I declare myself head peon by the way :facepalm:


Anyway, it is again that time: The time where I need something new to read because the series that I'm currently following have not had a release in 2 months or longer (though the last Kurohime was pretty decent)...


So: Give me something interesting to read. Preferably Seinen, or a well developed story of any other demographic. No gore, no psychological, no boring. Something dramatic is cool, but I'm not really feeling something tragic. So a comedy in the Shakespearean sense.

Ecchi is welcome, as is romance, but again, it must be integrated in the story.

Annnnnnd..... go.

If I had a fantasy self, it'd be a tentacle monster.

Love Prism.

ABSOLUTELY NO MALE ON MALE ACTION IS ALLOWED IN ANY OF THE SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE

I am not homophobic, I am Androphobic. It's an involved story that I don't want to get into, but I don't want to see anything like that.


Also, accessibility is highly desired. No, I am not asking for downloads. However, if the suggestion you make just happens to be on a certain hosting site, that would be optimum.

Hahahahahahaa

I don't see why you thought of that.




I suggest Blood+. Although, I've found there aren't many people here that like it, and you man be one of those.

Also, xxxHolic is seinen, and has a pretty good plot.

androphobic? afraid of men? cant think of men series missing male characters

two of my favorite. both are long, engrossing, and (most important) complete

Reword: Androgenitarepugnance.

I just made it up now, and it sums up what I feel.

Anyway, any sleeper type stuff, aside from shit like that, which has been suggested to me in the past?

BTW, I don't use shit as a derogatory term, but more as a pronoun.

.........................
No gore? What sort of man are you!? -____- XD No psychological either? 0.0

You know that strikes off about 99% of my lists, right? XD

Lets see.. I may have a couple..

Hikaru No Go - Just try it, and make sure to get through at least 4 chapters before dropping it. It may sound utterly boring, but it is not so, and is well-developed. Not to mention the author actually makes the characters change clothes every day. XD It can also be occasionally funny, but not really.
Historie - Ok, so there is a tinnnnnyy little bit of violence in this one, but you should read it anyway. There is such a little amount you shouldn't mind, and its just blood. I don't remember any guts and brains and the like. Plus, its really interesting and well thought out. Although, it may be a bit serious for what you're asking for.

...........
You know, in all my lists, I think those two might be the only ones that really are close to what you want....


________________

Hmm, can't be too sure what's been suggested to you before, but these are worth looking at if you haven't already:

Gunslinger Girl - I know you said no tragic, and well there is a fair share of sadness here. Still, it's worth recommending as I've yet to see a seinen series more compelling in terms of dramatic, emotional storytelling. It's serious but far from boring. Maybe not what you're looking for at the moment but I feel obliged to mention it. Disregarding a few select scenes, there's not too much in the way of gore either.

Aiki - this is an amusing seinen manga I started recently. Very ecchi, full of sexy girls fighting. Plot reminds me of the earlier parts of Tenjou Tenge (you know, back when the story could actually be followed). Protagonist is a very humorous, interesting character.

Himegami - I've been recommending this a lot lately. It's a very promising seinen series. Obviously, if yuri is a problem it might not be your cup of tea but it has a lot to offer beyond that. Good art (though some character designs take some getting used to), action, ecchi, and a fair sprinkle of humor make this one series I'm watching closely.

Change 123 - a fairly amusing seinen ecchi series. Good action, some humor, reasonably interesting plot. Worth at least checking out

These series are just getting started (a single volume or less scanned so far) but show promise and might be worth getting into at this point (provided scans do in fact continue):

Dance in the Vampire Bund
Freezing
Hayate x Blade
Jormungand
Sasame Kikoto


And finally, I'm sure you've probably either read or been suggested these before, but in the off chance you haven't, maybe one of them might work. Most are more shounen than seinen:

Aflame Inferno
Claymore
Code:Breaker
Enchanter
Immortal Regis
Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge
Rappi Rangai
Shina Dark
Strawberry Shake Sweet
Superior
Vampire Juujikai
XBlade

Tree + Taco = Tree taco.

^Great recs, though I've read/am reading about half of those.


I think you misunderstand me.
It's not that I don't want violence, but rather that I don't want gratuitous violence, i.e. an integral part of the plot.

And psychological thrillers are boring to me.

Oh, I was a bit confused then. Still, I think those are the only two things I could suggest to you that fit what you want. At least, I can't think of any. XD

I don't suppose you could make your lists public then, could you? It'd be a lot easier to know what you have read already, an what type of stuff you like.
