I like shounen romances but don't like how all the serious ones seem to have that almost rape scene (like in I's) or the serious love rival that shows up in later chapters like (like in every single damn one.) I don't mind a love rival, but nothing to serious, as I hate when characters who've been crazy about each other are so easily swayed by someone who just shows up, ruins the sense of devotion, and makes the entire long drawn out build up to a possible relationship kind of seem stupid to me. So anything like this, just completely light-hearted comedy/romance? Also, sorry for the all caps thing, I just know thought at someone will see the title and post something they think the stories are similar. I would post similar reads but I don't think I've read anything exactly like this before. Thanks. ________________ Favorite Manga: Yu Yu Hakusho Mx0 Midori no Hibi That is all.

Thanks, my fault, I'm really picky... well not really, I've just read a ton of manga already. ________________ Favorite Manga: Yu Yu Hakusho Mx0 Midori no Hibi That is all.
