Titles related to the theme of food that doesn't fit into other stacks: ramen, sushi, drinking, diet, cooks/chefs, food-related titles in fantasy settings, and eating/food consumption titles.

From Renaissance artists and lovers to Italian restaurants and modern Italian slice of life to ancient Rome - these manga are all set in Italy!

Please let me know if I have missed any hidden gems.

Works based on Shakespeare's Italian set plays are in a different list.

With gratitude for contributions from kihel.

age gap where both characters are adults. High schoolers are so passé it's all about old farts now <3
My criteria for this list
-my general age gap is at least 10 years, but I have made exceptions for series I like
-the older character needs to look older, I don’t just want 2 identical looking bishies
-the exception to this is non-human or reincarnated beings if I like it enough
-the age gap couple needs to be the main couple in the story
-The younger character needs to be at least college aged, or older. I don’t want HS characters even if they are of age

The list is quite rare to find nowadays and hence I decided to create a stack since its really good. If you find it helpful, restack for better reach. Thank you!

The list had 10 Categories with 5 manga in each. I will create the stack in the original sequence :

1. Horror
2. Scenery Po*n
3. Minimalism
4. Realistic Characters
5. Western Influences
6. Costume Design
7. Monster Design
8. Feminine
9. Manly
10. Stylistic Action

[Note : In case a manga contains sequels, only the first one will be included in the list. However the recommendation encompasses the entire sequence of that manga including its sequels.]

An interest stack featuring the top 20 winners of the Kono Manga ga Sugoi!" (This Manga is Amazing! aka このマンガがすごい) annual magazine for 2007 (the year this ranking started!), with female and male winners included. It's a great way to find new and interesting manga to read, and serves as a time capsule for the popular manga of each year.

(There are usually 40 total winners, but I can't track down any site listing all of them from 2007 :( )

This stack will feature both male and female category winners, alternating between the female and male winners (with the exception of first place, since Honey and Clover was the cover for the 2006 stack), from first place to twentieth place.

Note that there can be ties here (usually two-way), and if a category is missing some place (for example, missing 14th place in the male's category), it usually indicates that either its title was not revealed as per the author's request, or there was a tie.

Please feel free to comment/DM if any information is off/missing.

This is a list of the Shojo and Josei manga licenses held by Viz that are not under the Shojo Beat or older Viz Shojo labels. These include some digital-only Viz Select licenses they got after TokyoPop went under as well as ones published under the plain Viz or Viz Signature labels. Otherwise, these titles are under either Viz Signature or Viz Media imprints.

*X by CLAMP has been published under both the Viz Shojo imprint (singles) and the Viz media imprint (omnibi)

*Many of Junji Ito's short stories were published in the shojo magazines Nemuki and Halloween, and have been mixed into his seinen horror in the Viz hardcover releases for his works. So those are shojo that have not been released under Viz Shojo or Shojo Beat.
