Let's say i wanted to buy myself mangas and or animes for Christmas and or my birth soon after, what would you recommend? I don't mean moeshit or other embarrassing shit, i mean stuff that manly and or has an interesting story
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure...

...though in all seriousness it actually is good. It's just gay in a He-Man kind of way.

Others:

Akira
Battle Angel Alita
Berserk
Blame
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (the movie is garbage by comparison)
Vinland Saga
Don't think I didn't see Blame! in there. :lol: Good shit though. Hope that means you read it.

GANTZ is another huge one for me. The teenagers actually act and sound like real teens. The main character is a selfish, cowardly, horny dick. But that's because he's a typical teenager. The girls are typical teenage girls. Some of the kids are nerds, some are jocks, sometimes there are yakuza and japanese businessmen, etc. The quality of character writing is very high. Some people didn't like the third act twist, but I personally had no issues at all with it. It felt like a natural conclusion from all the "death games" happening beforehand. If those games hadn't led to anything, I would have felt cheated. The bulk of the character development happens in the final third anyway.

Blade of the Immortal is beloved the world over, and for good reason. The art only improves and the final few volumes are some of the best art I've ever seen.

Read the first volume of Blame, I knew once I typed that you'd grin you fucking weeb.

Funny you mention Blade of the Immortal, just read the first volume a few days ago, unlike Lobe Wolf and Cub (still good) I don't get burned out from continuously reading a bunch of short stories.

The art improves so much between volume 1 and volume 30 it's fucking unreal, and the blade of the immortal guy was winning art awards pretty much from day 1.

The story is a lot like the japanese film Kill! or 3 Outlaw Samurai. It's a typical japanese samurai story of honor and revenge mixed with some modern-day alternative fashions a la Samurai Champloo. In fact, Champloo's better 2 and 3-parters feel and look a lot like Blade of the Immortal.

I should also recommend Shigurui: Death Frenzy. The manga is wild. There's shit in there that I've never seen in any other story, japanese or otherwise. It's like mixing Videodrome/The Thing with Yojinbo.

Man, I think I need to start reading Blade of the Immortal again. Dunno why I stopped in the first place, the villains there were lovingly deranged.

I wouldn't post if a dub actor died. They are literally nobodies to me, unless they happen to have a successful voice acting career outside of dubs.
>implying VAs aren't nobodies

That's maybe why Jotaro is arguably the most popular jojo character because he isn't "gay" posing around but just badass, sorta like guts from berserk.
It's not even remotely gay. It's turbo masculine, which is why fags like that stuff.
