Preferentially by a female author. Any ideas/suggestions are appreciated!

*man/boy. No shemale pls. Only forced gender bender (but still masculine gender) tolerable at the most, and maybe hermaphrodites lol

*i prefer romance but dont mind others as long as you consider them very very good

Thank you very much. Can you pinpoint the best ones? I hope they arent yaoi too lol

How about Josei ones?

I edited my first reply and added an asterisk to the ones I like the most (most of them are comedies).
There's no yaoi, so the lists I made are safe ?

As for josei manga, I can suggest you these ones:

Bokura no Kiseki
Sakamichi no Apollon
Shitsuren Chocolatier
Tada, Kimi o Aishiteru

Im so happy, thank you so much!

Ah, damn I forgot to mention I prefer Romance, but dont mind so much if its at least a subplot

Aishiteruze Baby, Boku wa Imouto ni Koi o Suru, Coda, Full Dozer, Hinatama and One Winter are all other ones that come up under the Female Demographic with Male Lead tag, and yeah, all okay at least.

Good luck ?

Yeah i noticed i couldve been smarter with the demographic searches. Anyway thanks all

No biggie, it's always better to have other reader's recommendations, right? I didn't give you all the ones I had, some of 'em suuuucked ?

Speaking of which, a big recommendation on Sakamichi no Apollon that Bog Initiate mentioned, one of my favorite titles of any demographic right there. Of course I liked the period setting, the themes with the jazz and counter-culture stuff, but yeah, just a great overall story from start to finish. Couldn't recommend that one highly enough if you haven't already read it.

Ore Monogatari!! and Last Game
