Hello, I'm currently looking for pretty much any interesting/popular and engaging/released often/completed manga. However, I would like to exclude manga that have yaoi/yuri/ecchi/excessive nudity and excess seinen. Mild seinen is fine as long as it doesn't lead to suicides and the like. And erm, mild to no gore please. ^_^


Anyone have any ideas?

Seinen isn't really a genre, but a demographic. So what's more seinen and what's less seinen? Here's a list from the database: http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?perpage=50&ge nre=Seinen&exclude_genre=Adult_Ecchi_Hentai_Horror_M ature_Tragedy_Yaoi_Yuri&filter=scanlated&orderby= rating

not sure exactly what you want but these seem to fit i think
Beck
Bloody monday
Liar Game
Break blade

Ah, my bad. Didn't know that about Seinen. Well........... what about something similar to Bakuman? Anyone know any manga like that?

Koimoku is like a poor man's version of Bakuman, but it's got a lot of ecchi stuff in it.

If you aren't adverse to sci-fi, try Battle Angel Alita

Skip Beat! (VERY Slow Romantic comedy... All about showbiz & getting revenge [Right now on has 188 chapters.])

Gintama. (Just random fun makes & fun of ALL walks of life.) [Now has about 398 chapters...]

Kamisama Hajimemashita. [Fantasy/Comedy/Live-in Situation]

Noblesse. Colorful webcomic. Comedy/Action/Fantasy. [Also about 200 chapters..]

Oresama Teacher. Action/Comedy...(Delinquents trying to reinvent themselves, while still beating people up.) [About 80? chapters.]

Gokusen. Female Yazuka trying to be a teacher. Action/Comedy/Martial Arts. ~Finished.

~At least to me these are very enaging & interesting.

Good suggestions! ^_^ Anyone else have any others as well?

all those should be released monthly and are pretty good:
Iris Zero supernatural, school life
Bonnouji slice of life, comedy
Yumekui Merry action, supernatural
Akagami no Shirayukihime fantasy romance

completed:
Melo Holic romance, comedy, drama
Hoshi no Samidare action, supernatural
Double Arts adventure, comedy

________________
in need of romance?
uncommon, sad, sweet

I second that, it's good stuff.

Dengeki Daisy a good shoujo romance series (you could give it a try even if you don't read shoujo) Edit: I forgot, that there were no updates for a while, which is kind of sad
Immortal Rain action, adventure, romance, complete
Please Save My Earth the story is to complicated to describe in just a few words... it's complete
Can't See Can't Hear But Love drama, but somewhat heartwarming, gets regular releases
Fujimura-kun Mates really well done comedy/parody, gets regular updates
Gokusen the only josei manga which I liked (haven't read many though), complete
Karin romance with vampires, quite decent, complete
Full Metal Alchemist or you could go watch Brotherhood if you haven't yet (though it misses some of the early chapters)
Magico (IWAMOTO Naoki) nice action adventure series, gets regular releases

Hmmmm the trouble is, I've already read about 75% of the manga that everyone has suggested so far. I'm sorry for asking for more suggestions. Thank you for the suggestions so far! (They're all pretty good)

Anyone more ideas? Akagami no Shirayukihime was a pretty good find actually.

How about you make your lists public? At least the complete and reading one.

Since no one mentioned it earlier:
Otoyomegatari - good stuff, through the releases are not too often

These are my personal favorites:
Completed:
Ga-Rei
Kurohime
Shin Angyo Onshi (manhwa)
On-going:
Annarasumanara (webtoon)
Beelzebub
Chronicles of the Cursed Sword (manhwa)
Noblesse (webtoon)
Tasogare Otome x Amnesia
Tokyo ESP (Ga-Rei's mangaka)
Tower of God (webtoon)

If you liked Akagami no Shirayukihime, you'll like Ciel. They're a bit similar.

Other than that...
Liar Game (similar to Death Note)
Cheese in the Trap
Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaete mo Omaera ga Warui! (it does have a smaller english title but i forgot what it was)
Pandora Hearts
Nowhere Boy
