Mystery manga that contain supernatural/mythological/folklore beings. May only make mention of these things or may actually be set in a world where they're real. "Beings" includes creatures, spirits, youkai, gods e.t.c. People with supernatural powers are not included.

Only series focusing on or centred around said beings have been added. Only the first entry has been added if it's part of a series and manga only.

A grave undertaking.

Happy Halloween.

Pessimistic worldviews. For when you want to wallow in despair.

It doesn't matter if we all die.

Manga recommendations given in the Anime Collective YouTube channel, I’ll only add titles mentioned in recommendation videos and in series review videos, so I will not be counting the ones mentioned in manga hauls or edition reviews(even if the latter also reviews the story)

Link to their website https://animecollective.com/

Also includes titles where the licencing wasn't cancelled oficially but no new volume has been released in English for years despite existing in the original language, and cases when the publisher went defunct before completing the series. Novels/manhwa/manhua etc. count too.


Let me know if there is some update to any of the titles listed or if some needs to be added.

Also this is a personal call-out for Dark Horse, pick up your damn manga.

This stack will have all of the mangas mentioned in his iceberg video in order.
this stack won't contain any Sequels to the mangas.
layer 4-5 + the 5 Honourable Mentions

(Anime part of the iceberg https://myanimelist.net/stacks/37638)

Most of the manga series mentioned will be lesser known or the ones which are ignored by the masses and falls in obscurity

Manga series with covers that feature recurring design and composition elements, consistent art styles, gradual changes that show intent and overall harmony of the entire collection. I'm open to suggestions, I try not to add too many “standing character” situations, but will do so if the art is striking enough.

Some very very long running series. These Mangakas are truly amazing

*to the tune of Mr Sandman*

a collection of stories themed around postmen, letters, and packages! i recently rediscovered my love for tegamibachi and it inspired this stack, so, to qualify, the main character must be involved in some kind of delivery (as courier or receiver), postal service, or letter writing. it can be supernatural, otherworldly, or regular post; provided someone is dropping off or sending to someone's house an item in the form of a package or letter, it counts!

food delivery will not be considered, however. maybe I'll make a stack just for that sometime?
