I've read all of them,
Berserk goes down hill after Band of the Hawk arc,
Battle Angel Alita is entertaining but it's not I considered as a good plot manga.
20th century boys is very good, you might want to read monster, coming from the same author/mangaka
Hunter x Hunter, the plot is simple & entertaining however his latest releasedrawing are crap.

I also read Fruits Basket, xXxHolic, Loveless and Chobits.



Hhmm, Hokuto no Ken. I bought all the manga series when I was in Indonesia. Well, I was in high school, hokuto no ken seems good at that time however I don't think I consider that as a good one now. The story arc seems to me Kenshiro got beaten up first and then for some strange situation he manage to beat his enemy

There are also some things that doesn't settle in the Naruto storyline. Generally:

- Naruto's generation of ninjas are all super gifted compared to Iruka and Kakashi's generation
- Naruto is supposedly "above" Kakashi, except he can't use any real killer moves/spells since Rasengan isn't very useful tactics-wise. Just compare Kakashi's flashback to present Naruto
- Orochimaru is supposedly weaker than Itachi, Itachi + Kisame can't really beat Jiraiya, but Orochimaru thought he was stronger than Jiraiya. Now that Sasuke killed Orochimaru, only Naruto can possibly "save" him because it wouldn't make sense for anyone else to do so

And alot of minor things.

I agree with Zorander. Orochimaru is genjutsu type ninja. Genjutsu are useless against Itachi, that's why Itachi is the worst match up for Orochimaru. Sasuke are able to kill Orochimaru because he is in weak condition and he match up against his worst (sharingan). Naruto is going to save Sasuke since that's the main plot, it's the same as Harry Potter is the one who's going to kill Voldemort.
