Been reading it lately, and it helps reduce my scrolling time. I've hardly read any, so you can recommend really popular stuff, too.

I've read Vagabond, 20th Century Boys, Claymore (years ago), and some berserk. I just finished reading Teppu, which I thought was an interesting subversion of a lot of anime tropes. I also liked that it was a short run (only 8 volumes). I guess I like seinen, but I've also enjoyed josei like She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat.

Anyway, no shonen please. Hard mode: please nothing about high school

I skew into older stuff when it comes to manga since it's easier to find translated than the anime adaptations lol

Well, Urasawa's Pluto is a retelling of an Astroboy storyline, if you're interested

For some reason, I didn't put it together that there was a comic for that one lol. I might end up reading it instead of watching the OVA adaptation
