Quote from Pervserk

Lol, nobody mentioned Vinland Saga Chunchu Island Shamo Ubel Blatt and Abara? All of those are pure goodness and recommended for everyone who reads this topic 😛

well. since none of those, except island, are completed, its hard to judge them. don't you think? especially long series can change a lot as they go on.

True, but half of them are over 15 volumes or complete though. And the ones I listed are simply good, worth mentioning. No matter how long they are I'd still rate them as top quality 😛

1)Homunculus
2)Yotsubato!
3)Monster
4)Azumanga Daioh
5)Koroshiya Ichi

Those are the only five I care to list at the moment. Yotsubato! and Azumanga Daioh don't really give off a seinen feel(I agree with whoever said 'gritty plot'), but I suppose seinen has a wider definition than most people care to think...because they're very clearly classified as seinen in every single database I've seen them listed in. :\

And yeah, they're all fairly popular/well-known, but hey, screw you.

Oh, yeah, Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou is also really good. Bumps down Azumanga and Ichi for 4th place.

BTW did someone say hellsing is seinen? Hellsing is as childish as it can get, it has some nudity and gore, though not enough for me to consider it seinen .

Hellsing runs in a Seinen manga, so yeah, it's as Seinen as you can get.

Island, Priest, Tokko, Tokyo Akazukin, Zombie Hunter, and Guyver!
Can't believe no one mentioned Priest and Guyver!

Edit: Just remembered G Senjou Heaven's Door. Very good manga not well known though, I think.
