What are the BEST Manga For BEGINNERS?

[00:00] I don't know what to read there's so

[00:01] many manga volumes I'm just getting into

[00:02] and everyone says everything's the best

[00:03] volume and there's just too many to even

[00:05] pick from I don't know what to read calm

[00:07] down my beginner manga friend I'm here

[00:08] to tell you the way of manga and teach

[00:10] you exactly which ones you should be

[00:11] reading as a beginner so here we go

[00:13] let's get into my five recommendations

[00:14] for beginner manga readers to help you

[00:16] jump start your reading journey and not

[00:17] give you too many headaches let's go let

[00:19] me give you a breakdown of what I'm

[00:20] basing these mangas off of there's five

[00:22] key components to a beginner manga for

[00:24] me number one the art needs to be clean

[00:26] if the art is super hard to read super

[00:27] dark super cluttered it's not going to

[00:29] be in here all of these mangas I'm going

[00:30] to recommend are going to have easy art

[00:32] that's going to be easy for you to read

[00:33] while your eyes get used to reading

[00:34] manga number two they have to be readily

[00:36] available if they're not readily

[00:37] available they will not be on the list

[00:39] number three is going to be the story

[00:40] the story is going to be simple but good

[00:42] I don't think you should be reading

[00:43] anything that is mind-blowing yet

[00:44] because you're just getting into reading

[00:45] manga for the first time and you're

[00:46] probably going to miss a lot of things

[00:48] if the story is over overwhelming when

[00:50] you're still trying to like figure out

[00:51] how to read it to begin with number two

[00:53] or number four whatever it is they need

[00:54] to be cheap I am not going to be

[00:55] recommending anything that's going to

[00:56] cost you tons of money like berserk I

[00:58] see some people recommend berserk

[00:59] berserk Deluxe is $50 a book and there's

[01:01] 14 of them do the math on that it's like

[01:03] $700 no no no no no I'm not going to be

[01:05] recommending bleach one piece even

[01:06] though bleach is my favorite manga it's

[01:08] long and it's expensive I know it's not

[01:09] good for beginners and lastly they have

[01:11] to look cool you're building a

[01:13] collection you want it to look cool we

[01:14] all do trust me I that's the only reason

[01:17] I have all this is to look cool I'm

[01:19] kidding yeah they need to have cool

[01:20] spines that look on a shelf when lined

[01:21] up and they need to have cool covers so

[01:23] all these series are going to follow

[01:24] those five recommendations but um yeah

[01:25] let's get into it so at number five we

[01:27] have this beautiful series called sack

[01:30] days which follows this old fat man

[01:32] named Taro Sakamoto who in his prime was

[01:35] Japan's most legendary Hitman to ever

[01:36] exist now he's a middle-aged fat man who

[01:39] runs a convenience store so unfortunate

[01:41] he is wrote back into the world of

[01:43] hitman's um when some of his old

[01:45] acquaintances and enemies come back and

[01:47] kind of rope him out of it so it's a

[01:49] super cool series it's a very simple

[01:51] series basically a battle shown in um

[01:54] not even a battle shown in just a battle

[01:55] manga where this is actually the main

[01:57] character and him and Sakamoto go on

[01:59] these Ventures together and fight the

[02:01] enemy at hand um it's super cool because

[02:03] the art and choreography is almost the

[02:05] art and choreography might be the best

[02:07] choreography fights in manga that I've

[02:09] read the choreography is ridiculous the

[02:10] art is super good too and clean to read

[02:12] yeah so Sakamoto days has some of the

[02:14] coolest covers as of now I would say

[02:17] like some of these covers are ridiculous

[02:19] they are probably untouched in the manga

[02:21] scene if we're being honest with

[02:22] ourselves like these covers are

[02:24] absolutely ridiculous and the spines

[02:26] look super good as well in Sakamoto days

[02:28] so definitely check out Sakamoto days

[02:29] that's my number five recommendation

[02:31] let's jump into the number four number

[02:32] four is going to Kaiju number eight I

[02:35] don't know if you guessed it you

[02:36] probably could have Kaiju number eight

[02:37] is a great beginner manga because of how

[02:39] simple the story is and how clean the

[02:40] art is the art in this might be easier

[02:42] to read especially in fight scenes than

[02:43] Sakamoto days but the art in this is

[02:45] super easy and clean to read the covers

[02:47] are awesome and super colorful and

[02:49] vibrant the spines look amazing on the

[02:51] Shelf like amazing the colors are crazy

[02:53] overall gist of Kaiju number eight is

[02:55] Japan is overruled with monsters called

[02:57] Kaiju and there's a special forces team

[02:59] that has put together to fight these

[03:00] Kaiju off and keep them keep people out

[03:02] of Harm's Way when Kafka the main

[03:04] character is enrolled into this Special

[03:06] Forces Unit and then they go on a

[03:08] cleanup type of mission he is infected

[03:10] with a special Kaiju something um I

[03:13] don't want to spoil too much and then he

[03:15] becomes half Kaiju half human he is has

[03:18] crazy abilities um he can turn into a

[03:20] Kaiju and fight them so it kind of

[03:22] follows him there are crazy characters

[03:23] in this super cool characters as well

[03:25] the story isn't anything Earth

[03:27] shattering but it's fun it's engaging

[03:29] and it's easy to read and that's what

[03:30] we're here for as a beginner so they're

[03:32] cheap they're like $10 a book so and

[03:34] there's 10 of them so like 100 bucks for

[03:35] all of them it is ongoing but um yeah

[03:37] look at some of these covers the colors

[03:39] on these are so I don't even know if the

[03:41] camera does them Justice that's kij

[03:43] number eight you need to be reading KY

[03:44] number eight as a beginner baby let's

[03:46] get into the number three

[03:47] recommendations we're going to switch it

[03:48] up a little bit all righty my third

[03:49] recommendation recommendation for you

[03:51] guys is going to be Tokyo Ghoul and

[03:53] Tokyo gou re obviously pretty much knows

[03:55] what this is the anime did not do it

[03:57] justice at all so Tokyo Ghoul has to be

[03:59] on this list I know some people might be

[04:00] like oh it's too deep for beginners it's

[04:02] too dark I think but I don't want to

[04:03] give you guys all bunch of Basics shown

[04:05] in New Gen obviously some of them are

[04:06] really good to get into to start getting

[04:07] into manga but I think Tokyo Ghoul this

[04:09] was the first like full series I ever

[04:11] read and it was awesome this is probably

[04:13] one of the most well-written and unique

[04:15] sanss I've ever read it's super dark but

[04:18] also easy to read so I haven't had I

[04:20] didn't have any issues depicting what

[04:21] was actually going on in the panels

[04:22] whereas some other mangas who do Dark

[04:24] Art they make it really kind of blend

[04:26] together and it gets hard Tokyo Ghoul

[04:27] does has a good way of not doing that

[04:29] but the basic gist is you have the main

[04:31] character Ken kaneki who is a young

[04:34] innocent boy who loves reading books and

[04:36] he goes to his favorite coffee shop

[04:37] every day and he meets this girl named

[04:39] Rise um they start hanging out they

[04:41] start talking books she's super into

[04:42] books he finds out she's a ghoul and she

[04:44] tries to eat him and kill him and then

[04:45] she ends up dying she ends up dying and

[04:47] he is barely half alive after being

[04:49] attacked by her her organs are

[04:51] transplanted into him and now he is half

[04:53] cool and half human and now he goes

[04:55] through these struggles of trying to fit

[04:57] into Both Worlds and he does not do good

[04:59] because

[05:00] to be a ghoul you can't eat food you

[05:02] have to eat humans and he's a little kid

[05:03] who was human so eating humans for him

[05:05] is not really on the table and is very

[05:07] traumatizing so he doesn't really know

[05:09] he starts going insane little spoiler he

[05:11] eventually does crash out completely and

[05:13] become super op and literally insane

[05:15] like mentally insane so Tokyo Ghoul is a

[05:17] crazy like tragic hero story that you

[05:19] should be reading if you're into manga

[05:20] this is for an older audience so if you

[05:23] are young like 10 12 I don't know if

[05:25] you're watching this if you're 10 but I

[05:26] wouldn't recommend this but if you are

[05:28] 16 plus I would say this is great story

[05:30] that you'll understand the themes enough

[05:31] being old enough so definitely check

[05:33] this out again the covers

[05:35] are um super cool like I said the covers

[05:38] of this are are super cool so that fits

[05:39] into the category also it's super cheap

[05:41] you can get both box sets I think box

[05:43] set one of Tokyo Ghoul is like 100 110

[05:46] bucks box set two is like 160 so you're

[05:48] getting this whole series of 30 volumes

[05:49] for like 200 bucks or something 250

[05:51] bucks so definitely fits that and it um

[05:54] has cool spines the spines all line up

[05:56] and they are super clean so you need to

[05:57] check out Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo goul if

[06:00] you're a beginner um but yeah let's get

[06:01] to the next righty the number two

[06:03] recommendation is here and that is jujuu

[06:06] kaisen a lot of you might be screaming

[06:07] right now ju sucks not even Good Ju is

[06:11] not even Good Ju is the worst of dark

[06:12] tra shut it Chumps it's my

[06:14] recommendation list and ju ka's number

[06:16] two I recommend this to almost all my

[06:18] friends who are just getting into manga

[06:19] because I think it's a super good entry

[06:21] way that's super fun and engaging but

[06:22] also not super deep jjk is again another

[06:25] kind of simple story it is about follows

[06:27] a kid named Yuji itadori who is a high

[06:29] Schooler in a world where Japan is

[06:31] overrun with cursed Spirits only people

[06:33] with cursed energy can see and fend off

[06:36] the only way a normal person can see

[06:38] cursed Spirits is in a life or death

[06:40] situation which Yugi is put into and he

[06:42] ends up consuming a cursed object that

[06:44] he was chasing for his Ghost Hunter club

[06:46] that is of sua the main the main

[06:48] antagonist in this story he then has sua

[06:50] as part of him inside of him he is

[06:52] luckily a super strong like superum

[06:55] strong kind of person who is able to

[06:56] fend him off internally and control his

[06:59] own body still so it he then after now

[07:02] acquiring this cursed energy and being

[07:03] able to fight cursed Spirit the magic

[07:05] Technical College which he trains under

[07:07] Satur Gojo probably the coolest

[07:09] character in manga I don't know maybe

[07:11] not he's so cool though and I love him

[07:13] any character with white hair you know

[07:14] is going to be cool but yeah it's a

[07:16] super cool series it's of the dark Trio

[07:17] so it is Shonen but it is a little bit

[07:19] of a darker take on Shonen which is cool

[07:21] so you need to check this out the Art's

[07:22] great the characters are great the

[07:23] covers are super cool as well this

[07:25] Volume 14 is actually one of my favorite

[07:27] covers in my collection but yeah that is

[07:29] um that is going to be my second

[07:31] recommendation juuk kais and let's get

[07:33] on to my last recommendation which a lot

[07:34] of you probably haven't even heard about

[07:36] so I'm excited to recommend it a lot of

[07:37] you might be pissed at I'm recommending

[07:39] this cuz you're like oh it should be

[07:40] bleach or one piece no one this is my

[07:42] list two I want to put you guys on to

[07:44] some heat and that heat and my

[07:46] number one recommendation is Alice and

[07:47] Borderland Alice and Borderland is one

[07:49] of my favorite mangas probably in my top

[07:51] three just because of how awesome the

[07:53] story is you're going to read a lot of

[07:54] manga in your journey that you're

[07:56] starting and a lot of it's going to seem

[07:57] kind of similar definitely going to be

[07:58] some different point points and

[07:59] abilities and Power Systems but it's

[08:01] kind of going to be a little bit similar

[08:03] Alice and Borderland everything's here

[08:04] Alice and borderland's here the story is

[08:06] of like nothing you've read before

[08:07] especially since you're a beginner but

[08:09] it's like nothing you'll read again so

[08:10] you'll read this and you won't read

[08:12] another Series be like oh it's kind of

[08:13] the same gist but Alison Borderland is

[08:15] going to be San so it is going to be

[08:17] geared a little bit towards more adults

[08:19] um it does have darker themes in it but

[08:21] it follows um arisu I think that's how

[08:23] you pronounce it I don't know and he is

[08:25] a um kind of lost teenager who doesn't

[08:29] really where he's going in life and what

[08:30] to do with life and he's kind of over it

[08:32] he then gets transported to like a

[08:33] parallel world a parallel world that is

[08:35] almost in the future and it's run down

[08:37] and there's nobody there him and his

[08:38] friends are transported there he finds

[08:40] that the only way to survive in this

[08:41] world is to play Death game with the

[08:43] other players in this parallel world so

[08:45] he then goes through all of these

[08:46] different games trying to survive if you

[08:48] don't play the games you die if you play

[08:50] the games and lose you die the only way

[08:51] to win and survive in this world is

[08:53] playing these games and trust me Guys

[08:55] these games are so cool they're so

[08:57] thought out and well written that

[08:58] they're each everyone is so engaging and

[09:00] fun to read that you're going to love

[09:02] every single one and you're going to

[09:03] wish there was more games to read

[09:05] definitely check out aliceon Borderland

[09:07] it is also cheap I think there's nine

[09:09] volumes the covers are super cool and

[09:11] they're also probably the best quality

[09:13] um omnibuses I've ever read these are

[09:15] two in one volumes also the spines all

[09:17] linked together and form a city when put

[09:20] together which is super cool I'll guess

[09:21] in Boll of that but um yeah Alison

[09:23] Borderland is awesome there is the live

[09:25] action on Netflix but it's not as good

[09:27] as the manga trust me I've watched both

[09:29] watched it and I read this so you need

[09:31] to check out Alison Borderland if you're

[09:33] a beginner because one I'm recommending

[09:35] it and I'm awesome two it's super good

[09:36] and super fun and it's going to be like

[09:38] nothing you've read so far I promise so

[09:40] check out Alison Borderland as my number

[09:41] one recommendation but yeah that is my

[09:43] list for you beginners I hope you

[09:45] enjoyed all of them they're all going to

[09:46] be great reads for you they're all going

[09:47] to be easy cheap engaging and easy to

[09:50] find and they're going to look good on

[09:51] your shelves so I hope you enjoyed if

[09:53] you did like follow or if you did like
