Recs if you like Parasyte, Volume 1...

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!!

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 ˂˶)

There are a lot of quests out there, and there are a lot of great graphic novels (and comics) in said quests. Here's a complete list (in progress) of all the graphic novels and comics that count toward quests!

Please send any I miss :)

Inspiration: Toxic Tropics by J. Oublié. An ongoing list of comics and manga with nature or environmental focused plots. Nature may play a small but important role in some worlds or serve as the main point of a scary situation in others. Feel free to recommend books that you feel honor The Green. Think of books that spark thoughts like "wow pretty green things" or "humans are the disease".
