As the topic said.

I'm looking for an adventure/romance type manga where the heroine is a princess/royal birth.

Now here's the thing that I'd rather avoid:

- No "cute" princess. No, just no.

- She has to be a spitfire, or at least, has a sharp mouth. (Think tsundere, only a bit more three-dimensional.) If you're able to read Japanese, then the heroine normally uses a very formal way of speaking.

- Please don't recommend me a princess that's weak, timid, and quiet. These types are mind-numbingly boring.

- I'm looking for a princess that's spoiled and clueless of the real world, but at the same time, intrigued by everything! Think not a fragile flower, but one with nerves of steel.

Examples:

Mermaid Forest
Air [Summer Arc] (Yes it's anime I know.)

Hmmm. Hard question, but maybe you could try Vampire Game would this work?

Yeah, the description is screaming Ishtar everywhere.

Maybe also Pacifica from Scrapped Princess.

What I like in Trivial Pursuit style. Pick your category:

these may fit

Kaibutsu Oujo
Murder Princess
Tsukuyomi - Moon Phase
Hatenkou Yuugi

Heh, I've read that, thank you! I confess to paying more attention to the barely-hinted yaoi romance lol.



I think I've read this, but I'll go through just to make sure. But from what I can remember, it doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for though...



The description sounds exciting; I'll take a peek at it, thanks!

Tsukuyomi - Moon Phase

Isn't Tsukuyomi a moe series? (Note that I absolutely abhor anything moe. ) As for Hatenkou Yuugi, it sounds good - I'll check out the main heroine and see if she fits the description, thanks!

I'm glad that you like my recommendations, hope you found some what you were looking for

When I saw the anime from Tsukuyomi I thought that the main charackter was deceptively, she just played innocent to tempt her preys but I just took a look at the manga and it was really seems like moe lol maybe they are different or I had a wrong impression

Fire Emblem - Hasha no Tsurugi feature a couple of not weak princess.

I'm not entirely sure whether The Bride of Adarshan qualifies, but... maybe she does? She's pretty sharp-tongued if she doesn't like something.

Um, she is only 10, though. That adds a semi-loli element to the romance that you might not want to read, even though this is quite an innocent little shoujo manga...

Not exactly romance, but there are hints/potential romance:
ShiraYuki PaniMix!
Yozakura Quartet, not literally a princess but she's a mayor and her name's Hime... uh, I hope that's close enough.

hmmm...maybe Limited Lovers?? cause shes this spoiled brat who does anything to get what she wants..

GUESS WHO??

I suggest you try Don't Touch Me!. The heroine is not a princess though, but not only she acts like one, she acts like the kind of princess you wanted.

DONDAKEE!!

superior she's not a princess but the demon queen and a spoiled one...

I second this one. In fact, the character you're looking for is the reason I read this manga. She's wonderful.

Agreed and thirded.... great char, awesome romance, and an interesting plot. Aside from that shinigami trilogy fits pretty well(tho she isn't clueless and isn't a princess but a comppany presidents daughter).

dance in the vampire bund(samme non-clueless)
