Since I've begun reading manga, I have started with Shoujo and have not branched out. After a couple years, I've noticed I have exhausted the genre and there isn't too many titles out there that I haven't read.

I'm a huge romantic and love all kinds of stories as long as romance is a large portion of the plot. Thus, people who have branched out and have read all kinds of titles, I ask if you could please recommend me some new reading material.

As far as genres are concerned, I don't care! Introduce your favorite romances to me! smile

Thank you.

Hm, you don't have public lists. I'll just recommend some seinen and shounen romance I liked.

Tasogare Otome x Amnesia - Ghost love. The art is really, really good, the story is very interesting and the characters are memorable.

Bonnouji - One of the most chill manga you'll ever find. It has romance and it's romantic, imo, which doesn't exaclty happen all the time in manga.

Musunde Hiraite (Minase Mayu) - Intertwined love stories with a high school setting. Don't be fooled. It's not your "usual" high school romance. The characters are deep and you will care for them once you know them well.

I'll edit the post with some more later.

As mentioned before, Tasogare Otome x Amnesia and Bonnouji are great. A few of my favourites:

Horimiya Nice art and fun characters. The romance between the main couple moves a bit more to the background later on with a lot of (very enjoyable) comedy, but in the latest chapters they once again take the spotlight.

Koharu no Hibi The female lead is obsessed with the MC so it can get a little weird, but it's a very enjoyable read and quite sweet.

Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai - Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen Still quite new, but it has a very nice spin: the two MC's are trying to make the other confess because they believe the one who confesses is inferior in de relationship.

Wakabayashi Toshiya's 4-koma Collection and the magazine version (which you should read after the web version although a few chapters overlap) Tsurezure Children I really like this series, it's just so cute xD Be warned that the POV switches between multiple couples and a few guys look very similar, so it might be a bit confusing at first.

Hajiotsu. Also very cute

I hope you find something you like! smile
