Hai my dear friends,
Recently i am reading lot of mangas but not satisfying somehow. Out of all the manga..these are three are the best that i enjoyed a lot.so i am looking for something similar.. in the manner of story/approch/ setup/comedy/plot/flavor/perfection/characters/development etc... Itazura na kiss High-school debut His and Her circumstances.
please recommend me by understanding what i want. A proper setup for the story.it should be interesting. Focus on one particular couple. Conceptual drive. interesting characters.
please recommend me..it would be a great help to me.

Hai all and whitespade
I am sorry for giving late reply especially this much late. what i mean by conceptual drive..means.. story has to move on by having a concept.i hope i should explain it detailed..let me take my time.
Itazura na kiss -- it is one of the best examples of conceptual drive.In this,a dull,poor student is in love with top student.She confessed to him and got rejected.Now She still trying to hard to get him.This is what i call concept. She is trying for him..this storyline moves the story forward.wherever the story goes..the concept is same.. High school debut -- it is also one of another example.In this,a girl want a boyfriend and she wants to fall in love.For that she is trying hard.Now she meets the perfect coach for her.The story goes on this concept that..she wants to fall in love.. here i am calling the drive as conceptual drive.
13th boy -- it is also one of that kind.In the first scene.she got rejected.But she dont want to leave this loke earlier loves.She want him at any rate.So she starts to find out the reason why he rejected her and all.here also i call it a conceptual drive.
what is a conceptual drive? Story progression should have a concept. ( why the story is going on like this only? the concept explains the answer for this)
I hope now everyone did get what i want. please suggest me something with a conceptual drive.
I am giving here more examples. 1.A boy rejectes a girl saying some reason..Now the girl is trying to become that.. 2.A boy confessed to a girl.But girl rejected him.Now the boy is moving on other girl.But the first girl feeling that she might have rejected him.Now the girl is again trying..
within the first and second chapter of the story..the concept has to come and it should be understood all.

For conceptual drive, did you want couple growth or any type of growth (such as character growth)? Ao Haru Ride Crimson Hero Cat Street Kimi ni Todoke Liar x Liar Yume Miru Taiyou Tenshi Nanka Ja Nai Taiyou no Ie Strobe Edge Skip Beat Lovely Complex Venus in Love Suki tte Ii Na yo I hope these fit.

As soon as I saw your examples, I thought oh! Lovely Complex! but I've been beaten to it. I'm not really a light comedy romance shoujo kind of person(I prefer tragedies) but I've read a few that I really loved: Nineteen, Twenty-One- it's been a while since I read this, but I can tell you it's about a girl who skipped two years of her life due to an accident that led to a coma. After waking up, she has a hard time coping with her life because of the coma until she meets this nineteen year old boy who lets her experience what she missed... With their mutual love for cats. Kimi wa Petto "You are My Pet"- an adorable manga, though its josei!, about a woman with high standards who comes home to a young man in a box. This young man then becomes her pet and keeps her company at home, while she tries to keep this a secret from her coworkers who think she has an actual dog and from her boyfriend especially!
I tried to write a quick summary for both, but it's not very good XD I loved both mangas dearly and hopefully you enjoy them =)
