I'm looking for stuff more mature or "darker" in concept than that, however. Really any sci-fi is fine, from mecha, aliens, evil labs, etc as long as they have a dark concept and either ecchi or mature tags. I could just search under those tags, but I'm not sure what's good, so I'm hoping fans of that particular type of manga could point some out. Thanks! ________________ In a world where troubled young hearts are besieged by evil spirits, only one can wield love as a weapon: the God of Conquests, Keima Katsuragi.

She's looks pretty fierce. ________________ In a world where troubled young hearts are besieged by evil spirits, only one can wield love as a weapon: the God of Conquests, Keima Katsuragi.

Seems to be a series of oneshots though? ________________ "The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown"

Seems to be a series of oneshots though? Thanks. I would do the same, but would rather get actual recommendations rather than a list of everything carrying the tag, that's all. I'll check those out anyway though! Can't hurt to try. Quote from halohero Try Freezing, it should fit most of those areas. I've heard of that manga before a few times. Very ecchi. I read the first few chapters, and it looks promising. Quote from Draconic You should try Hagane as well. I gave this one a try too. It's pretty good, nice dialogue and the main heroine is cute. I look forward to seeing where this one goes.

Cyberpunk + Dystopia + Post-Apocalyptic? Good combination. ________________ In a world where troubled young hearts are besieged by evil spirits, only one can wield love as a weapon: the God of Conquests, Keima Katsuragi.

Boogiepop Doesn't Laugh a little sci-fi mixed with some fantasy. It's pretty crazy.the reason I'm recommending it, is because the series as a whole including the books and the anime make it lean more into the sci-fi genre. Gantz duh Junk - Record of the Last Hero think sentai if it happened in the real world. Mardock Scramble Zipang don't know if you can classify mysterious time traveling incident as hard sci-fi. But it's a good read. A Certain Scientific Railgun it's in the name even. Battle Angel Alita Definitely second Eden: It's an Endless World! that shit is legit. Anyway, sci-fi/ecchi is not a very common genre. ________________ Sarcasm just doesn't work over the internet.
