I'm looking for some Schoolkids/Magic series either licensed or not, romance and/or comedy is a plus, I've seen the following allready

Ah! My Goddess
Asagiri no Miko
Da Capo
Denshin Mamotte Shugogetten
Happy World
Kanon

So basically I'm looking for something similar to AMG or Asagiri no Miko

All suggestions are appreciated

Well, there's always the recent magical girl series Futari wa Pretty Cure, which has a lot of the episodes taking place at school. Also, i haven't seen it, but you could give Ultra Maniac a shot.

Psychic Academy

its school settings, abit of drama, romance, "magic" powers unless you want to consider psychic powers in the same category

I think Full Moon wo Sagashite and Ultra maniac is very nice .Especially Full Moon wo Sagashite is a heart-stirring story.
Ultra Maniac is a relaxing story. Both stories are about magic and schoolkids.

well i dont know about a combination of both, but the entire Slayers series is a great magic series, its licensed

For licenced stuff, Mahou Tsukai Tai (aka Magic Users' Club) is pretty good. It's deeper than it seems, although not by much. Also, you might like Fruits Basket if the magic isn't so important.

If the school part isn't a priority, Puchi Puri Yuushi is an option (and it's also unlicenced). It takes place in a fantasy world, but there is a school... sort of... alternatively, Stellvia of the Universe doesn't have the magic, being set in space, but it does have school.

Popotan has only two episodes that are mainly set in a school, but damn they're good. The series itself is pretty much a fanservice show (albeit one with a surprisingly good plot), though.

Seconding Ultra Maniac and Full Moon wo Sagashite. The first is rather lighthearted and simple fun, while the second is a bit deeper and serious, but still fun.

I haven't seen Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch yet. It looks like it has some school parts in it, but I'm not sure.

If all else fails, there's always Card Captor Sakura.

EDIT: Oh yeah, you've already seen Da Capo. Sorry.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, judging on the series mentioned I think I'll try Ultra Maniac and Full Moon Wo Sagashite.

one word MABURAHO!!!! - it's recently been licenced in North America so animesuki won't list the fansubs. Of course you could watch it in japanese, spanish or french...
