Hi people , i wanted to look for a manga or anime with these factors.

1) the protagonist(s) have given up on love woth real girls or guys egBoys on the run, but somewhat finds hope and salvation.

2)Something in relation to otaku culture , especially this manga, as it was never scanned Mousou Shoujo Otakukei <== do you know any manga like this.

3)something like Ressentiment, although do not suggest "hack"

I would prefer, seinen, shonen, or josie
Athough i dont mind the yaoi like story , where the guy has given up on love and started finding men interesting. I want the drawings a bit real and not these god like creatures with immense beauty Also applys to shoujo.

Mangas that i have read which are similar:

Welcome to the NHK!
Ressentiment
Game-room Guest and My Mother
Otaku no Musume-san
Densha Otoko
Densha Otoko: Gambare Doku Otoko
Densha Otoko - Demo, Ore Tabidatsu yo
Barihaken
lucky star
the world god only knows

Thanks in advance
biggrin

There are other that I don't remember the title now, was about a girl whose brother was like the perfect student but in reality he is a huge otaku when he gets back home.

Metal Heart
I, Otaku

Are the only other ones I can think of. I'm not terribly impressed by either of them though.

You could try Akihabara@DEEP as well, although I haven't looked at the manga version yet.

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

Rozen Maiden is the only one I can come up. I didn't read the manga, but the anime is not bad.
