unfortunately I've already completed Duds Hunt and read enough Rurouni Kenshin to understand that it's not my cup of tea... as well as Shaman King
nevertheless, I do appreciate your effort. thanx

I've already used it million times as well as some other ways to find a nice adventure manga.
this topic is like a last resort for me.

dozens of fantasy and sci-fi mangas are sent in so strange realities, they cannot be descrided as Japan. though as I can see, you want some real countries.
a half of Nodame Cantabile is set in Europe.
Gunslinger Girl also Europe, mostly Italy.
Ore to Akuma no Blues US.

I think it was 1/2 Prince. too shoujo for me. first few volumes was much more game oriented, and as ex-MMO-fag I was trying to figure out game mechanics. but then it just gets too predictable. one girl, two guys... gimme a break

Successor to Bleach/Naruto/One Piece

it would be definitely nostalgic to live without NaruBleaPiece chapters every week... Naruto and Bleach are not so good any more, but seeing chapters coming out for few years already it's like a sign that there's at least something unchangeable in this world.

manga is just a tool to express your great (or not so great) ideas. it doesn't mean that if you suddenly try to draw comic you'll suck. just feel the difference.
you can draw a descent story that will attract even Japanese and make them translate your creation to Japanese....

it's not only about detective, but plot is great and detectives are also involved.

I can't really recall a good one that I've read.
The problem is, the guy always seems that he can't appreciate the great situation he's in, and the girls really have no reason to want to be with such a clueless guy... it just seems so unrealistic and frustrating.

I think those guys are more brains + brawn type, cause they rely not only on brains but also on brawns (guns).
