Title speaks for itself really. I've been reading a bundle of action, adventure types plots with impulsive and young protagonists and frankly getting a bit bored of it. So now I'm looking for a manga where the protagonist is very old (as in hundreds or maybe even thousands of years old), immortal - and perhaps has wisdom to go along with those years. Would be great if the protagonist was something like a vampire or demon variety, but anything that fits the 'very old' category is fine! I'm mainly looking in the action/adventure/fantasy genre, but whatever genre is fine as well. Romance is a plus, but not necessary, and the protagonist can be male or female. thanks!

Immortal Rain
Hana to Akuma
Kieli
xxxHoLic I guess
the immortal/old one is always the 2nd main (who's not telling the story)

except for last very good romance in each of them

EatMan would be a good one to read, though it doesn't really have romance in it... But he's immortal
Vampire Juujikai - perfect match based on your preference
Trinity Blood - just want to add since I just remembered it.

thank you! Ive read a few but most Ive forgotten about and passed over, especially Noblesse. Funny Ive been passing Noblesse for ages and not even noticed that its exactly what I want.

Any more suggestions would be appreciated if there are any! Alot of these are male leads which is fine with me, but if there are any female immortal leads that would be great to!

Ao no Fuuin fits somewhat
Gan-Kon's heroine is a god
Zombie-Loan Male leads are sentient zombies
Mushi to Medama to Teddy Bear Guriko is immortal Rinnie is immortal

and later Sakaki is immortal as well

I wish there were more updates for Mushi to medama >.<

Btw, you should check out the [url]http://Immortality[/url] tag

Maybe a bit of spoiler, so just in case :

**Blood+ **has several immortal characters. I watched the anime, it's absolutely worth it. Pure awesomeness.
Durarara!! has one as well.

Also, I'm seconding Immortal Rain, Trinity Blood and Noblesse.

Oh, yeah.

Higurashi no naku koro ni (+ sequels) qualifies as well, and it's awesome, but you've got to love the style. And Umineko no naku koro ni fits as well, but I haven't watched (nor read) it yet.

Id
The protagonist may not be ancient or immortal, but he has all of the power, knowledge, and techniques of someone who was.

also King of Hell

both fit the "action/adventure/fantasy genre" that you wanted, with some romance on the side

It's from Gisele Alain, specifically the third chapter....I should probably put that under the picture I'm getting a lot of people asking me where it's from 🤣
