Manga that have frogs and/or toads in them, can be real, can be items.

Many stories, many art styles, many genres and demographics.

A list made for and from a manga lover, delve into the diverse and extensive world of manga

this list is growing as my readings, patience 🕴️

These lists don't just focus on whether or not a job is good, they focus on whether a job has value and is worth reading.

so there will be some that for a general public are very rare and others that can be very bad for you but I hope you can understand the value of each one 🕴️

obviously there is a standard, the idea is not to frustrate the reader or put worthless and boring stories

Finally, these lists are just a part of the vast and wonderful world that the Manga.

Here is a list of mangas that should appeal to old farts like me, who are too old to find fun in shonen characters getting stronger, cliché fantasy or in vanilla school romance tropes.
The main drive is that the manga should have some personality, with decent and properly written characters, laid-back humor, an interesting context and / or a subtle story. Good art and page layout are also appreciated. No violence porn or excessive fan service either, I like authors to focus on something else than these simple devices, although I'm not against them at very small doses when they serve the story. The manga may have been adapted in anime or not, I only address the mangas here.
There are probably some spoilers in my comments so skip them if you're worried about that.

I remember reading a transcript of a conversation between Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hideaki Anno in which one of them said something along the lines of "the heart of manga is fetishism". I don't remember which, but the other agreed, and they were right.

I'm just a guy
