Hi, i'm currently looking for some good manga that are slightly educational, but also aren't 100% realistic in the way it's presented, the only manga's i can think of that are what i'm looking for are:

Wild Life - mc has an "ability" to hear whats wrong with the animals
Saijou no Meii - mc has an "ability" to see everything inside a patient in a 3 dimensional way without aid from technology

{note: does not need to be medical specifically}

what i want are:
Educational - as above, i want it educational but also not 100% realistic
A decent MC - really sick of 1 dimensional, no personality MC's (prefer the mc to be male)
Some Comedy - not so much it becomes a gag, but not so little it becomes too serious
Light Romance - not really needed, but its just something that spices up stories for me
Tranlating - does not need to be fully translated, as long as its actively being done

I DON'T want:
Fluffy - hard to explain, but i dont want it to be all flowers and girly squeals and idiot protagonists that are all "oh they smiled at me... I LOVE YOU!"
Overly Ecchi - some ecchi is fine as long as its not over the top, sick of manga with panty shots and boob shots in every pannel
Preverted MC - they are the worst mc's ever thought of...
Gag
Oneshots - absolutely hate oneshots, especially the ones that leave you wanting more
Dark/Depressing
Psychological/Mind F_ck
Yaoi / Yuri
Josei - i don't mind romance but Josei is a little to much for my tastes
Shounen Ai / Shoujo Ai
Rape
Hentai / Borderline H
Doujin
Smut
Gender Bender - this is ok ONLY if not a major part of the story, or only apears in 1 or 2 chapters out of 100
Gore - a little is fine but i don't want it to be like Gantz where its all detailed out, blood spurts and decapitation i can handle, but i don't need to see the details of brain matter splattering the floor

Well i have a signature where i list all sorts of authors by genre and this line is a copy and paste:

Educational: Crimsons - Akai Koukaishatachi Finished + Hadashi no Gen Finished
