Are you a Marvel fan who thinks comic books are the peak of visual storytelling? You might be missing out on a whole world of incredible stories. In this video, we'll dive into why the very things you love about the Marvel Universe—rich characters, epic world-building, and high-stakes action—are often done even better in Japanese manga.

From the psychological suspense of Monster to the definitive character growth in Fullmetal Alchemist and the unrivaled world-building of One Piece, we break down why a single creator's vision can lead to a more cohesive and impactful narrative. We'll also explore the brutal art of Berserk and the found-family heroics of My Hero Academia.
