Manga like these

[ByakuyaKuchiki]

Only manga I really like are school-life romances.

Here are the ones I've read.


Completed
Doubt!!
The Devil Does Exist

Reading(Not finished because not all are online)
Kare First Love
High School Debut


Can you recommend some like these? (preferably completed but as long as they have a good number of chapters out I will read it)

Mars
W-Juliet
Aishiteruze Baby

[NightSamurai]

Kare Kano and Bitter Virgin seem like they would fit.

[ByakuyaKuchiki]

thanks. any more?

And i odn't really want to read aishiteruze baby. I watched the anime and read the manga from where anime left off to see what else happened, even though I didnt read all of it.



And how much further does Kare Kano go than the anime?

[jedinat]

Bitter Virgin isn't shoujo... and from what little I read it seemed ridiculously depressing. but then, the OP didn't specify shoujo; it's just that all the examples were such.

Chizumi and Fujiomi- old but still pretty entertaining
Dear Mine- the large majority of it is not based in school, but it involves a high school girl
Switch
Beauty Pop- not much romance as yet, but entertaining
Hana Kimi
Fruits Basket
non-shoujo:
Karin
Mysterious Girlfriend X
Midori no Hibi

It goes much further than the anime; the anime covers a bit less than half the manga.

edit:

Spoiler for about Aishiteruze Baby:

there are some differences in the manga besides more content after the anime finishes... the most notable being, I believe, the school trip portion which was cut out of the anime... it involves a boy forcing a kiss on Kokoro and some drama with that... during the trip Kokoro and Kippei sleep together. So yeah there are some significant differences, as there are between many manga and their anime counterparts. I did like the way the anime ended a lot more than the ending in the manga, which was a bit depressing.

Bitter Virgin gives off a very similar feeling to Mars and Kare First Love in my opinion. However, I find Bitter Virgin's male protagonist to be a much more believable and sincere person than those in either of the other manga.

this may be a harem manga but it definitely is in the top 3(if not THE top) of the best harem manga's out there. plus, while the lead is the usual indecisive/perverted guy, he actually has the balls to make firm decision in crucial moments.

[ByakuyaKuchiki]

How different is it from the anime? I watched part of anime long time ago and didnt like it really, but then again I never gave it too mcuh of a chance.


And I read all that was out of bitter virgin and loved it. Looking for a place to read mars.

If a romantic comedy is fine with you, Lovely Complex is one of the best in the market.

[ByakuyaKuchiki]

Unless it goes on much much further than the anime did I am not interested. Loved the anime, but I am not really interested in reading it if it doesnt have alot more story.


Since I tend to prefer animes I am kinda looking for manga without an anime adaption, that is unless the anime ends and leaves much much more story left in manga.

[bbduece]

Suzuka - complete
Ai Kora - on going and really slow subbing
Pastel - on going also slow subbing
Hana Kimi - complete

[ByakuyaKuchiki]

I've seen the suzuka anime so most likely wont read it, at least not for some time(until i've exhausted my supply of other manga I havent watche an anime version of).


And I was planning on reading hana kimi before too long.

thanks, keep them coming.

[bbduece]

Just to let you know; Suzuka anime is only half the story.

the anime covered just a third of the whole story and while the anime version had an open ending, the manga certainly had closure(manaka chose someone in the end)

who?

Spoiler for manga ending:

komiyama.


not! its nishino actually

oh, and the manga art >>>>>> anime art. the anime was done badly, REALLY badly

[bbduece]
