I am getting back into reading manga, and I'm trying to remember titles my friends and I would have read.
So, manga that was a HIT around 2003. I remember Hellsing, Cardcaptor Sakura, Naruto, Deathnote, Mars, some Yaoi I definitely don't remember the names of. IF you happen to remember some titles or know popular titles from any time in the early 2000's, good or bad, Drop 'em here, I'm going down memory lane, lol. Which ones do you remember if you were reading manga at that time? Thanks!

Full Metal Alchemist should be a good fit
I just watched whatever was on kid's channel back then. I started with Manga pretty late.
It's a good question to ask chatgpt
Stuff like HxH, Ranma, Love Hina, One Piece was always very popular around that time
Air Gear too

early 2000?

hmm... definitely Shaman King,
around the time I read Eva,
Rave,
I think Hikaru no Go,
Shonen stuffs like Rekka and MAR (is that what you mean by Mars? the Hammer guy early days isekai?)
around the time I got hooked in YuGiOh,
20th Century boys,
that was also around the time I was collecting most Adachi Mitsuru's manga,
the new Tekken Chinmi,
Black Cat
Samurai Deeper Kyo
Happy World is definitely for my teenage days

yeah.. I think that's all the good stuff I can remember in those days

Oh wow Hikaru no Go and YuGiOh, I also totally forgot about them until this second. The others are ringing a bell i'll have to search. I don't think it was MAR, I thought I remembered a book called Mars with a young painter who falls in love with a motorcycle racer after she paints his portrait, but I'm not sure.
Thanks!

hoo... I don't know that one
the only motorcycle racer manga I read around those times was Baribari Densetsu


my mom's friend gifted me one volume of it for my birthday because it had a motorbike on the cover,
and... uh... turns out there's a sexual assault scene in it there made my prepubescence mind go wild, suffice to say
...

so I bought the rest of the available volumes

Woah, around that year i remember i read like law of ueki, houshin engi, inuyasha, yaiba, yureka, 1/2 prince, western shotgun, ai kora, angyo onshi, around that time also sora no otoshimono, sekirei, yumekui merry, witch hunter, soul eater, godhand teru, all the stuff undeed say.

Mystery stuff like Q.E.D, also C.M.B (though this one come out later), spiral suiri no kizuna.

Some lesser known title like tena on s string, masterschool of olympus (same author as yureka), artist acro, and magic peddler roma.

Kinda got into sport manga from slam dunk, eyeshield 21, and mr fullswing (even bought physical copy).
