@@ogprxd it’s challenging because it makes you face topics that are very uncomfortable. Such as depression, suicide, addiction, and incest and child abuse. And it talks about it in a grounded way. From what I understand, the original author faced many of these challenges personally.
What makes the No Longer Human more terrifying. is that the author (Osamu Dazai) who was going through hard times in his life, drowned his wife and himself right after a day of the publishing of his book. Some say No Longer Human was Dazai’s suicide note.
I am newly dipping my toe into manga, so these single volumes are a great way to test the waters so i can figure out what I like. Based on these recommendations I am going to pick up Sandland, All You Need is Kill, Zelda, Walking Man, and the Junji Ito books which were already on my list.
Oh boy, I got some suggestions for ya. I noticed some of your suggestions required previous knowledge of an existing series so the ones I will suggest are completely stand alone single volume series: Smuggler by Shohei Manabe, it's the story of a group of men in charge of moving a dangerous criminal from one place to the next. Dont wanna spoil what happens, just look at the art and I guarantee you'll buy it. Color of Rage by Kazuo Koike, it's about 2 slaves (one African) that escape their slave ship as it was passing close to japan and their story as they try to avoid their captors in a new land they know nothing about. Lychee Light Club by Usamaru Furupa , this manga is literally the symbol for the manga collectors subreddit. Its reeeeeeeally weird, gory and sexual. The story can be a bit out there for some but give it a shot if you want something extremely unconventional. Scumbag Loser by Mikoto Yanaguti, keeping with the unconventional theme, this is a horror manga about a guy who is an absolute scumbag, the story follows him in his neverending quest to be the biggest piece of shit in the whole school. But why then does this gorgeous girl keep following him around? Maybe there is more to him than what's on the surface. Or maybe the girl is not the angel she appears to be. Velveteen and Mandala by Jiro Matsumoto, Omar has this manga in his collection. And I'm pretty sure if he ever reviewed it, UA-cam would take down his channel. Check it out and find out why. The story makes no sense at first but comes together at the end. It's one of those series like FLCL that you need to pay more attention to the meaning behind the images than to the images themselves. Opus by Satoshi Kon, sadly we will never get a proper ending to this manga since we lost SK but I feel like the story is better as it stands without its ending. It's about a mangaka that realizes the characters in his stories suddenly developed free will. And now he gets dragged down into the stories he wrote.
I read solanin last year and it did really resonate with me as a 20 something who doesn't know what he is doing in life. Just found your channel, loving the content and seeing a fellow collector recommend stuff
i decided to purchase all you need is kill about a week ago before knowing anything about it. i saw the art and thought it was beautiful. im so glad i took the gamble and purchased it. will be reading it asap
Viz really needs to translate and release Dead Man’s Questions, Thus Spoke and pretty much all of the other Araki spin off mangas, HELL EVEN THE LIGHT NOVELS, like Jorge Joestar, Purple Haze Feedback, the Heaven one (forgot the name)
if u enjoy any of the louvre works mentioned here i really liked the one they did for innocent! the artwork is BEAUTIFUL, its a standalone work and if u like it u should definitely check out innocent (and/or the climber by the same author) i loved it so much i made a manga recap video on the climber and am working on a really cinematic one for innocent as i type this!
I've been back and forth about whether or not I want to pick up Ito's No Longer Human. This video convinced me to go for iit!! I know my personal favorite single volume Ito work is Gyo!
@@kingambrosius9125 For me, Remina is B-tier for Ito. It's definitely horrifying and I don't regret getting it, but the story is silly to the point of breaking immersion in places and I didn't enjoy it as much as Tomie or Uzumaki.
@@kingambrosius9125 agree,remina was horrifying at the start but it started become ridiculous and fast paced towards the end. It's not as scary as ito's other works but i think it would still be enjoyable if ure not looking for something really deep.
Thanks for the suggestions! I've been getting into manga more over the past year and have generally been avoiding the really long series because of the cost and difficulty getting them from my library. I've loved Goodnight Punpun, Sunny, and have a lot of Junji Ito's work. Definitely gonna check out some of these!
If you're like me, and have read damn near everything, then you've already read Takahashi Tsutomu's Alive. It's a 10 chapter, one volume series that you absolutely should read. I recommend it to all your viewers as well
I've been eyeing Cats of the Louvre for a while - glad to hear someone talking about it! I'll have to check out that deeper review you did of the one-shot. The Walking Man also sounds good - that's probably the one I took away the most here! Thanks for the recommendations.
Always looking for short manga to read 🙌🏻 Appreciate the vid! I'm gonna give sandland and the walking man a go 😁 and finally cave in and get Solanin lol. Mujirushi by Naoki Urasawa's worth the read, id say ✌🏻👍🏻
I just started my manga collection and I bought JJBA part 1 and 2 as well as Rohan at the Louvre and its a great book the cover is great and the art is beautiful
Same with uzumaki it's actually 3 volumes in Japan and there was a English print of the three volumes but they were flipped around and not in the original format
Inio Asano also has other one volume series that are great, like girl on the shore,downfall, nijigahara holograph. I'm currently reading a one volume series called utsubora which so far is pretty good!
This might be the best manga-related video I've watched, something other than a show-off of collections although that is valid to this feels more impactful.
I already have No Longer Human on my TO BUY list, so I'm glad its getting a good recommendation. I love me some Junji Ito. I think I will have to add Sandland and Gigantomaxia to that list now. One of my favorite single volume works is Domu: A Child's Dream from Katsuhiro Otomo.
I've been interested in picking up All You Need Is Kill and Planetes (although that's in two volumes), as well as Rohan At The Louvre I'm excited for Akira Toriyama's Manga Theater (Short Stories) by Viz, but I'm also worried about censorship. They LOVE censoring his art. I'm still waiting for a completely uncensored version of Dragon Ball.
Check out Abara ... has a one shot , it’s a manga from the creator of BLAME! and has the same approach of having very few words but amazing art . It was a big inspiration for Chainsaw Man as well .
Some of us live in places where shipping is extremely expensive, like over $40 per package. One-shots and omnibus are great things to add to a package when I'm consolidating an order.
Well I added you to my subscription list truly exceptional synopsis and based on the magnitude of your manga library I will come back again and again for advice and direction! :-)
It's one of the best manga I have ever read. Read it a few days ago in one sitting and have downloaded the actual novel to read as a follow up. I much prefer No Longer Human to the other Junji Ito's work.
Great channel and very pleasing listening to you Do you know of Ryuko? It's a 2 volume story about a Yakuza girl,haven't read it but heard it's a good manga
i just got into manga and havent read any manga in my life and took recomendations from this video that are uzumaki(just ordered) Dragon Ball: That Time I Got Reincarnated as yamcha, giganto maxia, all you need is kill and will do later on😁 thanks
If you're considering to buy dragon ball and stuff... Buy the box set if possible... It's cheaper or else you have to spend more if you buy single Volume one by one...
Such a great video with awesome recommendations. Some I have read and some I'm interested in. You have one of the best manga/comics related channels and I have been watching since 2015 or so. Great knowledge and relaxing voice, definitely deserves more views on the videos :)
The only 1-volume manga familiar to me in the list is solanin. Junjou Ito books had been in my to-read list for so long..... Now I know can choose which to read first. Thanks for the recommendations. Might check out the others too.
The best out of his works are definitely uzumaki and no longer human. avoid tomie as it’s not that great at all. Gyo is a 50/50 some people like it some people don’t. The dissolving classroom is alright, fun quick read but not gripping. Remina is good but not amazing, good science fiction, bad horror. Venus in the blind spot is a good collection of stories but shiver is much better. Smashed Is just not good, end of story. Frankenstein is a good rendition if you’ve never read the source material, otherwise it’s a bit of a let down personally as I read it after I read Mary Shelly’s original Frankenstein. Fragments of horror is pretty good, nice collection of stories. This is just my opinion and your experience may be completely different:)
Thanks for your furthers recommendations, echo 🙂 This will somehow help in my priority list since we might have similar tastes anyway, haha. I've read the orig Frankenstein... But I'll check it out anyway, but won't make my expectations too high. Thanks again 😁
Nice list! How about some true shoujo royalty and Moto Hagio's The Heart of Thomas? Granted, like most of the Fantagraphics' Moto Shagio releases it only had one print run and now seems to sell for hundreds of bucks--but it is a brilliant manga, by perhaps the most important shoujo manga-ka (who deserves to be better known here) and a must for anyone with any interest in classic or shoujo manga.
I was turned off by Asano’s work after finding out how dark goodnight pun pun was, so I never gave solanin a shot. But after hearing that the characters are in the exact same situation as me, I’ve ordered it right after watching your video!
Punpun was truly like a hard read but I couldn't put it down it was an interesting experience to say the least. I kind of felt a similar empty and void feeling like I felt when I read the No Longer Human novel and then also with the manga, but the ending to me actually felt bitter sweet and hopeful, and I really still don't know exactly what punpun was all about. I want to read Solanin too, Punpun was a dark read but it was honestly impactful and very powerful on so many levels.
@@yakka4222 ok! I really recommend blue exorcist it’s definitely one of my favorites and it also has an anime if you want to check that out as well. And seraph of the end is really good, it also has an anime too!
I’m glad Sandland was on the list. My additions that both happen to be in the romance genre would be ‘The Wize Wize Beasts of the Wizarding Wizdoms’ and ‘The God and the Flightless Messenger’
Love SandLand! “All you need is kill” is solid. Better than the movie, for me. I have different single books of Taniguchi, like Guardians of the Louvre, A Distant Neighborhood and A Zoo in Winter. Solonin is deep, my favorite single issue manga. I am a Junji Ito fan. Still have to read Frankenstein and Tomie yet. Have to buy his version of No longer Human. Can compare it to Usamaru’s manga afterwards. Thank you Ryley!
All You Need is Kill and Rohan at The Louvre are great manga, their artwork is amazing and their respective stories are pretty good. As a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fan, Rohan is one of my favourite characters in the JoJo verse so reading the Rohan manga made me appreciate the manga more. I love Obata's artwork in All You Need is Kill. As a Zelda fan, I read A Link to the Past manga a couple of years ago. I love the colours and the size of the pages for the manga however, I felt the story fell flat in my opinion but then again, my expectations of Zelda's stories are low. I still have yet to read Solanin and Uzumaki so I will get around to reading those soon. You've persuaded me with the Walking Man and No Longer Human which I put on my 'to-read' list.
I don’t know if it’s your read but a single volume manga I really liked is called 7 days and it’s just a nice cute and wholesome book, it’s a BL but it was just a fun book that once I picked up couldn’t put down
guys, no one talks abt hagio moto it’s so sad. she does good short manga that have the best hardbacks translated in english. look into otherworld barbara, poe clan and the heart of thomas 😞
Uzumaki is an Omnibus it had three volumes in Japan and it actually had an old print of the three volumes in the us that were flipped around and not in the original format
Yes, and Solanin and All You Need Is Kill were originally two volumes each in Japan. I wasn’t limiting myself against omnibus editions (outside of the DeathNote all in one).
The fact that while watching the video, I was reading Uzumaki for the 3rd Time. I mean he said buy uzumaki and I literally had the same thing in my hand.
Besides the facts of how good his reviews and recommendations are, The intro is what gets me every time 10/10
Lol same. It’s really wholesome to be honest
Yes
No longer human is such a challenging yet satisfying read.
wym challenging ?
@@ogprxd it’s challenging because it makes you face topics that are very uncomfortable. Such as depression, suicide, addiction, and incest and child abuse. And it talks about it in a grounded way. From what I understand, the original author faced many of these challenges personally.
@@MICOXD That sounds interesting actually
@@ogprxd the book the manga is adapting is based on is also titled “no long human” and it is considered a Japanese classic.

It's crazy to read phantom blood then read Rohan at the louvre he's evolved so much as artist and writer
I appreciate this. I’ve asked bookstores about what single volumes they have and they usually don’t know.
No Longer Human is barely even a horror manga and yet one of the best works of Junji Ito. His way of adapting the novel is beautiful
Oh boy, I got some suggestions for ya. I noticed some of your suggestions required previous knowledge of an existing series so the ones I will suggest are completely stand alone single volume series:

The Swamp by Yoshiharu Tsuge is a great series of short memorable stories that linger with you
Definitely getting solanin after watching the video! Thanks a lot!
Heard about No Longer Human a few days ago, this convinced me to pick it up
hey, did you read it? what did you think?
Always looking for short manga to read 🙌🏻
Appreciate the vid! I'm gonna give sandland and the walking man a go 😁 and finally cave in and get Solanin lol. Mujirushi by Naoki Urasawa's worth the read, id say ✌🏻👍🏻
The Box Man by Imiri Sakabashira has to be one of the wackiest short stories manga I've read. Its a nice little hardcover released by D&Q
Thank you for your recommandations, Rohan at the Louvre really caught my eye !
Just gonna like this and save for later since I can't watch it atm.
Same lol
I just started my manga collection and I bought JJBA part 1 and 2 as well as Rohan at the Louvre and its a great book the cover is great and the art is beautiful
I was just looking at articles about this very subject. Keep up the great work.
Same
The All You Need Is Kill is technically an omnibus. In Japan it was published in two separate volumes.
Not only in japan. I have 2 book version from poland.
Same with uzumaki it's actually 3 volumes in Japan and there was a English print of the three volumes but they were flipped around and not in the original format
It’s 2 volumes in Turkey too
that happens a lot in english releases for some reason
It's still two volumes for the English release
A single volume I really love is My Broken Mariko. It is very emotional and very well written! I highly recommend it
this is awesome i was just thinking about searching a video for something like this
Inio Asano also has other one volume series that are great, like girl on the shore,downfall, nijigahara holograph. I'm currently reading a one volume series called utsubora which so far is pretty good!

Great list i would also recommend memories of emanon ,goodbye eri and look back
wow! your videos are nice, informative, and you pitch the work without spoiling the whole thing! very nice!
New library has so much space! Can't wait for it to be filled with more shelves and books. 😂
Have read about half of them. Great recommendations. Love rohan
Here to plug Not Simple by Natsume Ono! Great self-contained character drama about a broken family and a wandering son
Thank you for this video I finally pulled the trigger I'm excited to start reading some manga

I have to look for that Link to the past book, looks amazing!!!
Man you mentioned a lot of titles that I am completely unaware of! I'm still an amateur in this. Thank you for the recommendations!
My #1 goal is to help introduce people to new stories, so I’m very happy I could help
Nice! I already have some of those books,whether it be ebook or hardcover. Also passed this video on to a few people 😊
Great video idea and excellent execution!
7:57 also guys there’s a movie about it
Tom Cruise and Emily blunt Star in it
This is so helpful. Thank you!
the walking man is the manga equivalent of lofi hip hop
I am going to check out The Walking Man and maybe also the Zelda manga. Thank you for the recommendations, good sir.
I've been tempted to read No Longer Human adapted by Junji Ito.
It’s amazing, changed my life
Read it, very impactful
It's one of the best manga I have ever read. Read it a few days ago in one sitting and have downloaded the actual novel to read as a follow up. I much prefer No Longer Human to the other Junji Ito's work.
I know im 2 years late, but i think Goodbye, Eri is a GREAT one shot. Definitely a must read
This is great! More videos like this please. I just bought "All you need is kill" thanks for the recommendations
Great channel and very pleasing listening to you
Do you know of Ryuko? It's a 2 volume story about a Yakuza girl,haven't read it but heard it's a good manga
Yeah I wasn’t a fan and sold it a while ago
My mom loves Cats of the Louvre! I just read it and it's such a lovely book
Amazing video as always. Keep this excellent work.
Thanks for the suggestions, I am going to get Rohan at the Louvre !
Lol I was just scouring around the web 2 days ago for this so thanks!
saving this video for later thansk for the recommendations!
If you like Taniguchi's Walking Man, you should check out his Furari if you haven't already. It's even more serene and relaxing
All You Need Is Kill. I really enjoyed Edge of Tomorrow so now knowing this originated from a Manga makes this story a must-read.
I was already considering getting uzamaki and this video made me get it
i just got into manga and havent read any manga in my life and took recomendations from this video that are uzumaki(just ordered) Dragon Ball: That Time I Got Reincarnated as yamcha, giganto maxia, all you need is kill and will do later on😁 thanks
If you're considering to buy dragon ball and stuff... Buy the box set if possible... It's cheaper or else you have to spend more if you buy single Volume one by one...
This video makes me want to read every book that you've mentioned. Thanks.

The only 1-volume manga familiar to me in the list is solanin.
Junjou Ito books had been in my to-read list for so long..... Now I know can choose which to read first.
Thanks for the recommendations. Might check out the others too.
The best out of his works are definitely uzumaki and no longer human. avoid tomie as it’s not that great at all. Gyo is a 50/50 some people like it some people don’t. The dissolving classroom is alright, fun quick read but not gripping. Remina is good but not amazing, good science fiction, bad horror. Venus in the blind spot is a good collection of stories but shiver is much better. Smashed Is just not good, end of story. Frankenstein is a good rendition if you’ve never read the source material, otherwise it’s a bit of a let down personally as I read it after I read Mary Shelly’s original Frankenstein. Fragments of horror is pretty good, nice collection of stories. This is just my opinion and your experience may be completely different:)
Thanks for your furthers recommendations, echo 🙂
This will somehow help in my priority list since we might have similar tastes anyway, haha.
I've read the orig Frankenstein... But I'll check it out anyway, but won't make my expectations too high.

'Downfall' and 'The Gods Lie' are single volume manga series worth reading.
Downfall being writen by Inio Asano and The Gods Lie by Kaori Ozaki

awesome video
looking forward to the death note all in 1 edition, thanks for the recommendation
Solanin is one of my favorite manga I have ever read!
great video only one missing imo is Opus

Bit late but fax, 10/10 anime and manga literal definition of well writen, good cast and perfect fighting scenes
The original or the new one?

I go along with the intro theme all the time lol!
Super informative, can you provide more single-volume manga recommendations? Or do a recurring video so we can make this into a series!
Uzumaki is an Omnibus it had three volumes in Japan and it actually had an old print of the three volumes in the us that were flipped around and not in the original format
Yes, and Solanin and All You Need Is Kill were originally two volumes each in Japan. I wasn’t limiting myself against omnibus editions (outside of the DeathNote all in one).
The fact that while watching the video, I was reading Uzumaki for the 3rd Time. I mean he said buy uzumaki and I literally had the same thing in my hand.
