The 40k part of /tg/ reimagined as a manga. And yes that is the spiritual liege in the top left.

Manga are like comics, except Japanese, and read from right to left. Alongside anime, manga are one of the stereotypical weeaboo's favourite things. It is very common for popular manga series to receive animated adaptations and vice versa, prompting endless debate amongst fans about which version is better. Manga are sometimes referred to as mangos by both detractors and fans.

Notable and/or /tg/ Related Manga

  • One piece - Your average retarded shounen characters. But Whitebeard makes up for everything with his sheer manliness and the fact that he's Smashfucker. No, seriously, look the series. That guy seemed to have a 2+/2++ and a 2+FNP and a 3+ IWND. Despite the cheerful and colorful atmosphere this manga presents to its reader, it shares the same grimdark element with 40k. A corrupt government called W.G.(world government) is known for obliterate an island for treason, erase/revise documented history and sending CP9(cipher pol 9), assassins with super martial art technique About half the monarchs represented are sociopathic assholes, and the cake is taken by the Sichibukai, two of which are know to led dictatorial regimes, and most of them being overall an unbalancing force for world stability. Admirals that has the power to shit volcano fist, shoot light laser and freeze the fucking ocean in half to deal with pirates.
  • Fullmetal Alchemist - An alchemist embarks on a quest to find the Philosopher's Stone, an artifact that he believes can recover his brother's body and his own missing limbs. Really, how could you not have heard of this?
  • Berserk - GUTS HUEG
  • Blame! - Silent cyberapocalypse goodness
  • Coppelion - In 2036 AD, Tokyo has turned into wasteland after a nuclear reactor explosion. Coppelion, a group of genetically engineered girls in school uniform has to find a way to restore Japan and fighting off a rebellious faction of Death Korps of Krieg. It's basically the same thing happened on Krieg, but in Japan.
  • Demon Detective Neuro - Tzeentch's early days before the grimdark future.
  • Fist of the North Star - Manly enough to cause you to grow a penis if you don't already have one, or to cause your penis to grow a penis if you do.
  • Franken Fran - "Dude...what?!" Makes you think you're stoned, even if you're not. Also squick. (Note: you cannot turn these into good campfire stories no matter how hard you try.)
  • Gunnm - Dystopian futuristic cyberpunk martial arts character piece about cyborgs, all drawn beautifully. Also very nineties.
  • JoJo's Bizzare Adventure - A story about supernatural power fighting spirits and the same bizarre shit happen in the warp. It's notably have male man with Kenshiro type body doing fabulous pose and being overall, godamn manly as hell. Gayer than Freddie Mercury and at least as badass. This manga is also where the WRRRYYY meme came from, but the only differences is a steamroller.
  • King of RPGs - American "manga" about many things /tg/. Suspend some disbelief, but much better than it sounds.
  • Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou - We... we don't like to talk about this one.
  • Ookami no Kuchi: Wolfsmund - A true grimdark tale of a sadistic creed set in 14th century of Europe (Switzerland). It has violence, sex and basically everything Berserk has minus the fantasy elements. Like Warhammer, it has no happy ending.
  • Quick Start!! - Affectionately called "My Little Neckbeard", this series is about a group of teenage girls traveling through the world of traditional gaming.
  • Wizard's Soul - More or less centered around a fictional cardgame (that is based off Magic: the Gathering).
  • Uzumaki - Goddamncreepyasfuck supernatural/cosmic horror story about spirals. Author was originally in dentistry, which explains a lot.
  • Vinland Saga - One of Berserk's spiritual successors, though more rooted in reality. This one is about historical vikings.
  • Yotsuba& - A manga where the main character is the mascot of 4chan.
  • Dungeon Meshi - A relative newcomer to the scene of /tg/-related manga, this delightful little series chronicles the escapades of a small adventuring party exploring a dungeon and feeding off the monsters within. That's right, they, with the help of a mysterious dorf, butcher, cook, and eat the monsters.

The portion of /tg/ that doesn't immediately shout "weeaboo!" whenever anything remotely Asian is mentioned generally agrees that Berserk (at least, early Berserk) and Blame! are very good reads. Although Blame! might be more accurately described as a "look" since it has very little dialogue.

If any of you have noticed a disproportionate number of notable titles over at the /tg/-Approved anime page, this comes from two main factors. First, the number of good manga that don't have an anime adaptation or overshadow their anime adaptation is very small these days. Usually this restricts "manga-only" stories to older manga or quirky manga. The second reason is simply a culture issue: few /tg/ neckbreards are also /a/ or /jp/ enough to know and recommend good, /tg/-related manga.
