I am really looking for some new manga. My summer job starts next week so i will have some cash handy. I am kinda into action/adventure, comedy, horror and....... ghost-ish (like shaman king)
These are the mangas that i currnetly read: Shaman King Sandland (well, the series ended, but i liked it) Hikaru no go (although i don't like game manga all that much) Yu-Gi-Oh (see above) One Piece DBZ Yuyu Hakusho Naruto Rurouni Kenshin Knights of the Zodiac Bleach (the manga hasn't come out quite yet in english (next week) but i liked the preview in SJ) Rave (Master) Samurai Deeper Kyo PS: I am really into samurai stuff |

It looks like you'll love Bleach, so yeah, keep with trying that out.
When ADV releases it, try Peace Maker Kurogane, but warning ahead of time, there are 6 volumes that ADV is skipping in this release, or at least that's what it seems so far. If you're into importing manga, or finding other ways to read manga not licensed here, try Kurogane by Kei Tomei. It's about an robot made in the Edo period from the innards of a samurai. I enjoy it, but lots of people call it a knock off of something, so meh, to each their own. Have you tried Lone Wolf and Cub, currently being released by Dark Horse? |

Gundam Wing Vampire Princess Miyu Tenchi Muyo Trigun |

Trigun is very cool. Also try out Zombie Powder. It is by Tike Kubo the guy who did bleach. It isn't availible here though. But it is pretty cool. But be prepared that is suddenly stops at vol. 4.[/spoiler][/b] |

How about,
Blade of the Immortal The Island (Mahwa)-- Cool, slightly humorous horror. I also second Nuriko-chan's Vampire Princess Miyu. All the best, Nani? |

It seem that you really like the Shonen Jump title from viz.
Action Flame of Recca would be a good shonen title. Ragnarok is also good too. I got the 1st boxset of this one, very cool. Also Trigum Maximum vol. 1...I havn't read this yet since it just came out, but if you're a big fan of Trigun (who isn't) then this is a "must buy" title. Comedy Full Metal Panic GTO I would also recommend Blade of the Immortal or Vegabond if you're into Berserk. For mature readers though. |

You may also like:
Battle Vixens Excel Saga 3x3 eyes Okay none of these are samuri but all are good. A new title to try would be Samuri Executioner from Dark Horse Comics. Written before lone wolf and Cub, it's finally been translated into english (hopefully unflipped). |

I forgot to mention, I hate shojos, and i have recently read the first chapters of King of Hell and .hack and liked them.
and yes, I my main manga source is from Shonen Jump, but when I got RAve Master and Samurai Deeper Kyo, i got into Tokyopop more. I am also considering Berzerk, but i think my parents will get ticked if i buy it. |

Well Berserk is recommended for Mature reader. It can desensitized you if you're not ready for what it dishes out which is gore, sex, child's rape, suidice..all kind of f@$! up stuff. And if you're parents gonna freak out, they might also get the wrong idea about manga in general. I would also recommend Priest too, since it's less graphic in nature but still cool as hell. A fast pace western horror, ton of action. |
