Akira (manga)ExcellentI have the first volume in hardcover, waiting for B&N to release the second one. Shows definite promise, and has much better pacing and character depth than the movie. AMAZING art.
Aria (manga)ExcellentCriminally overlooked. Gorgeous beyond words, in both art and storytelling. I find this manga so relaxing after reading all my shonen manga...
Dr. Slump (manga)Very goodSo very clever and cute. Not recommended for those who have a strong aversion to crude humor, though...
Excel Saga (manga)Very goodFar better than the obnoxious anime. Biting satire and intelligent, dark humor.
Flame of Recca (manga)GoodA darker shonen title. First volumes suck, but gets better as it goes on. Has unusually chilling villains, and nicely illustrated battles.
Fruits Basket (manga)ExcellentAn amazing shojo title. Always gives me the warm fuzzies. :D
Hunter × Hunter (manga)Excellent
Inuyasha (manga)ExcellentMm, Rumiko Takahashi goodness.
Maison Ikkoku (manga)ExcellentI can see why this is considered the all-time best romance manga. Really funny characters, with both subtle and in-your-face personalities.
Mushishi (manga)Excellent
Naruto (manga)ExcellentAs an action-comedy title, this is about as mindless as it gets, but god, does it deliver in those categories...
One Piece (manga)Very goodRefreshingly unique, fun characters.
Phoenix (manga)Masterpiece
Ranma ½ (manga)ExcellentDid I mention that I love Rumiko Takahashi?
Rave Master (manga)GoodInteresting mix of medeival and hip-hop culture.
Rurouni Kenshin (manga)Very goodBattles are kind of exaggerated, but still lives up to the hype.
Shaman King (manga)GoodThe multicultural themes make this otherwise average shonen title stand out from the others.
Vinland Saga (manga)Very good
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (manga)Excellent
YuYu Hakusho (manga)Very goodGreat character development.
