I'm in dire need of some new entertainment to read and I've been on a comic kick recently. I've read some manga and I'd like to get some more, rather than just stumble into things once in a while.

I think I enjoy action manga, though I get bored with the fights pretty quick. I'm interested in every genre I suppose, as long as it's interesting. I'll list what I've read and enjoyed here, moreso you'll have an idea of what I'd be into, not to tie me down to that genre. Really I'd love to broaden my horizon, but this is slop I'm looking for - easy reading.

Fullmetal Alchemist
Mieruko
Berserk
Detective Conan
One Piece (though since dressrosa I've not been as into it. Mainly reading out of habit these days)
Early Naruto (In general I feel like Shonen start off with an interesting premise and then it does a timeskip and it becomes all about power levels. I don't understand why they do that.)
Yu-Gi-Oh!
Shaman King
Junji Itos stuff
Dragon Ball (should have stopped after the cell games tbh)
Delicious in Dungeon
Death note
solo levelling.

And recently I read solo leveling which was some nice enough isekai slop. I wouldn't mind getting a good isekai recommended.
I dislike fanservice though, so that eliminates all isekai more or less.

Kinda late to the party, but the new chapter of Radiant just dropped and I've been pushing that one hard for a while here, I think it's perfectly suited to any Hexbear who enjoys manga. It's actually French, and the story so far has been pretty amazing, with plenty of charismatic characters with such lovely nuance and runs the gamut tackling themes of marginalization, oppressive politics and class relations, even spirituality and environmentalism.

Seth is an apprentice sorcerer from the Pompo Hills. Like all sorcerers, he's an "infected", one of the few people having survived an encounter with a Nemesis, those creatures falling from the sky and destroying everything around them. Being immune to them, Seth wants to become a Hunter and fight the Nemesis. But what Seth really wants is to find the source of all Nemesis, the Radiant. Helped by his fellow sorcerers, he will seek the Radiant, under the harsh scrutiny of the Inquisition…

The sell is kinda tropey, but I swear it actually gets really good.
