Manga was canceled, though the ending (we still haven't gotten the final chapter scanlated) felt right since where it ended.

That's a bummer. It's hitting pretty good notes so far. At least nice to know the ending's handled ok.

Uh... wait. That's a pretty huge reveal. Huh. Hmm. Still a bunch I don't understand a lick of but I think the rough idea is obvious enough. That's surprising.
Also lost it when I saw Piuy haha. The author just doesn't care. I love it.
If you're looking for good smut, have you read Keijo and Tsugumomo?

Any recommendations for completed manga with lots of gore and depravity. Hopefully with a decent story. If they have an anime/ova can you note how thorough an adaptation it is.
Stuff I've remembered I've read:
Ichi the Killer
Blame! And the other works by the author
Elfen Lied
Franken Fran
Gantz
Parasyte
Battle Royal
Thanks for any suggestions.

Dont worry too much about how it ends. The stuff leading up to the ending is fantastic. I am bouncing in excitement just thinking about it.
Tons of finished sports manga that I can recommend but you seem to be interested in more mature content
Have you read Litchi Light Club, Hellsing, Panorama of Hell, and any work from Shintaro Kago? Hellsing has an OVA as well which is supposedly pretty good (and an anime which supposedly isn't).

No but I'll check them out. I mostly wanted a comedy to read. The faces in Prison School slay my life.

...Make sure when reading Tsugumomo your not reading in a public place, seriously don't. Prison School, Keijo other smutty mangas sure, but not this.

I can confirm both of these.
The OVAs are basically the completed manga in animated form so YMMV based on if you actually liked the manga or not, the anime takes pieces from the (incomplete) manga then fills the rest of it with its own trash.
Uh...there was a Manga from the author of Ciguatera (I think?) that made HS me die in laughter. It was about 2 brothers becoming homeless and trying to live without their parents with all the absurdity of Prison School. Kind of ugly at times though, which just adds to the hilarity.
Edit: Yeah, it's Boku to Issho

Yea if there is one thing i'll give it and that's the soundtrack, especially that main theme.
Alucard's Theme is a very close second
In this case Grand Blue will definitely be your jam.

As promised, my comic collection in Japan. Most of the American comics are in my home country. Lots of the American stuff aside from nice graphic novels that I read now is all digital, because I move a lot and comics take up space.
In fact, because I move a lot, I never bought another bookshelf, so this is all very disorganized. I'm moving to the other side of the city at the beginning of July.
From top left to bottom right: Despera, The Private Report on My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness, The Summit of the Gods, Pink, Horror collection, Otoyomegatari info book on central Asia, Kuutei Dragons, Umimachi Diary, Arte, Gundam Thunderbolt, Tokyo Tarareba Musume, Basara, 7Seeds, Ahiru no Sora, Aku no Hana, Fuan no Tane+, God's Left Hand, Devil's Right Hand, (now on to the second shelf) Museum (sideways), Itou Junji Horror Compendium, Horror collection, Vinland Saga, Kachou Shima Kousaku, Tasogare Ryuuseigun, Blue Giant, Soranin, Oyasumi Punpun, Aoi Horus no Hitomi, Wolfsmund, Shinazu no Ryouken, Hinamatsuri, Ran and the Grey World, Gisele Alain, Tsukiyo no Toratsugu, Hakumei to Mikochi, Dungeon Meshi, Hikidashi ni Terrarium, Emma, Otoyomegatari, Yotsuba&, Ghost Lady, Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou, Kasane, Dosei Mansion (Saturn Apartment), San gatsu no Lion, Berserk, Golden Kamui, Sexy Voice and Robo, Cross Game, Ore to Akuma no Blues, Omoide no Marnie (color), I am a Hero

Really nice collection, and you just reminded me to pre-order My Lesbian Experience and Golden Kamui this June in the west. Pretty much 90% that I don't own/started I would love to buy but either it will never get licensed in the US ( 3-Gatsu, Hinamatsuri, Ran and the Grey World), I'm waiting for a good sale on (Oyasumi Punpun and Otoyomegatari) or I'm not willing to sell an arm and a leg to buy (Berserk with how shit Dark Horse is with printing copies, and I decided to only sell part of an arm instead to complete my FMA and HxH collection for cheap via Ebay).

Extra long plot summary page or two and start translating it at the most current issue while also translating from the beginning for release in physical/digital volume format.

Innocent Devil 1
The wacky adventures of a criminal psychologist who worships 'innocent' murderers, and her lovable sidekick who's an innocent murderer. The latter spends 10 pages this chapter pinning a regular murderer to the ground and questioning him about how she's supposed to feel while killing someone. It's fairly unhinged and I love it.

Half of that happened though? They're even going for speedy monthly volume releases too for the old stuff, and pretty much released all of the chapters for free as much as reasonably possible for them to do (they can't keep all the back-chapters free forever).
This isn't me needling about how you are choosing to read it, but just me being puzzled since they pretty much have done everything I can reasonably see them doing aside from adding the simulpub to Jump

And that was the first thing they should have done, same with Assassination Classroom when they got dragged kicking and screaming to pick it up.
Pretty nice collection. It must be tough carrying all these of you're moving constantly, no?
You're telling me. I didn't set out to amass a collection when I arrived and I still ended up shipping home 3 boxes of manga I had piecemeal collected mostly from 100y book-offs.
Life Consultation After 10 Years (NSFW)
Once again, OreImo porn doujin better than the source material. This time it's about Kirino being gone for 10 years after their dad finds out about Kirino and Kyousuke's relationship. The siblings have grown up and moved on... in a sense.
It's neat to see a a 100-page work like this suddenly get translated in its entirety. The ending was about as happy as it could have been, given the setup and general mood.

Kirino is bit of a cunning woman in this, fueled by irrational passion left brewing from a relationship forcefully broken, and a grudge towards Manami.

Murenase! Shiiton Gakuen 26
The strongest duo. When Miyubi reacts to a life-or-death situation before you do, you should probably get yourself medically examined. Manako and her suicidal tendencies are cute, but I doubt we'll be seeing much more of her in the future, not least because there's already one chronic source of death in the main group.
On the bright side your Japanese proficiency has to have improved with these.

Seishun Kinema 3
Sad that it seems they were coming to the end of their sessions, but was hopeful theyd finally address what their relationship is and where to move on from there. The girlfriend part was perfect opportunity for it. Yamamotocchi even expressed enough concern to reach out to Todo when he wasn't feeling well and what not.
Too bad the manga finally went the route I feared it to go, its always these type of characters like Yamamotocchi that would do something like that and potentially jeopardize the situation. I hope they work it out.

Promised Neverland 37
It's good to see more of Isabella. Guess she knows about Phil, and is taking the escape better than I expected. I hope Ray's baby memories become a constant plot point lol.
Boruto 12
I'd be ok if this just became Yugioh
One Piece 864
Decent chapter. Bege was pretty good. Wish the vinsmokes were more interesting.
My Hero 136
Set up! Nice to see Aizawa back in the mix. Liked the panels at the end.
Dr. Stone 09
I don't really like how we are getting another Tsukasa showdown like 3 chapters after the last one. Would have been interesting if he actually killed her though! I'm guessing whoever Taiju met will snipe him or something.
Robo 7
I like how it is such a goofy/weird reason for Robo's motivation. Nice to see the cast expanded (that one top 4 guy looks just like Midorima). Wonder if he will have trouble making the regular rotation, or will just jump to second place on the team.
We Never Learn 09
Chapter went about as expected.
Black Clover 108
I enjoy this series a lot more when it's not during fights. Last couple of chapters has caused me to like Yuno a lot more too. He's much better when he is a foil to Asta and just giving this dead pan responses to his dumb comments/inquiries. Still not sold on him as a compelling rival though. Yami in troll mode was great. And the crimson knights sister has been good so far. I think this hot springs/volcana arc should be fun.

Boruto
Plot reason for why Boruto didnt even end up with the ability to make even 10% of Naruto's 1000 clones needs to be explained. Otherwise the TCG is amazing integration into this manga. I still want to know who Boruto is after, I used to think it was Naruto,s but Im leaning heavily towards SSR Sasuke now. Also the friendship levels was really high.
Wish we didnt go the bad butler route, but it should be enjoyable if it hits the usual notes.

Owari no Serafu
First Vampire vs the Seraph of the End would have been awesome to see animated, as well as the Kureto fight, surprisingly found myself cheering for him even though I didnt like his character much because he came across as really bad, but now that he is going to be possessed I feel in someways a bit sad.
BLue Exorcist
Renzo chapter was a nice change, Im starting to like his sword/spirit.
BLack Clover
Was all excited but then, the hot spring was show...not what I wanted. Poor Yuno.

I mean I'm not following the manga but I'd imagine him not being a Jinchuiriki and not having the resultant amounts of chakra would have something to do with that.

Maou-jou de Oyasumi 31
With all the suffering the demon monk's gone through, I'm surprised he keeps resurrecting the princess. Boss's orders probably. Cat →← princess seems like a natural fusion due to their mutual selfishness.

I just thought/was hoping he could at least inherit just a tiny bit or something even without kurama there.
Yeah.... doesn't work like that
. He's way more talented and smarter than Naruto was at his age tho!And that really means something! Naruto's chances of being even a decent ninja was slim to none without Kurama.

The Promised Neverland
Really strong ending for the first arc, if that is the last we see of Isabella it was a pretty satisfying final moment for her. There is no turning back now for TPN as a series no idea what direction the series will go from here but I'm ecstatic to see what's going to happen.
One Piece
Beige had a dope af moment at the end of the chapter. I love when OP lets things go completely bananas. The new big mom children seem really cool can't wait to see them taken down. The moment with the vin smokes felt weak perhaps if they weren't such miserable pricks I'd care that they realized they were betrayed.
Boruto
Boruto is such a better protagonist then Naruto it's actually kinda embarrassing. His bond with the daiymo's son felt really natural though I think the monthly format and longer chapter made the twist of the butler being evil lose the impact I think the series wanted it to have.
My Hero Academia
Mostly a set up/segue chapter, glad to see nighteye's power has a pretty major drawback since up till this point it seemed incredibly op. Glad Erasure is getting more focus as a hero since I think he thrives in that role better then the one of instructor.
Dr Stone
I felt the transition to Yuzuriha being captured by Tsukasa and Taiju being afk was weird. It felt like I missed half a chapter and I had to double check to make sure I didn't skip a page. Yuzuriha got the short hair downgrade which is a shame and she continues to be a worthless damsel in distress hopefully the new character spices things up. Senku and Tsukasa had a great back and forth ignoring the Yuzuriha captured thing.
Robot X Laserbeam
Reading this and Haikyuu at the same time cast a massive spotlight on how terrible of a protagonist Robo is. For as much as I complained about Hinata in Haikyuu he still is 1000x better then Robo. Hopefully these 4 upper classmen shut robo down and make him work on some freaking fundamentals like how to be an interesting character.
We Never Learn
I feel like the series is pushing towards literature girl being the "main girl" but it's still hard to say for sure. The only reason this harem shit hasn't lost me yet is because I'm honestly not sure which of the two lead girls is the obvious front runner (sorry tanned sports girl you already lost). I do like that we might see an antagonist in the form of the vice principal/secretary character.
Blue Exorcist
I honestly forget why we came here and this chapter seemed like needlessly long set up and irrelevant family member introduction. All the character moments fell completely flat and the key point of the chapter (the divide growing between yukio and rin) should have gotten more screen time.
Black Clover
This chapter had perfect comedic timing across the board and might be my favorite chapter of BC ever. I like Yuno developing the role of the straight man foil to Asta far more then I do as him as the budding rival to become wizard king. The female captain is awesome hopefully she gets a lot more screen time going forward.
Food Wars
I read this chapter the other week with the fan scan, but the official translation makes it really obvious Soma won. Not that we expected any other outcome since Soma can't lose in the first match up in this tournament.
Seraph of the End
So vampires ARE the bad guys in the end... okay... I'm not sure why the 1st vampire looks like an angel but whatever. This shit with the leader of the hirugai feels like it came out of nowhere if the father being evil was such a big deal why was he never introduced before now?
