Title: ITT good manga
Post by: Lozal on June 07, 2008, 12:22:00 PM
I read:

Fullmetal Alchemist
Fushigi Yugi
Ranma 1/2
Hellsing
Absolute Boyfriend [even though it sounds really corny and shitty it was really good  powerofone;]

and I think that's it.

Which ones do you read?

most of the people here probably think 'good manga' is an oxymoron or something (given that they have the brain cells to know what an oxymoron is and come to terms with the mind-boggling cocnept)

anyway there are some really good manga if you like the more mature, darker stuff such as Gantz, Claymore, Bleach, Basilisk, Akira, Ghost In the Shell, Death Note and so forth

The action in any anime is "farily decent". It's not that hard to animate a bunch of stock ninja characters jumping at each other with katanas and yelling too much. Bleach is on the same level as Naruto.

That's like saying shit is good because it's better than diarrhea. I'm sorry if that's a horrible analogy, but you get the point.

I like anime/manga. I just don't like Bleach.

Bleach is fairly decent. It's better than Naruto, then again tons of manga/anime are better than Naruto.

D.GrayMan is cool

REBORN! is hilarious

And how come no one has mentioned Fruits Basket?! FUCKING AWESOME.

And on the note of fillers: Bleach's fillers are "better" but fillers all together suck so whatever, if the manga is available I will read the manga over the anime anyway.

Bleach isn't "mature" at all. Also, on the topic of how good Bleach is, I'm going to agree with Houdini on this, it's mediocre at best and at the same level of Naruto. The story isn't anything special, the plot/character interactions are bleh-decent. The main thing Bleach does good is unique character designs, which any manga should have anyway.

My name is KonohaShinobi and I just thoroughly bashed Naruto a few posts ago, lol.

By Unique I think he means the design and personality of the characters.

Unique characters as in the actually physical appearance of the characters. Also, the name and avatar are simply because Gin is one of my favorite characters out of all the series I've read.
