Gantz, written and illustrated by Hiroya Oku, is one of the most famous and popular manga especially among adults.

While many popular manga are adapted into anime and sometimes the anime becomes more beloved, Gantz was indeed animated in 2004. However, many fans believe that the true charm of the series lies in the manga. After being fatally injured, Kei Kurono and Masaru Kato find themselves in a mysterious room with an enigmatic black orb called Gantz. Forced into deadly games, participants must hunt down aliens hiding in the human world. As they struggle for survival, they grapple with morality, death, and the unknown.

Cross Game is a moving drama that is heartfelt and true, yet in the brilliant hands of manga artist Mitsuru Adachi, delightfully flows with a light and amusing touch. The series centers around a boy named Ko, the family of four sisters who live down the street and the game of baseball. This poignant coming-of-age will change your perception of what shonen-manga can be.
