i relate :")
too many slop out there when what i really want to read is peak ART, not meaningless entertainment. :(
10 Manga/Webtoon i can confidently recommend to anyone: https://www.mangago.me/home/mangalist/3754997/
the kind that's unforgettable. super immersive / sucks you in nonstop. either because it's SUPER FUN, or mindblowing, or it really pulls your heartstrings, or it keeps punching you in the gut, or all at once.

character-driven stories.
interesting MCs who feel real, alive, & sympathetic. we can't help but be fond of MC and root for them. well written characters & story in general.

longer list (40+ titles) i collected over 8 years for various reasons like:
successfully makes this picky reader INVESTED.
root-worthy characters. Well-written. Reasonable. Lovable. Anti-cliche.
Great character dynamics.
Enjoyable & flavorful; story that mixes genres & tropes really well.
Highly immersive stories; transport u to a different reality.
LOTS OF EMOTIONS. Possibly heart breaking (in a good way)
Good storytelling.
Great reread value.
Beautiful artworks :)

i’m sad because i can’t find peak everything i read doesn’t hit like i can read pretty good stories but they aren’t as good as it felt before ei think i’m bored or just maybe have way to high standards now but i never have life altering stories that become like gold to me i think i may have to get back into ongoing stories because i think that’s when everything is better with the suspense of every episode but i also hate not knowing so i’ve only been reading completed stories for a long time
