You can read Necromancer
Reccommended to me by our very own "Lovely"Kyo
It's about a dude who runs a shop about ressurecting dead people at a cost. It's short good read and I also reccommend you read it.

Okay, I'll read it because it's the shortest one recommended so far and it'll give us something to talk about.

And if you end up liking Necromancer, I recommend watching XXX Holic, cause it gave me a similar vibe.
Granted it's an anime not a manga, but still...

I read through the first volume of Necromancer but I'm not really liking it. Every chapter is it's own little story about a group of people who get screwed over by the necromancer, but I don't find any of those stories interesting. Then there's the main story arc about the detective who wants to bust the necromancer, but it always takes a backseat to everything else and when the detective does show up she never really does anything to progress that story arc. Instead she finds out the story behind those people and why they rely on the necromancer who ends up ruining their lives, but then when the next group of people comes along she doesn't even try to stop them. "Go ahead and let the necromancer do his thing that historically always ruins people's lives. Meanwhile I'll just be watching for something that is explicitly illegal so that I can try to bust him." Honestly I kinda like the main idea behind the manga. It's almost like every chapter is it's own short story. It's just that none of the stories are good.

I might continue just because it's so short but I don't think I'm gonna enjoy it.

I finally read Onani Master Kurosawa (Masturbation Master Kurosawa)
And my god, it was beautiful..
The story was, the art is kinda "meh"

See, I told you I have great taste.

Now read the other ones I recommended.

I would not be able to take anything seriously called "Masturbation Master Kurosawa"

Also Haku, be sure to read the translated epilogue here: Part 1 - Part 2

Then call it "Onani Master Kurosawa".

And yes, the name is dumb, but it's still a really good story. And hey, at least it's not called "Catcher in the Toilet" which is what they called the novelization of the story. I guess the author sucks at coming up with titles, but what would you call a story about a dude that loves to masturbate in women's washrooms?

I'm currently reading this one manga called "Bitter Virgin"
I dunno how to give a plot synopsis since the big shocker is at the end of the first chapter.
But I will say that shit gets real at the church.

I'm pretty sure the Mangafox summary spoils that big shocker.

But this manga is pretty short so I might actually read it.

Well you're not gonna hear it from me
I want everyone to have as big a "WTF" as I did when they read it.

I'm surprised you're not desensitized to that stuff after all the crazy manga you read.

Anyway, when you finish reading it let me know if you recommend it or not.

Hakudamashi

I recommend it
But I must mention that the ending is pretty weak.
