Ok so i read this at my library with i was a teen. Like 15 years ago but i wonder whatmanga it was for a long time. Ok so the main character was intersex (boy and girl) but he live as a boy , then he when in to a dream world and he was more female. I dont know if anyone know what manga this is. I remember it being really odd and there were other people in the dream world
maybe this one? no sure but it's been out since 2013

No its not but i does look interesting so thank you :smile: its bit older Id say hummm...2008 is when i think i read it and it was at the library so probably a bit older still. I remember it starting at school then going in to a dream world and his was wearing a girl uniform because it body was more girl identifying. I was about going to inner turmoil his was him being intersex other characters had there own problems
maybe you can try looking through this tag

If you were trying to get someone in to manga or at least acknowledge it as "real" reading, do you guys have any ideas?
Ask for their fav story, find something manga equivalent that's kinda similar, introduce it to them, and ask for their opinion later
Make it a thing like "Read this and I won't ask you to read manga ever again or sum"
Ofc you could just rec something that has their fav genres, good art, good plot etc.
What genre are they usually into?
depends on their preferred genre... maybe you bait them with the anime first? manga won't be that easy to get into if they don't like it (it may be confusing—complicated even— for first timers)
I used to not like mangas before but I have a friend of mine who's got this collection of doraemon mangas(a perfect past time huhu), then they introduced me to anime— that stopped at the first season, and you got no choice but to read the manga if you wanna know how it endssss.
so yeah, if they aren't into bl, maybe shoujo or shounen, or shoujo that appeals to both, like 'wotakoi' or 'kaguya-sama: love is war' or 'horimiya'
Id js recommend my fav of all time lol
I would avoid recommending romance focused mangas because ofc they won’t take it seriously.
i usually read psychological so id say that genre or action/thriller
Example like :

Alice in borderland is manga that was adapted as a series on netflix. It’s about a man named Arisu who was suddenly teleported to the borderland along with his friends, a land between life and death. He has to participate in games so he’d get to live for a few more days (…)

For someone who's into history. Its main focus is on the sanson family who at that time were the executioners, pre to post the French Revolution. it's not entirely historically accurate though most characters were based on real people/historical figures.
You see where im going? You kind of have to explain and make it sounds interesting. Try to find a manga that links to their interests. Like football, painting, games etc
....um is my boss at that library i work at and im trying to get manga in the library there none now so i want to . She is Christian like 70 and narrow minded...so i dont think ill get them to read anything but i want tittle that they cant say isn't a really story with depth or just smut any nudy would be smut spice and wolf would be smut to her and it has a great story
Slice of life and probably tearjerker should be the way to go for her

Ok this is a weird manga and i read it id say....5,6,7 years ago. But this guy goes to an island with a group of people and everyone but him and one girl gets murdered. She i think was from the island to begin with she may or may not know that though. But outsider are not aloud. But there a bunch of fu**ed up stuff that happens. Its a black and with manga if that helps. But is like a secret village i didnt finish it but i have tried to find it agin and i dont know what it is. Ohh they people are reincarnated. I remember that. But it was really weird messed up manga (not as bad as some but messed up not the less)
Thank you for any help you can give me.
Yess i rmr, it was some wack ass stuff with a lot of Gore rt???
Yes, and like there fu**ed up socal system
Suicide island? Sorry if its not
Not they were murdered and dont be sorry you tried to help. : smile: thank you
Not all details match, but some sound similar to Sonny Boy.
Kichikujima maybe.
No not this. And i know but i read it like 7-ish ago so its a little fuzzy...sorry but that you for trying to help
No....umm less gory then that, not eating people or mask or wearing animal head....
But thank you for trying to help
Not sure if it’s this one, because I also read it years ago and didn’t finish, but it’s quite good and similar(?) to what you’re looking for so you might like it even if it’s not the one :)) https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/summer_time_render/
No this isn't it buuuuuuutttt it does look interesting so thank you :smile: so ill definitely be reading it
In the one I'm looking for they are reborn as babies not goes back in time if that helps.
Hi i want to find some good manga for my public library. Please keep in mind my boss is a Christian woman and doesn't even think that manga is really reading and im trying to get my foot in the door with books she isn't going to give a huf about.
Right now im going with is
Adult and Teens:
Magas of the Library
Children of the Whale
And for kids:
+Anime
New Additions:
Blue Period
Dinosaurs Sanctuary
So not nudity other wise spice and wolf would have been in there. I have other idea but those are my first chooses
Thank you for your help
For general audiences
Fullmetal Alchemist (teen)
Naruto (can be kids and teen)
Bleach (though that can be a little dark)
I know, I was all trying for different tittle. I do like all those *smile*
But those can be a little sexy too so im trying to stay about from that. After i get some in I can be like well those a popular so we should get these too.
We are a suuuuuppopeeer small library.
Thank you for your answer
...least thing i need is for her to flip thought it and run in the Naruto sexy jutsu when im just trying to get her to even get a few. We have zero right now....
I recommend sports, shounen, seinen, or shoujo for public readingg.
For seinen try Blue Period (about art)
Delicious Dungeon, maybe.
(Whoa… did not expect to randomly see the name “tokidoki” after all these years)
Ah, yes, that could be a problem. Fullmetal is less racy, but the other two could be problematic
Still lurking here. I am not on hear often, these days, I have read all the ones 8mwanted to … hahaha.
Shounen sports mangas or shoujo mangas might be your best bet. Most don’t have nudity
Thank you for this one, I start reading it and its a great choose! It even teaches you about art in some places which is just a great bonus! That's one of the reasons I picked Magas of the Library, it has educational bits in it. I wanted to also have The Isekai doctor for the some reason they're both have great story lines as well as educational parts. But unfortunately The Isekai doctor isn't out in English yet.... I kinda of run in to that problem a few times. Like with Arte and Isekai Yururi Kikou: Kosodateshinagara Boukensha Shimasu which were two I really really wanted to add to the list.
Yeah I agree *smile*
Lucky!!!! It be so awesome to be about to say that....though several manga i really aren't in english yet sooooooooo that dont help and very very small personal budget.
(づ￣ ³￣)づ
New Additions to the list so far
Blue Period
Dinosaurs Sanctuary
Yesss educational mangas are quite special since you kinda forget your even learning. I like how you can read it in public with no shame too lmao. Also, love arte, been so long since I've read that! （/TДT)/
If you want, I have other recs
Gakuen Babysitter (cutesy)
Kono oto tomare (actually haven't read this one but the art and reviews are awesome)
Chihayafuru (about cards with romance)
Heaven's Design Team (kinda sacrilegious but fun educational stuff on animals)
For like sports you should have “Blue Lock” it’s about soccer
“Spy family” is very family oriented with small mentions of war and it’s funny
What is the best yuri manga that is classic black and white manga, no manhwa. Thank you
my very first manga ive read 15 years ago and the one that made me love yuri. this is like the mother of yuri mangas lol xD
