I'm in dire need of some new entertainment to read and I've been on a comic kick recently. I've read some manga and I'd like to get some more, rather than just stumble into things once in a while.

I think I enjoy action manga, though I get bored with the fights pretty quick. I'm interested in every genre I suppose, as long as it's interesting. I'll list what I've read and enjoyed here, moreso you'll have an idea of what I'd be into, not to tie me down to that genre. Really I'd love to broaden my horizon, but this is slop I'm looking for - easy reading.

  • Fullmetal Alchemist
  • Mieruko
  • Berserk
  • Detective Conan
  • One Piece (though since dressrosa I've not been as into it. Mainly reading out of habit these days)
  • Early Naruto (In general I feel like Shonen start off with an interesting premise and then it does a timeskip and it becomes all about power levels. I don't understand why they do that.)
  • Yu-Gi-Oh!
  • Shaman King
  • Junji Itos stuff
  • Dragon Ball (should have stopped after the cell games tbh)
  • Delicious in Dungeon
  • Death note
  • solo levelling.

And recently I read solo leveling which was some nice enough isekai slop. I wouldn't mind getting a good isekai recommended.
I dislike fanservice though, so that eliminates all isekai more or less.

100 Girlfriends

The manga is so peak. If you watched the first season of the anime, you aren't getting the full effect -- only after GF 10 does the series really start to pick up in its absurdity (of particular note for greatness are 13, 14, 18, 20-23 -- a run of really hilarious/absurd characters), and 29). The real joy of the series is actually the interactions between the members of Rentarou's family -- it is, fundamentally, a gag manga. It also helps the protagonist is like, the most wholesome guy to ever live and also decidedly NOT a piece of shit. Also, even tho there's a silly magic premise, the fact is, the reason he's great is just that he's made it his mission to better himself, so he's not some power fantasy/self-insert/cringe character.

This season will be a taste though, especially now that 9, 10, and 11 are joining. All three are great.

This is the strangest endorsement I have ever read out of context.

Well, looks like I have to read it.
