junk's manga / #friendship(18)

9/10 this cyberpunk-esque series takes place in a dystopian world where a new kind of super-powered shinobi has taken over. Tokyo Shinobi Squad features beautiful art, unique character designs, and heartwarming tales of friendship in a struggling world. anyone who enjoys typical shounen style action mangas and sci-fi would love this series. cw: guns, violence

10/10 i couldnt give this series higher praise - it is truly a masterpiece and holds the throne for my all-time favourite manga. a must-read not just artists & creatives but for anybody with dreams and aspirations, Blue Period is passionate, inspirational, and impactful enough to make me regularly break down in tears while reading; it’s not that the content itself is particularly sad, but the phenomenal writing and captivating imagery makes even the trivial struggles of day-to-day life so much more relatable and moving. cw: contains some heavy topics such as mental health, eating disorders, gender identity & sexuality etc.

10/10 Chainsaw Man is probably the best shounen action manga of its generation. The series has a completely unique plot that comes alive with the captivating art, fantastic and gory action scenes, ingenious world-building, chaotic but brilliantly planned storyline, hilarious writing, and impactful character development that takes the usual shallow friendships of shounen manga to a new and much deeper level. cw: guns, violence, gore, death/murder

️ 9.5/10 ️ fantastic webtoon about street bike racing with fabulous character design & development. definitely a must-read. although i’m usually not a fan of romance in shounen action comics, the romance in this series is cute and realistic and adds a lot to the character development and plot.
