hello!! could you recommend some mangas that you think a person shoulf read at least once in their lifetime? i'm currently up-to-date with the tokyo revengers and monster no.8, but i'd like to try out different genres too :))

oh gosh, I've recently gotten myself into reading manga more this past year, so I'm no connoisseur, but I will definitely recommend some series (both finished and on-going) that I have found myself truly enjoying! here's a list:

d.gray-man by katsura hoshino

okay, so I finished reading this series recently on a recommendation (tysm maddy) and I am... I am completely enamored by it. from the art style to the storyline to the WONDERFUL cast of characters... it's just an all around magnificent story that, in my opinion, is so much better than any other shonen that I have read! there's so much to say about it, but I will be brief and say that this is definitely a must read!

orange by ichigo takano

this is a pretty beloved series... and for good reason. this shoujo seriously pulled at my heartstrings when I read it as it had a high focus on friendship and other difficult issues. there are some conflicting reviews with regards to the internal dialogue within the mc and the love interest, but like... I think it highlights how high schoolers act pretty well Lmfao

blue period by tsubasa yamaguchi

boy finds passion in art and chases after said passion through hard work! there are lots of introspective moments in this that'll hit you all at once because it's so relatable, especially when you think about your own passions and the hard work and dedication you put towards them.

look back by tatsuki fujimoto

this is actually a one shot written by the same person who made chainsaw man! gosh, I remember reading this... and then rereading it a couple more times when it first came out. incredibly heartfelt and reflective, a story that I think everyone should read as it's a masterpiece!
