You should also watch/read Yu Yu Hakusho if you haven't, which is complete and by the same guy who does Hunter x Hunter.

I'll check it out. I've seen it before but I've never watched it. If I recall correctly, isn't it constantly on hiatus?

Thank you for the suggestion.

It does take a lot of breaks but there's still a lot to read and the arc prior to the current arc also serves as a pretty good ending on its own (in fact, the newer anime picked that as its ending point).

Soul Eater is a good option. I'd recommend Tripeace as well, which is relatively short.

I didn't see a place to ask for recommendations so I hope it isn't rude to ask for any here. I've been out of the manga seen for the while outside of Dragon Ball super and the occasional Watamote and Jitsu Wa.

I'm in the mood for a battle manga.

If you like Dragon Ball, Bleach (up to the fight with Ulquiorria), Naruto, Boku no hero Academia, One Piece, Gintama, JoJo's Bizzare Adventure, but don't like Fairy Tale (too much fan service, too mastaburtory) or Toriko, what would be a good recommendation?

If anyone had any suggestions, that'd be a big help. I prefer the series was officially licensed so I could purchase it, but I'm cool with the alternative.

I'll second Soul Eater, though the beginning has quite a fair bit of fan service.

You might enjoy Twin Star Exorcists, it has awesome character designs and art.

Also surprised nobody has mentioned Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer (Hoshi no Samidare) yet.

I don't see One Punch Man or Mob Psycho 100 on there, so definitely check those out if you haven't.
Helck is also really good, even if it kind of gets a bit weaker later on.

There's a recommendation thread somewhere that'll probably give you some more stuff. I'd link it, but I'm on my phone right now.

I've read and enjoyed both OPM and MP100. I've also read some of Helck, but I do agree that that series is a real March series, in like a lion, out like a lamb.

I've also seen Soul Eater the anime, but never finished it or the manga. Just kind of lost my attention. Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer sounds cool, though.

The plot description for TSE isn't grabbing me, though.

I saw that back when it aired on cartoon networks. Thanks to my insomnia, I even saw the ending. Fellow 00s kids know what I mean.

Just looking at GIS, Black Clover reminds me a lot of Naruto. Don't know if good or bad.

Shut Hell sounds weird. Might pick up the first volume and see how it is.

Is Negima as pervy as I assume? I found it on comixology and it was listed as a battle manga, but I saw was made by the guy who did Love Hina, a romantic comedy that I regret liking as a child. And I also saw that there's a lot of underage characters. So, is it as terrible as I think it is? Because the preview images didn't look so bad but they probably avoided putting that stuff in the preview.

That sounds like a Superman leap to go from " helping School errand of the week" to " I am the hope of the universe, I am the answer to all who cry out in pain!" But, I guess it happens.
