No Cliffhangers: 5 Completed Manga Masterpieces to Binge Right Now

The Joy of the "The End"

There is nothing worse than catching up to a manga only to realize you have to wait 5 years for the ending (cough One Piece cough).

Sometimes, you just want a complete experience. A beginning, a middle, and a satisfying end.

If you are looking for a story to binge-read this weekend without fear of hiatuses, here are the 5 Best Completed Manga available in Box Sets.

1. Fullmetal Alchemist

The Perfect Story. It is rare for a long-running shonen to wrap up every single plot thread perfectly, but Hiromu Arakawa did it. The journey of the Elric brothers is tight, emotional, and philosophically deep.

The Box Set: The "Fullmetal Edition" hardcovers are beautiful, but the complete Box Set is the best value. Check the Fullmetal Alchemist Complete Box Set on Amazon.

2. Tokyo Ghoul (+ Re)

The Tragedy. The anime adaptation was... messy. To truly understand Kaneki’s descent into madness and his rise as the One-Eyed King, you must read the manga. Sui Ishida’s art is abstract, painted, and horrifyingly beautiful.

The Box Set: There are two box sets (Original and Re). Start with the first one.

3. Death Note

The Thriller. Short, sweet, and intense. Light Yagami vs. L is the greatest mental chess match in fiction. The manga features insanely detailed art by Takeshi Obata that the anime sometimes simplified.

The Box Set: The "All-in-One Edition" is a massive brick, but the traditional Box Set is much easier to read.

4. Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba)

The Phenomenon. The anime is still airing, but the manga is done. If you can't wait to see the Infinity Castle Arc animated, you can read the entire final battle right now. The pacing in the final arc is breathless.

The Box Set: It comes in a beautiful box featuring Nezuko and Tanjiro.

5. Goodnight Punpun (Oyasumi Punpun)

The Depression. Warning: This is not for the faint of heart. It’s a Seinen masterpiece about growing up, mental illness, and broken dreams. Punpun is drawn as a bird doodle, but he feels more human than any realistic character. It will change you.

The Format: Available in 7 thick omnibus volumes.
