    Meta-narrative manga recs

    I'm in the mood for any "meta"-sort of manga you might have come across. From stuff with a lot of surreal, panelling jokes, stories revolving around odd visual gimmicks or even just something with a plot about characters knowing they're in a story and how they react to it. Doesn't have to be...

    Subversions and twists

    While subversion of overused plot elements, characters and cliches for the sake of it isn't necessarily good writing, I always find it to be at least pleasantly surprising. What are some of your favorite or notable spins in manga on common archetypes and plot points?

    Unpopular opinions

    Vent here about your peculiar manga-related issues very few people seem to feel the same way about. Feel like the only sane man in a mad, mad world with awful taste (at least as far as manga are concerned)! I'll start: I really despise what I refer to as "drama-porn" manga. You know the kind...
