Manga such as Dragon Quest: Dai no Daiboken, Monster Hunter Orage and It's A Wonderful World are good examples for this topic.

Any good titles that I should check out?

Tales of Symphonia<---longer and more serious
Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap<---very cute, and short

are action-y video game mangas

Meine Liebe is based off a dating sim...I think.

Saw it. I thought it was cute. But that's not my point.
My point it that Ookami-san was written before superior... So~

Oh that. No, I was meaning to compare the plot between the two mangas. They both have similar themes but different plot.

I'm getting so sick of 'cute' shoujo-ish storylines...I've just noticed that my Public reading list is flooded with shoujo genres.. My personal definition of a good manga is its PLOT. (no cliches...stereotypical characters..)

Anyways, just to stay on topic, here's some Moar recommendations! biggrin

.hack//Link
.hack//G.U.+
Valkyrie Profile
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria

All of them are manga adaptation from the games.
