Recs if you like Chihayafuru, Vol. 1 (Chihayafuru, #1)...

Manga isn't just for kids! These are titles intended for more mature audiences, including my personal recs and influential, well-known and bestselling titles that are available in English. Whether it's frank discussions of mental illness, abuse, LGBTQIA+ issues, violence, sexuality, horror or dark fantasy, these are manga that either originally ran in seinen (young adult men) or josei (young adult women) magazines, or I've otherwise broadly categorized through research as "not for for kids."

Shoujo and Josei series everyone should read.

Top rated manga / manhwa favs from someone who considers themselves a connoisseur of sorts. Ranging from cute and family friendly to deraged. Of course not in order. I am only adding the 1st volume per series but TRUST you have to read on...

Manga is a really good medium for tournament stories — serial release let's these tournaments have the space they need. I got really into this genre as a teenager and sports manga was the way I learned anything about any sport since I have always been a massive nerd.
