A manga that makes you want to travel when you read it.

A manga that somehow makes you want to travel and feel like traveling when you read it. Manga based on light novels are included in the manga version.

There are some BL works mixed in, so be careful if you don't like them.

To have an easier view on the manga relations of the club, here's the second stack of ~40 manga, from F to Ko.

The four other stacks are:
1-E: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/344
Ku-N: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/357
O-S: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/11584
T-Z: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/22247

New first manhwa: Flawed Almighty

Seinen manga that can be enjoyed by underage (-18) readers.
Most of them are Comedy/Sports/SOL based.

I have a stack with the opposite: Shounen with lots of gore:

-------------------------------------------------------------
!!! Waga Na wa Umishi Chapter 131 contains some uncensored nudity (I was totally caught off-guard) so you can read up to 130 without any problem, or skip 131 and go straight to 132 because you won't miss out on anything important.
Also, Hokuhokusei ni Kumo to Ike shows some of those scenes (Ch 8 + cover of Ch 10).
Dr. Kumahige has an unnecessary boob exposed moment in Ch 18.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Same Girl and Dounyatsu are Seinen manga that look very "Shounen"-ish.

No magic, no impossible feats, no fantasy or isekai, only gritty or light-hearted realism.
There might be a little bit of plot armor but nothing that is drastically outside the boundaries from what normally happens in life.

If they've got a setting in the past, reality will obviously differ from nowadays', often in the sense of lack of order, violence and/or other moral standards.

The two most frequent subgroups here are:
1) People performing their jobs or passions, be it as doctor, firefighter, someone of the rescue force, a musician, sports player or something else.
2) People who suffer under violence and unlucky circumstances, trying to hold on to life when it tries so hard to tear them down.

(I'm not that far into BG and BP yet so if those change later on, I'd remove them)


!! About 4-punkan no Marigold: This manga has a MC that can see the last moments of a person's life. He cannot change anything about it though, no matter how much he tries. This means it is as if everything goes on normally with the exception that the MC knows what will happen. Added this because the story feels tangibly real, with lots of sorrow, powerlessness and loss.
So yes strictly it shouldn't be in here but this is an exception that is justifiable imo.

While it might look like you don't really need to know all of this, you never know when it will be useful: for instance with quizzes, random questions that you wouldn't know the answer to otherwise, fun facts to tell someone else, or if there's trouble or necessity of intervention in your vicinity.

When this stack gets full, I'll make #2 with the links in both descriptions, no manga in here will be swapped out (or in).

(Also thanks to stelllan, need to add Baki and Akagi later)

Manga included are set in real historical settings & does not include those set in a made up world but may include fictional things in the setting.

Manga set in Hokkaido, in which the setting plays a big part.

The overflow stack for the Meiji Era.

Stories where a significant part of the plot (and/or humor) revolve around cultural differences. This clash can be between subcultures, real-world or fantasy nationalities, lifestyles, time periods, etc.

Here are some seinen manga recommendations with good stories that are a gem!

they may be adventurous in the same world (post apocalyptic) or in others, they may be alone or accompanied, but they are always discovering new things.

Only include those that are still ongoing

Stories that take place in historical settings, in historical order.

manga with narratives based on real historical events for those who need to study history

classes

(I will not include historical works with fantasy elements)

series that focus on women in a positive context! ig you could say feminist. Definitely normal about women, no weird sexualization/male gaze, have different types of women, are sympathetic to them, might be autobiographical w a female author, etc., . If I had a daughter, i'd encourage them to read it, yadda yadda.

Maybes: Apothecary diaries, princess jellyfish, How Do We Relationship?, Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon, Yume no Hashibashi, Ohana Holoholo, My Broken Mariko, Goodbye, My Rose Garden, In This Corner of the World, Paradise Kiss

[IN PROGRESS] 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.
