he's dedicated to roses is the one of the most retarded mangas ever.... fruits baskets suck too, i hated tohru, totally hated her and didn't really understand the appeal of it at all really, besides how hot kyo is, but a lot of shoujos have hot guys, kyo's character, you could probably find someone just as similar.
another i hate is probably ouran host high school club... was really weird and i don't like harem at all really. the main girl also had no spunk or character that made me drawn to her.
hmmm... vampire knight.... i love vampires and this manga just kinda made me hate them. now i'm totally werewolves.
that's all i can about for now though. probably have more but can't think of them. it's just too early in the morning, i should go to sleep

Usually, I'll read pretty much anything aimed at females. Really, the only title I can think of is Perfect Girl Evolution (and I've been putting way more thought into this than a normal human should). Couldn't stand that series.

I never could get into Fushigi Yuugi. Or any of Yu Watase's works come to think of it. She's always too heavy with the Rape as Plot Device.

Vampire knight - It started off great but then just spiraled downhill.
Kaichou wa maid-sama- No matter how hard I tried, the plot simply bored me.
Special A- It kept going in circles and was way too long (and boring) for my tastes
And that's pretty much it.

Fruits Basket Not really that interesting, annoying too
Kimi ni Todoke Slow plot and somewhat annoying characters
Shugo Chara! Just plain annoying
Lovely Complex Cliche& has no redeeming factor
Nana Most of the characters are so stupid and annoying, also the story is boring
Perfect girl Evolution still reading this though, I guess I'm hoping for some movement in the plot and for it to be less annoying. I just hate how the main character is in chibi mode and the supposed comedic acts of the characters are just annoying, immature and stupid
No one gives a shit what trite garbage you write here.

shugo chara. It just bored me
Shinjo Mayu's work e.o The guys are ugly and the girls are always brain-dead.
Vampire Knight The first vol. was interesting but her stupid "deciding between Kaname and Zero" was a drag.
Fruits Basket I just looked at the cover and hated it. The fact that everyone was all "OMG" about made it a big turn off.
Fushigi Yuugi I started watching the anime a little but the plot got extremely boring.
Mostly manhwas by Hwang Mi Ri. I also "looked" at the cover page of He's Dedicated to Roses and didn't like it. It also didn't help when people said it had no character development. >.>
Love Monster was horrible. I tried reading the first chapter and nothing clicked.
I don't criticize mangas easily but these are impossible. -___-""

Vampire Knight - I couldn't get passed the first chapter. The way it instantly set the main characters up as rich/gorgeous/talented/powerful/etc. was a real turnoff for me.
Fruits Basket - I don't really hate it. It's more like I'm mad at it. It wastes so much potential, the main girl is really annoying, and the way the eyes are drawn makes me feel vaguely ill. I do like a few of the characters though.
Shugo Chara - Boring as all get out. And it kind of felt snobby or something. I wanted to like it because it has a cat boy, but I just couldn't.
Also, anything that has a really weak main girl or a tomboy that's trying to be girly. Or the main guy is all dark for no good reason. Or when there's a ton of backstabbing and trying to steal each other's boyfriends. For that matter, love triangles annoy me too. They're almost always poorly executed and they do nothing but make me sad for the guy that doesn't get the girl.
I guess I'm just not a very big fan of shojo in general. lol
Though I do like certain ones like Zettai Kareshi, Otomen, and Ouran.

Ouran High School Host Club IDK why but I can't bring myself to like it. Everyone talks about it and goes crazy over it but..I don't find it captivating.
Most of HMR's manhwas (pretty harsh. i know lol) - I'm annoyed at her drawings and the plot drags on a lot. Her characters always turn out the same. The girl is either tomboy, rich girl, or a snob that turns good. The boy is a jjang who is amazing at fighting.They're constantly fighting, etc etc. And it always takes place in high school =.=
I tried He Dedicated to Roses because the plot was twisted for once, thinking it might be good but boy, was I wrong. I couldn't believe I was reading it. The bitches here were so annoying and the boys were so weak LOL. NO WAY.
Fruits Basket I actually watched the anime a long time ago and I wasted my time. I had high hopes for it, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out the way I hoped for. The girl ( forgot her name) had a weak personality no matter how hard she tried to fight back the bad things happening >.>. But I have a weak spot for it b/c it's one of the first anime I've watched >.<

Vampire knight - it started off great, and had some good twists. Then it starts to annoy me... I'm still reading it though, but only hoping that something good would happen.

I feel the same way, though I like Honey Hunt too. 😉
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.
