The list of manga that are considered the most recognizable in Shonen genre, including the Big 3 of Shonen Jump. Can be used as a reference sheet for newcomers to the manga industry.

manga titles that are (or at some point were) set in elite/boarding schools

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.

Noteworthy shounen that released during the Era of the "Big 3"

Shounen manga are known to fall back on a handful of "traditional" shounen sub-categories: battles (whether they are historical, fantastical, gang fights, military, space wars, or collectible monsters who fight in the protagonist's stead), school comedies, male-centered (or pandering) fantasy adventures with either a powerful male protagonist or an eye-candy female protagonist, and of course the usual harems, yuri, and fanservice. (Can't forget the waifus!) But some series don't follow a standard shounen formula, to the point of feeling like it belongs to another genre entirely.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 98 is Gaki Deka, but I couldn't find it. It has sold 30 million (November 16th, 2017), and was made by Tatsuhiko Yamagami and the publisher is Akita Shoten.

No. 99 says Jingi, but it seems to be Tachihara Ayumi's other work Maji! due to the dates and amount of volumes.

aka "don't let your kid read this alone" manga, or "why the F is this Shounen?" manga.
If you can't stand gore or dangerous/extreme mental body of thought, don't try these.

I have a stack with the opposite: Seinen with little gore:

(Also thanks to ryzxgum)

Most of them are horror, but there are some exceptions, so I had to put the word in brackets.

Non-horror manga on the list:
- Death Note
- Kuroshitsuji
- Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro

Sequels are not included.

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.

Doesn't include manga with settings older than the 10th century. So no Ancient Greece or Roman Empire, for example.

In the world of the anime and manga industry, it is rarely seen that a female manga artist comes at the top of the chain. Most of the popular anime series are written by male authors. One Piece, Naruto, AOT, Jujutsu Kaisen, all these notable manga’s are from male artists. And, there is no end to this list. But, what about anime by female manga artists?

Well, women are mostly don’t get the credit that they deserve to be and the same goes for the female mangaka. Their work always gets suppressed amid some big names and don’t get that much exposure as they should have.

So, considering this fact, in this article we have come up with a list of some notable anime by female manga writers that established their name in the best manga works of all time.

Let’s get started then.

Approximately..

just trust me bro

[not including but relevant: tsubasa reservoir chronicle and xxxholic rei aka sister series and sequel respectively]

A collection of manga with a dark/eerie theme

Manga adaptations of classical works as well as stories about people in higher education with a DA aesthethic or people appreciating the arts with an old aesthethic. So I won't include something such as Blue Period because the aestehthic doesn't fit but it does thematically. But this is an aesthethic, and since it's Eurocentric I have to be a bit liberal with my definition.

This list is derived from The Anime Man's "The OFFICIAL Top 100 Manga Of All Time (According To The Internet) Is Actually Surprising..." video. The video goes over the results of an online poll that he created in which people could vote for their favorite manga series.

The poll, taken in 2018, garnered over 160,000 votes from the international anime community. This is a complete list of the results along with the total vote count for each series. The list is in descending order, meaning the manga with the most votes come first.

Some entries are omitted because they don't have a MAL page. This is usually because they're web comics or made outside of Japan. Those omitted entries are listed here:
#22: I Love Yoo (1,338 Votes)
#46: unOrdinary (717 Votes)

Note: In the video, Joey accidentally counts all votes for Seven Deadly Sins and THE Seven Deadly Sins separately, meaning that there are technically 99 manga in this list. In the true list, Seven Deadly Sins would've been #13 with 1,795 votes. However, I've kept it in it's original position for the sake of being consistent with the video. THE Seven Deadly Sins garnered 271 votes, tying it with #89 (Aku no Hana), hence why there is no #90 on this list.
