I'm looking for romance manga. I've read too many of those love-at-first-sight or similar manga already, and I'm quite tired of those now. I want to find some manga whereby the 2 character are not in love with each other yet at the beginning and slowly building up. I want to read about them slowly realising their love or start to fall in love for each other. However, I don't want where 1 of them already like the other at the beginning or too early.

Some examples are
Cardcaptor Sakura: the first character to realise his love is at the middle of the manga.
Skip Beat
Seven days: totally the kind I want? I read until chapter 11 and it has very great potential.

The second thing I want to find is manga similar to Switch and Dolls by naked ape. I truely enjoy the plot of this 2 manga by them.

I'm ok with shounen, shoujo or anything as long as it is not hentai and yuri. This means that yaoi is fine with me. But if there is some yuri/shoujo ai that's really good and mild, I don't mind trying. Any suggestion would be appreciated. (:

the first request

high school debut

Looking for this!!!

A new day is beggining

For the First Request about the characters slowly falling in love I would reccomend
Parfait Tic

I haven't finished the series yet(actually I'm almost finished) and I think it is BRILLIANT!!!
Highly Recommended!

Here are some completed ones:
Eensy Weensy Monster
H2O
Sugar Addiction
Bitter Virgin
Uwasa no Midori-kun

Ones I totally love (and constantly recommend), though two people still aren't in mutual love yet (as far as I've read):
Cynical Orange
Akuma to Love Song
The One
The Prince's Cactus
The Summit
Honey Hunt
Crimson Hero (for this one there actually is a mutual relationship)

Cousin (Ikuemi Ryou) is a must.

I also second H20 and Hana Yori Dango.

Perfect Girl Evolution: though the development may actually be too slow XDD But it's highly entertaining, at any rate. This is probably an obvious one.

Kaze Hikaru and Lovely Complex? Though the girls in these ones realise that they are in love quite early on .

And I totally second everything psychotrky has listed.

I read this before or currently readin now:
Totally captivated
High School Debut
Toradora
Backstage Prince
Host club
Parfait Tic
Lovely complex
Perfect Girl Evolution

Thanks for mentioning anyway.

As for the rest I will go and read it. Thanks all! ^^

Anyway keep the recommendation coming in, I do read manga quite fast.

Beauty Pop
Love Monster
Bitter Virgin was one of the best I've ever read
Maybe Suzuka would work too
Inuyasha if you want to have some looooooooong manga (maybe too few "o" in the long) same goes for Ranma ½
