While growing old and waiting for Skip Beat scans to come out, I'm in desperate need of something similar to read. Cat Street (not very similar, but is something i was reading as well) seems to stop altogether (the scanlation, that is). Can someone recommend something similar to those two? i.e.:
- funny, refreshing (Skip Beat was REALLY refreshing. It's like Glass Mask w/ more humor and whack and w/o the dramatic WTF XD)
- dramatic in a good way (Cat Street = Hana yori dango = full of win cat street is not over the top dramatic and is more subtle than HYD but still dramatic in my book XD)

While I'm at it: people should all go read NODAME CANTABILE. The best thing ever since...well, Skip Beat XD

p.s.: i have averse feelings towards anything Yuu Watase, Ai Yazawa, or Chie Shinohara, so none of those please XD I also need to finish Fruits Basket, Lovely Complex, Ouran, and Kare Kano, so something different would be great XD XD Koukou Debut was good until chapter 17...so that won't do either

Sorry to be a picky bi.tch T________T

Thank you <3

Oh, and:

i remember i tried to read H2 a while ago, but it got kinda boring..

Adachi is THE MAN XD maybe you can try other series, like ROUGH? or his recent one, Katsu! ? ADACHI IS THE MAN (he is, really)

Maybe you will like Matsuri Special by Kamio Youko, same mangaka of Cat Street. Maybe Beauty Pop, Beauty is the Beast, and Hana Kimi might perk your interest, although I don't think they are "dramatic" enough (dramatic to me is works by Souryo Fuyumi, but her works are generally not under comedy). I think the manga that fits funny and dramatic is Kimi wa Petto (be warned it's mature as well).

[insertusernamehere]

^ wa, thanks so much! I didn't know she came out with a new series im reading it - it's great! Always trust Kamio sama <3
i was reading Beauty Pop last year up to where the scans were...I guess I should catch up. It's cute, but didn't impress me much.
The first few volumes of Hana Kimi had terrible art, but the drama was quite entertaining so I should get past the beginning and read on...? HYD had the same problem. Kamio improved a lot!

Souryo Furumi! I read MARS and loved it! I don't know if any of her other works are around. Will try to find

I saw the cover for Kimi wa Petto long ago while looking up the drama (with Jun), but the art didn't appeal to me. I heard that the story was interesting but...yeah...

random recommendations: HONEY AND CLOVER is awesome XD everybody must have read it already by now, but it doesn't hurt to bring it up

Wallflower was great until chapter...59 something? I haven't caught up, but if it stops dragging on by now, it should be good again very funny and different.

anime:
blood+
darker than black
gundam 00
wallflower
nodame cantabile (live action is also good)
prince of tennis

I loved Great Teacher Onizuka

perhaps "wallflower"? it has that "weird girl" vibe... i agree with beauty pop too.

I also recommend this anime. Brings comedy to a whole new level.

[Millou]

[hungrycollegeboy]

Hell yea!!! Eyeshield 21 FTW!!! Hiruma and his gunz

[jhealizzie]

can someone recommend me an anime like ouran high school host club && gakuen heaven? about elite school && hot guys!

and

can someone also recommend me a manga like absolute boyfriend && B.O.D.Y? with hot boyfriends

no fantasy, supernatural && stuff please!


thanks in advance!

[kisstherain_]

^ You can try Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (also known as Perfect Girl Evolution, Wallflower) and School Rumble. Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge is a complete different story with Ouran High School Host Club, but it's a great comedy/romance/shoujo/horror (?) story. Actually, I'm not sure about the 'horror' part... but I guess it does count as a horrorfic genre story because of the main girl, Sunako. She's cute but creepy at the same time. LOL. I love that manga. If you love Ouran High School Host Club, you'll love this. I'm sure it won't let you down. =)

But since you said anime, Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge won't be the best one to start off with. I wasn't so impressed with the anime because of the drawings. Plus, Sunko's chibi's were kind of annoying. But you can still give it a shot, why not, it could be different for every people depending on their own taste. ^^; Who knows, it could just be me too. But imo, the manga is WHOLE alot better than the anime. A WHOLE ALOT.

thanks thanks!
well, i both like anime && manga.
it's just that, if the story is short, i'd rather watch than read.
haha!
enwei,
i'll read that.
thanks again!

oh..

does it have kissing scenes?

[kisstherain_]

^ YES! LOL, sorry for the caps lock. But yes, it does. I won't tell you the exact story of what happened (because that'd be spoiling), but at first it started off with a ping pong game battle and they kissed by an accident. But as the story keeps on going on, there will be a very exciting kissing scene (of course not by accident). :3 There's only 25 episodes of the anime... but the latest manga recently just released at Janurary 3rd. I love this series.

anyways, Enjoy reading! ^^

[jhealizzie]

^^

whoah!
alot kissing scenes?
kyaaa!!
i love it!!!!
i'll definitely read that.
after reading moe kare.

edit : i heard that wallflower is ongoing.? arg! it's very sad to wait. i can't wait. haha!

[ANNASHEE]

does anyone have any recommendations for anime movies? just like a one time movie, not a series or anything.

[yh4ever]

TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGAAN
it's one awesome anime...
it really teaches u to never doubt urself
always believe
never give up
and determination is the key to success

i found it really inspirational
and i LOVED it

HIGURASHI
it's like super dark and evil and stuff
but if u think about it
it has so much meaning
to stereotyping and peer pressure
and y we do things the way we do
our beliefs and stuff
but it's super morbid and gore.. kinda like extreme gantz
but i loved it too
(manga is less scary than anime.. cuz anime has all those crazy laughs.. not recommended for ppl hu get nightmares easily)

[MarkXD]

I'm sure this has been mention before but watch Code Geass. This anime is a master piece.

If you haven't already, go and watch Grave of the Fireflies.
Prepare some tissues while your at it because you'll definitely need it.

You should also watch Sword of a Stranger which recently came out. It's a very good samurai movie.
