So, I've been away from the anime and manga world for almost 5 years (4 years, 9 months and 16 days actually) and haven't read anything decent at all except the occasional yaoi ('cause those are anything but decent). I don't recommend going thru my complete list, since I have not updated that and my reading tastes has improved over the years. Since I've lost touch with this world, I kinda need your wisdom and assistance, dear otakus!

I'm craving something Dark Tall and Handsome
or....

1.a. Dark as in Psychological, and Mystery but no Tragedy please.
Gore is welcome, (Psychological is seldom complete without it), as well as any other depravity one encounters in this genre.
or
b. Light as in Comedy. I need a laugh every now and then, too! RL's too depressing already.

2. Tall like Multi-Chaptered but not necessarily so. Oneshots are okay, it depends on the whole story.

3. Handsome 'cause I dig pretty, pretty art, or anything these past 15 years has to offer, just avoid the Daimos or Voltes 5 era artstyle.

I ready any genre be it Josei, Seinen, Yaoi or Yuri, Shonen/Shoujo-Ai or Shojo or Shonen, but I avoid the overly-cliched which usually falls under the last two demographic. Mainstream or not, I'll go for it. It's the story that matters, ne?

Do you real LN's? if so the protagonist from Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (Novel) seems like the kinda guy you're looking for, also it fits both A and B req's biggrin (after a few chaps in anyway)
