I'm looking for some manga that have to deal with the male lead falling in love first.
I'd like the male lead NOT to be weak or wimpy to the point the female lead walks all over him.
Decent artwork


I'd prefer if the male lead was popular and good looking


Thanks in advance!!!

Red River (I think)

Gokusen

Fruits Basket

Kimi wa Pet

Skip Beat

Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen

Last Game, this one is the first one come to my mind.
Warau Kanoko-sama and Koi dano Ai dano, the prquel and sequel, superb!
Nijiiro Days, well, I think the male lead isn't really wimpy, actually he made a move with his friends help. No time waste to try this one
Akagami No Shirayuki-hime, It might fits too.

and as Blique says, I recommended Fruit Basket too

Nineteen, Twenty One
Horimiya

I think Akuma to Love Song had that plot. I don't remember perfectly, since it was a while back.

When I said 'death' before 'dishonor', I meant alphabetically.

Imagine what would happen if there were no more hypothetical situations.

Hmm,
