Like the topic says, It's my 100th post so I decided to ask for the best manga suggestions to read that the users of this site have to offer. I have little to no discrimination on genre except that I don't really read Yuri/Shoujo Ai, but any good manga might change my mind. Looking forward to them!
edit: Don't hold back on the manga, people! I used to X out manga that had ecchi in them before even reading them and now I don't anymore because someone gave a couple good suggestions. As long you happened to have LIKED or LOVED a certain manga, I'm not going to turn away from it. My favorite manga is a horror/seinen with some borderline ecchi yet it's my favorite. (Umineko no Naku koro ni)

Girl Friends seems to be one of the best in the Shoujo Ai genre, as for other recommendations is hard for me to know what will be the "best manga suggestions" for you, all the mangas on my reading/completed lists are good to some degree otherwise I would have dropped them, so you could either check my lists or be more detailed about what you like, cuz I doubt You like everything

I'll give you my top 5...... okay 6
Emma Forbidden Victorian romance between a maid and an upstart in high-society
Hoshi no Samidare The Best Battle Manga Every Conceived
Until Death do us Part Bad*** blind swordsman protects pre-cognative (can see the future) from international terrorists...
Trace The first and the best. Basically what started the whole web-comic craze (outside of Korea)
Dengeki Daisy Tied with below for my no. 1 shojo. Really cute
Akagami no Shirayukihime Really heart-warming late-medieval/renaissance romance between a prince and a commoner. Sounds really cliche but the mangaka really pulls through in making it totally not. Also, the art is really good and it has the air of being fantasy though it really isn't.

Hm, let's see... I can't say for sure that they will be the best for you, but I really liked them, so...
I second Akagami no Shirayukihime.
Ludwig Kakumei slightly dark remake of the fairy tales with interesting new twists
Black Cat Nice Action Shounen
Doll: IC in a Doll
Kuragehime
Absolute Witch Nice fantasy and... the art is gorgeous.
Silver (Fujita Kazuko) great drama, but you'll need a little patience
if you mind to try:
Claudine...! is a shojo ai, but it doesn't really feel like one. The main character is a man trapped in a woman's body and it really feels that way.
Oh and if you're okay with webcomics
Annarasumanara
Orange Marmalade
Melo Holic
They are all really great
So now you chose^^, maybe you'll like some

Ares if your looking for a good story about war, i highly recommend it, pls dont mind the art, IMO the story makes up for it. If you are looking for great action manga with best friends fated to fight eachother, i recommend Alive: the final evolution, no matter how tough you are, you will cry or be very sad about the outcomes of the main character and his best friend, once again i highly reccomend this manga, and i think it is better than naruto (yes i said it) .

Anyway if you like Eden no Ori, Highschool of the Dead might interest you.

My favorite manga of all time would be Psyren but unfortunately it was axed .
I also like very much Zennou no Noa but I haven't seen a new chapter on this one since I started reading it. I don't have a clue why there aren't any new chapters though.
The rest of the really good stuf I know are pretty much mainstream so you probably already know them and/or already were recommended.

I feel like I didn't get all my real recommendations out, here are some more from me (though I don't hold them all to the esteem that I hold those in my first post)
Akumetsu One man comes up with the solution for rampant political corruption, Thousands of murder/suicides
Liar Game Very psychological clever manga. Like Death Note or Detective Conan on Steroids.
[m]Green Boy (IM Jin-Gook[/m] Coming-of-Age Boxing/Romance story. My no.2 webcomic next to Trace
Vinland Saga You know how Oda-sensei got inspiration for One Piece by reading about these guys as a kid? Well now I understand why.
Gyon-woo & Jik-nyu Another cute romance webcomic. Fantasy/supernatural in frame.
Double Arts One of the greatest losses to the manga world. Really promising manga that got axed before its time
Nineteen, Twenty-One I promise, this is the last webcomic/romance. The couple are the ages in the title and they love taking care of stray cats. Completed
I also second/third/ect. recommendations for: Alive: The Final Evolution, Beelzebub, The Breaker(not ":New Waves" though), Orange Marmalade, and FMA.
Annarasumanara and PSYREN were both good but one was axed and one will never be translated due to requests by the author.
If you're looking for a nice one-shot read Vahlia no Hanamuko, done by the same author as Akagami no Shirayukihime.
