OOk I just read chapter 6 of
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
and while it was obvious what would happen from like chapter 1 or 2 and totally realistic, its still a bummer. I want a GOOD(can't stress that enough) manga where the loser dude ends up with a girl way above his social status... that being said i'd still prefer he isn't so whiny and annoying and have some redeeming traits such as personality. Now for the classifications, and actually this can be reversed to loser girl getting the guy as well so shoujo/shounen/josei/seinen w/e u want.
Needed
-loser gets girl-
-generally happy manga-
-loser isn't totally pathetic or at least fixes himself later I.e. the breaker-
Bonus Points
-harem-
-Comedy-
-low drama... not saying no drama cuz good stories need it... just want to have mostly lighthearted comedy-
Deal Breakers
-Yaoi-
-Shounen-ai(unrecquited or side chars are fine, if some comic relief dude has a mancrush w/e, just can't relate to it being the main interest)-
-super space monkeys................... I wanted 3 sets of 3 >_>

Examples that work are
Ai Kora
Love Hina
to Love-ru
Rosario to vampire
I guess hajime no ippo works but he barely ever even notices the poor girl so not rly... anyway this should be enough to get a general idea. Ty in advance smile .

I'd say most of the manga with the tag "harem, shounen" is gonna be a "loser gets girl" story. Obvious choices: Ichigo 100%, Suzuka, I's, Omamori Himari, etc.
Also you can use the "weak male lead" category: http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?orderby=rating& category=Weak+Male+Lead& and pick the shounen/harem genre of those results.
If you want something a little better plot-wise I can only think of NHK.

unfortunately already read all the recs(nhk was a surprisingly good series btw so thanks for reminding me ofit biggrin... ichigo made me sadT-T) anyway thanks for the recs... guess i can go through the search again, just afraid of searching through it only to find a super boring "romance" where nothing ever happens and the protag never changes in any way x.x.

We have no idea what you've read since you don't have your lists open... I'm not sure if you've read this, since you did not mention it as an example, but totally reminded me of Love Lucky and I know you'll like it, if you haven't.

Lol that's why I had to specify good xp I've seen a lot of similar plots that just made me feel bored and annoyed by the time I finished it, and as for the rest ty tons for the recs. Also Its not that my lists aren't open it's that I read at an insane rate for around 2 years strait before I made this account... so I'm scared of the massive amount of time it'll take to make the list TT-TT

To clarify, you are specifically looking for a wide gap in social status, and not other characteristics... correct?

Well the dude either can't be totally pathetic, or he starts fixing himself.... I don't want a total loser with no redeeming characteristics. Also I want high amounts of comedy in comparison to the drama.... I.E. no rape past. Got tired of serious bummers and/or horrifying tragic stuff so I want innocent lighthearted fun but in a non-boring way.

Also pls not this is reversable, I don't care if its a female loser or male loser. Only stay away from yaoi anything else that fits is good, supernatural to slice of life to martial arts to any type of setting available just want some enjoyment that isn't bland smile basically perfect would be a hajime no ippo type of protagonist that doesn't totally ignore his love interest.

Ps. At FormX I did already read love lucky and yes I loved it, that was the type of feeling I was looking for. Guy wasn't totally pathetic but was certainly below the chick and he worked to improve himself as the story went, I found it rly sweet on both sides ^///^.

Yaoi=bad, nothing against it I can just not relate at all... tried about 3 and 2 I couldn't get into... the third was no bra which isnt really yaoi but I was constantly wishing on a yaoi ending.... sent my sexual identity haywire that one x.x. anyway for the most part try to stay away from yaoi recs, and ty to everyone for posting these. Should give me a lot to do in my spare time biggrin .

Btw @ lorska ty tons dude, every I'm looking for I make u post a buttload of perfect series I either haven't read or am really happy to be reminded of... also I agree on bloodlad, its not there but it will be or I'm rioting, the starting romance was wayy to hilarious and surprising to just stop xp

Nothing with sexual content or nudity!
^when gfs find ur computer open XD^

*EDIT*
Well I'm officially done with every rec on this list, and am pretty much fulfilled biggrin. Ty tons for aall the recs.

If you're into anime (beacuse the manga sucks) Zero no Tsukaima is the epitome of that.

But since you said to have read a lot of stuff, you probably already know it. Something less mainstreaming that I can think of could be probably Need a Girl. Domina no Do! is another thing which fits, but I'd read it only under torture, but maybe you will like it. Same for R-15. Inukami! could have been another interesting choice, too bad scans stopped. Toradora! (this one a lot more mainstreamed) is questionable 'cause he's not really a loser, but it was one of the freshest romance shounen came out recently so I highly suggest it if you didn't try it. Oh and I was almost forgetting Sankarea, which fits very well. Velvet Kiss too, but there is a lot sex in this one.

If you're ok with predictions, I think Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai could go that way. Countrouble probably. Nyan Koi! too. Koko ga Uwasa no El Palacio kind of. Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko maybe (but can he be considered a loser just 'cause he's a pervert?). Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha could work for the reverse (loser girl, but I'd say more just your normal average cute heroine than loser). Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to but this is more a parody series and it's unluckily that he's gonna pair up with any girl of the story.

Hope that helps, some are a bit of a stretch but still you can try them if you run out of stuff. wink
