Manga I'm Reading

[@tsukkinotes]

yes i love the reading logs!! i picked up bride's story bc of you and highly enjoyed it, even though i keep up with you on ig it's nice to see a wrap up in this format too

[@hvlmanga]

Ahh thank you!! I'm also sooo glad to hear you liked Bride's Story!

[@LoneLionLeo]

So refreshing to see mangatubers talk about the content of manga instead of talking of manga they bought and haven’t read. I deeply enjoy these videos as they help me pick up series. I’m waiting for my Ragna crimson 5 in the mail too 😭

[@hvlmanga]

Thank you :)

[@RomantasyGirl]

I enjoy reading logs more than manga hauls!

[@lidlod2556]

Ahhh masion ikkoku is so goodddd 😩😩 my favourite manga at the moment

[@hvlmanga]

ITS SO GOOD

[@tdotitan8855]

I was kinda bored of anime and manga for awhile and trying to find something "special" and didnt really find it, i tried watching ushio no tora and while it was ok i kinda got bored with it around episode 21 even though its past where it was supposed to "get good" it was still ok but it felt a bit generic.... So i tried some of Ragna Crimson and wasnt really feeling it, but I tried reading Pluto and I read through all of it today lmao, you were right it is hard to stop.... It really was a great story and it felt like i have found something new after reading manga/watching anime for probably 7 or 8 years of my main entertainment. I have heard this story recommended to me quite a few times but i am glad i decided to give it a shot.... it makes me want to actually read the original astro boy lol. Great video thanks for the recommendations.

Maison is actually the French word for house. You don't pronounce the letter N at the end of the word so it should sound like Mé-zon. I'm not trying to be condescending, but I just figured I'd give my two cents y'know :))

[@hvlmanga]

This is super helpful!! Thank you!!

[@AngelicxKaede]

I recently binged Pluto (as I picked up all of Urasawa's available manga in English and decided to start with the shorter series), and maaaaan the pacing, the characters, the story. It really gripped my heart and I was so invested in it. I am super excited to get int his other works. I remember getting a Bride's story years ago. Only volume 1 but the art is gorgeous. Hoping for a nice sale to pick up the rest soon.

[@hvlmanga]

I'm so glad you enjoyed Pluto! Definitely a great read :)

[@esmeemalfoy3675]

AAAA IM JUST GETTING INTO MANGA AND I AM ABSOLUTELY LOVING AND BINGE-WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS AND YOU ARE SO CUTEE

YAY! Welcome to the community :))

@@hvlmanga Aww thank you so muchh

[@MyWaifuandMe]

wait a damn second. we are supposed to READ the manga that we buy?!! I had no idea. /s but for real always great to hear your thoughts. Ragna Crimson is one that is at every book store but I have never heard someone actually talk about so its really good to hear some perspective on it!! Also LOL happy Dragonball was a great read for you! - Jerry

[@hvlmanga]

Reading manga - what a crazy thought I KNOW 🤣

[@Ka_ru_su]

Madison Ikkoku is my all time favorite. I’m glad you’re enjoying it. Not cheap but worth it. Great vid

[@hvlmanga]

I completely agree!

[@_emiku]

i'm a new subscriber so i apologize if you've already talked about this series but i'd like to recommend Bungou Stray Dogs. It's a seinen (although i also see people labeling it as a shounen) with lots of action plus the characters are incredibly interesting imo so yeah. The first 4-5 volumes can get a little confusing sometimes plot-wise but i promise it gets much much better after that 🌷

[@hvlmanga]

Thanks for the recommendation!!

[@halliday6066]

Such a chill and relaxing video I really enjoy reading logs!! (: I haven't been reading a ton lately but I did read blue period volume 6 and beyond the clouds volume 4 today and they were very enjoyable reads 📖❤

[@hvlmanga]

I'm glad you're enjoying those reads! :)

[@rypumpsiron186]

You’ll find out goku’s origins in dbz 😂 I’m so glad you’re enjoying a fantastic story. Original dragon ball is such an underrated story and isn’t talked about enough. Some of the fandom haven’t even seen the original.

[@hvlmanga]

That's crazy! OG Dragon ball is great!

[@mandithezombiegamers155]

A quick heads up you could of got a good deal on amazon for the whole dragonball box set, as well as dragonball z box set is back in stock as well. Great selections by the way and kaiju no 8 just dropped on the 5th along with chainsaw man.

[@trentguillory7204]

loving that complete dragonballz set behind you.

[@hvlmanga]

It looks so good 😮‍💨

[@bebopfirefly]

I will say if you like DBZ you should check out Super. I'm one of those who grew up watching DB and DBZ but I reread the series last summer and it hold up so well, so I started into Super and I'm enjoying it so much!

[@hvlmanga]

Thank you!!

[@retired.read.craft.cruise]

Loved this video, especially with all the variety.

[@hvlmanga]

Thanks :))

[@forsakenV12]

Ragna crimson seems like a manga I would be into and Pluto

[@geomilligano9408]

I started reading beastars which you’ve been saying is great for a while now and I thought I would hate it, and I picked up volume 1 and It’s soo good!

[@hvlmanga]

Yay!! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@journeythrufire]

I've been reading Berserk, Fairy Tail, Fullmetal Alchemist, and Seven Deadly Sins. My favorite so far would probably have to be berserk because of the seinen vibes and detailed art. You've made me wanna get Ragna Crimson and Pluto too. Thank you! :)

[@hvlmanga]

Those are some great series!! I hope you enjoy Ragna and Pluto :)

[@kaitlinschneider845]

I really enjoy these types of videos! Love A Bride's Story, so I'm excited to see a mangatuber pick the series up and love it too. The art is just incredible! Ragna Crimson looks interesting, I'll have to check it out. I recently read through all of Laid-Back Camp. It's such a wholesome and comforting slice of life.

[@KongFuzii]

Kaoru Mori's author notes are great

[@hvlmanga]

Agreed!

[@coleton7048]

Awesome video! I grew up with the DB and DBZ anime as a kid. It's fantastic. I'll definitely read the manga when I'm feeling the nostalgia bug someday. Adding Pluto and Ragna Crimson to my list! :)

[@hvlmanga]

I hope you enjoy them!!

[@danielalancasey]

Since you asked, I prefer reading log vids over Manga hauls.

[@notoriouspenguin]

Really enjoyed this reading log especially with a bit more variety of genres you've been reading. I generally have liked manga you've suggested before and sounds like some good ones to check out.

[@neontodstudio]

Glad you enjoyed Pluto! It's the first series I collected completely, so it's very nostalgic for me :)

[@hvlmanga]

It's a great series!

[@twaits8676]

I, personally enjoy this, I like getting other people's takes on different Manga. I enjoyed your take on Dragon Ball, albeit sometimes humorous. I grew up with that and can't wait to dive in to Dragon Ball Z. Dragon Ball was definitely more about the adventure and humor in my opinion than it was about the fights, like Dragon Ball Z was. Keep doing it, I enjoy these. I also love seeing the differences from Manga to Anime. Almost more satisfying to read the Manga, because the Anime is so drawn out for a 16 volume Manga. Thanks!

[@hvlmanga]

Yes! The Vizbigs may not be the cheapest way to collect but the spines look so GOOD🤣

[@MargReadsManga]

Yes!! Some excellent series! So happy you picked up Bride’s Story and Maison Ikkoku! Both of these releases are so niiice! I order both of these from RightStuf to help with that hefty cover price… if you can survive the wait time 😂

[@hvlmanga]

Yes! Rightstuf is the move... they are a bit pricey haha!

[@bostligacia]

I picked up ragna crimson bcuz of you and i thought it was gonna be a normal sized viz vol and i was sad because i thought that and i got it expensive then when it came it was ginormous and i thought this was cheaper because it as so high quality

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

Yea I’ve just started reading Dragon Ball too, I started reading it digitally on the Shonen app but as soon as I realised I loved it I bought the box set, damn I didn’t see the Vizbig versions of it, and crap I ended up paying more for the box set than had I bought the Vizbig’s. I did get the first 2 Vizbig’s of Dragon Ball Z, so I’ll collect it in the Vizbig’s. I much prefer Vizbig’s.

[@hvlmanga]

The Vizbig's are really nice!!

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

I’m currently reading Edens Zero, Vagabond & Jujutsu Kaisen, I’m waiting on vol 13 & 14 of Claymore to arrive, as soon as they arrive I’ll finish the entire series as I have all the rest of the volumes, I binged the first 12 volumes so quick, really love this story. I’m sick waiting on these 2 volumes, they left Australia over 4 weeks ago. I’m also waiting on the Dragon Ball box set to arrive, I started reading it on the Shonen app and loved it, so I’ll start that as soon as it arrives. After that I’m not sure what to start, Vinland Saga, JoJo’s or Bleach, or get back to My Hero Academia & Attack on Titan.

[@hvlmanga]

Nice!! Those are some great series :)

[@torwynd3131]

I really love historical fiction literature and manga so I want to check out A brides Tale. It looks good. I may check out that Ragna Crimson series as well. This month I have been trying to get caught up on Golden Kamuy because vol 26 is on the way. I just finished collecting Dorohedoro and read all that last week and picked up the Mud and Sludge art book which is amazing btw. I'm currently reading Dead Dead Demons (picked up all 10 vols) and am really liking it so far as well. I have all of Hinamatsuri on the way so I will probably be reading that next week. I love the anime so much I had to get the manga. I can't recommend the anime enough and I hope the manga is even better.

[@hvlmanga]

I'll have to look into a brides tale!!

[@torwynd3131]

@@hvlmanga Don't you already have that. I thought you recommended it in the vid?

Thanks for sharing I ran out of fuel with Maison Ikkoku I have vols 1-4 but that will be it for me the potential for a relationship just kept getting prolonged annoyingly .

That's completely understandable, its definitely a slow burn!

Hope you enjoy the rest of dragon ball aswell

I'm glad I could help!!

[@trentguillory7204]

can't wait for you to binge DBZ.

[@LoneLionLeo]

Gurl you’re about to embark in the grand adventure that is dbz. Dragon ball was a mystical adventure but dbz is a just awesome. An action packed space opera with martial arts, time travel, aliens, robots, demons, gods, fusions, Heaven, hell. Multiple transformation that make you forget the great ape exists. You’ll finally notice how dbz influenced the entire Shonen genre structure. You’ll definitely find out why goku has a tail and more. I’ll just tell you that 😅

[@hvlmanga]

I'm super excited to read it!!

[@yamivirus3275]

I like Dragonball but DBZ is on another level. It is amazing. Highly recommend.

[@hvlmanga]

Soo excited to get into it!!

[@viniciusjdasilva8555]

This is some good content

[@Piercewasright]

If you like history, you should check out Europa the Last Battle on Odysee. It is a documentary but entertaining and eye opening none the less.

[@hvlmanga]

OO! Thank you for the recommendation!!

[@cryn6519]

Hey HVL, don't know if you can find em for a nice price right now, but honestly; Read One Piece if you like Dragonball, if you haven't already of course... Eiichiro Oda is heavily inspired by that series, and its currently almost 100 volumes of pure enjoyment.

[@hvlmanga]

Currently working my way through OP! It's great!

[@Mergerie_Smithaton]

Came across Ragna Crimson when looking for a Berserk type manga. It’s on my list. My very long list.
