I'm running out of options, as unbelievable as it sounds, on what kind of manga books to buy/borrow. Any suggestions?

I prefer reading shojo manga, but if the plots good I'll read it! biggrin.gif

I got the perfect one for you if you enjoy shojo: Ayashi no Ceres!
It's my absolute favorite!!!

wub.gif I got the manga and the series on DVD.

The American title you find it under in stores is: Ceres, Celestial Legend, written by Yuu Watase

But I also have to agree with everyone else: Chobits and Angel Sanctuary are awesome too! Chobits is my second favorite ^_^

I personally like Ayashi no Ceres. :]

I want to list what's good, even if others have said it too:
  • Fruits Basket
  • Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou aka Kare Kano: His and Her Circumstances
  • Hanazakari no Kimitachi E (Hana Kimi)
  • Ayashi no Ceres
  • Kodomo no Omocha (Kodocha!)
  • Mekakushi no Kuni - It's romantic and makes your heart race... This is really an AMAZING series and although the ending seems slightly like a cliffhanger, it's amazing that you won't care :] The ending's still good, but it makes people yearn for more...
  • Marmalade Boy - It's kind long... Bleh.. but it's cute :]
  • Full Moon Wo Sagashite - I cried! It's so sad but soo cute and sweet at the same time. You'll fall in love with all the characters because they all have a story to tell...
  • Kare Made Love KM - Really cute :]
That's all it for now. There's so much more that I've read that are soooo good but argh lol I can't remember that much. *sigh* I read most of them online so yea lol but they're still really good so yea ;x

Hana-Kimi has a good story line, very funny too. I second this manga. Same goes for Hot Gimmick and DN Angel.

OMG LAND OF THE BLINDFOLDED! Actually, I call it Mekakushi no Kuni (Original Title) or well.. I heard it's also called Invisible World? Dunno. That one is AMAZING... I laughed, I cried... I've read scanlations on it, but I've read all of it and although well sorry for spoiling it but the ending was kind of.. well.. unexpected... Literally.. I wish it didn't end at that point.. I wanted more!

If you're really into spiritual and emotional expressions, you should really read Mekakushi no Kuni/Land of the Blindfolded/Invisible World. It's an amazing read and their words.. it really just touches your heart. <33 Arou.. blush.gif
