Damn this is harder than I thought since I gave my highest rating to at least 11 shounen-romance manga's 😛
Since I don't like to choose among them, I'll just give you my top 5 *not-so-well-known-as-the-others-*shounen-romance manga.

Here are those 11 manga's, the top 5 (in no particular order) is marked and in bold:

I"s
Katsu!

Lilim Kiss
Mx0
Open Sesame
Pastel
Parallel
Rosario+Vampire
Suzuka
Video Girl Ai
Zero no Tsukaima

I actually don't like shounen romances much... But I love seinen ones. May I offer my top 5 seinen romances, instead?

  1. Eternal Sabbath: Brilliant female scientist and a psychopathic experiment gone wrong. A romance for the ages!

  2. D-ASH: A young pervert and his childhood crush. Sounds like most of us, eh?

  3. Densha Otoko: The ultimate otaku finds love with a pretty woman, following an unexpected act of heroism.

  4. Emma: A young maid wins the heart of an aristocrat. Almost too gentle for my tastes, but the moe factor beats all. <3

  5. Basilisk: Martial arts, star-crossed lovers and mutually assured destruction... A true Armageddon-style romance.

I hope you didn't mind the fact that I listed seinen titles instead. Hmm... 🙂

Emma is sienen??
Then add that to my choices. I really thought it might be josei or something ...
Umm others ... I'd also have to go with Train man/Densha Otoko. That one is really sweet.
And Ah! My Goddess, though its not listed as seinen here.

Shounen Romance ...
Tuxedo Gin
Eureka Seven - though I've only watched the anime on Cartoon Network

Yeah, weird, innit? I thought it was josei as well, at first... But everywhere I go, I see it listed as seinen. shrug So I figured I might as well include it here.

About 4 of the 5 is of the harem/ecchi/fanservice influence... (School Rumble would be up there if I knew what the hell was going on...)

Ichigo 100%
Love Hina
I''s
IO
Salad Days (a lot of short stories + one main one)

A couple of new ones are gaining my love but we'll see by the end of it...

1.Salad Days and
2.Emma pretty much filled-up all my romance-manga fix to last me a lifetime.
Ther rest all romance-comedy:
3.Midori no Hibi
4.Love Hina
5.School Rumble

Quote from Hostile

(School Rumble would be up there if I knew what the hell was going on...) Basically:

Tsundere(Eri) likes the bearded sunglasses(Harima) who likes the uber-hawt main character(Tenma) who likes a kappa(Karasuma).

Special mention (like-most to like-not-so-much-but-still-like):
Love Collage, REC (The romance has reached its peak on the parts where the anime covered.), Pretty Face, The Hating Girl, Family Compo, Ichigo 100%, and I"s.

My top 5 is going to be pretty boring... all Adachi manags. I'll try to at least rate them in order =P

  1. Rough
  2. Katsu
  3. H2
  4. Cross Game
  5. Hiatari Ryoukou

Well, the last one was a little tough... I almost put Pretty Face ahead of Hiatari Ryoukou.

  1. Love Hina/any akamatsu work
  2. Ichigo 100%
  3. Pastel/Parallel
  4. I's
  5. Rave (ok so its not really all romance but there is within the story)

someone mentioned ah megami-sama and that would be my #1 but i dont really consider it as shounen, not really perverted or anything, more like shoujo thats borderline shounen
