I`m a hardcore animefan and recently I`ve started reading some manga too. Akira, Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind and Berserk is the ones I`ve read so far. Akira was great, Nausicaa ok, and Berserk was awesome. I`m not quite finished with Berserk yet but so far it`s great! So how about it guys, anyone into manga?

akira is good, berserk too. i haven't read the other.
i highly recommend 'ghost in the shell' by masamune shirow. there is an anime movie based on the book, but it's not anywhere near the high quality of the manga.

i watched the movies for Battle angel(or gunnm or battle angel alita ect) and it's based on a manga which i'd like to read cause they only made 2 episodes and not much gets explained

I have read a fair amount. I liked Nausicaa quite a bit more than you...
I also like stuff by Takahashi Rumiko. I love Ranma 1/2, Lum, Maison Ikkoku, etc.
There was a series called Iron Fist Chinmi whcih I enjoyed quite a bit, but was only able to find the first 12 voulumes. I can't find any more, which is quite frustrating...

Ok, nice to see that I`m not the only one=) Maybe it`s just me but I think Nausicaa was hard to follow and hard to see drawings sometime. But maybe I just was a bit unfocused because I read Akira at the same time.
