i just finished reading FROM FAR AWAY by hikawa kyoko. it reminded me so much of fushigi yuugi where the girl ended up in another world/dimension then she met her one true love, blah blah blah. both heroines are some kind of a klutz but fight back whenever necessary.
so, i would like to ask for suggestions for mangas like these. where the girl was transported to another world,where the guy was sooo cool in protecting the girl no matter what, etc.
i mean,i looooove it when the guy goes such great lengths just to be with her, to protect her, yada, yada, blah blah blah.
hope u cud help me. i would really appreciate it.thanks! 😀

Not exactly what you're looking for -
but in Shinobi Life, a guy from the past gets
transported to the future (and falls in love).
The guy has this guardian function, so there are
lots of moments where he protects the heroine.

You may try Ryou. The heroine goes back to 13th century feudal Japan. The mangaka used the historical facts and blended them so well into the story. ^_^

Escaflowne is like that.
There's also:
Haruka: Beyond the Stream of Time
Inuyasha and
Fushigi Yuugi Genbu Kaiden (a story chronologically prior to Fushigi Yuugi).
If you've ever thought or said "Nice Guys finish last" and really meant it, then you should probably read this LJ post by DivaLion. It's incredibly insightful whether you're male or female.

Try Saver, it's kinda has the same concept except the girl is actually STRONG, cool and able to protect herself. xD
never read these, but seem like ones:
Anatolia Story
Ouke no Monshou
From Far Away
Legend of Nereid

All the ones I know of a girl being transported to a different land/era have already been mentioned but try these for 'cool guy protects girl'
Vampire Knight
Full Metal Panic!
Kaze no stigma (light novel)
Angel Sanctuary
Rurouni Kenshin
Akuma no Ororon
Black Bird
Fruits Basket
Hopes this helps. Some are more relevant than others though. Welcome to MU btw.
