Usui from Kaichou wa Maid-sama!
Kazuma Ojiro from Faster than a kiss
Kei from Special A

Totally agree.
Tomoya from Fall in love like a comic is also a great one

(sorry if all the tagging fails. im new to this 😕 )

Claudio from Ristorante Paradiso!
The perfect elderly italian gentleman!

you know you want it

@yujin, Ii Hito is SOOOOOOO cute! OOHHHHH. <3 Such a sweetheart!

@atilye, Claudio is a DREAMBOAT! (Or should I say, a Venetian gondola?) 😉 Thank you!

He most definitely is! My thoughts are far from chaste every time I see his pretty bespectacled face.

😁

Hee! Ono Natsume (a.k.a. Basso) is single-handedly responsible for my oyaji fetish! Such sensitive, tenderly lined, expressive faces! And those quiet, slightly melancholy, puppy-like eyes!

whimper

😀

<3

Edit: THAT REMINDS MEEEEEE. The gorgeous older gents of Esuto Emu also qualify! Oomph. Have you read Est Em? Because OH my god! I think you'll love her works!

20 Mensou ni Onegai!!
Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle
Clamp Gakuen Tanteidan

The main characters in these are all perfect gentlemen. The last one is not romance, though, but it sill fits.

Densha Otoko

For some reason I'm on a brainfart today. Can't think of any others...

@Tartufo
I have read Est Em's stuff, they're lovely. I remember a particular spanish gentleman from Red Blinds the Foolish that got me drooling. 😃
You don't see them in her work as much though, not as frequently as in Ono's, in any case. At least that's the impression that I got from the very scant selection available on the net.

Oooh, but Tableau numéro 20! <3 (talk about the sexy cover on that!)

you know you want it

@atliye, you're right that (sadly) Est Em has fewer older gents... But the ones she DOES have are delish, aren't they? Mmmm... <3

@Vilde0806, thanks for the CLAMP recs! For some reason, I've never really gotten around to reading their manga... Which is a crime for anyone who claims to be an otaku, lol. Thanks!

Thanks also to everyone else!

i would have to say Yamato from say i love you is the cutes and best manga guy ever hes such a perfect gentleman!! it the best manga ever!!!

Kanata Kara fits pretty close...
the guy in Cheese in the Trap but I think he's hiding something 😛
I think the Mekakushi no Kuni guy fits well too.

Go to work, send your kids to school;
Follow fashion, act normal;
Walk on the pavement, watch T.V.;
Save for retirement, obey the law.
Repeat after me: I am free.

I second Mekakushi no Kuni! I read this manga a long time ago but I still remember the guy as a pretty nice guy 🙂

"The are some things you can never get back,
no matter how much effort you put in.
And there are some feelings of despair,
that you can never shake off."
-Ciel, Kuroshitsuji

Shitsuji-sama no Okiniiri

The more obvious choice ^^;;

]Not the most normal series, but by far the most perfect "gentleman" I have ever found in manga Kurositsuji honestly if you havent already done so READ IT, it is incredible

maybe Noblesse?
thats the only perfect gentlemen that comes to my mind

I hear you say "Why?" Always "Why?" You see things; and you say "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"
