It's a matter of principle. There are many people who are fine with a story, no matter the content inside so long as it is coherent and interesting. Others don't have the stomach for a bunch of children turned fairy kill each other. They might not be in the right mindset to read the story without it severely effecting them. I was totally fine with berserk and Hellsing at 12, 13. I still, over a decade later can't read something like oyasumi punpun. It is too depressing and puts me in an awful place.
I'll keep it a grip with you. Some more fucked shit is pretty close, but once you get passed that it's only kinda deplorable. But then I mean *SHEESH* watch out, cause it's fucked. Well. Nvm. Just read it. Buy the manga lmao

I’ve watched Fullmetal Alchemist just a couple of years ago, and honestly, I have to disagree completely. Fullmetal isn’t a series that’s only appreciated through the eyes the nostalgia, it’s very unique story with interesting concepts and great characters. The character writing specifically is the major highlight of the entire series, alongside the interesting concepts and it’s creative use of alchemy. It’s a must watch series for any anime fan, I know it’s not for everyone, but that goes for any series out there, it’s still for me one of the top 10 best shonen.
@@seanhickey1999 Even though I think FMAB is top tier but there are some shonen I would put above FMAB like HxH,One piece,Jojo(till part 5 it's shonen), if you disagree that's completely fine, it's my opinion.
@@anirudhankumble3586 same lol. Whilst the manga for Gintama is very good and funny, I will say that Gintama itself is something that is better in anime. Theres just a lot of things like the voice acting, timing of jokes, etc. that you can only fully grasp w the anime version
You got me reading Berserk because the way you talk about it. I can tell you really love the series. I watched multiple Berserk videos by you. My favorite type of videos from is Berserk. I watched the Golden Age movies and read the manga from there. Finishing the eclipse traumatized me, I didn’t touch Berserk for a week. I watched one of your videos on Berserk again then I read the manga. Currently I’m on chapter 265.

Well. Ordered Berserk Deluxe edition, and now i found there are little sales for all the chapters, so i gathered some of my last pocket money, to order volume 2 and 3. I have no money for my home gym equipment i wanted to buy for some time, but it is a sacrifice i am definitely willing to make and know for 100% i will NEVER regret it. Berserk is awesome. I want to get my 14yo brother into it too, but i think i should wait some time. Love your videos, they are awesome, and made me appreciate good literature, thank you
Not joking but u really were the reason I got back to berserk I knew the story until the eclipse and I swear the "rest" of the manga gets so much better
@Itachi Is superior to you That does not make him kind. Or did half the fanbase forget the fact that Itachi was the reason Sasuke went off the deep end?
It's just crazy that Vinland Saga is not even in this list like really wtf. It deserves to be in top 3 imo and if not top 3 then top 5 for sure without a doubt. It's a MASTERPIECE
To give more clarification about the vagabond hiatus: Inoue started REAL while vagabond was still in its earlier days. Over the years, his focus shifted away from vagabond so now he's primarily focused on REAL (which is also why vagabond has had no new chapters for the past 6 years). REAL is still ongoing and new chapters are relased quarterly (one new chapter every 3 months).

Berserk was the first manga where I realised that even it would have a good/great anime adaptation, it wouldn't give back the PURE AMAZINGNESS of the artwork. Like it's literally cannot be made, at least that's my opinion, although I do say, that the 1997 version got me into the story and hearing about the "2016/2017 version" I decided zo start reading the manga, probably my first manga reading mind you..... And holy shit, even though Iiked the anime version, a LOT of things were cut, including Rickert (in the anime it wasn't clear what happened with Him-I hope he's a boy xD) and the manga's artstyle is a Sight to behold, the amount of detail it has is incredible!

It's so sad .........We never thought we would lose Miura now. R.I.P Miura and let's hope someone with a good heart and respect for his work ends his masterpiece. I know we will never truly know how Miura wanted to end it but I hope that the people that helped him these years complete at least his idea on the ending of Berserk. Heartbreaking ................
I started reading Blame! thanks to your review and also the video about the "father of chainsaw man", cause I've loved chainsaw man so much. Guess is time to give Berserk a shot, everytime you talk about it is so inspiring (cause everytime I wanna start it I take a look at the length and so I keep dropping it lol) Keep up with this!
Well Masked man, I watched the Golden Age arc Movies of berserk, then the 97 series loved it! Started watching you and am almost done with the manga so far. Honestly it's one of my favorite stories I've ever read and I'm not even done yet! Thank you Masked Man and thank you and rest in peace Kentaro Miura, you truly made a beautiful piece of art!!!
You got me into Berserk, but honestly after the golden age arc, I couldn't get back into it. I think it's a good series, but it was just a bit slow. I plan on going back but I'm hesitant.
I'm in the conviction arcs now, in like the 3rd part. I think lost children was boring, after that its kind of okay. I heard falcon millenium arc is good so I'm holding on til then.
Always planned and always wanted to read berserk cause of Twitter and the hype and I wanted to be a part of the convo but after watching some of ur berserk videos and top list videos that what finally pushed me to reading to and tbh it was kinda hard to read the first arc but I pushed thur and then I got to the second and It was way easier and more enjoyable and then got to the convention arc and I couldn’t stop reading it till caught up, so thank you a lot and I love the series now
I know I'm late, but you did get me into Berserk. I'm not completely caught up yet, I'm like roughly 300 chapters in, and I'm absolutely loving it. It's my second favorite manga series of all time Right behind One Piece :)
Berserk is the only manga (or anime) to make me openly weep, not just tear up. That shit hits you in the chest, and I'm not just talking about the eclipse. But real shit that story is why I'm typing this comment. Found that story at the most critical point in my life so far. Big big blessings to my boy Susumu, even BIGGER blessings to my nigga Kentaro.
Should do a video on Tetsuo Haras work. One of the greatest artists imo. Edit: One piece is top ten material for sure but yeah the fan base can be a bit much at times.
you were one of the ones that got me in this series, and I started a week ago and now I am in volume 12 where the fucking eclipse is happenig. It is all in my veins and definitely can't see a reason to stop reading this .😁 p.s: I can't wait to watch those psychological jungian analysis video. thank you 😊
I felt the FMAB one, I'm almost dropping it because I can't keep my focus on it BUT, I have a rule to finish everything I start, EXCEPT RIVERDALE, so I have to finish it, I'll probably end up liking it but not gonna be on my top 10 or anything, PROBABLY
I'm 15 just finished berserk, it's my favorite piece of media to ever exist, before that it was the dark souls series. And my library has all 40 volumes and gave it to me without question even with the parental advisory sticker on it. Pretty cool
I'm gonna be honest. I always heard of Berserk and was afraid of it. I felt like I was gonna be so broken afterwards, but I kept seeing your content about it. I saw the dedication you had towards it. Your analysis of the characters, plot and story overall and alas I decided to read it. I too have just finished the eclipse and bro, I REGRET NOTHING. I thoroughly enjoyed just how well the story is. The art, my hatred for Griffith and my complete love for guts. Guts I think is such a great character. To me I think he symbolizes humanity at its purest Form not a pure human but what humanity is at its core. We all want to be righteous and strong, but there will come a eclipse or a Griffith in life and we too will become the black swords man, but guts kept going. I can say with 100% certainty that if I were to go through what guts goes through, I wouldn't even had made it to the eclipse. Which is why guts resonates with me so much. When guts cries I cry. When he smiles I smile. I genuinely feel like I'm watching a best friend go through some crap and I'm right there with him. And to hear it keeps getting better. I'm so glad I've read this. I can't wait to finish it. I'm glad you recommended this to me.👍
Nah can confirm FullMetal Alchemist is still up there especially with the recent disappointment with Attack on Titan. The recent dumpster fire that was AOT made people realize how hard it is to close a long running series and give it a cathartic end. And word of mouth is spreading. A lot of younger viewers are now watching FMA.

Thank you so much for getting me into berserk, just got caught up with it. your whole channel is basically my reading list lol, and im never disappointed with any series you recommend, got a new goat now
I'm happy to say that not only did you get me to read berserk but I got my homies and to watch and or both read it.
i found you while reading berserk, i always put you on in the background while i read
Allot of people loved FMAB back in the day! I guess not too many people love it as much anymore!
And I don’t know why lol but it is 11 years old now
Still the closest thing I've seen to a flawless story in anime/manga.
@@JayfroC I agree!!
@@JayfroC I agree!
@@JayfroC flawless yeah right ..

Berserk
Monster
Attack on titan
One piece
Full metal Alchemist
Jojo part 7
Grand blue
Kaguya sama
Haikyuu
Chainsaw man
Currently I am planning to read Vagabond , 20th century boys , Vinland saga and tokyo ghoul as of now .

TOP 5 HIGHEST RATED MANGA OF ALL TIME RIGHT NOW :

2.JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE : STEEL BALL RUN (9,27)
3.ONE PIECE (9,20)
4.VAGABOND (9,18)
5.MONSTER (9,10)
damn you havent read OPM?
@@ImHereCookin my friend this is a list i made year ago when I had just gotten into reading manga . It's irrelevant now . Also AOT is now shit
@@cnkothari604 how?
if your talking about the ending a story shouldn’t be up to an ending to decide if its good
It's so sad .........We never thought we would lose Miura now. R.I.P Miura and let's hope someone with a good heart and respect for his work ends his masterpiece. I know we will never truly know how Miura wanted to end it but I hope that the people that helped him these years complete at least his idea on the ending of Berserk. Heartbreaking ................
I started reading Blame! thanks to your review and also the video about the "father of chainsaw man", cause I've loved chainsaw man so much. Guess is time to give Berserk a shot, everytime you talk about it is so inspiring (cause everytime I wanna start it I take a look at the length and so I keep dropping it lol) Keep up with this!
you got me to watch it after the beauty of the angry charecter vid like a year ago then i wached reallife ryans analizes on each arc
Well Masked man, I watched the Golden Age arc Movies of berserk, then the 97 series loved it! Started watching you and am almost done with the manga so far. Honestly it's one of my favorite stories I've ever read and I'm not even done yet! Thank you Masked Man and thank you and rest in peace Kentaro Miura, you truly made a beautiful piece of art!!!
A slam dunk movie was confirmed for this year by the creator himself
sus
@@clanguser naah its true
You got me into Berserk, but honestly after the golden age arc, I couldn't get back into it. I think it's a good series, but it was just a bit slow. I plan on going back but I'm hesitant.
I'm in the conviction arcs now, in like the 3rd part. I think lost children was boring, after that its kind of okay. I heard falcon millenium arc is good so I'm holding on til then.
It gets more fast-paced after golden age, and imo conviction is the peak of berserk
@@KRAKSKRAKSKRAKS oh ok! I stopped like a chapter or two into conviction
Love the tekking shoutout
Yo you got me into the series
Always planned and always wanted to read berserk cause of Twitter and the hype and I wanted to be a part of the convo but after watching some of ur berserk videos and top list videos that what finally pushed me to reading to and tbh it was kinda hard to read the first arc but I pushed thur and then I got to the second and It was way easier and more enjoyable and then got to the convention arc and I couldn’t stop reading it till caught up, so thank you a lot and I love the series now
yep you got me into berserk and im really glad that i read it all , its in my top 2 btw
whats the other one?
@@griffithdidnothingwrong4788 aot
You got me into manga thanks 🙏
I know I'm late, but you did get me into Berserk. I'm not completely caught up yet, I'm like roughly 300 chapters in, and I'm absolutely loving it. It's my second favorite manga series of all time
Right behind One Piece :)
Coalition is only like halfway through Kingdom lol. And it definitely topped that Arc with it's Western Zhao Invasion Saga.
Yup i did get into berserk from your vids, but i put it on hold after the lost children arc. I'll continue later again
why did u stop? did u not like it?
Yeoo you got me into Berserk I'm 250 in the last week.
I think it's great. 8/10
You got me into the highschool musical manga
Berserk is the only manga (or anime) to make me openly weep, not just tear up. That shit hits you in the chest, and I'm not just talking about the eclipse. But real shit that story is why I'm typing this comment. Found that story at the most critical point in my life so far. Big big blessings to my boy Susumu, even BIGGER blessings to my nigga Kentaro.
Currently in the lost children arc and I had to look away several times. Good grief is it bleak
Day 5 of asking The Masked Man to watch Serial Experiments Lain, Haibane Renmei, and Texhnolyze
YES!!!
@@commirevo89 Ima kono sekai de (if you get the reference you're a legend)
@@alyazidmamoune7837 it's been almost 15 years since I watched it but is that a reference to the wired in Lain?
@@commirevo89 No it's not a reference to any of the anime above it's a reference to Monster's ending 2 type it on youtube
@@commirevo89 But damn 15 years you're an oldie
Yeah man you got me into berserk
Comedy manga is for sure subjective, IMO Gintama is my number one comedy manga
Dynamic Duo 💯💯💯
Yeah i started reading Berserk few days ago and i'm on Ecplise. Thank you for recommendation
The most wholesome part
You got me into berserk and now it's my number 2
You're not telling us your number 1, does that mean it's one piece? lol
It's my number 2 too.
@@fallenneberu3422 whats wrong with one piece😕?
@@bastardbastard4998 it's a joke because masked man has beef with OP fans.
@@fallenneberu3422😅
Should do a video on Tetsuo Haras work. One of the greatest artists imo.
Edit: One piece is top ten material for sure but yeah the fan base can be a bit much at times.
Thanks for introducing me to hells paradise,, also, try to check out suicide island
You got me to give berserk a second shot and now its in my top 3 manga 😤
you were one of the ones that got me in this series, and I started a week ago and now I am in volume 12 where the fucking eclipse is happenig. It is all in my veins and definitely can't see a reason to stop reading this .😁
p.s: I can't wait to watch those psychological jungian analysis video. thank you 😊
I felt the FMAB one, I'm almost dropping it because I can't keep my focus on it BUT, I have a rule to finish everything I start, EXCEPT RIVERDALE, so I have to finish it, I'll probably end up liking it but not gonna be on my top 10 or anything, PROBABLY
Yo asura I’ve been reading vagabond cuz of u and I binge about 50 chapters a day I’m almost caught up and wow this is just beautiful thanks man
I caught up like 2 weeks ago and it’s a masterpiece
I cought up but tbh for me personally it wasn't as good as my expectations were but the art was great
I'm 15 just finished berserk, it's my favorite piece of media to ever exist, before that it was the dark souls series. And my library has all 40 volumes and gave it to me without question even with the parental advisory sticker on it. Pretty cool
I started Berserk at 10 years old lol
I'm gonna be honest. I always heard of Berserk and was afraid of it. I felt like I was gonna be so broken afterwards, but I kept seeing your content about it. I saw the dedication you had towards it. Your analysis of the characters, plot and story overall and alas I decided to read it. I too have just finished the eclipse and bro, I REGRET NOTHING. I thoroughly enjoyed just how well the story is. The art, my hatred for Griffith and my complete love for guts. Guts I think is such a great character. To me I think he symbolizes humanity at its purest Form not a pure human but what humanity is at its core. We all want to be righteous and strong, but there will come a eclipse or a Griffith in life and we too will become the black swords man, but guts kept going. I can say with 100% certainty that if I were to go through what guts goes through, I wouldn't even had made it to the eclipse. Which is why guts resonates with me so much. When guts cries I cry. When he smiles I smile. I genuinely feel like I'm watching a best friend go through some crap and I'm right there with him. And to hear it keeps getting better. I'm so glad I've read this. I can't wait to finish it. I'm glad you recommended this to me.👍
"You can't sell Berserk to a 13 years old or 15 years old."
Me who reads Berserk at 15: _Griffith!!!_
@@takezo4165 Key word: Normal. We're not.
Nah can confirm FullMetal Alchemist is still up there especially with the recent disappointment with Attack on Titan. The recent dumpster fire that was AOT made people realize how hard it is to close a long running series and give it a cathartic end. And word of mouth is spreading. A lot of younger viewers are now watching FMA.
Ya'll need to put out more Slam Dunk videos! I need to know Masked's opinion on that last match.
You got me into akumetsu
nice job
Last time XForts covered something other than Jojo's Johnny wasn't a vegetable and avdol hadn't died for the umpteenth time
