You see a decent amount of music anime out there, but they all tend to be pretty focused on the more dramatic side of making music. However, Beck walks a much finer line – balancing the drama of the creative struggle and coming of age with some pretty decent comedy. Comedy and drama is difficult to do well, and Beck sets the bar of what it should be.

Where To Start The Beck Manga After The Anime?
If you finished the Beck anime and wish to continue the story with the manga, you can start at Chapter 33.
What to Expect From The Beck Manga?
The anime is actually a really decent adaptation for most of the series, but around the start of the American tour (Chapter 23 in the manga) it starts to changes things a little more frequently. If you are really a stickler for the details, you may wish to start at Chapter 23 instead, but otherwise you do not need to.
You may also notice that the manga is a little more focused on the comedy, but that is because the art style is a little more focused on the “silly faces” of it all.
Is The Beck Manga Over?
The Beck manga is completed. It ended in 2008 with Chapter 103.
Will There Be A Beck Season 2?
Unfortunately, both the anime and manga are long over, which means Beck is destined to fade into obscurity.
I think it would be appropriate to give studio credits for the images. For obvious reasons. Won’t even mention what toei did last year
