Damn Iga. Ok, I made it. Happy nao?

So I need a few nice manga recommendations thrown at me. I am currently reading Naoki Urazawa's Monster and thoroughly enjoying it. This is what you could say my first serious manga. I've read Love Hina and I's before, but they are not in the same league.


So, yeah. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

What kind of manga are you looking for?! I can give you a bunch of suggestions, but it depends on what you are looking for. And do not forget to check out the Monster anime!

Dark mood, serious tone, the more rooted in reality the better. I bought Blood:The Last Vampire manga and was very unimpressed by it. Meh.

Okay, Elfenlied anime was pretty dark. The manga is different, but check it out......

Elfenlied Manga

I hear good thing about Berserk

Claymore is an awesome manga, with the greatest plot twist ever

Claymore Manga

Naruto has some very dark moments too. The character in my avatar and sig is killing characters left, right and center.

Naruto manga

Never ever read or watch Bleach, seriously!

What's a Manga? Is it like the mango fruit? If so, how do you read a piece of fruit?

Monster is great, I just finished it. Issue 1 of his 20th Century Boys is now available and so far so good, so I'd suggest that.

Deathnote is brilliant.

Old Boy is great.  I'd go for that first. Tezuka's Buddha set is also good (though doesn't come close to the ones I have mentioned so far).

All of the stuff I mentioned fits this category.  Deathnote is a little lighter.  You'll love Old Boy.

Is manga classed as the written books or as anime too?
