Slightly different school romance
(2 posts, 281 views) Posted: 39d 0h, 51m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Just testing the waters here. A lot of school romance is about the students. Sometimes the teachers.
But what about the principal? Or anybody else indirectly involved with the school (non-teaching staff, parents of students, etc.)?
I would prefer something fully transla ...

Cross-school romance
(2 posts, 290 views) Posted: 186d 20h, 36m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
I'm looking for something that deals with romance between characters that attend different schools. Main criteria being that they are in different schools (or they started in the same school, but one of them moved to another school).
Optional: It could also dea ...

Embarrassing past
(1 posts, 252 views) Posted: 210d 22h, 52m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Okay, so in light of the recently released "Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!" anime, I'm beginning to get interested in manga that may deal with similar premises.
Anything to do with a character trying to hide an embarrassing or shameful part of the ...

An extended "epilogue"
(4 posts, 337 views) Posted: 231d 3h, 23m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Suppose that there's a manga. It could be about anything. It had its big heyday, it brought upon a lot of laughter & tears, drama & suspense, anything to keep going, and it finally reached a conclusion. If it's a romance series, maybe the protag ...

Recycled material/characters
(16 posts, 1111 views) Posted: 373d 1h, 3m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Basically, I'm looking for manga where the author reuses material from his/her previous works. The story should be different, though.
Right now, the best example I can think of is Kimi no Iru Machi. The setting is the same as Suzuka, and Spoiler (mouse over ...

Equal opportunity harem
(8 posts, 428 views) Posted: 386d 3h, 10m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Is that even possible? I've read too many harem/romantic comedies in my lifetime, but what they all have in common is that they're always heavily biased towards one love interest.
Is it possible for every contender to have a fair chance? Even if the m ...

Older female/younger male romance (specific)
(4 posts, 1284 views) Posted: 423d 2h, 30m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
I already know that there's a tag for that, but I want to narrow it down even further.
-I don't want the difference to be too small (for example, a kouhai/senpai relationship with only a 1-year difference)
-But it also can't be too big (for example, a no ...

Welp, don't I look stupid, there's an actual tag with the same wording.
Thank you kind contributor, I think I'll be okay with what you've given me.
If there's a moderator present, I would like to request for this thread to be locked. ...

Can I get some romance series with any of the following pairings:
Employee x Boss
Co-workers (employee x employee)
Employee x Customer/Client
Any profession is fine, but I would prefer "normal" professions (customer service, manual labor, offic ...

Retired protagonists
(4 posts, 496 views) Posted: 518d 20h, 1m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
I would like recommendations for manga where the story starts off with a main character, but later gets retired and replaced by a different character.
I use the term "retired" very loosely here, as I'm perfectly okay with the "old" pro ...

Fantasy Moon Scans Taking Requests

Cromartie High School:
Very hilarious manga that isn't currently being translated (254 out of 335 chapters already translated; still more than enough left to keep you guys busy).
REC:
Despite what its status may be, no one's doing anything with it (latest sc ...

Author makes a big mistake
(0 posts, 227 views) Posted: 544d 3h, 29m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Alright, this time, I'm looking for manga where the author makes a mistake in his/her work. Nothing art-related, I'm looking for something more along the lines of character, setting, plot, etc. The bigger the mistake, the better. Even better if the author h ...

Dropped Manga/Manhwa?
(13 posts, 1413 views) Posted: 556d 2h, 39m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Cromartie High School: It was officially licensed at one point, but they stopped at volume 12 (chapters 1-252), then the company went kaput. Beyond that, only chapters 253 and 254 have been scanlated. There is a total of 335 chapters.
REC: Technically, its scanlation ...

I'm looking for manga with a story where something goes wrong, but the end result is favorable/not bad.
Examples:

Unimportant character gains significance
(4 posts, 456 views) Posted: 571d 6h, 33m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
It's a long shot, but why the heck not?
So how about a manga with a character who plays an insignificant role (or was supposed to), but over time, he/she gains a great deal of development and eventually becomes part of the main cast? The less important th ...

Non-sequitur humor
(4 posts, 514 views) Posted: 575d 10h, 5m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
Basically, I want humor where the punchline is very different/unrelated to the set-up of the joke and beyond a typical audience's expectations. Needless to say, most of what I'm looking for would more than likely fall under "comedy".
A goo ...

Lies eventually becoming truth
(10 posts, 1146 views) Posted: 594d 11h, 58m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
I'm looking for manga where something false (such as a lie, a rumor, an exaggeration, etc.) eventually becomes true.
So for example, it could be a romance manga where a guy pretends to be a girl's boyfriend to protect her from creepy dudes who ...

Friendly exes
(3 posts, 485 views) Posted: 653d 9h, 43m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
I'm looking for a manga where a main character has former partners, but is still friendly with them after the break-up. I don't care whether they break up mid-plot, or already broken up from the beginning, as long as they're still friendly with each ...

Large gaps between adaptations
(5 posts, 431 views) Posted: 710d 4h, 32m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
When a manga is adapted to anime (or any other medium, for that matter), it takes a few years, usually 2, maybe 4. I'm looking for some manga that have been adapted to anime much later than typical.
Examples:
Akagi (manga: 1992; anime: 2005)
Kaiji (manga ...

Unconventional/Ambiguous morals
(4 posts, 622 views) Posted: 728d 5h, 53m ago by 8-3 in I'm Looking For...
In a lot of manga, especially action/shounen manga, the protagonist is a hero who fights evil.
I would like a different twist to that.
I want something where the protagonist is blatantly evil, and the "bad guys" are the real heroes.
Or the main conflict of the sto ...

I can easily see my request having little to no yield, but everyone's here to help, right?
So yeah, I'm looking for manga that deals with themes of interracial dating/romance. It can be any genre or demographic, as long as there is some focus on the top ...
