Delinquent/Yankee manga or manwha you enjoy?
Delinquent manga is an interesting genre and one of my favorites, there can sometimes be really funny works, like Angel desnsetsu or Kyou kara Ore wa!! , on the other hand there are some that are really good for the fighting Holyland
There are also a similar genre in manwha, although their stories tend to be a lot less romanticized and more about bullying and close ties to adult gangs.
So what are some delinquents manga/manwha you personally like?
It's a Delinquent/Gang manga, it also has sequels.
GTO is a classic, although this time it's the delinquent turned into a teacher so it's not 100% about highschool delinquents.
As for Manwha, Transfer Student Storm Bringer was a fun read, and the reboot.
Wow I was just reading transfer student 2 days ago (the original of course) it was an extremely good misunderstanding comedy like angel densetsu but this time the protagonist is actually a wimp incapable of fighting. Also, what an ending arc it has!
GTO is definitely one of the greatest, didn't enjoy the actual delinquent prequel as much although it had a few entertaining storylines.
I don’t consider Holyland a classic delinquent manga. It’s more fighting/martial arts than deliquent. GTO is kind of the same, where the focus isn’t with the delinquent lifestyle. I enjoyed both of those immensely, but I didn’t enjoy most pure delinquent mangas (only exception is GTO prequel). Part of it is the style. I typically dislike mangas that are gritty and rough.
I prefer the live action TV series, but the Sukeban Deka series is great. It's about a high school girl who works as an undercover agent for a branch of the police that investigates crimes that take place at schools that regular cops aren't allowed to investigate. Unfortunately, very little of the franchise has been officially released in a English. ADV released the OVA in the 90's. The 2000's movie reboot got a release too, but that was the worst version IMO.
Yankee-kun to Hakujou Gaaru is one of my favorites. It's by no means a complex story, but it's sweet, and it appears to portray blindness pretty accurately.
