I'm new to manga and have read the above. I get hooked on the cat and mouse of "How will our protagonist overcome it this time?". Any manga recommendations like this?

Of the above, Berserk was my favorite. Beefy men are a plus.

Thanks ahead of time!

The Promised Neverland

Nauiscaa of the Valley of the Wind

I got nearly to the end of The Promised Neverland and it just dragged on and on. I couldn't bring myself to finish it.

I'm surprised to see Nausicaa have a suddenly boost in popularity. It seems to be everywhere lately. I actually read through it in the late 90s but didn't quite grasp the concepts. I think I'll give it another shot. I still have my first edition paperbacks.

The Promised Neverland does drag a bit, but it does finally end.

Nauiscaa is one of my all time favorites, both the manga and the movie. My dad had the comic book store special order Nauiscaa for him as it came out translated into English. He finally let me read the whole thing back around 2000/2001. I think it just had it's 40th anniversary, so that may be why it's popping up again.
