Anybody like manga ?

Marcd94

Not that long ago, I decided to get into manga. I read it on my Kindle. I tried One Piece, and while I did thoroughly enjoy it, it’s a bit of a dedication as there are a lot of volumes, so I’ve put it down for a bit and started Death Note. I’m really enjoying it, tbh. Does anybody else enjoy manga ? If so, does anyone have any recommendations? I kind of want to try a slice-of-life manga or maybe something strange like a denpa manga. I’m also open to fighting stuff, but I’m quite new to manga and I think something with 100+ volumes is too much for me right now.

  • I've read a lot of Dragon Ball, I've got almost every volume. There's 42 volumes in total. Fair warning, though, the early volumes tend to have a lot of sexual content. It gets toned down a lot around Volume 17 (AKA the part of the story where Dragon Ball Z begins in the anime). Anyway, it's both available in black and white AND full colour, albeit for some reason only Volume 17 upwards were redone in full colour, probably because the previous volumes were filled with so much inappropriate content by today's standards and the fact that it may have coincided with Dragon Ball Z Kai reruns on network TV.

    That being said, I still haven't read the Dragon Ball Super manga, and that's mostly because the anime and the manga don't seem to have a consistent canon between them, so I figured it wasn't worth it.

    Anyway, one of the easiest way to collect Dragon Ball is through the 3-in-1 editions or the ViZ Big editions. However, with Volumes 1-3 in the 3-in-1 editions, there's some censorship that the publisher (ViZ) kind of lie about because it says "uncut and uncensored" on the cover. If you want the actual uncensored versions of Volumes 1-3, you'll have to get them in the original editions or ViZ Big editions.

    One Punch Man is also an amazing series, some of the most mindblowing artwork I've seen in manga. It's currently still ongoing.

    Yeah, Dragon Ball sounds great to be honest, but I think it might be too long for me.

    The 3 in 1 editions make it easier to keep up with. Since they're 3 volumes in 1, you only need 14 volumes of the 3-in-1 edition
