I'm looking for a Romance/Smut/Mature manga with Shoujo-esque art with a female protagonist.

Absolutely must have a minimum of 20 chapters (if not longer). I like long mangas.

No yaoi, yuri, shounen-ai, shojou-ai, or gender bender (not against it, just not what I'm looking for).

So difficult to find a decent one! Please, oh wise ones! Share with me some undiscovered treasures? =3

Read or reading:
Black Bird
Midnight Secretary
Moe Kare
The One
Sukitte ii Na Yo
Mei-chan no Shitsuji
Love Monster
Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu
Lovey Dovey

On hold (aka not too impressed):
Chou yo Hana yo
Momoiro Heaven!
Wild Act

kindan no koi wo shiyou
mamotte agemasu
love strip(if u like as much as I did don't be mislead to find other works by this author.... I personally loved this story, but hated almost all the authors other works) EDIT: just remembered u wanted 20+ chapters. Unfortunately this one doesn't cut it.... possibly not mamotte either x.x... still a great read

And love celeb personally I think its trash but a lot of people seem to like it.

m0r l83r... maybe >_>

do read Silver (FUJITA Kazuko). It's so good and the art is nice

If you want to go for super smutty manga, find no other than Renai Shijou Shugi

Also, super smutty is: [m]Yokujou © Max[/m] aka Desire Climax

Try other works by Moe Kare's author. I think her works are pretty similar tho so I kinda get bored

do you have any other requirements cause they're kinda broad

Help! I'm looking for... manga with dangerous guys http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=39874&pa ge=1#post594033

Hapi Mari = 10/10
Private Prince = 9/10 (ended too early, maybe, not enough drama?)
Love Celeb = trash
Hot Gimmick = i freaked out after reading this, it was my second manga after deathnote (dont ask why), for a guy this was pretty weird.

Honey x Honey = idk...close to trash imo

sigh i give up, not worth the effort, just click on Genres on the right-hand side panel > advanced search, tick smut (include) and search.

Works by [a]Shinjou Mayu[/a] and Red River

I'm also always looking for good smut. I can't think of too many more that haven't been suggested. It seems that it's hard to find longer titles that are still being scanlated. A lot of promising titles have been picked up but don't seem to be active. Anyway, here's what I've got - you'll see I like humor with my smut.

Aisuru Hito, Haa Haa, Itadakimasu, and other works by YOSHIHARA Yuki. You didn't care for Chiyou yo Hana yo, which is my favorite by her, so you might not like these, but in my opinion she is the queen of funny smut.

Hadashi de Bara o Fume is not listed as smut, but it has a lot of those 'almost' moments.

SHINJO Mayu - you either love or hate Mayu-tan. The characters all look alike, the stories are hackneyed, the relationships are too rape-y, all the men tend to fall for the heroine, etc. But, they are entertaining. I like her newer works best - the art has gotten better, the humor is on target, and the smut is nearly absent. Of her smutty works, give these a try:
Kaikan Phrase - this is probably her best smut. The heroine isn't as helpless as her others are, and the relationship never falters. I preferred the anime to the manga, which acts as a prequel to the manga.
Love Celeb - This one shows the improvement in her art style while still indulging in her ridiculous plotting. There's some laugh out loud moments, but the girl is such an idiot. The saving grace is that the guy is, too. Sakuya from Kaikan Phrase has a cameo.
Akuma na Eros - a high school girl summons Satan, and he falls in love with her. I found this to be hilarious, and still haven't figured out if that was her intention.

These all clock in at under 20 chapters, but I think they're worth a look.
It's Not Like That, Darling is 3 vol.
Honey na Koto, also just 3 vol.
Atashi wa Sore wo Gaman Dekinai and Fu Junai - these are shorts, but I just love anything by ENJOUJI Maki. The guys are hot, the story is usually funny, and she delivers on the smut. She does Hapi Mari
Stroke Material - 1 vol.
Mosaic Man - short

Seconding the already-mentioned Hot Gimmick (one of my all-time favorites), Desire Climax, and Hapi Mari.
