Round 1, Match 12:

Shonan Junai Gumi



Vs

Rurouni Kenshin



Vs

Yu Yu Hakusho



Vs

Monster



--------------

Monster
Rurouni Kenshin
Yu Yu Hakusho
Shonan Junai Gumi

I wasn't sure whether to give second place to Kenshin or Yu Yu Hakusho but since I've read more of the former it won out, at least for now.

Same as Pharass.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Rurouni Kenshin
Monster
Shonan Junai Gumi
Yu Yu Hakusho

My god, this is an amazing round, and it was so tough to pick.

I love Yu Yu Hakusho to death, but at the end of the day I'm more of a fan of the anime for its improvements over the manga, even though the manga was still excellent up until the end of the Chapter Black arc. I still would have put YYH higher, to be honest, but since its already a very popular series on the whole with tons of recognition, I wanted to show some more support to SJG, a very underrated series, even if I know it won't win.

At the end of the day, though, I think that most people can agree that all 4 series in this round are excellent manga in their own rights.
