'ello everybody,
I'm a-looking for any manga that deals with the theme of fitting in + learning social skills, ideally (but not necessarily) in a situation where the child grew up in the absence of human contact. Some mangas that fit the bill are:
Beast Master
Safe Again Today
i know the subject is kinda rare obscure mangas are fine. I'm alright with mature manga, shonen ai and in very very rare cases, non-graphic yaoi (if there is such a thing),

Agghhh, I know one that fits perfectly. Child raised by monkeys, then found by a researcher dude at around 8... hold on, I'll see if I can find the name.
If you don't mind regular books, Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M. Auel also deals with that theme.

Cat Street (about a recluse learning social skills, not wild child)

Wild Damon - i just finished reading it. It was cute, albeit a little too romantic for my tastes. Good concept though!
Kiichi - It's a bit strange, and the kid is kind of unrelatable, but it's pretty good i guess. He's definitely wild lol.
Cat Street -Already am reading it I like it quite a bit.
Pansy - looks a bit too old school for me. I might try it some other time.
Yotsuba - a different sort of wild child. I love her and i love the manga. Very cute!
