can someone recommend anything with a GOOD plot, like its genuinely intelligent and well thought out. I will read any genre, just want something written by someone with active brain cells
If you're looking for a story with a well-thought out and written plot, then look no further than the BEST new-gen DARK FANTASY, ACTION SHOUNEN MANGA of the 2020s, the peak of human literature, Kagurabachi! If you're looking for a story with a more slow-burning pacing and world-building, but masterfully-written plot, realistically written and interesting characters with great designs, GORGEOUS ART that evolves with each new chapter, MOVIE-LIKE fighting choreography, BEAUTIFUL panelling and composition and NO ROMANCE, ZERO FANSERVICE AND ABSOLUTELY NO SEXUALISATION, ESPECIALLY OF IT'S FEMALE CAST!! OH ALSO IMPORTANT MENTION; DON'T DROP THIS AT CHAPTER 58 (IYKYK), TRUST THE PROCESS OF HOKAZONO-SENSEI'S GENIUS!! GO READ IT NOW!!!
