For the otaku interested in manga with stories happening in the times of the Romans (10) and Greek (7), and Gauls (1).

(Also thanks to tzippurah)

Series with a prison setting/theme, either institutional jails or informal, DIY prisons.

thanks to tzippurah and alpacaqn for suggestions

Includes manga with creatures from legends (e.g. youkai), or stories that rely heavily on myths/mythical themes for the plot (so no slice-of-life comedies that just happen to have inhuman characters, for example). Ghosts, zombies, werewolves, dragons, random demons etc. are omitted; there are too many manga with those, as they are far more popular than other legends. Urban horror legends aren't included either (like in Terror Night, for example).

Only a few works containing gods are included. They must meet one of the following conditions:
— feature gods originating from other cultures, not Japan's
— feature existing gods from mythology (not made up by the author).

Most of the manga on this list are episodic btw

Manga depicting the daily life/religion/historical events/just culture overall of different parts of the world.

Doesn't include Japanese culture since most of the manga have a Japanese setting anyway.

don't expect (all) of them to blow your mind, make you rethink your whole life, or anything like that; some may just make you go "oh, i haven't thought about it that way before!" it's just as simple as that.

also, not necessarily every chapter of each manga was something to meditate on. so don't expect about that either.

also!! "thought-provoking" does not necessarily equal "philosophy".

also, (ah, i'm getting tired of this word), all of those manga have under 15k members, hence why i call them "hidden gems"

To have an easier view on the manga relations of the club, here's the fourth stack of manga, from O to S.

!! Almost all of the manga in this stack were moved to the 5th stack (except Sousei no Taiga - Super Doctor K).

The four other stacks are:
1-E: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/344
F-Ko: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/349
Ku-N: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/357
T-Z: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/22247

+++
First manga in the stack has been changed to Ojisan wa Kawaii Mono ga Osuki. instead of Olimpos (Feb 18)

Manga, manhwa and manhua about gods & godesses interacting with each other or interacting with/ Living amongst other beings like humans, demons or yokai.

I plan on reading 100 manga in one month. Manga I will read are on this lists.

Mangá² podcast recommendations (#050-#099)

A variety of manga I've enjoyed and would recommend, that are each two volumes long. Give them a try!

Any manga, manwha, or manhua that primarily revolves around Greek myths, or prominently features at least one figure from Greek Mythology.

Note: I did not include any overly explicit titles, or titles I could not find much information about.

Extra Note: I didn't want to add every Saint Seya spin-off(there are a ton), so I just put the original. All of them are about Greek mythology, so just use the original as a placeholder for the entire franchise.

All manga published by polish publisher Studio JG

Studio JG, powstałe w 2006 roku, na początku swojego istnienia znane było z wydawania magazynu o mandze i anime „Otaku”. Po czasie ich działaność rozszerzyła się o polskie komiksy inspirowane stylem mangowym oraz doujinshi komedie oparte na wcześniej powstałych już tworach (np. Akatsukiss inspirowane Naruto, Dead Not inspirowane Death Note).
W 2009 postanowili wydać mangę „Hetalia”, co rozpoczęło ich drogę w zostaniu jednym z największych wydawnictw mangowych w Polsce.

Lista jest ułożona od najstarszej pozycji do najnowszej.
Part 1 obejmuje lata 2009 do 2016
Part 2 lata 2017 do 2019: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/40735
