The Most Underrated Manga that Fans Need to Read Dark Gathering

The Most Underrated Manga that Fans Need to Read

Here are seven manga that haven’t been serialized or received an anime adaption that deserve greater recognition from fans of manga and manhwa alike.

Many fans and critics agree that well-written manga is recognized when they’re either serialized in a major publication like Weekly Shōnen Jump or adapted into an anime. But many incredible stories exist that don’t fit these criteria. Additionally, anime isn’t always just adapted from manga. Others include series published or written in other countries such as South Korea’s manhwa, a popular example being God of High School. While high-profile manga and manhwa can garner a great deal of attention, both mediums still have plenty of gems that have slipped under the radar for even diehard fans.

Hero Has Returned

Though Hero Has Returned begins as a standard isekai, it has so much more to offer than its contemporaries. Every chapter after the beginning of this manhwa explores what happens to some heroes who come back home after going to a different world. The trials and tribulations these heroes endure upon their return reveal that no adventure in a magical world could ever be more harrowing than what they later experience in real life. Even more ironically, the first chapter is written so well that many fans were outraged when the series quickly shifted to a post-Isekai setting. But that’s what makes Hero Has Returned so compelling, it subverts so many tropes of isekai to create a truly heartbreaking story.

Battle of the Six Realms

It’s a surprise that Battle of the Six Realms hasn’t been picked up by a major publisher since the series is classic shonen, a genre that always performs well and usually leads to successful anime titles including My Hero Academia, Bleach, Naruto, and Dragon Ball. The manga contains all of the right ingredients: a fighting tournament, strange powers that are unlocked via odd and even disturbing means, and stars a character who originally doesn’t possess any special abilities but then awakens his power during a moment of intense pressure. But Battle of the Six Realms isn’t just a carbon copy of successful titles. It stands out for the particular setting where the hero originally resides: A slum that lies beneath the world of the privileged few whose trash is literally dropped into the laps of those who live there.

The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge

Readers always love a good revenge story especially when what sparks the need for vengeance is brutal. The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge is all that and more. The manga effectively plays with the feelings of readers who want the main character to be special. Originally, the series portrays Kyrie as literally one of a kind because only one hero can exist at a time in her world, and their god chooses her and grants her powers to fulfill that role. However, the manga soon leads readers to assume that her abilities are worthless before proving otherwise yet again in a stunning display of well-crafted storytelling. Although all powers are fictional, the manga employs scientific principles to explain Kyrie’s abilities, providing them with additional depth as other successful series sometimes do while amplifying the aforementioned ferocity of Kyrie’s revenge.

The Strongest Haunted House and the Guy with No Sense

It’s a travesty that The Strongest Haunted House and the Guy with No Sense isn’t serialized as it masterfully combines romantic comedy with the supernatural. The manga essentially takes the concept of what it means to be a star-crossed lover to the extreme when a ghost who originally wanted nothing more than to scare the occupant of her haunted house falls in love with him. Meanwhile, the occupant yearns to see a ghost but can’t because he has no supernatural senses. The anticipation rises as the two attempt new ways to communicate with each other and soon reach heights when a third party begins serving as their translator and jealousy comes into play. The comedic effect of both the ghost as she tries desperately to scare the haunted house’s occupant and his frustration of not getting spooked works quite well due to the superb chemistry of both characters, which is ironic since they can’t even interact.

Kangibanka

What sets Kangibanka apart from other manga is the combination of the intricate relationship between two of the main characters and the dark world in which they live, the grotesqueness of which only serves to draw the reader in for the same reason why Law & Order: SVU attracts so many viewers. As a boy named Kyubei and his younger brother try to escape the aforementioned horror that plagues their lives, Kyubei’s character undergoes a massive change once he gets swept into the overly ambitious dream of the charismatic Tamon Maru. Kyubei originally rejects and actively endeavors to avoid Tamon and his dream, but as extraneous circumstances force him into Tamon’s life, Kyubei not only comes to respect and even love Tamon but takes it upon himself to ensure Tamon’s dream comes to fruition. The fact that the story transpires during an especially dark era of feudal Japan only serves as a poignant foreshadowing of what’s to come.

Dark Gathering

The manga Darth Gathering effectively weaves together comedy and horror through the ironic pairing of two very different characters. The comedic effect comes solely from a boy named Keitarou who unfortunately not only has a predisposition for attracting ghosts despite being terrified of them but also gets himself involved in the life of an immensely powerful little girl named Yayoi who is obsessed with pursuing all things supernatural. It is essentially a match made in hell. Keitarou is a dream come true for Yayoi while she is his worst nightmare. In addition to forcing Keitarou to get entangled in terrifying situations involving overly powerful ghosts for her own needs, Yayoi exhibits some unsettling tendencies herself. Her long, intense, and soul-piercing gaze aside, this little girl captures and tortures the ghosts she finds in an obscene manner, which is almost as twisted as how she collects them.

Inside Tsubaki Kunoichi’s Heart

Many elements make this romantic comedy stand out. The first is the adorable premise. Tsubaki Kunoichi is interested in boys but lives in a village composed only of women who condemn and ridicule men to imply that someone who has feelings for the opposite sex wouldn’t be viewed positively. Therefore, she endeavors to hide her true feelings but sometimes gives in to temptation, though her attempts fail each time she succumbs to weakness. The fact that all of the characters are ninjas who employ jujutsu adds to the series’ charm and overall creativity.

Honorable mentions and why they didn’t cut. Love After World Domination because the manga recently got picked up to receive an anime adaptation, Reinstated as the Strongest Flame Messenger because the main character recovered too quickly after burning in hell for centuries, Ragna Crimson because the main character becomes too powerful too quickly, and Mukai Usagidou Nikki because only one chapter has been released.
