@ashher...it's interesting because the way you put it, it looks like Vinland Saga got worse, where in fact it hasn't...it's just that other stuff are way better...

I will explain why the changes in the top...
Blame! has occupied the first place for a long time now, it's just that I didn't update my list:sweat...I forget about this section...sorry

Eden...as we've talked about this in another section, you probably concluded that I was very impressed...it was an incredible journey, and I know U've started it, so I hope U'll finish it soon

Also I know(I think) that you read both Berserk and Monster...while you know why Monster is brilliant, Berserk is considered on the downhill lately, but not by me...the pace is slow, but it was always slow, but I just love the whole sea-battle approach, and the possible existence of entities with great power, and not under the influence of the God Hands

And another entry is Noblesse...it's nothing short of brilliant, but somehow didn't manage to hit a certain depth as the other before it

@jorped...

I don't see how things were happening out of nowhere in The Breaker, except the beginning...there's a solid background for the Nine Arts, and there is a logical chain in the events...

But as Jammin already said, the political approach is something pretty new, and adds an interesting twist to the story...but if things seem to be random right now, that's because we have yet to see where certain loyalties lie...

And as to why Naruto isn't nr 1 anymore...well I explained that in my reply to ashher...I think Naruto is very good, or at least has something other mangas in its category don't have...but there are mangas that are easily better...

Okey but you actually rated it below Bleach. Now your list is your list and everyone has his preferences...i'm just saying my mind that's all :D

Haha, true dat...well my list is about entertainment, and despite the fails that Bleach has, I always liked it...The Deicide Saga is far the best and this new arc...well...it's average...Kubo got a bit entangled I think:p

And this explains why a very well written manga such as Claymore is in last place

Ok i've decided i'll try to make my list. there are several problems for me though. The total number of mangas that i actually follow/still interested in and the number i finished is not much. I start a lot of mangas until something strikes me and compels me to read on...the rest just fades out. Also i didn't read mangas like FMA, Monster and Death note since i watched the animes(and watched the movie in case of Oldboy),otherwise they would've made the list for sure. So i'm not sure i'll be able to reach upto 20.

1. Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan(Our Happy Times).
2. Freesia
3. 20th/21st century boys
4. Vinland Saga
5. Blade of the Immortal
6. Benkei in New York
7. Basilisk
8. Vagabond
9. Great Teacher Onizuka
10. Ares
11. Hellsing
12. Veritas
13. Berserk
14. Dogs
15. Priest
16. Naruto
17. Mirai Nikki(Future Diary)
18. D. Grey man

some other mangas that i like:

Blame!
Hunter x Hunter
Dorehedoro
Pandora Hearts
Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer

I need finish/catch upto them before i can decide about them.

the breaker is indeed mediocre at best, imo. But the breaker:new wave is a huge improvement over its prequel...in plotlines, if not in fights too.
I never thought it improved, it's still only mediocre and even was boring for some chapters. The plot moved forward way too slow and the whole political scheme is just something up in the air. And it looks like a
supposed dead
person is coming back, it's kinda ridiculous.


Time to update my list (in no specific order):

1. Berserk
2. Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan
3. Vinland Saga
4. FMA
5. Shingeki no Kyojin
6. Death Note
7. Liar Game
8. Deadman Wonderland
9. Naruto
10. Nurarihyon no Mago
11. Hunter x Hunter
12. Kimi ni Todoke
13. Noblesse
14. Kokou no Hito
15. Alive - The Final Evolution
16. Bakuman
17. Bleach
18. Shamo
19. Tegami Bachi
20. D.Gray-man

Well i like the second part bit better cause the
annoyingly all-winning master is gone
..which makes it a little open,the other guys/factions seems to count for something unlike before.

And yes what you mentioned in the spoiler tag is annoying...but since it was only the starting hint of that well-used and hardly good trope, i'll wait to see how it plays out.

I can understand someone not liking that about The Breaker: New Waves, but it's a fairly small thing(if it even happens). Especially when compared to the stunts a series like Naruto has pulled.
I mean, if attempting to resurrect one person is "kinda ridiculous" what do you call successfully doing it to 3 dozen people? Not to mention the Pain attack thing which was even more extreme.
If Naruto can get away with all that, more or less, the breaker should be entitled to at least one mulligan.

I'm also not exactly sure what you mean by "political scheme". I don't think there is much of a specific political scheme in The Breaker: New Waves yet.

What there is, is a sense of a political subculture that the series molds it's plot. People more often than not are driven to action by the clan or faction to which they belong. And the main character enters this world as an outsider trying to navigate through it all as the reluctantly appointed head of one such clan.

This is further complicated by...
The fact that his teacher has basically become an anarchist. So if Shioon attempts to lead his clan it will put him at odds with his former teacher.

Leaving Shioon in the middle of a delicate balancing act. Between the Murim(who want his teacher dead) and his teacher(who wants the the Murim destroyed at any cost), and the clan he has been made leader of(whose motives are all over the place); with him stuck in the middle trying to do what's right without getting himself or his friends caught in the crossfire.

It's those elements of complexity that hooked me on the series:D.

------------------------------------

Though if it's not your thing, it's not your thing. Personal tastes do vary.:amuse

@ashher, I just want to say that almost all the mangas you put above Naruto are seinen or not-shounen titles.. hip hip hooray, shounen still rlZ!!!! XDXD Naruto rlZ! XDXDXD

My previous list (I'm shocked xD):
My golden six ;p (nothing more read ehh ;p )

1. I's (the best manga ever for me, due to normal style japanese life and great art of Katsura-senpai)
2. Naruto (I didn;t suppose it's so great until i read it on summer)
3. DeathNote (It's superb addictive to read IT ALL ^^)
4. Bleach (I think that it has better art than Naruto now, but It's lower than Naruto, becaue it lacks something.. You know, it has MULTUUUM characters, and some of them will be having only one battle probably, and some of them none.. Looking at 250 chapters of Naruto you see large differnce in characters fighting via in Naruto and in Bleach)
5. Dragonball (classic)
6. Dr.Slump (omg one of the funniest series i ever read xD)

My 'new' list top 27 won't change much/or maybe it will xd <only Bleach dropped heavily> although I read a few more titles, mainly some shounens/seinens (but I don't put them on a list on purpose: they haven't got major impact on me):

1. I's (the best manga ever for me, due to normal style japanese life and great art of Katsura-senpai. Abnormaly very addictive. The only manga ever for which I wrote a review <not counting a review of Naruto manga here laaater on. Not to mention that at some point I wanted with my friends to make a site only about I"s manga, haha)
2. Shoot! (the best soccer manga for me <I know, I know, Captain Tsubasa is still awesome but I'm one of those who think Shoot! is better>, anime even better with nice soundtrack!)
3. Naruto (still the best fighting shounen for me, whether it has good or bad moments. I love complexity of this title, especially those all around things taken from rl <fighting styles, myths/legends, etc.> and incorporated into this manga by Kishi)
4. Berserk (seinen masterpiece, BUT if 'pacing' will keep up, I don't know if this 'masterpiece' feeling will keep me with this title, or keep this title so high in my top20..)
5. Code: Breaker (the second best fighting shounen for me out there: magnificent art, quite complex story, good comedy and fantastic characters with pretty short/mid-long battles similar to how samurais fought: who strikes first can be the winner <though its not with katanas but with special abilities, hehe> And the main protagonist.. well, antihero, is someone you won't find in any other fighting shounen, definitely)
6. Trigun (awesome main character, awesome secondary characters, awesome plot, awesome guns <xD>, awesome world, and.. love & peace! <3 )
7. DeathNote (I still consider this title extremely well written, not to mention well drawn)
8. FMA (awesome shounen with nice art, cool characters <Roy xd> and story which is so much interesting that you should read it at one go <especially for those who weren't reading it on monthly basis, I'm jealous xD>)
9. AKIRA (cyberpunk at its best!)
10. Hellsing (the first seinen title on my list <Gantz should be here too but oh well, I'm really behind this title : ( >; I like vampires theme in general, I loved Alucard form the beginning <as well as Anderson>, and fights are nice with, of course, awesome art)
11. Jackals (another bloody seinen with awesome art + awesome weapons xD Without spoilers: when Kuugo appeared in Bleach, I thought: wow, Kubo had to read Jackals because Kuugo's sword is just taken from this title :p No offence Bleach fans!)
12. 20th Century Boys (Friend and nuff' said)
13. Dragonball (classic - if it wasn't for Naruto, I would still consider it the best fighting shounen ever. BUT Classic is classic, if it wasn't for DB, many fighting shounens could look differently now. Not to mention my sentiment for this title is still pretty strong!)
14. Sailor Moon (the first shoujo on my list - masterpiece, fighting shounen for girls <joking> Another title which has my strong sentiment towards it - I just can't help not putting it at least mid-high)
15. Dr.Slump (one of the funniest series I have ever read - still true when I look at this manga today, haha xD)
16. Great Teacher Onizuka (should be higher xd)
17. Bastard!! (classic no matter how long it is)
18. The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi (funny.. funny world xD)
19. One Piece (very good fighting shounen - for maaaaany the epitome of the perfect fighting shounen BUT not for me)
20. To-LOVE-Ru (probably the only ecchi series in my top which I enjoy from the very start to the very end)
AND others:
21. Bleach (In general, Bleach is waaay less interesting than it used to be. After SS arc the overall quality of the manga dropped for me; I'm not saying it still doesn't interest me, but nowadays I'm only following Bleach due to some of the characters I love in the series)
22. Toradora! (just few words: Ryuuji Takasu and Taiga Aisaka = win <3 )
23. Suzuka (another 'school life' xd nice story, I'm probably into such mangas)
24. Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE (sentiment)
25. Fushigi Yuugi (sentiment)
26. Dance in the Vampire Bund (vampires xd)
27. Kimi ni Todoke (the main protagonist if 'funny' girl xP)
Hatsukoi Limited (it had potential to be on my list - I still cannot believe it got cancelled so fast : ( )

btw. only the first spot is my REAL nr 1 - the rest of the titles, when I look at it after I've written them, could be put in any particular order probably - I like every one of them in one way or the other (though top10 I would not change, probably..) Also, sme titles at the end have high chances to go even higher, like Kimi ni Todoke for example <3 Thats it.

^ ah yes. I guess i usually prefer seinen to shonen. But placing Naruto was really hard. Still now i'm not sure whether i should put it above Dogs and Priest or not. Looking back, i guess i need diversify a little. May be i should try some shoju or sports mangas.

These aren't necessarily in any kind of order. They each have their own strengths and some can't even be compared. You just can't compare Eden: It's And Endless World! with Yotsuba&!. They are too different and one isn't necessarily better than the other. At least not in my eyes.

Also, I wish I was articulate enough to explain exactly why I love each of these manga, but my words wouldn't do these amazing manga justice.

3. Toriko (Ongoing) - Really good "newcomer" with lots of potential
4. Death Note (Finished) - The Plot can give you an orgasm
5. Berserk (Ongoing) - Amazing plot and art. The golden age arc <3
6. Bakuman (Ongoing) - Interesting!
7. Naruto (Ongoing) - Part 1 would've ranked higher, but still very good.
8. Prince of Tennis (Finished) - Love the characters!
9. Vinland Saga (Ongoing) - Realistic manga with awesome art.
10. Love Hina (Finished) - Love the humor and the characters!
11. Hajime No Ippo (Ongoing) - How can you make almost 1000 chapters about boxing interesting? Exceptional!
12. Fullmetal Alchemist (Finished) - Good plot and characters. One of very few manga I've read with a good ending.

21. Psyren (Finished) - Interesting plot, but a little up and down.
22. Soul Eater (Ongoing) - Very good, but lack something compared to top 20.
23. D.Gray-man (Ongoing) - Very good, but lack something compared to top 20.
23. Shaman King (Finished) - Good manga, but the last 100 chapters messed it up.
24. Arakawa Under the Bridge (Ongoing) - Seriously funny and amazing characters.
25. Ibitsu (Finished) - Creepy as hell!
26. Katekyo Hitman Reborn (Ongoing) - Good when it's good, really bad when it's bad
