as that decade was highly inspired from classical literature.
“The Rose of Versailles” is a love story and a political drama set in the French Revolution. The main characters are Marie Antoinette and lady Oscar. It’s such a classic. It reminds me of melodramatic literature of that time.
“Candy Candy” is about an orphan girl with many adventures, it’s about friendship, love and growing up, overcoming hardships. (it’s like Anne of green gables and Oliver Twist)
“Glass Mask” is an epic story about a girl named Maya who wants to be an actress and it has so many deep meanings about acting and some of the plays that they play are from classical books such as “little women”, “wuthering heights”, “a midsummer’s night dream” and some pieces of Japanese literature.
There are many other manga from that period, but unfortunately they either aren’t officially published in English or they aren’t scanlated. Still, I want to mention “the Poe clan” that is a gothic horror about vampires from the 18th and 19th century, “Haikara San ga Toru” which is about a headstrong girl in Taisho era (1920s) who is a feminist,
“Yokohama Monogatari” that is a slice of life story of the Meiji era (Belle Époque of Japan) and one of the two main love stories is very similar to “gone by the wind”.
If you’re are interested, make a research on those. I think that you will like them.
for genres outside of romance, i highly recommend march comes in like a lion and haikyuu!! (the anime for both are also wonderful and comforting)
you have to read Emma by Kaoru Mori! one of the most gorgeous and well researched historical manga out there!
You gotta read "Orange" I wanna keep it vague but time travel, found family, heartbreak, sad times, beautiful art! You just gotta read it
I feel like you'd love 'Kimi Ni Todoke' by Karuho Shiina. It's a really cute romance/ slice of life manga and the main character is so adorable! It's definitely a fun read and the art+ covers are so pretty! Another favorite of mine is 'The Demon Prince of Momochi House', it is a fantasy/romance manga and the art is stunning
Thank you Emma. I've never read manga but this video definitely made me consider to try it.
I love how your so well read but your don’t turn your nose up at fun books like Sailor Moon. I love how you can move through genres so easily
I definitely recommend Lovely Complex!! I just rewatched the anime and it such a serotonin boosting story for me!! I kept smiling like an idiot the whole time haha
I also recommend Kokoro Connect! It has such a compelling plot!! It reads like a light-hearted manga, but it's also psychological and thought-provoking. It was also the first manga that I ever bought- I'm so glad I own the entire series ^^
What a beautiful vlog! Sailor Moon is love ❤❤❤
I would definitely love to see more of these!
I think you would love the manga "Bloom Into You", it's a beautiful lesbian romance with a lot of depth into the inner world of the characters.
Bloom Into You helped me realize I was ace
Hello Emma, recommend to you the following:
- Skip Beat! by Yoshiki Nakamura (very funny, ongoing manga)
- Aria by Kozue Amano (an absolute beautiful, warm and cozy anime)
- Gakuen Alice by Tachibana Higuchi (my childhood favorite)
- Shugo Chara! by Peach-Pit (my childhood favorite)
- Gakuen Babysitters by Hari Tokeino (super cute and short anime)
- Nodame Cantabile by Tomoko Ninomiya (it's a manga, but I recommend the anime for the music)
Enjoy your reading :)
The girl from the other side and Ì hear the sunspot are great manga's i would recommend.
I am new to manga as well and I read Witch Hat Atelier Vol. 1 - it was good, pretty good start to the series, I feel like it will be an awesome series though. Also, the art is super whimsical and beautiful ❤️ so would reccommend!
Yes I just started Witch Hat Atelier too and the art is so good and it’s such a cozy read!
I recommend "Shadows house". The anime - adaptation is currently coming out and it's super interesting.
I’ve started reading mangas recently as well! I loved the series “Last Notes”. It’s about a store that sells a magical and mysterious aroma. It contains romance, comedy and fantasy! I think you’ll like it! 😉
I would really recommend The Way of the House Husband! It’s about an ex-yakuza boss who now dedicates his time to keeping his and his wife’s house while she works 9-5. Very funny, very silly and heartwarming to watch him do everything he can to make his wife happy!
i recommend you to read Ao Haru Ride by Io Sakisaka, so so good, the ending is just *chef's kiss. You won't be disappointed. It's my all time favorite manga >
Yes! It's a good manga
love to see you enjoying sailor moon! i always recommend pandora hearts and fullmetal alchemist, but if you want more shoujo manga then i definitely recommend cardcaptor sakura and fruits basket!
Berserk (Epic Horror Fantasy)
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure (iykyk)
One Piece (classic epic fun ride)
Vagabond (badass swordsman epic)
Kaguya-sama: Love is War (rom com drama psych slice of life)
Hi, Emmie.
A few modest recommendations on my part:
Manga: Silent Voice; Ancient Magus Bride; Girl from the Other Side; My little Monster; Fruits Basket; Kimi no Todoke; Solanin; Your Lie in April; March Comes In like a Lion; Made in Abyss; Oyasumi Punpun (take care with this one. It is like reading Dostoevsky, very depressing!!!); &
Light novels: Book Girl; Violet Evergarden; I want to eat your Pancreas; I Had That Same Dream Again; &
And I recommend Bookwalker for Manga and Light novels.
I hope you will find something. Please, Take Care of Yourself and Thank You, really love your channel.📚✌
thank you so much!!
@@emmiereads こちらこそ(kochira kozo)🌹
So excited that you're doing this video! If you're looking for comforting shojo manga I'd recommend fruits basket, my teen romantic comedy, ouran high school host club, given, and maid-sama. I have a lot more recs for other genres too if you want but I'll leave it at that😂
thank you!!
Blue Flag, Blue Period and The Promised Neverland are amazing manga's to get into! I loved your video ;)
The Ancient Magnus Bride ✨🌈
Highly recommend Naruto, Attack on Titan, Fruits Basket, and any Junji Ito
I recommend Fruits Basket! It's wholesome, has a good storyline, romance and it's actually finished so no waiting for new volumes!
I also recommend Nana! I can’t believe it’s not one of the top comments, please check it out if you have the chance
Pandora Hearts is a manga that is an amazing read. It has a unique and intricate plot. I'm also very into the manga The Ancient Magus' Bride right now. Don't judge it by how it seems at first. It's really a lot deeper than it may seem. Made in Abyss is a series that is one of a kind ,but it comes with a ton of content warnings. It's also one I would recommend watching the anime first because it's a more immersive experience and does a good job of trying to tone down some of the more controversial elements. Pandora Hearts is the only manga of the 3 I recommended that is completed. All 3 have anime adaptations ,but as of now the Pandora Hearts anime is incomplete and did an anime original ending. The other 2 series have anime adaptations that seem to be coming out periodically when there is enough material in the manga for another installment. All 3 look beautiful, especially Magus' Bride and Made in Abyss with them being more recent ,and all 3 have amazing soundtracks.
I recommend Horimiya, Bungo Stray Dogs and Fruits Basket. I love your videos ❤️
i adored this! i just bought sailor moon vol 1 thanks to you! 💖💖
Read the phantom of the opera yesterday. Loved it so much. Thank you emma
so happy you loved it!!
omg you are covering ALL the bases! first classics, now manga! pop off, queen!
One Piece - it's a good time to start getting into the series. It's filled with adventure, mysteries, insane world building, and character development. Makes you laugh, cry (happy and sad tears), and just leaves you in awe on how well thought out each arc is and how it links perfectly to future arcs despite being years apart.
Currently, it's more than a thousand chapters but it's totally worth the read. Story seems a bit childish at first but once you reach near the 50 chapter mark you begin to realize that this is something special and like the protagonist's crew you somehow find yourself drawn in and to go along with the journey.
You can't pass up junji ito. He's a horror mangaki with some of the most shocking illustrations and provocative storylines I've ever seen. And to top it all off, all of his works are published in these beautiful hard cover volumes that are just perfect to collect.
Sounds good!
I'm new to Manga & just working my way through my first, Berserk, which I'm absolutely loving.
I will keep that one in mind for sure!
Agreed! Junji Ito is a master of his craft. I started with his collection of stories called "Shiver" and then never looked back, got most of his works now.
I just bought my first manga today, sailor moon eternal edition 😅 its so beautiful and amazing! I cant wait to find the rest of the volumes
Laid-Back Camp! It’s not a romance(at least what I’ve read so far) but it’s such a cozy vibe!
Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, it also one of my favorites! The romance and friendships in it are so much fun.
Also, Wolf Children. It’s a singular volume. It’s beautiful. There’s a movie as well that I’ve been itching to watch!
So glad to see you getting into manga! Hope you find a lot of things to love. And Sailor Moon too, which was what introduced me to anime and manga. If you love it, also get Card Captor Sakura, it's so adorable and sweet. And Fruits Basket. It was the first manga series I read and it's still the best one for me, such a deep story and characters.
Please make more of these videos! Our tastes are so similar so I love seeing someone who felt the same way I did while reading!
i suggest these mangas :
1-Beserk
2-Vagabond
3-Kingdom
these three have a lot of dark fight scene , Fantastic art and a great story
but for having a light drum story:
silent voice
and these too:
Promised Neverland(this one has a great s1 Anime)
Tokyo Ghoul
Haikyuu
If you ever want to dive into pulpy horror. Junji Ito is a must, his short work is incredible.
Maybe wait for Halloween though 😊
It’s funny that you’re irritated that Tuxedo mask wears a half mask and no one notice him when the whole sailor scouts doesn’t wear a mask just a sailor outfit and no one recognizes them 🤣 I still love Sailor Moon and hope you still like it as you go further into the series.
I have a ton of recommendation because this is my first time I visit your channel so Idk the genre you prefer.

Other: A man & his cat by Umi Sakurai, Sweetness and Lightning by Gido Amagakure,

I hope this is helpful I didn’t know how to categorize some of them since some goes under more than one category.
This is making me wanna reread sailor moon so badly
I recommend reading The Ancient Magus’ Bride, it’s really good!! It’s a dark fantasy anime that involves romance
Mangas omg I love you more now,big big sailor moon fan,big part of my childhood.great choice watch the sailor moon crystal anime you will love it absolutely sure you do
I recommend one of my favorite shojou mangas: Living no Matsunaga-san. 💛
Kaichou wa maid-sama is popular too! 💛
You literally convinced me to pick up manga the first time you talked about that medical one haha. Thank you, love your channel!
I think you would really like Fruits Basket, the art style is kind of similar to Sailor Moon. Also Erased is a good thriller manga
15:42 This passage feels like ASMR :)
I recently finished The Kawai Complex Guide to Manors and Hostel Behavior. It's shoujo. The humor in this series *chef's kiss*
One moment you feel each character is so different from one another but the next moment they all fit so perfectly together. Wholesome series, do give it a read when it's possible.
Finished watching few of your latest vids and now ,you have a new one, damn. Im so happpyy😊
For slice-of-life romance I really like Kimi ni Todoke, Ouran High School Host Club, Ore Monogatari and Horimiya~
Also I would highly recommend the manga by CLAMP (Card Captor Sakura, Kobato...) They have a lot of very beautiful and mostly lighthearted fantasy series
If you want more romance manga, I recommend Wotakoi: love is hard for an Otaku
Yes I second Wotakoi!! The anime is really fun too
Yes to more manga vlogs!
My two recommendations:
1. Basara (or Legend of Basara), by Yumi Tamura. If you ever come across it, I'd love for you to give it a try! It's an epic fantasy romance that uses the gender-bender trope (girl disguises as a boy). I never got to meet another person who's read it, but it remains one of my favorite manga series after many years.
2. High School Debut, by Kazune Kawahara. This is a super cute high-school rom-com that focuses on the developing relationship of the lead couple throughout high-school, rather than being about them getting together only. I don't see many series depicting healthy teenage relationships, and this is it! Also, it can be hilarious at times.
I didn’t know I needed this video, thank you ❤️
Emma thank you for saving my life ❤️
You have to watch the drama for an Incurable case of Love! It’s so sweet hahaha 🤣 and the actor is one of the finest actors in Japan who can act sooooo well in any kind of drama, love, fighting...etc❤️
First here,As always...
Was waiting for the manga video.. And here you are!!
This channel is my all time favorite comfort and cozy place!!..
And ya we will love to watch more manga reading vlogs. 🕊😇✨
You should give a try to "Honey Lemon Soda" by Murata Mayu, it is super precious and has a high school environment. For a complete opposite, you can look into "Black Buttler" by Lana Toboso. I love both of these, especially the art styles and storylines!
so amazing seeing you reading different genres, I honestly find it soo difficult to branch out
omggg hapi mari! XDDDD oh and midnight secretary??! come on emma those are quite dirty of a manga but whelp, i'm here for it XD
here are some recommendations of mangas for u to read!!
-fruits basket
-fruits basket another (only read this if u have read or watched fruits basket!!!)
