Like my sig suggests I'm reading The World God only knows. But I'm also reading Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, Fairy Tail and Gintama. Just started reading that last one. Sora no Otoshimono is another one too. I recently finnished Nozoki Ana after Christmas and it was a nice story. Warning, the manga does have explicit sex scenes in it. But the stroy was more than that. It was about love.
Anyway what about you all?

Attack on Titan, Claymore, and the big two of Naruto to and Bleach. I tend to take breaks and then read a bunch. Open to suggestions.

Otokojuku, Grappler Baki etc.. in my country, but this more niche-oriented mangas probably don't sell here, i dream with H-Mangas like Ring X Mama being published in brazil

Otokojuku, Grappler Baki etc.. in my country, but this more niche-oriented mangas probably don't sell here, Sorry to hear about it : I was convinced that if one country in the world, besides Italy, could afford to release Jojo (and other niche shounen cult titles), it was Brazil though. Jojo has had a difficult publishing history here too, the first editor dropped it rught at the end of Diamond years ago, we were lucky another one came in and decided to release Golden Wind and the following seies, but as far as I know, Jojo isn't profitable for them. People seems more than ever afraid to commit to over-long series, with some volumes having been out of stock for years now. Do you know FUJITA Kazuhirô ? It may interest you too. Drawing with a strong character, completely over-the-top shounen battle manga set in weird settings like puppets circus or fairy tales. Manabe erotic production is awesome; funny to see how a former "mainstream" mangaka went full adult manga during the 2000s (granted, he has been drawing doujinshis since decades now, but still...) I'm fond of Tail Chaser and Makunouchi Deluxe, but Ring Mama features a great female lead too

i'll take a look in Fujira Kazuhiro later, Ushio no tora looks awesome Ushio to tora was maybe one of his first series, dunno if it has aged well and there are probably better titles to read in the 80/90s occult action shounen manga category (like Kujaku-oh - first series was great, Jojo/Hokuto no Ken style of drawings and full of occult references; it started as a monster-of-the-week type of ploting before going insanely epic). But Karakuri Circus and Moonlight Act are well worth a read, at least and i hope in a future see more classic mangas here, for authors like Go Nagai(my favorite mangaka), Ikki Kajiwara, Shotaro Ishinomori, Tetsuo Hara, Tetsuya Saruwatari, Miyashita Akira etc.. A lot of classics Especially Go Nagai's Devilman and Shotaro Ishinomori's Sabu to Ichi are among my favorite manga ever, too. And I love Cutey Honey, of course

Depends on your taste for 80's B-movies/Glam hot-blooded action/adventure/mystery shounen manga, really. Series has existed for something like almost 30 years, now ? Going from pulp 30's adventure (think Indiana Jones) with vampires and nazis in one arc (Battle Tendency), to a Japanese take on super-heros mixed with a globetrotter trip around the world (Stardust Crusader, the next arc to be animated), a serial-killer mystery in a small Japanese town (Diamond is Unbreakable) or the adventures of a small gang of mafiosi in 2000's Italy (Golden Wind). It's hard to summarize, really - except that it's a manga which sum up perfectly everything that was fun with 80's shounen manga and pop-culture.
