I'm looking for a romance manga where the girl or boy DOES NOT fall in love at first sight or because of a weak sauce reason like "he helped her with something so now she's crazy about him". I'm looking for a romance where it develops slowly and when they do fall in love it's because of some substantial reason. Also it doesn't have to be a romance manga.

Examples:
Angel Densetsu Ryoko Koiso falls in love with Seiichirō Kitano after fighting him and learns about his true personality.

Pink Lady
Fredward-Shi no Ahiru is a realistic manga
Alexandrite childhood friends and romance develop slowly
Bara no Tame ni awesome! If only you can ignore the arts
Sunadokei good read and kinda sad. Not necessarily saying that this is sad. I just think they don't deserve the hardship they've through
Cat Street for sure!
Kare Kano
Nodame Cantabile surprisingly one of the best couples I've known. Nodame may fall for Chiaki senpai first but Chiaki took his time to finally love Nodame back. So maybe?
Koucha Ouji slow romance that's why it took lots of volume before they finally realized they're in love...
Kimi ga Uso o Tsuita she doesn't even realize it

Gokusen? The romance is on a slow build throughout the whole manga.

Yeah Emma seems pretty interesting and I'm thinking of watching the anime of Nodame Cantabile instead of reading it.

I suggest the live-action instead for Nodame smile yeah def go for any other media that will help you to hear the sound as well because Nodame is a music manga after all biggrin
