Okay, so I have a few requests. Here it goes:

1.I want a gender bender manga where the protagonist gender bends/ cross dresses and incidentally gets to know someone he/she already knew prior to the gender bending or what-not. Whether the characters become lovers in the end or friends doesn't concern me. smile
Some examples of this would be Seiyuu Ka-! and Tomodachi Kara Yoroshiku Desu


2.Iā€™m looking for a good mystery manga with a satisfying ending and likable characters. The story has to be a real page-tuner and keep me hooked! However, I don't mind if the mystery involves multiple cases/events instead of one sole mystery. As this is pretty broad, I would prefer recommendations to manga you specifically liked.


3.Please recommend a manga with a silly but lovable/cute main character. I want the manga to be a simple read, so no angst ~
Examples: Yotsubato! (Yotsuba), Nanaco Robin (Nako), My Hero! (Yutaro)

*NOTE: Please no ecchi, smut, yaoi, yuri, shounen/shoujo ai, hentai for all. Also, I would prefer if you looked at my lists to see what I have already read. (If something is on my on hold list, you may re-recommend it biggrin)*

2. If you want something with cute characters I'd reccomend Gosick. If you want something really serious with a deep plot, I'd reccomend Monster (it's tagged as horror but it really isn't...) or pretty much any mystery works by Urasawa Naoki. For something "on the middle" I'd reccomend Spiral. I could also think of Iris Zero and Tantei Gakuen Q (this is my favorite standard "dectectives on multiple cases" manga) but they're on hiatus/non totally scanlated.

2.
Neuro
Spiral
Ghost Hunt
Shinrei Tantei Yakumo

I'm afraid I've never read a solving cases manga without supernatural elements, all of them got some. Also, page-turner or not is relative.

3.
Skip Beat (the girl)
Ouran Host Club (the guy) ~ the manga is pure silliness ._.
Beast Master (the guy)

Not sure about angst... since even in Nanaco Robin I detected a little bit of angst. Well you'll see I guess xD

I've actually seen the anime of Gosick and I loved it! I'll definitely try out the ones you recommended. They sound intresting. Thanks! biggrin

Thanks for the recommendations! Yes, I understand page-tuner is a pretty relative. I guess I'm just betting that the recommendations will have what I'm looking for bigrazz

Nononono should fit, she is
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
crossdressing as her brother after his death and she meets his brother's girlfriend
but I doubt it's the kind of story you want. It's overall a nice read, but I don't know if you could be comfortable with that kind of fanservice.

Umm..for your loveable idiot request I think Aiura totally fits. Its a 4-koma slice of life with three female leads with different personalities. The story centers around Amaya, Iwasawa, and Uehara ā€” three "annoying, spirited high school girls with zero motivation" ā€” and their classmates. Their daily life is "what happens when there is nothing happening." laugh
