Yotsuba&! by Kiyohiko Azuma

it's hilarious.

 

[Antiwhippy]

any particular reason? I don't have as extensive a knowledge of manga as I do of western comics, and in fact as far as I am aware Oyasumi punpun is the only Asano work I've ever read. Is there some defining characteristic of Asano's work that seems at odds with what you perceive me to generally enjoy? I enjoyed Punpun for its depressing moments of aching loneliness mixed in with the casual depictions of family and social drama that resonate with me personally, and I didn't feel its oddness got in the way, like I sometimes tend to in anime and manga.

You should read solanin.

 

[Amir0x]

You should read solanin.

I'll try it out if it's from the same guy. I'm kinda curious now what characteristic themes connect his works, so I can understand why perhaps it'd seem odd I would like it

 

[Akito]

This autobiographical essay manga centers on Moyoco Anno's married life with her husband, director Hideaki Anno (Neon Genesis Evangelion). The comedic and heartwarming book follows their "otaku lifestyle" and also features an "otaku glossary" with 20,000 words.

Insufficient Direction by Moyoco Anno.

Doubutsu no Kuni by Makoto Raiku

 

[A Huge Battleship]

Zekkyou Gakkyuu, aka Screaming Lessons. Recommended for fans of Goosebumps-esque stories.

 

[Charade]

Omoide Emanon by Kajio Shinji & Tsuruta Kenji
(there is also a sequel, Sasurai Emanon)

Fushigi na Shounen by Yamashita Kazumi

The manga is composed of various episodes linked together by a godlike boy with no particular name. The boy travels to different times and places, meeting different people, letting them see a glimpse of their future or past, or the secrets of others, and bets to see if they can change their fate.

Omoide Emanon by Kajio Shinji & Tsuruta Kenji

Have a Tsuruta Kenji artbook. Good artist.

This thread is making my backlog weep.

Insecurities of growing up, life, and the complications of personal relationships. That sort of thing.

then i guess i know why I would probably like much of his work. now I just want to know why someone would think i would not! I can relate to a lot of that stuff, such as my fight with depression in my early 20s.

Eyeshield 21 by MURATA Yuusuke

Prison School

Just be aware that it's anything but sfw and ecchi as fuck

This page got me into Parasyte

 

[A Huge Battleship]

Komorebi no Kuni. Favourite presentation from any manga I've read (it's full colour throughout).

 

[Charade]

Have a Tsuruta Kenji artbook. Good artist.

Amazing stuff. I had a hard time picking a page from Omoide Emanon since everything is so detailed.

 

[KageZero]

Music of Marie, Usamaru Furuya

Yea worked on me... Great manga everyone should read it

I'm more surprised you actually knew of Oyasumi PunPun.

 

[BigDes]

Is One Punch Man anything more than a repeated joke about the dude's ability to kill anything in one punch?

Cause it looks so pretty but I read the first few and it was the same every time, does the manga develop at all?

 

[Tacitus_]

A japanese salaryman gets kidnapped by a ragtag band of smugglers and this is what happens.

Yes, that's a torpedo boat taking down an attack helicopter... with a torpedo.

This page got me into Parasyte

I was just booting up my computer to find an appropriate image for PARASYTE. Since most amazing pages contain gore or other disturbing stuff.

Parasyte is one of my favorite manga ever. Its amazing.
Some one suggest me a manga which is similar and as awesome as Parasyte.

 

[Necrovex]

Well I know what I'll be doing when I have a three month vacation from work. Thanks for this kick-ass thread, I have so much to read now!

 

[bjork]

Maybe I missed it, but no one mentioned sanctuary?

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Is Music of Marie available in the UK?

 

[Panthalassic]

Kuro by Soumatou. It's about a girl and her cat. The main story is in full colour and extras are in black and white. There's only one volume so far though

 

[Via Purifico]

Homunculus by Hideo Yamamoto

 

[Eteric Rice]

Seriously one of my favorite manga/anime ever. Doesn't rely on silly fan service, moe, or action. It had me at the end of my seat my whole way through. I picked this page because it pretty much tells you what it's about.

Sorry to be off topic, but how do you post an image "within" those boxes? One of my earlier posts was deleted I think because I didn't do this.

3. One page per post. Maybe more than one if this thread doesn't get a lot of traction but let's keep the clutter to a minimum for consistency sake. If it's a large image, put it in quotes so it won't take up the entire page. Basically just be courteous.

Haha well I guess hurray for subverting expectations then

Actually, if I recall your post, it was because of it being a watermarked image. Make sure you clean those up before posting.

I don't know, I guess I just didn't expect you to know about it if you aren't a big manga guy. Punpun isn't the most known one out there, even if it isn't super obscure for fans of the medium.

You should check out stuff by Hanazawa Kengo too since their works are kind of similar.

Thumbs up. I tried finding a good Kumagawa pic last night to post, but couldnt really find anything that did him justice. I almost posted his hand bra jeans color page but it was too nsfwish.
