Here are some possibilities:
Based on the time period (Feudal Japan):
* Folklore and legends: Manga based on Japanese folklore, like "Momotarō" or "Urashima Taro" might be popular.
* Samurai stories: Manga depicting samurai battles and bushido (the code of the samurai) would likely be common.
* Tales of demons and yokai: Since Inuyasha's world is filled with yokai, it's likely that manga stories about these creatures would be read.
Based on the themes in Inuyasha:
* Romance and love: Manga exploring themes of love, betrayal, and sacrifice, like "The Tale of Genji" (although it predates Inuyasha by centuries, it's a classic).
* Action and adventure: Manga with thrilling battles and journeys, similar to "Fist of the North Star" (although a bit later in time, it fits the action genre).
* Supernatural and fantasy: Manga with elements of magic and mystical creatures, like "Fushigi Yugi" (which was published during the same time as Inuyasha).
Beyond the specific manga titles, here are some general genres that might be popular:
* Historical fiction: Stories set in feudal Japan or other historical periods.
* Adventure manga: Stories with thrilling journeys, battles, and exploration.
* Fantasy manga: Stories with magic, mythical creatures, and other fantastical elements.
Ultimately, what manga Inuyasha's friends might read is a matter of speculation. However, considering the era and themes of the story, it's safe to assume they would enjoy manga that reflects their world and interests.
