Cultural phenomenon mangas that have become global household names over the years. All of these series have defined or impacted the animanga culture globally, in one way or another. From international movie releases, live-action adaptations, and instantly recognisable titles, these are the mangas to read if you want to sound like you know what you're talking about. Mainstream? Starter pack? Maybe, but they're pop culture icons for a reason. Believe it!

Suggestions and discussions welcome!!

Notable comics, graphic novels and mangas to get into the genre. This format of books is so underrated, so I wanted to create a diverse list of notable works across the history of 'comics'! I tried to highlight nonfiction and fiction works that are recognizable to the widest variety of people (mostly because of their adaptation), while also adding less widely known books. The goal of the list is to help find at least one 'comic' you want read, if you don't really read 'comics'! (inspired by Les 1001 BDs by Trécarré)

This is a list of (most) every book mentioned in the video game 'Tiny Bookshop'

Manga that have anime adaptations.

I wanted to collate all the largest and greatest manga completed series with the first and last volumes to help me look to what to read next but also maybe this list will be helpful for others.

If you have any recommendations please leave a comment (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)

A collection of Manga published in the early 2000. While some portrayals of social problems might not have aged well, they are an open door to a time where many older Manga readers grew up in. They serve as a contrast to today's norms and standards and might reflect one's own journey of emotional growth.

A continuation of my previous list!

Somewhat subjective list of what i consider to be the essential reads for the Shonen genre of manga, as well as what i consider to the best of the best. List will be a solid mix of old influential manga as well as newer high quality stuff that are more popular and commonly seen referenced
