By the way those are some good titles. A friend gave me a large format book of Rurouni Kenshin a while back ( should find it and finish it) and although I have only read One Piece up to the 15th book or so I have plans to buy a box set in the future (I know there are at least 3 now) and catch up a little bit. ( I am up to episode 490 or so though on the anime . Thank goodness for marathon modes. ) :)

So, to finish up. If you all have something you could suggest be it whatever genre, please drop me a line. Also, completely unrelated to this group, but it kinda is, I've been reading a lot of LitRPG's which have seem to taken off since SAO. So if you have any suggestions there. Drop me a line. I'm always looking to make new friends on GR, so if you wanna friend request. go ahead.
Have a good one!

I've been a bit MIA from Goodreads groups so sorry for the late reply! I haven't seen Shingeki no Bahamut: Virgin Soul yet, but will definitely add it to my list!
And in Boku no hero academia, I definitely ship Uraraka with Midoriya. I can't help it, I think they're adorable together.


Hi, I see you are really into Viz Carlos. Let's see if we can get you into Kodansha to start with your travel. :)





Hi Michael. :) I am pretty sure we have at least one other down underer floating around but I might be mistaken. Being a lot closer to Japan itself do you read any of that stuff too or just stick to the english stuff?

Also my favorite manga is Pandora Hearts or Boku No Hero Academia. Okay bai I'll stop rambling.


Hiya Abby I like emotional manga as well. One of my favorite is My Love Story!! where I felt a crazy amount of emotions even though its only 13 volumes long. :)

Hi Shane. Great action series I hope you find even more favorites (*cough* Fairy Tail just ended at 63.)
Hello everyone! I'm Kas and I love all kinds of anime and manga. Any recommends are more than welcome!


Fairy Tail is amazing up until the last three arcs. In my opinion, it had a crappy ending, but the first few arcs are fantastic.

The main story of Fairy Tail is indeed complete at 63 volumes and 549 chapters. However it seems the novel is still publishing.

I have quite odd tastes and don't really enjoy much 'meta' anime/manga.

Tried To Your Eternity, Vol. 1 yet?
Hi Cassie,
Gonna say My Love Story!!, Vol. 1 because it is one of my faves even if it is more Shojo then slice. :)
Hi Hunter. I agree The Girl from the Other Side: Siúil, A Rún, Volume 1 is a great series like a fairy tail or something akin but with simple designs that still draw your attention. How about stuff from Kore Yamazaki?
Hi Pasha,
I personally enjoy parody and a bit of meta but we can't all share the same interests or the world would be a boring place. Good manga choices by the way. For new fans I always like to mention Black Butler, Vol. 1 but not the 1st two seasons of the anime unless you don't mind a mess. :)

I'm a compulsive book buyer and reader that has grown up with anime and manga....

nice to meet you!


Nice choices Elizabeth. Have you read Black Butler yet? If not you should give it a try. :)

That series is a classic and although I haven't read it myself one day I hope to get the 19 volumes since I know I like the anime. I hope you find all sort of interesting things here. :)

My name is Samantha and I’m from London UK.
I like to read manga books along with watching anime.
My favourite manga and anime are Fruits Basket and Attack on Titan.

Hi Samanatha. :)
Those are some great series and I hope you discover even more interesting series (I usually suggest Black Butler for the art, humor, and action) as time moves forever forward. :)

Hi Cat,
Black Butler is one of my favorites too (as seen right above this post) and I like your other series too even though I was a little surprised to see +Anima until I realized you also took a 2 year break so it is believable you caught this rare gem.
I find when putting books into good reads it is easiest to use the ISBN number (usually found around the UPC) and type it in the search books on top of the page. If put in right the exact book you have in your hand should pop up so you won't have to go through all the versions.
Oh! Let me ask you Cat...are you alive or dead? Radioactivity is nothing to scoff at. :)

I stated watching anime a few years ago and got into manga from there.

Hi Gage. :)
Personally I am not into yaoi myself (actually prefer to avoid it in general) but we all have different tastes which makes for a great, diverse community. Now just out of curiosity are you reading the manga too or just the light novels of How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord: Volume 1 because I have been considering trying the series though I might just stick with Spice and Wolf for the time being.

I don’t like when where the MC feels a character up (or more) for some made up magical reason.
I haven’t read the manga, but in my experience manga with a lot of action is hard to read. I tried several volumes of A Certain Scientific Accelerator before I gave up because the plot barely got started before the volumes were over. JMO though!

Have you tried

I haven't seen s2 of Oregairu but s1 was so good and I definitely plan to try the manga&LN at some point.
I say that but I've had the first vol of



Thank you! Yu Yu Hakusho is a masterpiece you will not regret

Thanks, Maiko-Chan! I think Doushitemo Furetenaki was one of the first I read, but I confess I don’t remember it very well. I think I’ll re-Read it tonight.😀

Um, I love reading manga books, japanese literature (in general) and fantasy.
My favorite anime, manga and light novels is Bungou Stray Dogs.
Nice to meet you

I’ve watched Bungou Stray Dogs. It’s great. I’ll have to check out the manga and light novels!
Welcome!

I enjoy manga & anime so much I'm actually doing a thesis on some of them! I'm specifically studying Fate/stay night, Log Horizon and Code Geass, one of my all-time favourite anime. I'm currently reading Akatsuki no Yona, Seiro Opera, Q and Shinobi Shijuusou. Nice to meet you! :)
