Well, I'm looking for a completed romance shoujo manga with no tragic ends, ecchi, hentai, yuri or yaoi. I'm not looking for anything particularly long - preferably a manga within 30 chapters or less. I would also like onehots.

Umm, for the art style and overall feel of the manga, I'd really like it if it were something similar to these:

Kamisama Hajimemashita
Akagami no Shirayukihime
Strobe Edge
Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
Faster than a Kiss
Reimei no Arcana
Oresama Teacher
Gakuen Alice
Mademoiselle Butterfly

Those and other works from Motomi Kyousuke, Tanaka Meca, Mitsuki Kako are personal favorites, in terms of plot and art.

Your help would be greatly appreciated. )

Sarashi Asobi
Kingyo Sou
Mekakushi no Kuni
Hana no Namae

I'm not great about matching art styles, but these should have no tragic ends, non-ecchi, non-hentai, non-yuri/yaoi, and not span more than 5 volumes:

Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen
Jun-ai Sensation
Yume Chu
Sakura Zensen (there is a tragedy on the early part of the series, but the end isn't tragic)
Hanatsukihime
7 Jikanme Rhapsody
24 Colors

________________

@Lorska: I read the other two but I'm gonna take a shot at Sarashi Asobi and Mekakushi no Kuni. )
@Niche: I've read the first story of Hanazakari de koi shiteru a few months back, I'm gonna read the other chappies. ) Osaerarenai... I think I'm gonna read it again just for the heck of it. Last time I picked it up I think it was during my Freshman year in high school... ))
@fiolaplath: I've read Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen, 7 Jikanme Rhapsody, and 24 Colors. I'm gonna read Hanatsukihime next ) I'll try to finish Yume-Chu tonight. )

Thanks for the suggestions peeps! ))
