I am going to leave for California in a little over five and a half hours and I will remain there for ten days. While I am there I will have no access to the internet BUT I will be able to bring an old laptop I happen to have laying around. So my question is: What manga can you recommend for me to bring to California so I am not bored all the time? I am most interested in shounen and seinen manga such as Id, Pluto, Fairy Tail, Aoi Hana, Gunnm, Mirai Nikki, Sola, ect. However I am willing to look into other genres.

P.S. I will be formally introducing myself in the introductions section when I get back home.

*I am going to be leaving soon and will not check this topic anymore.

There's Mx0, MAR (Marchen Awakens Romance), Black Cat, History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi.

And you might like Yakitate! Japan, that's the bread-making comedy manga

Where are you going in California?
Are you going to Comic Con?

I'd recommend a huge 20 volume+ action shounen/seinen, it'll make the hours of travel fly by. Maybe Berserk or ichi the killer.

I travel by train a few times of year, it's good to save huge series just for trips like that. Have fun

Hmm if you havent read these two here yet, then you really should. Berserk because its pure badass awesome, One Piece because its a long series and its really really good (too bad the only the scans for the first 2 to 3 volumes are of "good" quality and then you got to slug though low crapy quality scans till volume 18 or so).

Other then those two, you should also try reading:
Zetman
Vagabond (highly recomend it)
Planetes
NHK ni Youkoso!
Konjiki no Gash Bell
Shamo
Genshiken
Eden
D.Gray-man
Beck
Yotsuba&!
Yakitate!! Japan
Monster
Battle Royale
20th Century Boys
Akira
Flame of Recca
Hunter x Hunter
MPD Psycho
My Name is Zushio
Noritaka
Rookies

Dont get me wrong. I dont think you should read all of these well you are there. I just think that these are good series and that you will probably like. You should at lest be abile to find a few in that list there that you would like to read travel (maybe).

Thanks, I have downloaded some of those and am looking forward to reading them.

Also, what is Comic Con? If I knew more about it I might be able to work going there into my schedule.
