i want to read a good and/or popular shounen manga with action/fighting. typical shounen jump stuff! i am reading a bunch but i want to read more... i don't really care if there is romance as long as it's not dominating the plot. oh and comedy is a super plus!

One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, HITMAN Reborn, Gintama, Claymore... stuff like that haha

i'm not interested in sports manga (Eyeshield) or game manga (YGO or Hikaru no Go).

The farther down the least I feel they get less jumpish
Fairy Tail
Arata Kangatari
Psyren
Beelzebub
Erementar Gerad
The Legend of Maian
D.Gray-man
The Breaker
Sekirei
plus more if you need it

second Fairy Tail and D. Gray-man

Fairy Tail is Naruto-ish, and D. Gray-man is a little darker, but it's also a very classic shounen. For this one, I'd suggest watching the anime, because in my opinion, it's better.

Rurouni Kenshin is probably the best samurai historical shounen ever. Just a classic.

InuYasha is also a classic. You've probably already read it, but it's just great and unique, filled with fantasy and fights and awesome villains. Pretty epic. You just have to get past the first couple chapters or so.

1/2 Prince is pretty good. About a girl who is a guy in a virtual reality fantasy game. Most of the story takes place within the game where she (or he) is an elf warrior who becomes super strong and popular, etc. It's kind of fun.

Edit: Wow, I say classic alot, don't I? smile

By the way, these are all very popular manga.

second Rave has romance but done really well, also has stupid gag moments but don't let that deter you. a really good manga.

Great Thread!! You almost HAVE to read these if you like that genre:

-Fairy Tail
-Psyren (it won't look like it in the beginning but it has amazing fights)
-Veritas
-The breaker (still haven't finished it but I like it so far)
-Kekkaishi (it's a little big and it takes a bit but it has very good fights and also a good story)
-Rurouni Kenshin
-Dragonball (obviously lol)
-Historys Strongest Disciple Kenichi (it's more about martial arts and I don't like it that much but it fits in your request)
-Fullmetal Alchemist (I'm surprised no one said this one before...)

If you need more just say something, these are some but there are others which I don't really like but fit in your request.
