Try out Kekkaishi.
Its a good shounen.

At the moment I'm re-reading Hajime no Ippo - its a shounen, too.
Its a manga about a guy that starts boxing and kicks ass xD
I love the characters. Its has an old style art and its almost at volume 80. biggrin
I'm gonna fill a DVD with this manga smile

Kekkaishi.
i started reading that one 2day yeh its a good one.

and Hajime no Ippo i didnt read it but the story sounds kind of werd... and also with it being at vol 80... that seems a bit much sounds like its one of those mangas that are very repetative with not much plot or a plot that does not progress that much.

If you liked MAR I highly recommend Flame of Recca. Its by the same author, only IMO Flame of Recca is far better.

Then I will also through out Full Metal Alchemist, D.Gray-Man, and 666 Satan as good reads that you might want to try out if you haven't already.

if you do decide to pick up flame of recca a word of warning, the art starts off fairly rough but gets better as you go.

also read bleach if you like naruto that much..

I believe that HxH is on haitus because the mangaka has health problems and can't work on it.

Hum i don't understand why everyone says that if they like bleach they'll like naruto and vice-versa... They're completely different... Maybe the fact they r good has sth to do with it ( yes they r good eventhough a bit overrated) biggrin
Well most shounen's i've read are already in there but i'd like to suggest One piece ( probably you're into it already), Yu Yu Hakusho and a seinen that sometimes resembles a shounen in some aspects though it has way too much gore to be one: Project ARMS

P.S. : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshihiro_Togashi
Just wanted to confirm what he said about the health problems of the HxH Mangaka biggrin

Well, Hajime no Ippo is about Pro Boxing ... so its about 2-3 Volumes per Fight.
Thats because he trains before the fight and that is shown so that people can see where the progress comes from he makes before every fight.
The major point of this manga is the characters and the awesome fights.
Just give it a try ;)
