The art for Attack on Titan has improved tremendously. The author himself talked about how he was turned down multiple times due to his art style even though they like the story. Right now AoT is one of the most detailed artistic manga out there with best political drama in manga history. Edit: don't search for AoT on YT. Spoilers are infesting the platform.
I'm pretty sure BL refers to all boy's love. The word you were looking for is Shonen-ai, for the sunspots manga. Yaoi is the erotica. Though in Japan they're all synonymous, but initially were all separate and meant how we use them now. You may also like Behind Story (3 vol Shonen-ai).
I have never read manga before, and I really want to try it. This is a great resource. I'm starting with Fullmetal Alchemist, but Orange and Death Note sound good, so I might pick those up too.
A recommendation I’d make in Fumetsu no anata he, or in English, To Your Eternity. It’s a story that follows an immortal being throughout his life. Along with being immortal, he can replicate anything that he has come into contact with, and can turn into people who have died, so long as they have made some sort of impression on him. Fairly philosophical/makes you think about the different scenarios and trials he goes through, and more than likely, it’ll make you cry. Was written by the same author that created A Silent Voice. I would highly recommend it, this is one of the first manga that made a huge impact on me, and I binged as much of it as I could and I’ve been following up with updates since I caught up.
*Calls up friend* "Remember that girl who did that amazing introduction to Murakami that we constantly refer to? Yeah she's got a manga line-up out now. Drop everything and watch the video!"
The category "BL" isn't just for erotic bits, there are different terms for BL. Shounen ai stories typically focus on the emotional aspects of the relationships while Yaoi typically has a focus on the more sexual aspects
You trying to have this girl cry? I read the entire series in a single night. Once I finished I cried and cried. As much as I LOVE Inio Asano. I don't recommend it to people, or I don't recommend reading a lot of his work at the same time. It's just much stress on your mental health.
From literally watching I want to Eat Your Pancreas, I can for sure say it is not a Shoujo. As a male, I found myself crying soo much (trust me, I rarely have cried watching anime). Here is a thought tho, classification of shounen and shoujo is a concept that make certain genders miss out of what they could enjoy but steer away from as they believe it is not for their gender. Many series lie between both Shoujo and Shounen and also Seinen and Josei. There is no reason to classify it as a Shounen or Shoujo. Just state the premise and people who would not read it normally may find themselves intrigued. (Sorry for the ramble)
Shoujo isn't define by romance, it's for female audience and shounen is for a male audience. You can have shoujo with no romance and fantasy and shounen with romance.
yesss, ouran and fma are amazing~ i never really felt compelled by "i want to eat your pancreas", but how you talked about it, i think i'll check it out :D
I did not know the background story from Black Butler but that certainly makes sense :D I want to start reading Noragami since I really liked the anime.
I'm not that into Naruto i think i would never watch the anime or read the manga but I know that feel you got for it, my favorite anime/manga of all time is Monster by Naoki Urasawa i been rewatching the anime every single summer since 2010 which is the year and the time of the year when a friend recommended it. It´s a wonderful well written story about a murderer
Monster is amazinggg!! T I think everyone has some feelings fr the first anime thy watched lol... for me its fma as I am crazy fr ed nd al nd my bestfriends always nags about naruto . So I think it depends😂
you like danzo karin sakura kaguya black zetsu?...I fucking hated these characters and not in the oh I still like that they exist even though the story tells me to hate them or they are villain characters I enjoy to hate or just enjoy in general like say how enjoyable it was to hate orochimaru pain obito madara kisame itachi shit like that ...no they really annoyed me and made my enjoyment of the series way worse...fuck those characters...god they were terrible
You should read Inio Asano's work: Oyasumi Punpun (goodnight punpun) or A Girl on The Shore. He's like.. Haruki Murakami version but manga. At least for me ☺☺
Lmao you know I jumped on this video straight as it appeared in my subs. I've had Orange in my sights forever but still haven't picked it up. And man I read like a volume or two of Naruto a day and it was the best month and a half ever. Do you ever read online or prefer physical? I still have a few series I want to wrap up for my collection, but after that I think I'm gonna go online or use the Shonen Jump app. I'm running out of room lol
I obviously read online for Naruto cause I HAD to keep up for fear of being spoiled. But normally I 100% prefer physical - reading on a screen hurts my eyes a lot cause I have astigmatism. Which is why I stock up on manga volumes whenever I find them for cheap! ✌🏻
My list: 1) One Piece 2) Berserk 3) Monster 4) Attack on Titan (this is my favorite anime series but the manga is really good imo) 5) Oyasumi Pun Pun 6) Hunter x Hunter (my 2nd favorite anime series) 7) JJba 8) Uzumaki 9) Fmab (3rd favorite anime series) 10) Vinland Saga Keep in mind that I've just recently gotten into the manga world and so have watched more anime than read manga, I'm currently reading Kingdom and that series might make it onto this list once I'm caught up.
Best manga is Black Clover - It may seem cliche at the beginning but turns in to an awesome anime - It has get story progression which doesn't go as fast paced as other seasonal shows we fully see these characters develop - It takes the different types of elements from all the biggest animes from the planet and mixes it all to make a total master piece - The art work for the fight scenes are incredible you can actually feel the impact turning the fights its so satisfying not many manga authors are this goof at that i art work - We receive lots of background for other characters which is awesome so we know how they fit to where they are now - Plot Twist get me hyped all the time - Loverable characters - The Power System in Black Clover is on of the greatest ever in the series it makes sense and their not going to buff a characters power for the sake of plot if they are going its either because of teamwork and stratergy or being gifted with extremly high Mana (Mana is the source of the characters power making them able to perform magic attacks) Anyway Black Clover is an awesome manga series and the anime is animating on of the bastard in the series thus they doing a good job adapting it you can watch both aniem and manga (im an anime only i only recommended Black Clover because it's my favourite ongoing anime do i might as well. I 100% recommend to give the series a try its great
I read Honey, So Sweet because of your recommendation a while back and its one of the only things I've read that has made me blush from the pure, innocent sweetness of it. OH MY GOD~ :D Love it so much. Nao and Onise are the cutest~ The art of Tsubasa still makes me weak, I ADORE IT! I need to get back into that series and read it through; I miss it so much... Naruto was the first anime/manga that I really got into and re-watching the first episode always makes me so nostalgic~ Shippuden made me a bit distraught part way through and I never completed it! T__T Someday I will! I must! I still listen to the Naruto OST to get pumped sometimes when I'm in a crap mood. LOL Is that strange?? The songs 'Morning' and 'Evening' from the OST make me want to weep with nostalgia and don't even get me started on the ACTUAL sad songs...I have a lot of emotions about Naruto. XD
I love Berserk. Just got into it a few months back. I'm very unuse to manga. While I have read a lot, I just started collecting them. If I had a favorite, it would be Berserk. Great story. Great characters. Fantastic artwork. Very surreal and macabre. I think the one thing that turns people off of it is the overbearing graphic warnings. Even though it's definitely violent, it's also an existential type of drama.
Watching your video during COVID quarantine. I see we have similar taste(Ouran High School Host Club is my FAVORITE anime of all time and I just bought the manga and Vampire Knight is a favorite manga of mine too screw the anime version of that). Thanks to your video, just bought “I want to eat your pancreas” and favorited Utsobora on ebay so I’ll snag that one later. Watched Orange(was a tear jerker) and it was amazing. Im only about halfway through your video, but thank you for making this, definitely helps me with what to read.
The Manga exhibition at the British Museum in London 2019 was EXCELLENT. Luckily, the museum released their own gorgeous, richly illustrated and informative companion book to the exhibition. It's come down in price considerably and can be found on Amazon etc. I highly, HIGHLY recommend buying it for everybody who wants to know more about Japanese culture and historical Manga, the different sub-genres, classic manga, how to read it, hidden artistic layout codes and illustration styles and especially the historical origins of a literary genre with deep cultural roots (as opposed to just neon-lights-Akihabara-ultra-modern vibes). Thanks for another great video...which I've only found a year and a half after the upload! :D
Watch one piece everyone. The editors of one piece said if you dont catch up to wano soon enough you will be spoiled in social media because it will be blowing. Its going to be the best arc of anime history. One of one piece arcs is the best anime arcs ever but this current arc would beat that one too
Tokyo ghouls anime doesn’t follow the manga you have been lied to lmao the anime tries to fit a million chapters in 12 episodes and skips chapters from the manga Tokyo ghoul anime is garbage compared to the manga, And they do get to the basement in attack In titan and it’s really good imo.
If you haven't already read them, I would so so so so recommend: Witch Hat Atelier, which is extremely sweet and wholesome and atmospheric and the art is GORGEOUS. (Think Moomin or Ghibli genre of just like, comforting, but it's also classified under shonen and has a really dramatic and compelling ongoing plot) Hunter x Hunter, which straight up has the best character writing and development I have read in anything manga or otherwise, the art starts out a little janky but gets better, and as debatably a deconstruction of the shonen genre, the story has a little bit of a slow start to establish the tropes it's deconstructing, but gets SO good. (saying that it has the best character writing i've read makes it sound like i just havent read many things but i have i promise it's actually really good) Bungo Stray Dogs, which is a lot more standard of shonen but might be particularly up your alley because the premise is that the main characters are all themed around classic authors and have superpowers based off their most famous works, and its take on that concept is really interesting imo, I'd love to hear what you think of it. And lastly this is an anime recommendation and not a manga one since the manga for it is bad and follows a completely different story, but as for shoujo, Princess Tutu!!! Subjectively, it's the magical girl genre at it's best, and in spite of being technically a children's show, absolutely manages to sidestep what you complained about in your 7 manga binge video about Sailor Moon coming across as really juvenile (which also applies to a lot of other magical girl series). It's self contained and not very long, and does a lot of really interesting meta stuff. Its premise is literally that the characters are trapped inside a story being manipulated by an in universe omnipotent author, and are trying to steer the story away from the tragic ending he plans to write them into (it's kind of complicated and hard to explain on paper but easy to follow in practice). It's themed around classic ballet and fairytales and incorporates them into its story and that story is just so sweet and the characters are so good and it's themes are incredible 10/10
I started to get into manga when my friend let me borrow/read all of Tokyo ghoul EDIT: I love this series sooo much you should read the rest it is absolutely beautiful and the covers are so well drawn
Talk to me about Naruto!!! That's my hope whenever I meet another person into anime/manga, the blasphemy that follows is: " I didn't really get into that one". But yeah, to echo your thoughts, I just need more people to talk about Naruto!
YASSSS i talk about naruto honestly too often on this channel lol i'm always starting convos about favorite characters, favorite arcs, favorite opening theme songs, etc. i should really just do an entire video dedicated to it
the tokyo ghoul anime doesn't really follow the manga (especially after the first season) and that is why i would highly recommend the manga over the anime
I'm reading Ouran High School Host Club, Black Butler, and Death Note. I love them. I have I Hear the Sunspot in my "want my read". It might be the next manga I read, sounds interesting.
Out of the manga and animation of Tokyo ghoul I would suggest the animation is better for the first season but later on it misses out information and I didn't get what was going on but it's still good to keep up with :)
i love a lot of the series you mentioned and so it makes me sure that the one's i haven't read or haven't heard of are certainly going to be good !! thank you !!
Naruto isn’t that long if you’ve read One Piece by Eiichiro Oda. It’s almost past its thousandth chapter or something and it is ongoing. I really recommend it. It is so well planned and executed that it just takes you with it. I’ve literally laughed and cried with it.
After watching your vlog, I was literally shocked because I didn't know I want to eat your pancreas had a manga and now I am thinking should I buy orange or the I want to eat your pancreas manga 🤔🤔
I’m 12 years old and I’m going to 7th grade. I have 3 volumes of orange and 3 volumes of highschool debut. I’m thinking of getting Then promised neverland. Is it a good manga? Also can anyone recommend me some manga?
Did you end up getting promised neverland? Or any other manga? I cannot recommend promised neverland considering i only watched the anime. I do recommend gravitation though . Its a 12 volume manga about this guy who falls in love with another guy after he picked up his song lyrics. After that they become in love and follow trough different concerts. Its a very fun read :)
Good stuff. I loved Orange the anime. I like that you're really diverse with your taste in literature, I'm trying to be like that too and your videos help. Thanks
I've seen your video twice. First time I turned it off because you recommended "Orange" (that passive girl ruined it for me and because of her I think the story is garbage). But now I am watching it for the second time and "I want to eat your pancreas" and "Utsubora" seem like must-have for me! So thanks for your recommendations ^-^
Shoujo and shounen dont mean what you think they mean. Shoujo means girl (manga targeted towards teen girls regardless of setting pr genre) and shounen means boy (same as shoujo just for boys)
I am new here! Thank you for sharing, I would love to see your favored anime series, aswell as recommendations! Also do you have any mangas you plan to read this year?
The art for Attack on Titan has improved tremendously. The author himself talked about how he was turned down multiple times due to his art style even though they like the story. Right now AoT is one of the most detailed artistic manga out there with best political drama in manga history.
Edit: don't search for AoT on YT. Spoilers are infesting the platform.
Yeah...it's one of most well written shonen out there
Bobby Hill oh yeah easily, it really is amazing
@@andrealorenzi453 i would say that aot is more seinen than shonen 🤷♀️
@@tinadaisy0307 Yeah it's more of an hybrid tbh...

Ah thank you! I’m not very up to date ph terminology in manga lol so that’s good to know!! 😊
I recommend assassination classroom, ancient magus bride, hallow fields, levuis and Another. Those are really good, definitely page turners.
@@greysettings9288 yes it totally would be
@@greysettings9288 yeah, you‘ll probably just cry a bit at the end 😅 but almost everyone did.
Tokyo Ghoul is a masterpiece when it comes down to the manga, although indeed, the anime adaptations were rushed therefore they suck big time.
Habasescu Andrei Tokyo ghoul re is trash though ( especially after the arima fight)
Masterpiece is a bit too much but it is very good (unless we talk about tokyo ghoul re which is not good)
completely agree
The Art was Orgasmic. Would love to read more of Ishida Sui's work. Hope we get one soon.
*laughs in Re*
I have never read manga before, and I really want to try it. This is a great resource. I'm starting with Fullmetal Alchemist, but Orange and Death Note sound good, so I might pick those up too.
Reads With Kesara Try Hunterxhunter
I think fullmetal wd be better to watch as an anime. I had trouble understanding the fight scenes when I read it.
A recommendation I’d make in Fumetsu no anata he, or in English, To Your Eternity.
It’s a story that follows an immortal being throughout his life. Along with being immortal, he can replicate anything that he has come into contact with, and can turn into people who have died, so long as they have made some sort of impression on him.
Fairly philosophical/makes you think about the different scenarios and trials he goes through, and more than likely, it’ll make you cry. Was written by the same author that created A Silent Voice.

ded inside and out ask for the Boxset for your birthday. Maybe you might get it.
Mindless
I actually ended up getting it for Christmas last year :)
An Emo yyyaay
@@nokat2788 yay indeed :)
You should read Oyasumi Punpun
I agree! I love Inio Asanos work.
You trying to have this girl cry? I read the entire series in a single night. Once I finished I cried and cried. As much as I LOVE Inio Asano. I don't recommend it to people, or I don't recommend reading a lot of his work at the same time. It's just much stress on your mental health.
Punpun is amazing, but very real and dark and for a very specific audience.
Do u think u can buy Kimagure Orange Road I have not heard many people talking about it
oyasumi punpun is not for everyone mate, don't just recommend it
Omg!!! I love black butler so much!! Lol that backstory though 😂😂 definitely gonna check out the others 😆
From literally watching I want to Eat Your Pancreas, I can for sure say it is not a Shoujo. As a male, I found myself crying soo much (trust me, I rarely have cried watching anime).
Here is a thought tho, classification of shounen and shoujo is a concept that make certain genders miss out of what they could enjoy but steer away from as they believe it is not for their gender.
Many series lie between both Shoujo and Shounen and also Seinen and Josei. There is no reason to classify it as a Shounen or Shoujo. Just state the premise and people who would not read it normally may find themselves intrigued.
(Sorry for the ramble)
Shoujo isn't define by romance, it's for female audience and shounen is for a male audience. You can have shoujo with no romance and fantasy and shounen with romance.
Correct. 100%. In fact to assume shojo must have romance is to belittle shojo and manga.
A 20+ minutes of manga recommendations awesomeness
26 min and 56 seconds
Pretty cool to see someone else like Kakuzu , you should read dorohedoro it's pretty good .
yesss, ouran and fma are amazing~ i never really felt compelled by "i want to eat your pancreas", but how you talked about it, i think i'll check it out :D
I did not know the background story from Black Butler but that certainly makes sense :D I want to start reading Noragami since I really liked the anime.
Deathnote is my number one same with orange and vampire knight! Also it’s near, not N lol. But Light and L are my favorite out of that series!
One Piece just here with 95 volumes
I'm not that into Naruto i think i would never watch the anime or read the manga but I know that feel you got for it, my favorite anime/manga of all time is Monster by Naoki Urasawa i been rewatching the anime every single summer since 2010 which is the year and the time of the year when a friend recommended it. It´s a wonderful well written story about a murderer
I’ve heard of that one! I’ve never checked it out but it sounds really cool!
If u have read Monster then u should go for 20th century boys as well. It is really good
Naruto > Naruto : Shippuden
Monster is amazinggg!! T I think everyone has some feelings fr the first anime thy watched lol... for me its fma as I am crazy fr ed nd al nd my bestfriends always nags about naruto . So I think it depends😂
@@bipratipdesarkar5041 i already read that one too

NARUTO

Thx a lot for this vid!! It really helped me pick mangas I like, now I want to buy all of them...
You should read Inio Asano's work: Oyasumi Punpun (goodnight punpun) or A Girl on The Shore.
He's like.. Haruki Murakami version but manga. At least for me ☺☺
Inio Asano are nice picks/recs, I recommend Solanin and Nijigahara Holograph.
Yesss..I just started reading mangas and I finished my first manga which was deathnote and I had no idea what manga I should read next
you should try a silent voice ( btw silent voice was my first manga)
The first manga I read was Fruits Basket and it was actually really long and I didn’t really finish it until now and I’m starting to read Devils line
Lmao you know I jumped on this video straight as it appeared in my subs. I've had Orange in my sights forever but still haven't picked it up.

I'm on book 14 of Tokyo ghoul....idk it kinda drags on after that. I'm literally forcing myself to finish and idk if ill start re:.
B hi just wondered I’m just starting Tokyo ghoul but have watched season 1 and 2 of the anime is there just 7 books or more 😊
Jack Newton 23 u should read it the anime changed to much details that are too important there’s about 25 14 of regular and 14 of re I believe
oscar ok thank you this helped me so much I’m on book 4 now
I recommend you The Flowers of Evil by Shuzo Oshimi if you read psychological manga.
Highly recommend it. :)
Aku no Hana. One of my top psychological mangas.
My list:
1) One Piece
2) Berserk
3) Monster
4) Attack on Titan (this is my favorite anime series but the manga is really good imo)
5) Oyasumi Pun Pun
6) Hunter x Hunter (my 2nd favorite anime series)
7) JJba
8) Uzumaki
9) Fmab (3rd favorite anime series)
10) Vinland Saga
Keep in mind that I've just recently gotten into the manga world and so have watched more anime than read manga, I'm currently reading Kingdom and that series might make it onto this list once I'm caught up.
I love chobits, it's my second favorite manga just under honey and clover, i found chobits to be really charming (sorry if my english is bad)
Same!! It’s very charming and cute and fun! Which is honestly all you really need
THIS IS GREAT!! I've been looking for shojos to read, thank you!
Best manga is Black Clover
- It may seem cliche at the beginning but turns in to an awesome anime
- It has get story progression which doesn't go as fast paced as other seasonal shows we fully see these characters develop
- It takes the different types of elements from all the biggest animes from the planet and mixes it all to make a total master piece
- The art work for the fight scenes are incredible you can actually feel the impact turning the fights its so satisfying not many manga authors are this goof at that i art work
- We receive lots of background for other characters which is awesome so we know how they fit to where they are now
- Plot Twist get me hyped all the time
- Loverable characters
- The Power System in Black Clover is on of the greatest ever in the series it makes sense and their not going to buff a characters power for the sake of plot if they are going its either because of teamwork and stratergy or being gifted with extremly high Mana (Mana is the source of the characters power making them able to perform magic attacks)
Anyway Black Clover is an awesome manga series and the anime is animating on of the bastard in the series thus they doing a good job adapting it you can watch both aniem and manga (im an anime only i only recommended Black Clover because it's my favourite ongoing anime do i might as well.
I 100% recommend to give the series a try its great
I will. Thanks
Kakashi, Jiraiya and my precious cinnamon bun Naruto 🦊🧡
I recommend you start reading Ao no Flag. Beautiful psychological manga that delves deeps into heavy stuff.
I read Honey, So Sweet because of your recommendation a while back and its one of the only things I've read that has made me blush from the pure, innocent sweetness of it. OH MY GOD~ :D Love it so much. Nao and Onise are the cutest~
The art of Tsubasa still makes me weak, I ADORE IT! I need to get back into that series and read it through; I miss it so much...
Naruto was the first anime/manga that I really got into and re-watching the first episode always makes me so nostalgic~ Shippuden made me a bit distraught part way through and I never completed it! T__T Someday I will! I must! I still listen to the Naruto OST to get pumped sometimes when I'm in a crap mood. LOL Is that strange??

I love Berserk. Just got into it a few months back. I'm very unuse to manga. While I have read a lot, I just started collecting them. If I had a favorite, it would be Berserk. Great story. Great characters. Fantastic artwork. Very surreal and macabre. I think the one thing that turns people off of it is the overbearing graphic warnings.

You should really try Gantz and Berserk . It's really easy to get into them .

If you like a heart warming story than i'll recommend natsume yuujinchou and for anime, occultic nine was my all time favorite

I don’t know about greatest but it is a true masterwork.
I agree with your opinion on Naruto🧡 it makes me sad that a lot of people don’t like it🥺😢
I suggest "Tomo-Chan is a girl!"
If you like slice of life and comedy that is
SergentNewVegas I love that manga ! 😭🖤
I recommend Kiss of the Rose Princess and The Water Dragon's Bride

Witch Hat Atelier, which is extremely sweet and wholesome and atmospheric and the art is GORGEOUS. (Think Moomin or Ghibli genre of just like, comforting, but it's also classified under shonen and has a really dramatic and compelling ongoing plot)
Hunter x Hunter, which straight up has the best character writing and development I have read in anything manga or otherwise, the art starts out a little janky but gets better, and as debatably a deconstruction of the shonen genre, the story has a little bit of a slow start to establish the tropes it's deconstructing, but gets SO good.

Subjectively, it's the magical girl genre at it's best, and in spite of being technically a children's show, absolutely manages to sidestep what you complained about in your 7 manga binge video about Sailor Moon coming across as really juvenile (which also applies to a lot of other magical girl series). It's self contained and not very long, and does a lot of really interesting meta stuff. Its premise is literally that the characters are trapped inside a story being manipulated by an in universe omnipotent author, and are trying to steer the story away from the tragic ending he plans to write them into (it's kind of complicated and hard to explain on paper but easy to follow in practice). It's themed around classic ballet and fairytales and incorporates them into its story and that story is just so sweet and the characters are so good and it's themes are incredible 10/10
have you ever read goodnight punpun and monster and 20th century boys and vagabond and berserk
vampire knights HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for beginners!!!!!!!!!!!!
They found manga in the erens basement after all those years its was just some manga
🤣
I started to get into manga when my friend let me borrow/read all of Tokyo ghoul
EDIT: I love this series sooo much you should read the rest it is absolutely beautiful and the covers are so well drawn
Talk to me about Naruto!!! That's my hope whenever I meet another person into anime/manga, the blasphemy that follows is: " I didn't really get into that one". But yeah, to echo your thoughts, I just need more people to talk about Naruto!
YASSSS i talk about naruto honestly too often on this channel lol i'm always starting convos about favorite characters, favorite arcs, favorite opening theme songs, etc. i should really just do an entire video dedicated to it
Kate Pfeil Yes!! Please do, a very very lengthy one!
the tokyo ghoul anime doesn't really follow the manga (especially after the first season) and that is why i would highly recommend the manga over the anime
I was waiting for Fullmetal alchemist!
I'm reading Ouran High School Host Club, Black Butler, and Death Note. I love them. I have I Hear the Sunspot in my "want my read". It might be the next manga I read, sounds interesting.
Out of the manga and animation of Tokyo ghoul I would suggest the animation is better for the first season but later on it misses out information and I didn't get what was going on but it's still good to keep up with :)
Accept it , Suwa is the best character in orange .
i love a lot of the series you mentioned and so it makes me sure that the one's i haven't read or haven't heard of are certainly going to be good !! thank you !!
I literally ordered I want to eat your pancreas on Amazon before I watched this video. When you said I want to eat your pancreas I SCREAMED
Great video and thanks for the recommendations mate :-)
1:20 shonen actually means it’s main demographic is for boys then vice-versa for shojo
Naruto isn’t that long if you’ve read One Piece by Eiichiro Oda. It’s almost past its thousandth chapter or something and it is ongoing. I really recommend it. It is so well planned and executed that it just takes you with it. I’ve literally laughed and cried with it.
After watching your vlog, I was literally shocked because I didn't know I want to eat your pancreas had a manga and now I am thinking should I buy orange or the I want to eat your pancreas manga 🤔🤔
damn where do you get these c h o n k y manga?
"its about two brothers who try to do alchemy an one of them loses their body"
*well, you're not wrong*
I’m currently reading the black butler manga, the anime is one of my favorite anime 😊
for a Shoujo I recommend is Watashi ni xx Shinasai
didn’t have Gantz >:(
For me, once I get into a manga, it’s quite hard for me to stop- like now all I think of is black butler and when a new chapter is made ✋🏻😭
So all those mangas and volumes and didn't talk about one piece.. INTERESTING!!
I’m 12 years old and I’m going to 7th grade. I have 3 volumes of orange and 3 volumes of highschool debut. I’m thinking of getting Then promised neverland. Is it a good manga? Also can anyone recommend me some manga?
Did you end up getting promised neverland? Or any other manga? I cannot recommend promised neverland considering i only watched the anime. I do recommend gravitation though . Its a 12 volume manga about this guy who falls in love with another guy after he picked up his song lyrics. After that they become in love and follow trough different concerts. Its a very fun read :)
Read ao haru ride!!!!! It brought tears to my eyes!!!! It ended and I couldn't stop crying!!!!!!
I tried it and really didn’t like it - it’s just not for me!
Good stuff. I loved Orange the anime. I like that you're really diverse with your taste in literature, I'm trying to be like that too and your videos help. Thanks
thx this helped alot
i love how you say about
I've seen your video twice. First time I turned it off because you recommended "Orange" (that passive girl ruined it for me and because of her I think the story is garbage). But now I am watching it for the second time and "I want to eat your pancreas" and "Utsubora" seem like must-have for me! So thanks for your recommendations ^-^
I’m so glad I could help! 😊
So fantastic as a newbie looking for recommendations I loved it
play it at x1.5. you can see a pretty dance
I started with death note and now I'm on fairy tail... :^D
"She comes over and they were classmates"
omg they were classmates
That was good recommendation I will surely try it . More than that your voice and expression too cute , adorable.❤😘
Why did the Black Butler back story not surprise me at all?! 😂😂😂

Shoujo and shounen dont mean what you think they mean. Shoujo means girl (manga targeted towards teen girls regardless of setting pr genre) and shounen means boy (same as shoujo just for boys)
I watched the Movie ( I Want to eat your pancreas) and now I want to read the manga very badly . 😅
I know this video is long ago but my parents recently bought me chis sweet home and I think it's pretty wholesome book :))
Yes naruto finally somebody talks about the manga !
I am new here! Thank you for sharing, I would love to see your favored anime series, aswell as recommendations! Also do you have any mangas you plan to read this year?
