Re: Favorite Manga
A manhwa I forgot to include in my earlier list:
Now along with its prequel that has such a weird(by US standards) title and my fiancee and myself refer to it exclusively as Now's prequel.

Re: Favorite Manga
I don't read that much manga. There are a few books I've followed but I never got into them that much. The only one I've read in the past that I really want to read all the way through is Mahou Sensei Negima. I've also considered getting into Pokemon Special and Soul Eater, but I haven't read either yet.

That and Gantz are my two favorite.
I've enjoyed most of the time I've spent here, I hope my actions have not ruined such an experience for anyone else.

Currently it's a tie between Mob Psycho 100 and One Piece.
I've also been getting into this Josei manga called "Real Clothes". It's a breath of fresh air compared to most shojou manga I've read in the past : http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/real-clothes-r2699

Re: Favorite Manga
Keroro Gunso, Pokemon [Mystery Dungeon], and Yume Nikki are the only manga I've ever read (to my memory), being that I'm not an avid anime/manga person. I liked all three, so I suppose they're my favorites by default?
EDIT: I also forgot about the standalone manga arcs of Erin Hunter's Warriors.

Re: Favorite Manga
hey dudes i've been reading some more and i got some stuff to share
Gigantomakhia or Gigantomaxia: A short manga written and executed by the man behind Berserk, from what I understand it takes place in the future of the same universe. I have yet to read Berserk so I'm not sure how the story ties in but Gigantomakhia is amazing on it's own. It presents a story that although leaves us with many questions, it manages to catch out attention by insinuating the answers through an expertly developed ambiance of familiarity. The main character of this story is a man named Delos with a bear-like yet extremely gentle appearance who travels through the desert with a young girl called Prome. Revealing any more would be spoilers, but believe me, this manga is worth the hour or two it'll take you to read through it.
Shokugeki no Soma: Soma's Cooking, a cooking manga, follows the life of the titular Soma. This manga is really funny and carries an overall lighthearted feeling, but when it gets serious it gets serious, after all, Soma is enrolled in one of the best cooking schools in the world, where everything is decided through cooking showdowns. If you want to get into it, I advice you catch up as soon as possible, because one of the most interesting things about Shokugeki no Soma is how expertly it manages to rise your expectations for the next issue at the end of each chapter, specially during the cooking battles. Another good reason to read it is that one actually learns a lot about food! The author often goes on trips to learn more about cooking and he incorporates this knowledge into the manga, if you try any of the recipes shown i'm sure you won't be disappointed!
the rest at R-18 so they are going under the cut:

Re: Favorite Manga
Name: Yu-Gi-Oh
Age rating: 13+
Why I like: Mainly because it is fun to read and is really well made, can't really say much more to explain.
Name: Cardcaptor Sakura
Age rating: For all.(I think)
Why I like: I like it because it was the first manga I ever read and its in the magical girl and romance genre. I kind of like that category because they are usually fun to read. Also because I like the creature called Cerberus, who is so cute!!
Them two are my favourites. :)

Re: Favorite Manga
Gonna bump this for discussion purposes.
I've been reading a lot more Manga, and if I had to choose some of my favorites they would be.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable
The one thing I loved about this was that it was just pretty action packed throughout, had a really cool cast of characters (including three jojo's) and that it was oddly peaceful for a lot of it. Josuke, Jotaro and Joseph were all part of it in someway or another, and there was just a lot going on. It improved upon the bad guy of the week formula seen in Part 3 and didn't completely give us a new cast like Part 5 did. It was fun to read, plus the stand users would weren't even using their powers for evil was a nice realistic touch. If you could make food that could heal people, why use that for evil, why not use it to open a restaurant? I honestly loved Kira as a bad guy since he actually killed Jotaro, Josuke and others. He was damn near perfect.
Koe no Katachi
I think everyone's heard of this so far, but if you haven't it's a story about a kid who bullied a deaf girl while she was young and pretty much hurt her for life. He meets up with her years later to apologize before decided to kill himself, although they become good friends instead and he decided to live his life for her and try to become a more friendlier open person. It's really cute and loving and honestly worth a read or watch since it's now a film.
Strongest Man Kurosawa
A story about a 44 year old construction worker who is tired of being alone and friendless. He decides he is going to change that, but in the process gets caught up in a fight with some school kids and tries his best to lead a normal life while being attacked by kids left and right. It's a heart wrenching story of a man who just wants to be accepted by his friends and colleges but fails at many given opportunities. It's worth a read since it's also really short (90 chapters)
Oretama
Oretama is a hilarious story about the devil being trapped inside of a 19 year old's balls after a practice of sealing away evil failed. He has to make sure not to "release" her for a month otherwise the world will end. The story revolves around the devil sending many people to try and "release" the devil from his balls, including Succubus's and even herself in a dream. It's an 18+ story though kids, so don't read it if you're younger than the MC.
Oyasumi Punpun
Choco pretty much said what needs to be said about this manga. But yes, it's worth a read.
Ten
Made by the same guy as Kurosawa. It's a Mahjong manga about two sides competing against each other for control of Mahjong Parlors around Japan. It sounds boring, and if you don't understand Mahjong then it is. But if you do, give it a read. It's a great story that shows the psychological and gambling aspects of Mahjong together.
I'd put Kaiji up here, but I consider it more of an Anime than manga.

Re: Favorite Manga
Tenchi Muyo, watched it as a kid and fell in love with it. I even watched the english dub out of respect for my nostalgia.
Right now I'm reading My Monster Secret, incredible story, I'd definitely recommend it.

Re: Favorite Manga
I'm close to finishing Seikon no Qwaser. The quality last few volumes is exceptionally strong, I hope the final arc can keep up the momentum. This is probably my favorite manga.
Not an actual manga, but Fred Perry's Gold Digger, a manga-style comic book, has been my main fix for comics lately. Good stuff.
