|
|
Im tired of reading shounen manga. Now I want to start reading shoujo. I really liked and Kodocha, D.N. angel, Fruits Baskets, Kare Kano and parfait tic. Could anyone recommend me some more good shoujo mangas like these? Complete or incomplete, it doesn't mattter. I don't like Basara and X btw.
I could not find any other simular topics. But if there are, this topic can be closed. |

What is your favourite shojou manga?
I personally like CLAMP' works like Card Captor Sakura, Tokyo Babylon and Chobits etc.
Was going to lock this thread but A-Source does need more suggestions on good unlicensed shoujo manga to host.  _________________ What's yours is mine, what's mine is still mine. |

Many poeple in that thread also suggested shounen like ichigo 100%, Ai yoti aoshi and ah my goddes .
Ah, i forgot to mention Aishiteruze Baby. Altough the story is quite short, but its fun to read and that little girl is just to kawai. |

Shoujos... I would definitely recommend Tanemura Arina sensei's works if you liked mangas such as DNAngel and Kare Kano...
It's such a shame that Full Moon wo Sagashite got licensed... it was one of the best ones out there in my opinion. One of my all times favourites though has to be Hanakimi or Hanazakari no Kimi tachi E... it's a classic! Although the mangas that I've recommended are licensed, I believe they are still available for downloading on boxtorrents.com. Check them out!  |

Never Give Up (done by shoujomagic www.shoujomagic.net--shoujomagic does quite a bit of good stuff ) is a fun one--the main female character looks a bit too manly to be with the guy she loves, and so is trying to become more feminine, but it doesn't quite work all the time--and it's got a similar feel to Hanakimi.
Penguin Brothers is another neat one (http://mangadownloads.cjb.net) has it online even though it says it's offline. Multiple guys, one girl, problems with school, general laughs and romance, and it's got a similar feel to Parfait Tic.
Those would probably the ones with the most similarities to the ones you've mentioned--try shoujomagic's site especially since there's a TON of stuff and it's pretty easy to get it off of IRC. _________________ One of the old fogies of A-S. Sheesh. I'm not even old. |

shoujo literally means girl, but how we use it is different. Our definition is probably "for girls" or "anime/manga appointed to girls"
shounen has the same definition, but it's "for boys"
I'm a huge fan of shoujo manga, unfortunately, I haven't been reading much lately...I haven't even been watching much anime lately either! Anyway,
licensed Fruits Basket
Kodomo no Omocha (Kodocha)
Imadoki
Hot Gimmick
Girl got Game
Kill me, Kiss Me
Parfait Tic
Mekakushi no Kuni
Marmalade Boy
Hana Yori Dango
Zettai Kareshi
Minto na Bokura
unlicensed - a good site to go to is www.shoujomagic.net Global Garden
BxB Brothers
Love Monster
Ichiban!
Kimi wa Boku no Mono
I.N.V.U
Ichigo Channel
Penguin Brothers
Sora Sora
Yoru Made Matenai (I love Ohta Saki)
Partner (Miho Obana)
EDIT: I wouldn't count I"s or Pastel as shoujo

Best Shoujo Manga's in my opinion are...
Good Morning Call
Aishiteruze Baby
Minto Na Bokura
Marmalade Boy (Drags on a bit though...)
Kodomo No Omocha
Kare Kano
and stuff along those lines. |

Thnx for the recommendations . I got also 2 more recommendations. Power is very simular to Hanakimi. Girl crossdresses as a boy and joins a basketball team for boys.
Gekka no kimi is also pretty good. Its about a guy that can't be near a girl. If a girl touches him, he's shaking like hell. |
