Manga & Friends

This is a list of the anime I’ve watched and the manga/comics/webtoons I’ve read, in alphabetical order. Things to note:

• It is likely not exhaustive. I forget stuff.
• I don’t follow everything to completion. I quit when it feels like a drag. People tell me the plot anyway.

Anime and Manga

• Beyblade
  The first season.
• Cardcaptors
  My first anime ever.
• Chainsaw Man
• Claymore
  The manga. The anime had to finish early because the manga didn’t catch up, but it was worth the time it took.
• Death Note
  Duh.
• Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
• Dragon Ball
  Till the Majin Buu arc; haven’t followed GT or Super.
• Elfen Lied
• Fairy Tail
  Till the Spriggan arc.
• Fullmetal Alchemist
  The manga, but I’ve been told the Brotherhood anime is awesome.
• Grand Blue Hilarious.
• Hyouka
  Not everyone likes this, because it never gets exciting, but that’s precisely what I appreciate: this is something you can watch to chill after all the action-packed shōnen.
• Kimi no Na wa
• Naruto
• One-Punch Man
• Pokémon
  Till some point in Unova.
• Pokémon Adventures
  Till the FireRed/LeafGreen arc. Green is BAE. 💚
• Shingeki no Kyojin
  Till the Marley arc.
• Shokugeki no Soma
  Two seasons; will resume some day.
• Spy × Family

Webtoons

• Adventures of God
  Short, hilarious strips.
• Boyfriend of the Dead
  Tons of geeky references.
• City of Dead Sorcerer
  Till the Jeeyul training arc.
• Deadlove
• The Gamer
• Internet Explorer
  Nothing interesting, except a personified representation of important entities in web history.
• Lookism
  High school gang wars.
• Love Advice from the Great Duke of Hell
• Weak Hero
  More high school gang wars.

American Comics

• Batman: White Knight and its sequels (aka “Murphyverse”)
  An uncanny spin on the classic Batman world. Each story is short but not rushed. The art is impeccable. Harley Quinn’s role is oddly endearing, and I don’t mean in the usual sense.
• Hawkeye (2012)
  This is what the Marvel Studios TV series was loosely based on. Delightfully fun. Kate Bishop has become one of my favourite Marvel characters.
• Hawkeye (2016)
  Where Kate Bishop is the protagonist. This run also gives a lot of attention to the women in Marvel and tries to thwart the stereotypes.
• All-New Wolverine (2015)
  Laura Kinney’s story as the new Wolverine. Also introduces her clone sister, Gabby, who is a sweet but badass kid and another one of my favourite Marvel characters.
• House of M (2006)
• Marvel’s Wastelands
  This is a set of dystopian stories where most heroes have been killed. A fascinating take on some of our favourite characters trying to get by in their old age in a world that has gone to shit. Here’s the reading order:
  1. Wolverine: Old Man Logan (which is Wolverine (2003) chapters #66 to #72, followed by Wolverine Giant-Size: Old Man Logan)
  2. Old Man Logan (2015)
  3. Old Man Logan (2016)
     A bit dragged out, but necessary reading.
  4. Deadpool vs. Old Man Logan
     Optional spinoff.
  5. Old Man Hawkeye
  6. Dead Man Logan
  7. Old Man Quill
  8. Avengers of the Wastelands
  9. Wastelanders
     There are a few other minor appearances of Old Man Logan and Ashley Barton, but I didn’t bother checking them out.
• The Walking Dead
  Excellent art, storyline and dialogue. Never disappoints.
