Does anyone know any plot-oriented non SOL manga with an interesting cast of characters? Like it's not turbo focused on the MC, every character is interesting. TiA!
Anyone know of any good plot oriented manga with an aquatic theme? Like sea monsters, ships, or just the ocean in general.
I know a few, depending on what genres you like. Here's several completed ones I've read before:
Kaijuu no Kodomo/Children of the Sea
Genre: Seinen/mystery/supernatural
Comments: This one has a movie too. Very pretty art.
Aoi Uroko to Suna no Machi/Mermaid Scales and the Town of Sand
Genre: Josei/mystery/slice of life
Comments: This is very short (11 chapters) and has an interesting/cute art style.
School Ningyo/School Mermaid
Genre: Shonen/horror
Comments: This is kinda a cult horror manga classic with interesting visuals. It's more so a series of one shots than a proper narrative.
Crimsons: Akai Koukaishatachi/Crimsons: The Scarlet Navigators of the Ocean
Genre: Shonen/adventure/educational (kinda)/comedy
Comments: This one is pretty silly and stupid. It's an adventure story about the life of salmon.
Umi no Cradle/The Cradle of the Sea
Genre: Shonen/Historical/gender bender
Comments: This is a navel adventure story that's pretty short (23 chapters).
Suiiki/Waters
Genre: Seinen/fantasy/historical
Comments: This is more about rivers than the ocean. It's by the same author as Mushishi, so the art is stunning.
Silent Blue
Genre: Josei/mystery
Comments: More about a lake and also very short (6 chapters)
Ningyo Ouji/Mermaid Prince
Genre: Shojou/psychological
Comments: This is 3 chapters and the first story in an anthology.
Kaikisen/Return to the Sea
Genre: Seinen/mystery
Comments: You might want to find this elsewhere since not all the chapters are here. It's Satoshi Kon.
Gyo
Genre: Seinen/Horror/Psychological
Comments: Juju Ito sea horror
Aqua Knight
Genre: Seinen/action/fantasy
Comments: Not really complete (indefinite hiatus). This is Alita Battle Angle but with orcas.
Suisei no Gargantica/Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet
Genre: Shonen/mecha/action
Comments: This has an anime. It's like if they added mechas to the movie Waterworld.
I haven't read a lot of these in a very, very long time, so my memory may be a bit hazy. Hopefully something sticks out to you!

omg tysm!! The beginning is exactly what I was picturing when I asked for sea monsters, looks really neat.
Anyone got any good non isekai fantasies? Romance is fine as long as its not the central plot point. Thank you in advance!
Thanks!
Thank you! I'll check those out when I'm in an isekai mood.
So sorry I just realised you wanted non isekai
It's fine! I tend to not read isekai too much, so it's good to broaden my tastes.
Ok :)
oh I forgot about this : https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/suicide_girl/
Oh thanks I love that author! I think I dropped that one when they introduced the perverted lesbian stereotype though. How'd she get handled?
Ah I see, understandable
I'm looking for an anthology series written by one author. There was only one chapter TLed, and although the only genre listed was BL, it was a GL(ish) oneshot.
It's about a woman in her late 20s who greets a woman in her 50s in her garden because she thinks the older woman is cool. In the last part, she tries to strike up a conversation with the woman by saying her gardens pretty, and the older woman calls her pretty back. Any help would be appreciated for this, thanks!
Please give me recs for manga where the enemies or villain are incomprehensible eldritch horrors. Something like The Sunless Sea, or Local 58, or anything where they're just not humanoid and more feral in nature. Preferably not the H.P Lovecraft adaptations since I've already read some of those. Thank you in advance.
Also happy new year for everyone celebrating! Hope this year brings you joy.
Does anyone know this action manga where the MC is an assassin in a wheelchair? His sister helps him out with hits because he has some mental trauma and there's some plot point about him killing people making it better or something stupid like that. I remember his wheelchair had like blades attached to it and he'd wear like some Kamen Rider suit when performing the hits. TiA!
something a highass person would write a plot like this hahhaha
It was pretty weird, but tbf I might be misremembering a few details.
Any manga like Love Bullet by inee? Like more modern cupid comedy stuff. GL, BL or straight is fine ty.
pls rec some manga with good worldbuilding. like you can tell the author put hours plotting every detail. no isekai tho plz. tia
Get well soon
tyyy
What OSTs do you guys listen to when reading manga? My playlist kind of sucks rn and I need suggestions.
Minami, and Ison.
What tracks from Ison do you think are the best?
I go with full albums usually,my favourite is the one with the Neige singer collaboration Inner Space
I'm listening to it rn and I really like it, thanks!
I'm happy you like it!
This is a really shit description, but does anyone know of a historical BL where one of the characters is some circus performer with very wild red hair and the other has chonmage? I don't know anything about the plot sadly.
