Hello there ladies and gents,

I need something to read because of the simple fact that...I'm completely bored.

I prefer something in the Seinen/Mature/Shounen/Action/Supernatural category. However, I'm pretty much open to anything as long as it's not Romance or other depressing stuff.

Plz do not recommend obvious reads like Vagabond/Berserk/20th century Boys/blablabla. I've read them all. And by all, I mean really A-L-L.

So come on, hit me with your best Sho-manga-t

Hmm, it might help to have some of your lists public but I'll try to recommend some ^^

Jormungand
Seirei no Moribito - for some reason this is shounen, but it's very seinen-esque.
Subarashii Sekai - Asano Inio is known for his rather depressing stories, but I remember this one lacking in that department.
Sumire 17-sai!! + Hinamatsuri - both hilarious seinen
Nobunaga no Chef - a tiny amount of romance, most of the focus is on diplomatic affairs.
Shuto Heru - a minuscule amount of romance in this one as well, but this one is very good.
Hatarakanai Futari
+a no Tachiichi - Shoujo, but it's pretty funny and it meets your other preferences. Takes a stab at the reverse-harem/otome game genres. No romance for the lead.
Oumagadoki Doubutsuen - The oneshot is good. The rest, not so much. The author also writes [m]Boku Hero Academia[/m].
Stravaganza - Isai no Hime

But awesome reccs, I haven't read a single one of these.

Quote from itsugo09
If you want more you can see them in my list ...


I´ve read most of these (GTO being my absolute favorite). I will definitely take a look at your list, seems like we have similar tastes.


Y'all welcome to recommend some more. I'm greedy and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

I've recently just discovered this and now want to rec it for everyone who's looking for something similar:

Helck (Ongoing Fantasy Shounen with one of the best female and male MC's in a long while. It's really funny but because the plot and world building is really well thought out when it becomes more serious it's not a 180, also my gosh, the tears I've shed for this.)

And some other interesting manga:

Muhyo to Rouji no Mahouritsu Soudan Jimusho (Complete Shounen Supernatural that's quite a lot of fun)

Shoukoku no Altair (Ongoing Shounen Historical in Turkish like place that has really beautiful action sequences and is very rich)

Sidooh (Ongoing Shounen Historical in end of Edo era that is at first quite dark and then moves more towards action. It also has really nice action sequences)

Yeah, those seem to be the lesser well known action manga that I read. Anyway good luck in finding great things to read.

Kyou kara Ore wa


Man...I just..love you for mentioning Kyou Kara Ore Wa. My all time favorite which I've re-read probably 8 times.

Thx for the reccs, I've read pretty much all of them (you have pretty good taste) except Kingdom.

buuuuut I haaaaaveee. Or I have read all Mangas that are worth reading. Same thing, ha-ha.

Interesting list though, I have read most of them...except for a chosen few like Tripeace, Superior, Stealth Symphony etc etc.
