Aye It's mee bitches anyways I got A list That I made up of the mangas I enjoyed and would recommend to anyone who is interested.

666 Satan
My Short Review: When I first read this I was very surprised that it wasn't that famous. personally I liked this more than naruto,OP,bleach. the plot is good it has its similarities to naruto, but has some more depth to it. and the fights are very well thought out. The characters are interesting and enjoyable. After the time skip the manga feels a bit rushed and lacks the feel it gave for me pre time skip....
But if you're looking for a enjoyable,funny,entertaining naruto/dbz like manga this is the one you should go for

Akira
My Short Review: Weighing in at 6 huge volumes ranging from £23 to £25 each, Akira is likely to cause you an overdraft but really is the seminal manga no fan could possibly do without.

Beginning much the same way as the anime, it opens with Kaneda and the gang racing through Neo-Tokyo on their bikes which leads to Tetsuo nearly crashing into Takahashi and then being taking away by the military.

That is pretty much where the similarities end. Tetsuo and Kaneda hardly see each other from then on and Akira shows up far earlier and there are far more characters which feature only in the manga. Most notably Chiyoko, a butch hard-as-nails weapons expert who protects Kei for the majority of the story.

That's enough on the story as it is such a magnificent one of a kind experience that you will never find anywhere else.

Impossible to put down, Akira deals with more or less every human issue you can think of and by the time you have come to the end you will be deeply moved and your outlook will have changed immensely.

The artwork of Akira is absolutely stunning. Excellent clear detail. The angles of the characters and scenes are always superbly done. You never think 'he should have done this', you always know that it is perfect.

Without a doubt the best manga I ever read and, in my opinion, up there with Dickens and Shakespeare. One day it will hopefully receive the same respect from the world. This may be a tad too dark and convoluted for some of you. For anyone who likes a good sci-fi drama. And I mean a good one. It's not meant to be a pretty manga and I hope some of you shallow 12 yr old people ditch Air Gear or Bleach or whatever and pick this up. Oh, and anyone who likes 20th Century Boys will probably like this.

Berserk
My Short Review: This is one of the few mangas that imparts an unforgettable feeling after being plunged into its unbelievable story. The moment you seem to grasp the main-idea, the message of the manga, you are again misled by your small thoughts and come to see an even wider frame, within which this whole manga evolves with ups and downs in the extreme way. Pure violence, madness and nastiness confronts pure heart and feelings. The middle age, in which this manga has set its story, serves these factors at its best.It is amazing how god and humans faith in god are dealt with in this manga. Despite the clashing contrast of darkness and light in this manga, it is totally not the intention of it to clearly distinguish between them; it is rather merging all these together so one is confused in the end how to judge. A hint to the very human weakness. GREAT!
one could think of a lot more, because this manga intrinsically has more to offer than it has on the shell.

Blade Of The Immortal
My Short Review: If you liked samurai champloo you would probably love this. basic idea is meet Manji, freestyle rogue ronin with one badass abilty: he cannot die. Yup, chop off his arm and he'll reattach it in minutes; getting impaled in the heart hurts like crazy but doesn't kill him. He meets Asano Rin and decides to help her avenge her parents who were murdered by a cadre of master swordsmen. Throw in a superb artist and tada! You get Blade Of The Immortal. Very detailed artwork and there's even a nice little love story inside. My only complain is that new chapters are too slow (monthly...).

Death Note
My Short Review: Death Note is an unusual shounen manga. For one thing, it has an antagonist as the main character, and his opponent is the one who's supposed to be on the side of justice. For another, it's chock-full of philosophical questions, something that I just love. It also doesn't hurt that the plot is original and thought-provoking--what if there existed a notebook that could kill any person whose name was written? Would you write in it?--and examines it from every angle. It's got everything that a great manga series needs.

The series can be split into two parts: Volumes 1-7, when the brilliant but egosticial Light Yagami is beginning to set up his "utopia" of a crime-free world, if only he can get rid of the master detective who's on his tail, and Volumes 8-12, when Light is close to making his utopia realized...except that he now has *two* detectives to deal with. IMO, the first part is the superior one, largely because the Light/L dynamic is delicious and engaging to read, and it focuses more on the psychological "is he or is he not" thinking as the two try to out-wit the other. The second part is still very good in comparison to other manga, but pales in comparison to the first one since the new characters just aren't as interesting as L. It's also here when the plot becomes so complex and clouded that it's easy to lose your way in the super-deductions.

Nonetheless, the entire series pays off in a beautifully tense and poetic ending. The series is one that will stick with you long after you've finished it. And yes, it will make you think. You can't help but feel a twinge of sympathy for Light, even though, in one character's words, he's a "crazy mass murderer." It is *that* good.

Hellsing
My Short Review: You won't get anything else like Hirano's quirky, gothic artwork and fast-paced, gripping action scenes. The entire uniqueness and sheer dark fun of this manga was what got me hooked, but there's always something different for its fans to pick up on and enjoy. You'll grow to love the vampire Alucard; the powerful lead of the series and one demented guy to say the least - a character who's been developed to perfection (in his own right!) This is a gory, bloody rampage with a mix of humour and angst that is a must for any fan of the GothHorror genre.

Lovely Complex
My Short Review: This manga had me both laughing and bursting out in tears. It's not your regular plot with "perfect" cookie-cutter characters with pristine beauty. The girl is a is extremely tall while the guy is quite short. And they're both not popular with the opposite sex either - hence the "complex" in the title (from inferiority complex I believe). It's hilarious light-hearted manga with a lot of twists and turns. Highly recommended! This one is on the light side compared with my other recommendation cause it's very entertaining for a light manga.

Double Recommendations
________________________
Naruto
My Short Review: Man Naruto Manga and Anime is a hot topic for a reason heres what you should praise the manga for
-->very excellent artwork, one of the best ever
-->deep and intruging story line, many mysteries to be solved
-->No padding :)
-->In depth characters, people with personality that shows!
-->Inspirational spirits
Need I say more? This is recommended for all anime readers young and old newbies and Vets

Bleach
My Short Review: I may be considered strange for the upcoming statement. In my opinion, but I consider the manga for Bleach way cooler than the anime. I've been constantly blown away by Tite Kubo's drawings, his story lines and the characters. I think this has to be one of the coolest and most stylish mangas out there right now. Please do not look at the anime to justify bleach read the manga to fully enjoy it. The manga is more balanced trust me.

One Piece
My Short Review: This is another one you should take a look at the manga first then see the anime or you would probably do better without ever watching the anime and just reading the mangas. One Piece, its a total different manga compared to Naruto and Bleach, not only its filled with action-packed, theres allot of hilarious comedy which really makes the reader laugh a lot. One Piece travels from one island to another island. The islands is unique, providing with different environment, creatures and many more. Its really exciting just by reading it. The storyline is good, therefore, I recommend to read this manga^^ Thumbs Up!

Descriptions Of Must See Anime's

Ah! My Goddess

Keiichi Morisato is looking forward to university life. But in reality, he has no luck in anything, and he has trouble with clubs, love, etc. The truth is that he has an unlucky star above his head. One day, Keiichi is stuck watching the dorm while his sempai are away, and has a mountain of chores to do to boot. But Keiichi is a good-natured person, and is set about doing his duties. As he is about to finish his final chore, he makes a phone call to his sempai. But the words that came through the receiver are, 'Goddess Help Line.' Shortly afterwards, a beautiful goddess named Belldandy appears in front of him from the mirror of his room.

Bleach

Kurosaki Ichigo is a 15 year old boy that has an ability to see ghosts/spirits. Because of his ability, he is able to meet a female death god (a.k.a Shinigami) named Kuchiki Rukia. To save his family and friends from unwanted soul-eating spirits (Hollows), Rukia transfers her Shinigami powers to Ichigo. As Rukia takes on a human shell, together they solve mysteries involving spirits and hollows until from the spirit world comes 2 other shinigamis explaining that it is illegal to transfer Shinigami powers to humans and Rukia exceeded the time limit to stay in the human world. After they sentence her death for breaking the laws, Ichigo snaps and swears to everyone he will retrieve Rukia by breaking into the spirit world.

Detective Conan

Detective Conan is about an elementary school boy named Conan Edogawa. He solves mysteries and crimes through reasoning and logic and with the help of friends and nifty gadgets. Conan is really a 17-year-old famous high school detective, Shinichi Kudo. While investigating some suspicious activity, Shinichi was knocked over the head by a man dressed in black. During his semi-conscious state, an experimental drug was forced down his throat that was meant to kill him. Instead, Shinichi was shrunk into a little kid. In order to prevent the men who did this to him from hurting his friends and family, Shinichi changed his name to Conan Edogawa and now lives with his girlfriend, Ran and her dad.

Fullmetal Alchemist

After losing their mother, Alphonse and Edward Elric attempt to bring her back using the forbidden science of human alchemy. However, alchemy operates on the theory of equivalent trade, and breaking the human alchemy taboo carries a heavy price. Ed loses his leg, and Al loses his body. Ed is able to seal Al?s soul inside of a huge suit of armor, at the cost of his arm. Years later, Ed (now with two mechanical limbs) and Al (still trapped in the armor) leave their childhood home, each brother concerned with the other?s happiness. Ed, who has a natural talent and skill for alchemy, becomes nationally certified and is soon known everywhere as the "Fullmetal Alchemist." Their true objective is to search for any information on the fabled Philosopher?s Stone, hoping it will allow them to regain their old bodies. All of their hopes rest with this mythical stone, which may not even exist at all. However, the brothers soon learn that they are not the only ones after the powerful stone.

Naruto

Naruto closely follows the life of a boy who is feared and detested by the villagers of the hidden leaf village of Konoha. The distrust of the boy has little to do with the boy himself, but it?s what?s inside him that causes anxiety. Long before Naruto came to be, a Kyuubi (demon fox) with great fury and power waged war taking many lives. The battle ensued for a long time until a man known as the Fourth Hokage, Yondaime, the strongest ninja in Konoha, fiercely fought the Kyuubi. The fight was soon won by Yondaime as he sealed the evil demon in a human body. Thus the boy, Naruto, was born. As Naruto grows he decides to become the strongest ninja in Konoha in an effort to show everyone that he is not as they perceive him to be, but is a human being worthy of love and admiration. But the road to becoming Hokage, the title for the strongest ninja in Konoha, is a long and arduous one. It is a path filled with betrayal, pain, and loss; but with hard work, Naruto may achieve Hokage.

Naruto Shippuuden

The second incarnation of the very popular NARUTO anime. This anime will feature Part II of the manga storyline which takes place two years after the events at the end of the Sasuke Retrieval arc (Episodes 107–135).

The story revolves mainly around Naruto Uzumaki`s and Sakura Haruno`s new adventures and their search for Sasuke Uchiha after he left Konoha-gakure (Leaf Village) to gain Orochimaru`s power. The plot also shows a more active Akatsuki in their quest for obtaining all the tailed beasts.

After his failed attempt to retrieve Sasuke, Naruto learns that circumstances have granted him slightly less than three years to prepare for a confrontation with Orochimaru, who has to wait that much time before he can transfer into Sasuke`s body. Naruto also must prepare for his eventual confrontation with Akatsuki, who are after the demon sealed within him. To prepare, Naruto leaves the village and undergoes intensive training under Jiraiya. At the same time, Sakura becomes Tsunade`s apprentice, and Sasuke trains under Orochimaru. Thus, all three members of the original Team 7 are now training under one of the Legendary Sannin.

One Piece

It was a time when pirates ruled the seas. Several bands of pirates were battling over the great hidden treasure, One Piece, which was left by the now legendary pirate captain, G. Roger. Luffy is a young boy who mistakenly eats a devil fruit which imparts elasticity to his body. Ten years since that incident, with his new found ability, he sets off on his dream to be the best pirate in the world and find the legendary one piece.

Samurai Champloo

Mugen is a fierce animal-like warrior with a unique Bboying (break-dance) inspired fighting style. Jin has a more traditional style but don?t think of this as a weakness because his skills are amazing. The two contrasting samurai warriors are far from friends, yet their separate paths seem to cross anyways. Mugen is wandering aimlessly through the city when he stumbles upon a teahouse where he meets Jin and Fuu (A ditzy waitress, but don?t think she doesn?t have anything hidden up her sleeves). Fuu convinces them both to come with her in search of a mysterious samurai that smells like sunflowers and their journey begins. This modernized hip-hop tale breaks the barriers of the common, historical, samurai anime.

Tenchi Muyo

Although this TV series was released after the Tenchi Muyo OAVs, everything is different. Tenchi Universe is like an alternative version of the whole Tenchi saga. Several girls coming from different parts of the galaxy somehow manage to squeeze themselves into Tenchi`s once ordinary life. There`s Ryoko, the notorious space pirate; Aeka, the first princess of the planet Jurai; Mihoshi and Kiyone, a pair of bumbling space detectives... add a crazy scientist, another alien princess, some menacing enemies and you`ve got a madcap and adventure-filled series that is Tenchi Universe. But what`s this? It looks like Tenchi himself is decended from alien royalty too!

Yu Yu Hakusho

Yusuke is a 14-year old punk-ass kid with a bad attitude. One day, he surprises everyone (including fate) by dying an untimely death whilst actually doing something saintly. However, because of this, he was given a second shot at life, but has to earn his way back into the world of the living. When that's over and done with, Koenma (Prince of the Underworld, and temporarily in charge while King Enma is away) wants Yusuke to become a Spirit Realm Detective. The job is to hunt down the bad guys of the Demon Realm (Makai) and ship 'em off to the Spiritual World (Reikai). Yusuke is soon joined by local bully and cat-lover, Kuwabara Kazuma (who is developing extremely sharp spiritual senses), Kurama (who is actually the notorious fox demon known as Youko Kurama reincarnated in human form), and Hiei (a short, cute, pissy fire demon).

Anime You Should Check Out

Man There are so many Eligable Series Out there I'll try an narrow the list down to Ten of the most entertaing here we go



First is Ah! My Goddess is a Classic
My Short Review: It is an interesting anime, it has its funny moments, and a few...rare serious ones. The whole anime is light (funny). The general storyline has much appeal to it. Even if your not religious in any means, as in, you don't believe in God and angels and all, you will still find this show really great! Beautifully done, lovely characters(esp. Belldandy), and great music. Overall one of the BEST animes I have watched!!

Second is Bleach
My Short Review: I can't say anything about Bleach that's not already been said. But I'll say why I like it so much. First of all, it has great art, music & storyline, that's undeniable. But the reason I'll watch it over, say ...Ghost in the Shell (Which is also GREAT anime and my favorite btw) is that it's so relaxed. What I mean is that the story progress is light, pure fun. I watch it mainly at night when I want to relax after work and before going to sleep so I need something fun yet relaxing. Don't want to exert myself some more, so that's where Bleach kicks in. GREAT therapy I tell'ya!!!

Third Is Detective Conan
My Short Review: I think that Detective Conan is a very good anime even if you take in account that it is quite old (it started back in the 90's), and long. The mysteries are usually well thought out and they are simple enough that you can follow along and probrably solve the case right before "Conan" (Shinichi) explains it all out. Compared to a similar anime like DAQ, It is allot more simple and straight foreward (you cant figure out much in DAQ till they actually explain it). Even though probrably 95% of all the episodes are fillers, they keep you entertained to no end. A WORD OF WARNING, DO NOT WATCH THE ENGLISH VERSION ("Case Closed")!!! THEIR TRANSLATIONS ARE HORRIBLE! I think that Detective Conan has the right combination of mystery, and suspence, to keep going for a LONG time.

Fourth Is Full Metal Alchemist
My Short Review: When it comes to self-sacrifice this anime beats them all. An incredible story of the bond between two brothers who become the youngest alchemists anyone had ever seen before. However their amazing talents in this field of magic resulted in their desperate attempt to break the strictest law of Alchemy. They tried to bring their mother back to life. This failed attempt came with a terrible and tragic price. One that deformed and nearly killed them. The devotion of these two brothers to one another is what makes this story so powerful. What's more, this series touches upon some very realistic and difficult matters pertaining to life, death, and how much one is willing to sacrifice for those he/she loves.

Fifth Is Naruto
My Short Review: Despite Naruto being filler crazy, I have to agree on this one being one the few anime that give action and comedy where its needed most. Thats probably why it has lasted for as long as it has. While most people don't like an overlong filler crazy anime, i think with the fillers in this one you get to know the characters more personally than you would in other anime. Since i've watched all 216 episdes so far, i think that the fillers prepare each character for whats coming in the main storyline. Its opened up new ideas and a few new characters along the way, so that when the main story rolls around, you'll definitely be on the edge of your seat.

Sixth Is Naruto Shippuuden
My Short Review: 1.really good animation: The design in shippuuden makes the 1st Naruto series look like a piece of garbage in comparison.

2.Excellent voice acting and high quality music: Again the voice actors do an excellent job on their characters Sasuke sounds more mature and dark like he should be and Naruto still sounds Like naruto believe it or not no matter how much he matured. Over all the music is simply great and to me is some what better then even the 1st series music.

3.Jumping into the series too fast: There Is one scene which I wont mention that is used as the prologue which is actually a manga chapter thats supposed to happen latter on in the series to me this is as a huge
spoiler which could have been shown later. It's not really a spoiler but why show it
, it was pretty cool though.

4.Over all: Shippuuden has allot potential later on in the near future with a darker story and new characters thats sure to please any naruto fan who went through that years worth of fillers with this anime now up In Japan naruto is sure to once again be known as a top anime as It once was.

Seventh Is One Piece
My Short Review: One Piece. A shonen anime that deserves a place up there with the best animes of all time.

The series is a mix of action, comedy, and even tragedy in some cases. You may end up watching all of it just for the plot alone. You have practically no idea what will happen next, and you will always be anxious to know what the next twist is, what happens after it, and why it happened.

The entire One Piece world is a marvel. The characters all have some sort of special quality to them, which will bring you to love them or hate them. Even down to the laughs they have, it brings the entire world alive.

The world itself is detailed, the countries, the islands, the different pirates and groups, the cities. Everything is unique, and the things that you don't know, are a mystery that you cannot wait to find out.

One Piece excels at creativity alone - Oda, the creator, has an endles amount of creativity, be it the skills of Devil Fruits, the bizzarre animals, or just the characters themselves.

Whoever you are, you will find something in this legendary anime that appeals to you, if you haven't already been captured by the lovable characters.
You MUST watch One Piece.

and since the story has a long way before ending, it can only get better and better... Let me tell you the manga for this anime is so long I had to take a break from reading it, and catch up on my other mangas. I think I stopped at 400

Eight Is Samurai Champloo
My Short Review: One of my favorite anime.

Story: The episodes are very diverse and not formulaic at all.
Art: Some of the best artwork I've seen in anime.
Animation: The direction the scenes and especially the fight scene are unbelievably good.
Music: Soo great, I'm a huge Underground/Alt Hiphop head and listen to the soundtrack all the time. If you're into Hiphop at all you'll appreciate this series.

The middle did get a lil wordy but the series finished great.

Ninth Is Tenchi All Of Them
My Short Review: I watched when it aired on TV. I was hooked on this series as soon as Ryouko first made her appearance. It's just sad that the creators butchered her as time passed. But she still remains as one of the best anime characters in existence. Without Ryouko, Tenchi Muyo would have been a failure. This is what any anime fan should see and not miss, Tenchi Muyo is what makes every normal persons normal life in to an animefanmaniac life.

oh and there is a rumor new Tenchi Muyo will come in the future which is fantastic.

Going by the order of the individual stories, it's actually:

Original series: Ryo-ohki OAV 1, Night Before The Carnival, OAV 2, OAV 3, GXP

Mihoshi's GP Adventure is related to the OAV series, but not actually canon and doesn't have a specific time frame.

TV series 1: Universe, In Love, Forever/In Love 2

TV series 2: Tenchi in Tokyo

Manatsu No Eve/Daughter Of Darkness is a standalone movie, which is based off the Hasegawa novels. It has elements of both the Ryo-ohki OAV and Universe series but has no direct relation to either.

Tenth Yu Yu Hakusho
My Shor Review: I've watched anime almost all my life which is a very long time (believe me!!!). This one is my absolute No 1 favorite, no question about it. I know its old (I watched it first in 1990) but its still awesome up till now. Its a real classic, a must see for any anime otaku or for those who just discovered anime. I have converted many people to anime using this as a must watch. Plus Kurama's record of getting voted Japan's No. 1 Anime bishounen for five consecutive years still stands and is waiting to be broken.

If you didn't notice I put them in alphabetical order a description of each anime will be given next post.

Welcome

This is my anime and manga blog where. I will bless you with my anime and manga knowledge lol. Alright lets get to It. We will start with the basics what is anime, and what is manga people tend to get them confused. Below are two technical definitions on the two just so you know exactly what they are.

Anime
-----------
The Japanese contraction and pronunciation of the English word animation. Anime refers to traditional hand painted cel animation, but also applies to animation created in part or in whole by Computers.

Manga
-----------
Sometimes confused with anime, manga is the Japanese word for comic book (or Graphic Novel, if you prefer) and is used in English to mean Japanese comic books. Manga and anime are very closely related, as artists frequently crossover, as do the characters they create. Usually the manga is created first, and if it becomes really popular then the market it deemed capable of supporting a much more costly animation based on it.

Now that you know what they are you can begin spotting the differences of the two. I have provided an example below, umm Naruto is an anime you may have heard of. You may not know that It has a manga as well. Whether or not you chose to look into the fact is based upon whether you like reading the manga or, watching them materialize on the series. Me personally I like reading the manga and watching the shows so "to each his own".

Manga
You will wanna got to Naruto Chaos to get mangas 226,227,228,229 and they always have the latest manga's.
-------------------
Anime
-------------------

You will wanna go to Veoh they have alot of anime episodes, and they have the rest of the sauske vs naruto fight.

Just look at this post as an intro to anime and manga this is for beginners. Those who don't know about anime or manga and are interested. For those new to anime and manga, because not everyone in the world knows this stuff and I'm here to share.


Heres A Thought: For manga's check your local library. I know some of you are like library wtf is that but they may have some manga's that interest you. Then you may want to find out if it has an anime series.
