get_parent is a method on a specific instance of the Page class, it's not a property. You should not call it from the Page class directly, but rather from a specific page.

It should look something like this:

parent = MangaPage.objects.get(title='Some Title').specific().get_parent()

Essentially what you are doing in your code example is searching for a MangaPage that has a title equal to the method Page.get_parent, which of course there are none. You need to get the parent of a specific page instance.
