The list of manga that are considered the most recognizable in Shonen genre, including the Big 3 of Shonen Jump. Can be used as a reference sheet for newcomers to the manga industry.

A list of manga with the most realistic artwork I can think of. Some titles have their own style added into the manga, this is totally fine - so cartoonish features and anatomically incorrect proportions are fine - so long as backgrounds or character art is high quality and reminiscent of realistic imagery/CGI then its eligible for this list.

For sequel series: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/2415

This is only the series with over 100 chapters, there are many more titles available with less than 100 chapters which are also great series worth reading, this is only for those who might want some longer series.

It only says website in the title, but there’s also an app, however not every series is available on the app.

No sequel series were added to the list (Tokyo ghoul, Jojo’s), because they’re in the sequel series interest stack (and there’s no room anyway).

You can read all of the series with every chapter for $2.

The only series without every chapter available for free are:
Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai (Chapters are added as the volumes are released) NOT LIKELY TO GET ANY MORE VOLUMES.

These are the series only available on the website:
Golden Kamuy
Jigokuraku (Hell’s Paradise)

There are manga that are so amazingly well done that they set the bar a tad too high for any anime adaptation. But then there are attempts to bring them to the screen that go beyond that and don't stop at failing to meet expectations: they're outright lazy, shoddy, phoned-in cash grabs that drain the source material of what made it so good to begin with.

If you seek to have a good time, you must, at all costs, read these manga as they are and avoid any adaptations like plague. Do yourself a favor.

The list includes titles that have received pointless fragmentary adaptations in form of short OVAs and the like that fail to represent the original in any meaningful form.

The list doesn't include bad adaptations of manga that isn't great enough to warrant a recommendation to begin with.

More entries will be added in the future. Existing entries are subject to revision.

See also the opposite of this list: Manga adaptations made with love and care: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/2345.

Note: One-Punch Man is a special case as it's present on both this list and the one linked above. This is because its first season is an improvement on the manga experience but the second, produced by a different team, is a horrible mess. For Berserk, the old (1997) adaptation is decent, albeit still inferior to the manga, but all the newer ones range from merely subpar to atrocious garbage.

This list constitutes my personal views and stances. If something isn't on it, it likely means I haven't read the original or am not familiar enough with its adaptation(s) to have a qualified opinion. Feel free to shoot me suggestions via DMs, but make sure you have a convincing argument if it's not something that's already on my main manga/anime list. I don't promise it'll end up here, but I will consider all suggestions.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 98 is Gaki Deka, but I couldn't find it. It has sold 30 million (November 16th, 2017), and was made by Tatsuhiko Yamagami and the publisher is Akita Shoten.

No. 99 says Jingi, but it seems to be Tachihara Ayumi's other work Maji! due to the dates and amount of volumes.

These will make you laugh super bad. 100% guarantee it.

From the Deeps of Space...

Another Lifeform has shown up? To Invade and Destroy our World? Or did they came to help us?
Are they Like us? Or do they look like something we never could've imagined?

Well you can only find it out when you read these Storys, many Genres are Covered here and you might find a new Story here.

The Masked Man is an American YouTuber who makes videos primarily about manga, but also anime, and very occasionally video games. He does in-depth analysis on the subjects he talks about. Here is his top 50 manga.

NOTE:-
"Fata Morgana no Yakata: Anata no Hitomi wo Tozasu Monogatari" is not manga, its a Visual Novel.(https://vndb.org/v12402)
Consider this list from Beserk to OPM to be the actual manga list.

Seinen manga is targeted to males, has action, philosophy, psychological elements, maybe some realistic romance.
That’s the common theme for this list. I will not include the popular shonen Naruto here, but will include Hunter x Hunter. That’s because HxH is dark and has deep philosophical themes. So that’s it!

manga that at some point i read that the art was great.

Some of the best drawings in manga. Whether it is because of the level of detail or because of its creativity and uniqueness, these manga have beautiful artwork. This list only includes one manga per artist.

Of course this is very subjective and only consists of manga I’ve read. Feel free to comment more manga on my profile for me to check out and I might include in this list!

Shonen where the story takes place in a fantasy world.

No Isekai
No High School secret life
No historical setting
No "alternative Japan"
No thousands years in the future

Interesting and notable titles from Shueisha's seinen magazine line.

Reboots and remakes, made either by the original author or by someone new, from flashy updates of webcomics to classics remade anew. Excludes manga based on a pilot one-shots and adaptations of other media (such as multiple adaptations of a novel). Vaguely sorted.

Most entries explain the circumstances or have the original in the relations, except for Yakushoku Distopiary (a webcomic remake). One Piece: Episode A and Eguchi Hisashi contain remakes. Hotel has Boichi's remake of a manhwa one-shot Hotel: Since 2079.

Must-read seinen!
