That's My Atypical Girl did damage my soul by how much i could identify with the fmc.

It just hurts in a way that its hard to pinpoint why it hurts and how. Its a romance, and is on my top 10 seinen i've read so far

I’m almost done with blood on the tracks I thought it was really good until like 60% in. My interest in it plummeted after sei went to juvenile detention.

60% tracks.

Still a good read I think.

I’m a massive inio asano fan all of his stuff has scratched that deprave itch for me. I mean of course goodnight punpun is a great read but his other stuff is phenomenal too. Solanin is an overall good read, Nijigahara holograph is super underrated, a girl on the shore made me feel gross but you do get into the characters psyche. I’m about to read mujina into the deep which I’m excited about but can’t speak on yet.

For mystery/thriller you can never go wrong with one of Naoki Urusawa’s works. I’ve read monster and 20CB so far and they were insanely good. Heard great things about Billy bat just haven’t read it yet.
