Some of these manga sound really interesting.

I think you messed up a couple of the names. The author of Days is Tsuyoshi, not Takeshi. The author of Wakako Sake is Shinkyu, not Araku.

WHAT THE HELL!?
Seriously, this is the list........tshh. Sakamoto Desu Ga, well I admit is funny. And Shokugeki no Soma and One-punch man does have potential.... Other than that, there are huge ass Shoujo mangas here which aren't that GOOD, they are average. Oh well. Nothing will happen even if I complain. |

Sakamoto... sure, that thing really deserves the first place. Seriously. Just try reading it.
Other than that I enjoyed Ajin, Horimiya and Onepunch Man. I'm interested in Bungo Stray Dogs but never had the chance to read it. |

I've seen Sakamoto promoted at book stores and have been curious about it. Will see if they have it at work though I still have a back log of manga to read. (And I do read every day during my commute... Just so much stuff to read though!!)

The number 1 manga seemed to be popular when I was in Japan. There were displays for it in every bookstore & a lot of people seemed to be buying it.
The number 8 manga sounds interesting to me because it is about adults |

Interested in Wakako Sake... Simple, yet intriguing.

hmm....So much praise for "Sakamoto desu ka?"....but it doesn't interest me at all, it's just, doesn't seems to be what I like to read at all :/
about the others on the list, I remember reading a bit of Horimiya last year and it was cute, but I never read the continuation about One Punch Man, a friend of mine seems to be overly in love with the MC lol, I may give it a try someday, it looks fun xD now about titles I didn't know.... the ones that got my attention are: - Honey - Hibi Chôchò - Bungo Stray Dogs (is the artist the same one that illustrated Seven Heavens CDs covers?) - Yugami-kun ni ha Tomodachi ga Inai - P and JK (I'm not going to lie, I love those kind of stories with High School student x Adult and if that wasn't enough he is a policeman too! xD) |

The only one on the list I've read is The Seven Deadly Sins and I'm really enjoying it.
Out of the other picks on the list, these are the ones I want to check out: Ajin, Horimiya, and P and JK. Oh, and possibly One Punch Man. |

The first volume of Sakamoto Desu Ga is sheer genius. The second unfortunately didn't meet my expectations. Let's hope she recovers in the 3rd - though it is a bit hard to keep on that track à-la Tonari no Seki-kun without running out of steam [as it seems in the second volume already.]

Sakamoto has a very ridiculous plot to the point that it is humorous. Yah.....I still don't like the list overall. haha

The descriptions for Sakamoto and Ajin are pretty inaccurate.
I enjoyed what I read of Ajin but I'm afraid it may get painful waiting for new chapters. Might be better to wait a few years (10?) and read it all at once? Sakamoto gets better once it turns into a horror manga in chapter 6. I liked the start of Onepunch Man but expected it to quickly run out of interesting ideas. I was wrong. It's surprisingly good. It's also interesting to compare the original art (some of the worst around though still funny) to the commercial art (some of the best around). Haven't read any of the others. |
