haha. I know, it's not much. I'm going through the suggestions that you posted. I added some to my "wish list", if you'd like to see which series I added there.
Okay, sure.. Btw, I noticed that you skipped almost all series with sci-fi, huh. I guess it's not really to your taste, I see. Perhaps you might want to be more specific in your original post as to what kinda "thought-provoking" topics you're looking for. There's manga about environmentalism, about deep space, about trauma(physical, sexual, psychological, etc.), differing value systems in a certain age and so on. And all of them can be thought-provoking about life but in different ways.
True. I am not a big fan of sci-fi. I didn't want to rule it out completely though, because some sci-fi I really enjoy. (which is why I didn't include that with what I don't want to read.) Sorry if I didn't make myself clear.
As for what type of manga the problem is, I am not looking for any topic in particular.. So I can't really explain in detail what I mean. I am just looking for stuff that looks good, and makes me think. If I had to elaborate though, I'd say I'm more looking for manga with moral conflicts, unusual ways of thinking, abnormal lifestyles, and things that counter the norm. Genre's don't really bug me, as long as I find the plot interesting enough to read. (And for the most part, I am pretty ok with different types of art styles too.) Atleast, I like to think so.
