Bakuman (Season 1)


This series is totally fantastic! The story gripped me from the very first episode and after having a huge marathon today of about 10 episodes i managed to finish it.

The story is about two young boys who want to become mangakas (manga writers). Mashiro, who has been drawing ever since he was little, with his uncle who was a mangaka, and Takaki, boy genius and story writer.

Mashiro, who has a crush on Azuki, promises her that if they become famous and produce an anime he will marry her and so starts their dream. More here.

Everything is brilliant about this anime, the art, the story, the characters... i've already got season 2 waiting for me and i can't wait to see what happens next.

I think anyone at any age will enjoy this. It may be popular but it's also extremely well written (if only all manga/anime was like that >.<). You will begin to understand the process of a manga and how Shounen Jump in particular works. All in all interesting!!! :3
