Alright, this isn't for me, it's for my friend. He loves huge amounts of action but hates seinen, gratuitous amounts of blood and gore, and unnecessary nudity. Does anyone know any mangas like that? He's currently reading Negima, Hitman Reborn, Zombie Loan, Bleach, and Naruto.

of those i'd say
mx0 - not enough action
hunterxhunter - very little action till about half way

i'd reccomend
kenichi
kenshin
black cat
rave
one piece - if he doesn't mind the art style
hellsing - little gory (maybe a little more than that)


the others i don't have a strong opinion about or have not read

Violence:
Claymore~its seinen, but its still nice
GTO
Shonen Junai Gumi(basically the prequel)
Hellsing
Priest
Vampire Hunter D
Berserk
Trigun
Ga-rei
One piece is overrated, it suffers from chronic lack of plot and recycling of old plotlines
Nudity:
Suzuka

How can Claymore be seinen? It's published in a shounen magazine, which automatically make it Shounen. Just 'cause it looks seinen doesn't mean it is one. Oh, and I'm looking for a manga WITHOUT nudity. My friend does not like romance or comedy. He's a straight up action fan. Probly explains why the only games he likes are FPS's.

That seems like one that might interest him. He read Negima so I guess near nudity doesn't really bother him.
