Along the way, she assembles other Sailor Scouts-warriors meant to represent the other planets of the solar system-to help her in her mission. The heroine, Usagi Tsukino, discovers she is Sailor Moon, a warrior destined to protect Earth from evil. One of the best manga about magical girls, Sailor Moon has the honor of being the series that launched the genre as we know it today. Because Tohru is a kind-hearted girl, she agrees to keep this discovery a secret and then sets about to break the family curse. Each member of the Sohma family is possessed by a spirit of the Chinese zodiac and will transform into their animal form under a specific set of conditions. In doing so, she uncovers their family secret. When her mother dies in a car accident, high school student Tohru Honda finds herself living with the Sohma family. With these newfound abilities, he plans to create a utopian world free of any crime, but as they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. A brilliant high school student obtains a notebook that grants him the ability to kill anyone whose name and face he knows. Please forget the atrocious, whitewashed Netflix adaptation and read the original manga instead. Death Note by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata In my opinion, barring any other reading preferences, this is the best manga to give someone to get them hooked on the medium. Not only does it delve into the relationship between brothers after a catastrophe, it features some of the most awesome female characters you will ever see in a manga and an intriguing plot that consists of conspiracy, redemption, and sacrifice. The premise is deceptively simple: two brothers search for the Philosopher’s Stone to restore their bodies when an attempt to bring their mother back to life goes horribly awry. When you ask a manga reader what their favorite title is, Fullmetal Alchemist is usually in their top 10, and for good reason.
