Kingdom

It's about the unification of China, but mostly about dudes chopping peoples heads off with swords. Apart from that the story is actually pretty decent overall.

Imagine I linked a billion more panels with variations on the same thing below.

Owns owns owns.

Giant Killing

Good soccer manga. Stands out from many sports manga as it focuses a lot on the coaches, club and supporters of the team in addition to the players.

It's cool art but graphic to the point of ridiculousness sometimes.

You seen what happens at Huffman in multiple games and what the USN and OCN are like but instead of being a military engagement its like the author read about all the excesses of tribal warlords in parts of the world and threw those in there.

I never played any of the games so it was just as presented for me.

Did Shamo ever end? Chapters seemed to be released like once a year so I dropped it.

It ended in probably the worst way. Think 'worse than Gantz' ending.

Breaker New Waves is best read as a proverb on respecting your elders.

The Grand Blue guy really knows how to put together a page.

The Isaac Newton page in the last chapter was a thing of real beauty

Yeah, it was really good. Tbh i'm tempted to go post a couple pages in this thread every time a new Grand Blue chapter comes out, but that would get annoying real quick, so i desperately fight the urge

Haha I do the same

Could someone recomend me mangas/artists that are really good at conveying action sequences? I was told to start with Dragonball Z, but there are probably other (better?) examples out there.

e: couldn't find a general manga q's thread

For more realistic fighting type stuff there's:

Shamo (although it ends up getting bad about halfway through)
Teppu
All-Rounder Meguru

All of those are pretty good with action stuff. You could argue that Holyland belongs on that list but it's not everyone's favorite.

Thanks all, some good suggestions there. Someone else mentioned Gantz to me, so I'm reading that now, although the examples itt seem to be more action-y. Has a weird negative atmosphere though.

Just stop reading it as soon as you feel it gets boring or dumb. Because it doesn't get better from there. Same for Shamo. When they're good they're good, but those two mangas have about the worst endings around and some of the worst arcs stuck in here and there.

Teppu was insanely good when it was around, but had to be canned for some reason I can't remember and had a really bad and abrupt ending.

P sure it was health problems for the author

Angel Densetsu is a pretty solid all round thing that I'd recommend to most.

This is a good suggestion also, pretty standard shounen with the twist that the hero can't fight but everyone thinks he's an evil badass. It stays with the same joke throughout, but they keep telling it in new ways and the side characters are great.

Yup. I loved how what ended up being a 1 joke plot did it so loving well and most of the time out of nowhere that you kinda just laughed while admiring the way it was done. No weird fanservice poo poo, funny overall, good enough artwork, etc.
