A good shojo? Empty A good shojo?

Post  Kristinestfu Mon Sep 20, 2010 12:19 am

So this really is a serious question this time. <_<
I'm looking for a good shojo esque manga to read.
I've already gone through most of the shojo beat manga.
And whatever else i can find. <_<


So i'm kind of at a loss of what to do next.
All i'm really doing is waiting for the next volume to come out.


Any suggestions on what i should tackle next?
Anime suggestions would be nice too. I've just started watching anime tbh. <_<

Kimi ni Todoke, and Kaichou wa Maid-sama I suppose is a shoujo as well. An older title is Ghost Hunt, it's a lil' different than the usual shoujo.

uhh my recommendation for shojo will always be nodame cantabile it dont know whats in shojo beat so idk if u have seen this or not. i dont really recommend reading it just because the music is too good to pass up.

daughter of the 20 faces was amazing its hard to recommend anything stronger. honestly though its easier if you post some of your favorites cause i can just recommend stuff on that line. and it actually easier that way cause its dont really find some shows to cater to any one demographic

Uh.
My favorite manga....

That would include:
Meru Puri.
Yume Kira Dream Shoppe
Tsubasa resevoir chronicles.
Same celled organism.
And i really can't think of any more than that off the top of my head.

I do really enjoy these though: B.O.D.Y, Black Bird, Vampire Knight, Ouran host club, Beast master.
And i can't think of any more than that. <_<
Really i just went on the shoujo beat website and was like "LOL -LOOKS AT LIST"
And named all the ones i enjoyed the most. Lol?

I definitely suggest GakuenAlice if you haven't read it yet. The storyline is pretty much Shojo-ish; Some other ones that you could look into are: Missile Happy, DNAngel, Kobato, Karin, Fushingi Yugi, Skip Beat!... That's all I can come up with at the moment. I'll see if I can think of some more when I get home tonight. Very Happy

Hope this helps a little.

Lol thanks.
I'll check that out.
I've actually read missile happy and DNangel.
I've tried fushigi yugi and skipbeat and i didn't like it at all tbh.

xD SKip Beat is one of those where you either love it or hate it. Another one that I happened to run across that was very "shojo" ish was a oneshot done by the creator of Maid-sama. If you look on Mangafox under the author, you'll be able to find it. I thought it was pretty cute and sad at the same time.

Missile Happy was a good series that I particularly liked. The last volume was kind of fast-paced though. Then again it was trying to end. lol.

Dengeki Daisy is another I do suggest; As well as Mugen Spiral. That one is only two volumes long and has very good potential for shojou. Very Happy

There was a completed series on Mangafox that I was skimming by and I happened to like it. 24 Colors - Hatsukoi no Palette; Very cute series. I do suggest it. Though it feels like it goes fast at certain parts.

I'm suddenly remembering more titles: YEAH!

If you haven't read: Try reading Venus in Love. That one is very cute. Very Happy So far nine volumes are out in America but it's hard to find online. I have the first four if you would like to read them. Smile Just zip me an email if you're interested.
