Hi,
some years ago, i read my first manga (Vampire Knight) which didn't satisfy me much, but did drag me into manga world. then i read my second manga (Loveless) after watching the anime and it blew me away! the way Yun Kouga used to bring out the very depths of characters in Loveless, felt amazing. although i read a lot of manga after that, nothing did the same to me.even the three others that i could bring myself to give a 10 to. (i'm easygoing about 1-9 but very picky about 10 lol )

the only thing i know is i care too much about art (also don't like messy art like Defense Devil and need something that gives me the feeling like the mangaka knows where she/he is going. i don't know.
based on my manga lists here, could anyone with a similar taste to mine please give me some recommendations? even if it's one manga, it'd be great^^

Thank you for your time and sorry if i bored you~

EDIT: @kitty1826x I'm not obsessed with a certain genre. the only thing i'm obsessed with, is art. like, when i don't like an anime/manga's art, i ignorantly don't start watching/reading them. not caring how good it's story could be! for example, when i started Magician manhwa, i totally fell in Love with the story and characters, but couldn't bear the art, so stopped reading sad

Yeah ... not sure if I understand what your tastes are .... If you're looking for Shounen Ai *cough* wrong section.

Never seen the anime for Loveless. (Barely remember reading it ....)

Going off "bring out the very depths of characters"
Kubera (Although it just got dropped because of official translations are just now getting released). IMO great Manhwa, but waiting 4 years to resume where the unofficial translations left off ... So up to you.


I'm going to suggest things I liked, as I tend to have somewhat strict taste for what's "good". (These all range from cute to dark to funny ... there's a bit of a range)
Meteor Methuselah Haven't found someone that dislikes it
Hana no Namae one of my favs.
Hana wa Knife o Mi ni Matou another one of my favs.
Angel Densetsu Okay the drawing is bad, but the story is worth it
Ore ga Akuma de, Aitsu ga Yome de. Cute >.<
Basilisk
Kimi wa Pet
Fruits Basket
Kurokami no Helga
Kare First Love
Wolf & Mary
H2O
Superior and it's sequel.

I hope you enjoy most (preferably all >.>) of these recommendations.

Edit - The only one with bad drawing I would say is Angel Densetsu but you really really really should give it a shot.
Others may qualify as not so great art, but that's a matter of personal opinion.
Wait ... was your edit saying all the ones I suggested have bad art? eek confused

NO, no no not at all eek ~ i haven't checked them all yet. and i'm thankful 'cause some of your suggestions were in my wish list, i just needed somebody to push me. like Kubera. i'm reading it now (but can't hide it, art like Loveless and Pandora hearts could make a huge difference shy )

Ahhh, okay.
I did warn you about waiting 4 years for the next chapter of Kubera ....

I forgot to mention some oneshots. Not sure if you're okay with oneshots, but they are short and IMO worth a read.
S no Kaikoroku
Puzzle (MORIE Satoshi)
Kuma-san to Issho
Escape from High-School Girls maybe the sequel too
Rensou Mode



Maybe you can check out the things in these two thread. Here and here there's probably more similar threads, but I just pick the first two I saw.

Okay, not sure if these are what you're looking for but here goes -

Chang Ge Xing has absolutely beautiful art
Godly Bells
Natsume Yuujinchou has sketchy art and while I find it beautiful and very well suited to the story, I know not everyone is a fan. Still, check it out.
Bokura no Kiseki

yay i love art too!
here are a couple that i think you might like after looking at your reading list

Shoukoku no Altair
Bokura no Kiseki
Noragami
+C: Sword and Cornett -though story can be kind of confusing at times
Kurenai Ouji
Kami-sama ga Uso o Tsuku

also i will stronly second Chang Ge Xing, Bokura no Kiseki, and Natsume Yuujinchou though it is true that some people dont like the art in natsume yuujinchou i think it fits perfectly, but if you dont like it you can try the animation of the anime its not as sketchy
