im looking for more unusual shonen manga >_>!
preferably something with a darker tone. something like "shingeki no kyojin" for example.
horror and mature stuff is ok!

-there shouldnt be too much teenage-angst.
-should have a more or less solid plot. (any plot at all)
-plus points if the plot is developing fast biggrin
-art doesnt matter, i'm looking for story here cool

It's not really a requirement, I don't have any lists. Maybe I should look into it, since I forget a lot of the manga that I've read until I see the titles again.

Not dark.

played tsukihime vn, i guess its the same?
already reading witch hunter.
pandora hearts, aria and MTNN don't really fit the requirements? (i wouldnt really know)
chrono crusade.... i always thought it looked really generic, but maybe ill give it a try.

EDIT: wait, you said its not really dark... is CC generic or notconfused


@ alexyz0:
reading alive (well im putting it on hold right now, did the mangaka finish it?)

My 2 cents:

Ares (manhwa, not manga)
Chrno Crusade (seconded, someone posted it while I was writing)
Mirai Nikki
Spiral
Vampire Juujikai

You should probably read seinen if you want darker stuff. eyes

I guess Chrno Crusade could be called generic.

Pandora Hearts hardly. Aria definitely not. MTNN kind of does.

Definitely.

Seconding Bio-Meat: Nectar (I thought it was seinen.)
Seconding Mirai Nikki
Seconding Ares
Seconding Alive: Saishuu Shinkateki Shounen (I remember it now ^^)

Others, I'm not too sure.

These are all good except Bloody Monday, which I didn't find dark, but whatever.
And Banya, but that's just because I didin't like the manga.
