Um, hey there people. I saw this thread and it was exactly what I was looking for!!! Anyway, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to recommend any Seinen or Shonen that fit the thread?? I've tried reading Shoujo but it just doesnt work for me ( I'm a Dude,the supposedly "older" females annoy me and I just dislike the common art style). Any recommendations would be highly apreciated 😀
If one were to have a lengthy conversation with the wife of the 'x'th president of the United States where 'x' is defined as the number of years Bob Barker hosted 'The Price is Right' to the nearest year minus the amount of golden rings one would receive on the 5th day of Christmas in accordance to the traditional English Christmas carol 'The 12 Days of Christmas' multiplied by 4, what condition might they have?

I guess something along the lines of maybe a fresh graduate, 22+ yrs old, who just entered the working world and fell for maybe his boss or new neighbour who is a divorcee.
Roughly i want some distinguished difference in standing and maturity between the couple, which usually comes to big age gaps. At the same time i dont want the guy to be a brat in train of thought, which is why i mention "working guy" since they realize the harshness of reality and start to act rational and not follow their emotions. Like the woman is in her early-mid 30s while the guy is early 20s. I added the "divorcee" part since they tend to be way more mature than your average older woman. Most manga of this genre has a young brat male lead coupled with an onee-san type female, not what im looking for. Basically young adult man X mature woman.
Well, that would be hard to find since mostly the couple has to cater to the majority of Japanese reader's taste- they value stark contrasts...
I have never seen a divorcee as a protagonist- a married woman would be as close as it gets - there is something to happiness ch 4 n 5 of cherish

Man, why isn't Natsu e no Tobira listed? It's one of the best, if not the best, out there.
added, though i dont like such overtly dramatic mangas...

I am currently looking for a manga with noticeable difference in the age. I liked gokusen, onegai sensei, uxu, and looking for something similar. I dont care if its a simple shojo or to H/shotocon or w.e.
I have looked at most of links given, and since about more than half of them are the hs girl likes ms boy, or us girl likes hs boy, or something similar, its not really what i am into. I like that noticeable age difference.
Can you help me out? (and i hope it is translated, but it doesnt have to be)

Hey, BimboSilly, are you still updating this list?
I'm surprised I only found it only now. I got some more titles for your list:
Rising Impact It has a 9 year old boy and a 21 year old woman. The romance (if you can call it such) is pretty innocent, there isn't any sexual attraction there, but those two sure like each other.
At the end of the manga there is time skip and guess what? They're married and even have a kid.
There was another kid in the series who had a major crush on his teacher, but it was mostly one sided and he ended up with someone else.
Kiba no Tabishounin - The Arms Peddler - kind of like Kurohime and Claymore, but 100% more awesome.
I'm not sure where it is heading in terms of romance. Right now there is also this girl who is about the boy's age.
Oh, you excluded Kurohime and Claymore from your list, not that I really care. Kurohime turned into crap after first few volumes and Claymore had very little actual romance going on.
They get separated relatively quick and they are yet to reunite after the time skip, though Raki turned from a wimp into a badass.
sycklify if you didn't find what you are looking for on the list, how about making a new request thread?

Why make a new request thread, when there is already a "older woman, younger man" thread, specially one with so many mangas (j/kdramas) already in it? (plus, I also rose up from the dead back in 2011 was the last one, and newer people can now see the list)
Kono S Mi yo! to add to your list. Adult. but not hentai. In kono 22 yr to 30yrold the main love... lots of differnet girls in between >.>

i did a search on the first page, but didnt have time to check the rest x.x. did anyone suggest puppy lovers? dude is like 11 and i think the chick is like 17 or something(dont remember well)
and if you experience an odd feeling of recollection by the cover. the artist is the same as nana to kaoru and the chick looks VERY similar in both looks and expressions.

Ah Puppy Lovers, I think the guy was 14 and the girl was 20. I dropped it because it was Borderline H (or really close) and it really didn't suit my taste. Well the age gap is there I guess.
The ones with noticeable age difference:
Please Save My Earth
Dear Mine
Merupuri
Yoru Made Matenai - I didn't like it, but there was some age difference
Yu no Hana Tsubame
Otoyome-gatari - good stuff
Kono Oneesan wa Fiction Desu!?
What the hell is that gigantic wall of text? This is a broad type that can't really be archived. Ane-Doki is misplaced and DISPATCH!! is not included to begin with, while the list seems to be no longer updated either.

There is also Saki(20) x Wataru(13) in Hayate no Gotoku:
Those two got surprisingly lot of development later in the manga.
