________________

donmai princess it's just a comedy, but the male lead definitely has his work cut out for him getting the girl

I think Suzuka would be good. The main character is kind of an idiot (literally, hes stupid) but he falls in love with the girl at first sight. It is really sweet at parts, but kinda depressign at others. I almost cried during this one, and I never cry.

i would say H2O

mustn't forget 100% perfect girl.

I'll give you my protection
Moe kare
Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu
Sonna Koe Dashicha Iya!
Love Celeb
Dekiai Paradox
Forbidden Wedding


________________

I guess Skip Beat would fit the criteria as well.

I defiantly second Special A, I'm no Angel, and Tokyo Crazy Paradise

wow how many!! i see tenyou tenge is a must read so i'll read it, but wow don't know what to read next...THANKS EVERYONE
i have enough manga for a while now, but if someone still knows manga that i have to read please tell me
thanks

Lovey Dovey

this one also fits your description

Stroke Material made me laugh so much. Only one volume. Though the guy is rather dumb, which I know you don't like. But the girl's smart.

i know exactly what u looking for. School Rumble..granted that male char is pretty dumb, but it a good manga nonetheless.

Edit : i forgot about Love Monster. this one got a cool guy that work towards gaining his love one. though it doesnt seem that hard to me..

The only one that fits your description that it's not still quoted here would be Bokura ga ita, the only problem is that the girl falls in love first.

But the boy is strong, sometimes mean, sometimes sweet, sometimes has to work hard to keep the relationship, etc.

What I like in Trivial Pursuit style. Pick your category:

Well I can think of only these:
Red River
Ardour
Cynical Orange

Other than that I second Tokyo Crazy Paradise, Skip Beat, Stroke Material, Love Monster and Special A. These manga really fit your description.

But Moe kare and Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu DO NOT come even close to what you want unless you like mean a****lishguys.

Suki ni Naru Made Matte really fits Ur description

well its not like its rare. yeah some boys usually do.
it all depends on who you're talking about.
guys usually have the bigger approach.
some girls would be tooo shy to walk up to a guy.
but girls know the effects of love when they watch a drama. so some are more careful.
guys falling in love at first sight.
girls are usually after a while
