(btw, I listed these manga from the ones I liked best to the ones I hated the most) So here comes my question: Is there anything that is anywhere near as good as Girl Friends? While I'm asking for Shoujo Ai, you're free to recommend me normal romance or Shounen Ai since I'm open to that. Some titles I enjoyed include Orange Marmalade, Haru yo Koi and Karakuri Odetto. Ones I definitely hated include Kaichou wa Maid-sama, Toradora, Houou Gakuen Misoragumi and DearS.

Nice desu ne Member 1:28 am, Oct 8 2012 Posts: 820	My favorite shoujo-ai is Husky and Medley which I recommend to you. It has the whole "popular girl and regular girl are friends then realize they are in love" trope. It's based on a true story and encompasses a lot of 4chan/2ch lingo so it's smart to be familiar with that. Also, Prism (Higashiyama Shou) had a great run. ________________ Past Signatures = My tumblr "Nhóm này không có xe tăng" "Oh my god...she's Mexican."

Quote from Lady de Ferval Then there's Sasameki Koto and Aoi Hana. Unfortunately, my attention span is too short to follow anything monthly (Aoi Hana) and I'll wait until Sasameki Koto gets scanlated to the end. I'll check out the rest of the manga you mentioned, thanks ^^

These are all on Dynasty Reader: Rock it, GIRL!! - It has potential, only 3 chapters. Cigarettes != Chocolate Ohana Holoholo Wife to be Lonesome Echo Lonely Wolf, Lonely Sheep For You, My Beloved Under the Ceiling 4 Mermaid Line We're Aiming For Love Now Present Forever Girls First Love The Flower And The Star Girl's Ride Cirque Arachne Notes From The Garden Of Lilies Another Kiss A Knife Edge Girl As for shounen-ai Negative-kun to Positive-kun Bokura ni Matsuwaru Etcetera And a lot more from spectrum nexus. Also liked Tomodachi no Hanashi Dramacon Bara wo Karasu Te de Boku wo Dake And yeah I love, love Immortal Rain. Kimi wa no petto, and paradise kiss I feel you might like.
