List of sleeves for "elitist". These manga have been considered as "deep" animations by various critics and analysts.

In this compilation there are manga with quite complicated stories that are not recommended for all audiences. As they are: cult manga, artistic, experimental, avant-garde, underrated, psychological, philosophical, unique or mind-blowing.

Part one: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/6924

(Copy paste from part one) Manga that're strange, confusing, ridiculous, seem surreal, are overly silly, where the abnormal is normal, are very high paced, or may simply make you go "what?". Anything ranging from gag comedy to gore, all with various levels and types of absurdity.

Maximum of one title per author (including part one).

Gintama? Ichi the Killer? Gantz? Bleach? GTO? Not today, ma'am

Mostly obscure manga that are probably worth checking out. (condensed PTR of sorts)

For the badge-based item entries in the yearly Manga Reading Challenge. As there is an entire decade's worth of MRC events with a myriad of badges provided by various talented artists, this will be a multipart stack. All series are marked with their respective first badge year.

Note: If you don't see a title from a specific badge in a given year here, it's either in a previous part or I failed to find the source for it. My apologies if it's the latter.
