Best manga subscriptions in America?
 
I kinda dislike Shonen Jump but are there any other popular subscriptions like that in America?
I really like shows like Bleach, Death note, and InuYasha if that helps...

Yen Plus has just started being published in North America. It seems aimed at the older teen demographic, and has much less ads and "fluff" compared to Shonen Jump. No Inyusha, Bleach, etc. though. The cover price is higher, but you get more content.

Hope that helps.

Yen plus is English "Manga" and Korean crap.
All we got is Jump and Shojo Beat.

Aww I kind of liked the manhwa. Jack Frost was pretty good and One Fine Day is so cute! ;_;

*casts a baleful glance at Payne222*

"...crap..."

Personally, I like Pig Bride and Higurashi When They Cry. Bamboo Blade also.

Wow that's pretty expensive. $50 for only 12 issues.. Plus I don't recognize even one series.
Any other options....? -_-

Well if you want anything cheaper you have to go to scanlations.
*glances at MMM*
But, yeah...
They're not allowed to be discussed here...

Rofl you still remember that? C;
But yeah other than Shoujo Beat and Shounen Jump we don't have anything. I wish America would have a good seinen manga magazine ._.

That's very disappointing. :(
America is missing out.
