I'm intressted in reading a "Pure" romance manga
(Pure as in its all Love about being with the person complete trust not Lust or Jealousy or "earthly desire's), no subtext, no sexual desires for each other but i don't mind sensual bond between them, and neither of them should be ashamed of their feelings.

I want the lead to be male, mature or smart/clever or "Distant" from people or Indiffrent to "Human's (society).
The spirit/ghost is a Female around 18 or Older (Not a little child)
The Male lead is the ONLY one that can see the spirit, why doesn't matter as long as he is the only one, as in Hikaru no Go.
The male lead is not allowed to be a wimp (nor an idiot (would prefer smart/intellegent))
Mx0 has good feeling to it but theres no romance and
Spoiler (highlight to view)
she is seen by others
but the hole trust and spirit-human realtionship is wonderful and Lead is smart/clever.

And I would love if the story starts of before they meet so taht you can follow their relationship from the begining

It doesn't matter what Time Space the story is settled in, no if it's fantasy/action or Sci-Fi/Drama.


Okey I know its kinda specific so if you want to recommend something that doesn't fit some of the requirement then please state what parts it doesn't fitt.

Thanks for reading.

id fits your description but
Spoiler (highlight to view)
the character is physically more like female, although he is male, and you can't see the spirit partner's physical form until way later in the story. The spirit has crush on the male, but he doesn't notice and it's not mainly based on romance.
More like an action manhwa i guess.

lol, I can't think of any other right now

Itoshi no Kana needs mentioning, but it massively doesn't fit the 'no sexual desires' part. I think it fits pretty much everything else ... but yeah, sex is a fairly large part of their relationship.

Wow, that is specific. Mine don't match exactly I'm afraid.

Aflame Inferno - I'm still reading this so I have no idea how it develops but so far it has a smart non-wimpy guy, a demon spirit which inhabits his body and no sexual desires.

XBlade - Again, I've literally just started this, so this may not fit at all. But there is a girl who turns into a sword involved and so far no sexual desires.

Erementar Gerad - a bit younger than your age limit, I say the look around 15 and I wouldn't call the guy a genius but he's not dumb or wimpy. The girl turns herself into a sword/blade thingy. Other's can see her but she shares a private bond with the guy. No romance in this really, more childlike platonic love.

Sorry I couldn't be more useful. Hope this helps.

I know it's not exactly what you asked but since you're not probably getting a lot of recommendations for this, I'm gonna drop you Ginban Kaleidoscope. The two main differences are that 1) the girl is the main lead and the guy is the ghost and 2) their romance relationship is mainly just hinted. If you like anime I think it's better than manga. I know it's quite different form what you asked, but that all I could come up with.

[m]Koishite?! Kami-sama!![/m] it´s the oneshot released before the world god only knows while the series don´t meet your request, the oneshot does meet many of your wishes( i think)

Thanks once again for the suggestions.

The Oneshot of The World God Only Knows didn't meet the requirements exept te part about the part with that only the lead male could see the female.
Neither the less thanks for your time.

Ginban Kaleidoscope, just like you said, it didn't meet those two requirements (thanks for doing so). However to overall feel to the manga was pretty good though I personally didn't like some of the girls childish behavior.
Still I've added it to my reading list and thanks for the addition.

Just Like you said with your suggestions, they don't really fit the fundamental part of what I'm looking for (Spirit (next to the person)-Human).

If I rember correct (I've read it) XBlade meets the romance requirement, but as the female is a sentinel weapon (living/thinking) it deson't fit.

I'm currently reading Aflame Inferno and doesn't meet the romance requirment nor the relationship requirments, but the male lead is good.

I read Erementar Gerad long ago and droped it because I didn't like it, I'm not sure why but if I remeber correct I think it was because of the "Shounen Setting", and I never remeber it involving a spirit at all.

However I still offer you my thanks since you took the time to reply.

I know, it's hard to find something so specific. wink
Another similar one (if you're interested into it) that I can think of is Kieli. You can pretty much figure out from the description on its main page (so I won't bother to point out the differences) why I didn't suggest it in the first place. There are a good amount of differences from what you asked, but still since you're not probably gonna get loads of stuff to check I can also point that out (fyi I only read the novel, not the manga, and didn't like it very much).


Edit: ouch, I forgot Tasogare Otome x Amnesia (how was that possible?). It started not so long ago so it can go in a totally different direction but I think it's worth to check it out. smile
