If you want me to actually read it, you have to recommend me something that I'll enjoy (Or like the style of) so if you want to give me the right recommendation, read on!

I know it's a lot, but, be brave, be brave.

What I'm looking for:
-----------------Genre wise (In the line of):
-Fiction
-adventure
-comedy
-fantasy
-drama/romance (Doesn't have to be in the story that much, but at least sprinkled into
the manga(anime))
-----------------Storyline wise:
-It can be anything from vampire knights to evil demon vs. fairies from the light realm
-Examples of past read manga:
-Supreme, The bride of the water god, Id, masca, fairy tail (I don't want this kind of
style, but if the manga is real good, then maybe ;D), mononoke(anime), goong,vampire knight
-Note: I would rather have mangas like Ib, supreme and the bride of the
water god, but if there really good, then you can go by genre or the others
----------------Style wise:
-I want styles that are:
-Delicate, this usually means that they are manhwa. When I say delicate i mean that
the manga looks....it's hard to explain, but manga like this usually have characters
with dark hair, and most of the time historical (/fantasy) or
involve some kind of monarchy
-Going by genre. I'll warn you though, I usually go by looks.

Thank you very much

I haven't read any of those, but I'd reccomend these based on the genres and art style you mentioned.

Definately Shin Angyo Onshi if you haven't already.

Not everything by clamp...I'm not really into that whole fluffy pink magical girl thing....but xxxholic is fine, I read a chapter or to a few years ago, and didn't like it much, but I'll try it again

Everything Kaori Yuki has deja-vu..for some very odd reason 0_o... and lots of CLAMP, Tanemura Arina (warning-lame storylines), Daisuke Moriyama and the more recent works of Mitsukazu Mihara (her older ones look like ****, but her newer ones, like The Embalmer are excellent.

I can't remember/haven't read enough of those authors so I'll only list individual series:
Seimaden
Alichino (best artwork EVER)
Cantarella
Mana
Crimson cross
Kugutsu
Petshop of Horrors
Glass Wings (warning-some incest)
Covered in cinders (so-called "gore" that's not too gory)
Silver Diamond (shounen-ai)
and this one has pretty "meh" artwork (and it gets a bit sappy at times) but it's good Anatolia Story
also Cocoa was a cute oneshot from the author of Fairytail.
Second D.Gray-man 🙂

We have pretty similar tastes 😃

Saver - time travel, adventure, gender bender, fantasy, historical, drama, romance, sword fights, etc. Great art, hot bishies, great story (the 1st vol is about her life in her world, and the 2nd vol is where the fun really starts...in another world 😀 ) currently my favourite korean manhwa ^__^

Legend of Nereid - fantasy, historical, romance, gender bender. another great manhwa. 🙂

Anatolia Story - adventure, fantasy, historical, drama, romance. art is a little old-fashioned, but the story really makes up for it. 😀

07-Ghost I think is very good but I'm not sure if it has the right art style.

Fushigi Yuugi Gendou Kaiden also the original Fushigi Yuugi if you want but I found the Gendou series is much better, you don't need to read one to understand the other. They're stand alone stories with very little crossover.
Also by Yu Watase Ayashi no ceres might be what you're looking for.

World Embryo once again I' not sure on the art, I haven't read any of the series you mentioned but I think the genres match up and it's a good series in my opinion.

Kagerou Nostalgia because I love it and reccomend it to everyone 😛
