eclipsezero Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 So yeah, I have been itching for some action based shounen manga. The only major requirement I have is that it should have fantastic action(Perhaps with loads of trickery mid-battle? That's always fun to read for me :V), don't mind anything else, could be comedic, serious, anything goes! What I've read and liked: Beelzebub Mahou Sensei Negima Psyren One Punch Man Noblesse The Breaker It doesn't necessarily have to be just a manga btw, could be a good animu(Original or based on a manga) as well V: EDIT: Realized it was a bit dumb to limit it to just shounen material, so go ahead and recommend anything with good action V: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikel Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'd go for The Law of Ueki. There is a manga, but I haven't read it, I can say that the anime is great though. It's shounen and the battles are not normal battles, everyone has different powers, you should give it a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sieg Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 http://mangafox.me/manga/akame_ga_kiru/ This one's pretty good, and has a lot of chapters so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldin Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Battle Royale. That counts as action, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garejei Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I can only recommend anime if that's not a huge problem. Stuff that comes to mind now: Sword of the Stranger (exceptionally good fight scene choreography in this one), Karas, Sengoku Basara, Black Lagoon.

Down Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Hunter x Hunter is the best battle shounen I've ever read. It's really amazing. It has basically everything you can expect from a battle shounen and way more. Nekketsu, battle tricks, awesome villains (REALLY awesome), awesome characters in general, a fantastic world-building... It's also more 'mature' than other shounen. loads of trickery mid-battle? And it seems exactly what you're looking for! All the battles are based on tricks and techniques. If you prefer anime, the 2011 adaptation is GREAT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redgrave Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Rurouni Kenshin Hunter X Hunter Attack on Titan Hajime no Ippo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnar Matryoshka Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hmm Action-Based Manga huh? That I find interesting: - Arachnid - Area D - Inou Ryouiki - Claymore - Tower of God <- A webtoon Man Hwa (not a manga) I think have a good potential: - Adashi mono - Tokage no Ou - Accel Word Dural - Magisa Garden - Antimagia - Black Bullet Most recommended: - Angel Densetsu <- Even though the drawing is bad, but the story is good and funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
