Hello people!!
Just looking for some new manga to read. I want a manga that is so awesome that it leaves you breathless. In other words,I want a manga that is so good that the only thing you can complain about is that it isn't scanlated fast enough.
No Yaoi/Hentai/Smut or Gender bender. I'm not really picky about the artwork.
My lists are public so you can see my preferences.
Other than that feel free to give your recommendations.
BTW: Please keep it it to around three recommendations.
THANK YOU!!

You need to set your lists to public again, I think it has to do with yesterday's update.
I'll give recs when I see your taste.

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

1. Vagabond
The art, the storytelling, the character development...damn. The very first chapter left me speechless until I could only say one word, "More."
Because of that manga, I can only say "More". I have to type what I have to say to people now. lol j/k But you should really check that out.
2. Uzumaki
Man, when I first read this, I was like, "This is a manga? It doesn't even look or feel like any other manga I've read." And that's a good thing when you read a story so shocking that you forget it's a manga and it becomes like a horror novel with pictures. I don't want to give you any spoilers, but let me warn you, when you start reading it (And probably when you finish), YOU WILL HATE SPIRALS. I had some curtains with spirals and after I finished Uzumaki, I burned them. No joke. The way Junji Ito can make a thing like a spiral freak you the fuck out shows that the man can write. You should pick it up if you like well-written horror stories.
3. Akira
Now, pretty much everyone has seen the movie, but I bet that few people knew there was a manga. Personally, I think that the manga was better than the movie, because it explained some things that the movie left out (Again, I don't want to give any spoilers, but the person with the afro in the anime is MUCH more important in the manga)
There go my three choices for you. In case you can't find them in any stores or if you can't download them, just send me a message with your email address and I'll e-mail them to you.
P.S. Akira and Uzumaki are finished, but Vagabond are still being scanlated, so if you don't know where to download neW Vagabond Chapters, I can give you some websites

Slam Dunk is a manga that i've never failed to mention.
(I know the art isn't good in the beginning, but it gets so much better)
