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.

relationship dynamics that i personally consider red flags: manipulation, possessiveness, controlling behavior, disrespect, boundary issues, jealousy, emotional abuse, blackmail, intimidation, bullying, coercion, poor communication, unhealthy power imbalances, obsession, dependency, toxic relationship dynamics, lack of consent

this is not a judgment of the manga itself. many are well-written, popular, or feature character growth 🙂‍↕️ i like few of these myself!!

Inspired by the popular in the 00s list, I wanted to make a list cataloguing all the manga I owned in high school. Please read to the tune of Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye.

Random shojo I inhaled as a youngster that I don't often see mentioned here.
