It makes no sense. No. It's impossible. There must be some bias or mechanism. My gender would never pick those stupid titles. No.

No I refuse to believe this is unbiased. Surely.

Dec 27, 2017 12:47 AM by MayCastle

As usual I have a masculine taste it seems.

Dec 27, 2017 12:45 AM by MayCastle

lol Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru did something new got released?
^edit: nvm I read it it was great
Also Tomomi Abe got a 4th placer, I'm very interested on that mangaka but ain't a moonspeaker and there's so little of her translated

Real talk, most of that male top 20 looks amazing to me, but I guess that's only natural considering the contest ayoop

The gender divide is confusing :D I´m more a man than a woman according to this list. I reeally enjoyed some of the first list, don´t know most of the second one.

Agree about Promised Neverland!
7 Seeds was good too (to be fair to both lists :p)

Just started Tongari Boushi no Atelier and love it. The main is a girl so I bet they considered genre (seinen, shounen; shoujo, josei) when making the lists.

most of the titles are new and unkown to me but The Promised Neverland deserve to be No.1 <333 It's a great manga and I'm enjoying it a lot

Yes, same. It took me by surprise

Ramkec said:

Most of them are new publishing stuff, that barely catches the eye of translators, so that's why they're unknown to us outside Japan readers.

Anyways glad Oshimi's Chi no Wadachi made it, should have been higher on the list tho, especially with male's readers but w/e.

I've searched them and I saw their different covers and titles, I actually stumbled a lot to Tthem, I just don't read them since I tend to procrastinate, though it's still remarkable that a lot of them are quality manga.

Beastars is an underrated manga on MAL. Glad to see it ranked that high on the list.

Dec 9, 2017 4:17 AM by Stark700

Male clearly have the superior taste in manga.

Dec 9, 2017 2:55 AM by barthos

Hagio's manga looks and sounds good. But how did this even land on the second place among currently published titles voted by current (young ) readers?

Dec 8, 2017 11:02 PM by Rei_III

Hesitant to try these because they're on going but stellar picks from what I do know.

Neverland anime when

Depends on the studio but that is a good question. When indeed.

Glad to see 7 seeds is still going strong. I rarely cry but I did tear up while reading 7 seeds.

Dec 8, 2017 8:18 PM by Himawari9

Why are some titles written in italic?

Dec 8, 2017 5:07 PM by ColdBlackTeaFan

Neverland, Kimetsu no Yaiba, and Dr.Stone! Definitely some interesting and enjoyable jump titles. Also Fumetsu ofc is on the list. Still need to read Golden Kamuy after the x times I've seen it in some sort if top lists. Had read one chapter but forgot about it...

As for the female side, nothing I know of except Cardcaptor.

Dec 8, 2017 5:01 PM by tingy

Non-translated manga that I really like are Getsuyoubi no Tomodachi and Utakata Dialog, so I'm happy for them.

Dec 8, 2017 3:38 PM by koto

I haven't read any of the manga in the top 20 lol

CONGRATULATIONS! all of them is great on it's own... too bad maou no hisho translation look like stuck as well... kinda wondering why maou-jou de oyasumi not in here where maou no hisho is here...

kimetsu no yaiba adaptation maybe anounced in next jump fest, or soon enough... sold really good...

Not really surprised with Neverland being high on the list, considering the popularity raising up for the series.

Dec 8, 2017 2:18 PM by removed-user

Neverland and Beastars are amazing, you should try them out. Fumetsu no Anata e is also a promising new manga.

Golden Kamuy, Made in Abyss, Dr. Stone, Kimetsu no Yaiba are also all great manga for all kinds of different reasons, give em a try.

Tongari Boushi no Atelier and Kuutei Dragons are things I wanna read. The winner for the female category looks cool, but no translations.
