  • You have seen some of the best and I am guessing you have seen Naruto and Bleach as well.

    For comedy/action anime you could go for Katekyo hitman reborn or just check http://guidesandstuff.com/anime/best-action-anime.... and http://guidesandstuff.com/anime/best-anime.html for a longer list of good anime.

  • well Lain already suggested a few good ones so he gets credit for that but i'll give you a little more detail.

    Berserk- i guess this would epitomize the action adventure genre your looking for the most in my opinion. this is a one hell of manga. you'll probably have to find a summary on wikipedia because i can't describe the story because its that awesome. its the first manga i've ever read so now its all about which others can measure up. there's a 25 ep anime adaptation from the 90's with an ending that would just make you jump on the manga right away. the anime is pretty accurate but there are some parts that it left out. i just watched the anime then went and read the manga from the begining. and the manga is still ongoing.

    Sun-ken Rock - this was one of the most recent ones i found and i'm mad i haven't it sooner. it's funny but with so much badassness, and the artwork of it when on the serious tone is amazing. the story is about a guy named Ken who went to follow yumin, a girl that he's in love with, to Korea and be police officer like her. But after a year he still ends up failing to be one and has become broke and defeated. then in a wierd turn of events, ken ends up becoming the leader of a local gang. now he must try to get close to the he loves while trying to hide the fact that he is the head of a gang that will soon shake up the entire korean underworld. the first 6 chapters are a little more on the humor side but then the story gets crazy.

    Gantz - at first when i read the first few chapters i was like WTF?? its so wierd that i just paused off it for a little but then decided to keep going. the website i first went to showed it had 7000 likes on facebook and they cant all be crazy right? lol. once you get through the "what the hell is going on" moment, there is this really good story and mystery that you want to get to the bottom of. its not a mystery genre but if you give it a shot then you'll know what i mean. it also has 25 episode adaptation but, like berserk, the manga goes way farther. to be honest i didnt even watch the anime.

    The Breaker & The Breaker: New Waves - before sun-Ken rock this was my second place. Here is the Summary from Mangafox: The new English teacher, Chun-Woo, is not your ordinary teacher. Shioon, a victim of constant bullying, unexpectedly witnesses Chun-Woo's fighting power, and begs him to make him his disciple. Chun-Woo claims he can teach Shioon only if he is truly determined, and Shioon must jump off a bridge into a deep river in order to prove it! It turns out, however, that Chun-Woo and his powers are more than meets the eye. Shioon makes a grand entrance into the hidden world of martial arts, and he is about to be taught by the best there is!

    Its a really good korean manga. Its reletively on the short side with under 80 chapters but the story is awesome. Like almost all others it starts out a bit slow but it is deffinitely one that you want to give a try to. The Breaker New Waves is just a continuation of the first so its just more great

    Except for the breakers, all of them have nudity and/or some sex scenes. and though im not completely sure, most of the mangas on your list is of the shonen type. so if you give them a try be prepared lol

  • Rozen maiden

    Elfein lied

    Higurashi (some romance, blood, gore, and intesne plot)

    Boukurano (it's very sad, tragic, horrific, heartwrenching and everyone dies in the end, it's kind of like the hunger games or battle royale, where everyone is eliniminated in the end)

    Deadman wonderland (awesome, funny, adventure, action and good humor, and a bit of gore because people die a lot rofl)

  • watch High School of the Dead (manga and anime) -its aboout zombies and high school students have to kill them and survive. Very good series

    watch Eden of the East (anime and movie)- its a great modern science fiction

    watch Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (the newer version) if you haven't already, in my opinion its better than the original

  • Highschool of the Dead is amazing, its about high school students trying to survive during the zombie apocalypse. There is only one season so far, but the new season is coming out this year i think.
