Disturbing Manga
I'm really into manga that are disturbing. I like to test my emotional endurance by reading them. Any good ones you know of?

That depends on how far you're willing to go... because I can point you towards some really, really messed up stuff.
On second thought, that would probably be a very, VERY bad idea. Forget I said anything. [sweat] |
Hey, come on. Don't leave me hanging like that. I'm willing to go very far. And I mean, VERY far. I'm just trying to test myself. So go on, out with it[:)]

Best I can do is direct you towards some stuff by Shintaro Kago -- his stuff is pretty creepy/disturbing, but not as bad as other guro stuff. Obviously, it's NSFW, though, so you've been warned. [sweat] |
I read this really weird manga called "Fasting" the other day. It's pretty short, it's about a girl with an eating disorder and it gets so abruptly creepy at the end that it's kinda funny in a twisted way lol it just came out of nowhere. Another one is "Blood Slurping Darkness," which is also about a girl with an eating disorder but it starts getting weird pretty early on (it's also short). I'm not sure that I'd call either of them "good" really but they definitely disturbed me lol. I should've known that the first two eating disorder manga I found would be some bizarre horror stuff. Oh japan.
Oh! I started reading this one horror manga called "Higanbana no saku yoru ni" and the subject matter it deals with is highly disturbing in and of itself. The main character is a little girl who is being sexually abused by her teacher and it gets very dark. Some of the dialogue is kinda narmy but there's this whole plot about "the seven mysteries" at the girl's school, which are a bunch of urban legends that are actually real and controlled by spirits. I never finished it though |
Have you heard of Elfen Lied?

If you are after gore, I may not know much about it. I see that Elfen Lied have been mentioned, I can also recommend Tokyo Ghoul and an older movie called Akira - that one is a classic and an absolute must watch for very true anime and manga fan. ;)

I read a really screwed up yaoi manga once, and when i saw how bad it was getting I stopped.
|
What was it called? :o

But, prettily drawn. <3 I read a similar manga once, let me see if I can find it... I am not into incest, but it was by one of my favorite authors, so I gave it a go. Ibitsu na Kakera Manga - Read Ibitsu na Kakera Manga Online for Free |
I'd like to recommend King of Thorn! I'm not sure if it counts as disturbing? It's got some pretty gore-y moments but overall it ends on a really positive note! But yeah, there's a lot of scenes where people get straight up eaten by giant monsters, and one of the characters ends up plunging their bleeding arm into alcohol, crumbling into stone, and turning into a griffin.
Another great one is Bio-Meat! It's another survival horror. Basically, Japan has created this creature that multiplies at an astonishing rate and can eat anything in order to solve the food crisis. One of them gets out, and long story short well...Humans become some of their favorite food. There's a couple arcs in the story, and I really enjoy the whole thing :) |

I remember Milk Closet was pretty weird.

i love disturbing anime (and pervy stuff)... i read When They Cry quite alot.. if you haven't read it and your into dark stuff give it a go
|
I would suggest battle royale, Higurashi when they cry (not the anime) manga or visual novel is better imo.

There's one where I can't think of the name. Earth is dying or some such, so we shoot cockroaches to Mars to prep the soil and whatever, and decades later the investigative team is killed by guant mutant cockroach men. So Earth sends teams from different countries who have their DNA spliced with other bugs to Mars to fight. It's... interesting

I recommend the various works by Junji Ito such as Gyo, Tomie, Hellstar Remina, and Spiral. He also made many other good tales. His artwork is also amazing!
