Recs if you like Paradise Kiss, Vol. 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."

pink, sophisticated & sometimes fatale <3 (added some essential nonfic & poetry!)

Shoujo and Josei series everyone should read.

List inspired by @Lady_of_the_Library's club post. Recommendations provided by the PB community! These stories are intended for adult readers (18+) and often feature realistic, mature romantic relationships, complex emotional situations, and sometimes explicit content.

A collection of the most influential shoujo manga from the 90s. Magical girls were big, but there's more than that! ⚠️WIP, I'm happy to add any suggestions!

Note: I'm including volumes with their first publication or serialization date in Japan in the 90s. Some may have been published into the 2000s, or they may not have been officially translated until later.

Manga that have anime adaptations.

a list of a 99 manga's incl. ; some classic must reads , all kinds of genres to try , old and new

try out all of them to maybe find some new faves

Ah, manga. Enjoyed by the old and young alike!

Let's look back over the years, from classic titles like "Sazae-san", to current reads such as "Kimetsu no Yaiba" (Demon Slayer).

I'm hitting up the oldies first, so feel free to leave suggestions in the comments as I slowly add titles!

Some listed here may be for a language other than English, so these will be placeholders. If you dont see some here, then it may not be on GR or I just added interesting one due to space.

Space for 16 more!

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.

Stories that teared me up and made me stare at the wall

All manga that features romance!

I love fashion and I take inspiration from anywhere, manga included
