Your update was probably interrupted. You’ll have to boot from the install medium in live mode and complete the update from there in a chroot
.
When booted up from the live medium, open up a terminal window and issue the following commands…
sudo su -
manjaro-chroot -a
pacman-mirrors -f 5 && pacman -Syyu
update-grub
exit
Let it finish doing its thing, and then reboot the machine.
Can you boot with the Manjaro USB stick and show content of /boot ?
Is another OS installed?
I have windows 10 installed on a second hd and i am currently creating a manjaro usb stick
[manjaro@manjaro ~]$ sudo su -
[manjaro ~]#
[manjaro ~]# manjaro/chroot /a
-bash: manjaro/chroot: No such file or directory
[manjaro ~]# manjaro-chroot -a

That is the result. I had some typos i noticed to late(not used to the qwerty layout). But i left them in, incase they messed something up.
The content of boot on my manjaro ssd
You have to delete /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
. That file will exist because you interrupted the update process.
rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
Just found that on the wiki as well. Followed the instructions after that and now it boots again. Thanks for the help.
