As a newcomer to both Anime and Manga I was totally overwhelmed. I was unsure where to begin - which streaming service to choose, where to buy hard copy and digital manga, and which series to watch first. There's literally thousands of anime and tens of thousands of manga to choose from!

Therefore I decided to create a few resources to help Newbies (like I was only 12 months ago) to discover some of the best manga and anime shows available. Not that I'm suggesting my preferences are the end of all and be all, but merely a place you might like to begin with.

Along with that, I'm also a huge proponent of supporting legitimate streaming and digital services (where available). We all know there's hundreds of pirated streaming sites. The only trouble with these is the actual ppl creating the manga and anime - don't get paid a single cent. It all goes to the web site owner. And believe it or not - the vast majority of manga artists (the original creators) don't actually earn very much money. At least with sites like Crunchyroll, AnimeLab and Funimation (to name a few) around 50% of the subscription goes to the © owners. So if you can afford to - please try to support legitimate sources - as everyone deserves to get paid for their work, don't you think?
