I agree with you, 100%. That was the most gag-inducing p.o.s. that I'd ever read in my life. That moron was raped/groped/felt up by every...single...freaking...guy...in the series. I'm usually a pretty easy going person when it comes to rating people's works, I really am, but in my opinion, renai shijo shugi had not even ONE redeeming quality.
The 'heroine' was about as useful as two grains of sand in a box. What a waste of time and effort. I use the word 'effort' quite loosely, btw 🙄

Don't like or hate may not be the right word to describe my feeling... I think 'I lost interest' and 'It's not my cup of tea' may be more... correct.
The series that I don't really favor are:
Vampire Knight... I've dropped that a long time ago. The art is quite nice and the beginning was quite good but then things got too chaotic and I don't know what's what anymore so I stopped reading it.
Nana... This is exactly what I meant by 'not my cup of tea'. The idea of the story is quite interesting although since the beginning I was already disturbed by some stuffs but the story itself was interesting so I continued reading it. But after awhile I lost my interest altogether so I dropped it.
I'm actually pretty lenient with shoujo... Like I don't have any expectation before reading a series 'cause I know more than 50% of shoujo series are... cliches. Cliches in shoujo are like waters in human body. So some shoujos I read to pass time are just... well, no expectation in the beginning neither disappointment nor excitement in the ending. But yeah... some still left a bad taste in my mouth.

I just DO NOT like Ouran High School Host Club. It's weird, too much going on on every page, and just plain messy.
Agreed. I also don't like NANA.

"Cliches in shoujo are like waters in human body." 😃
Many different opinions about Nana. I love that series but still have to admit that Nana is too dramatic sometimes 😐

The heroine does nothing productive. All she does is pine for the male lead, and on top of that he has the personality of a cardboard box, in my opinion. Yes, he's nice, we get it already. I wish Mayuka was the heroine. She at least has character development, which is more than I can say for Ninako. 🙁
I really hate it when mangakas pull the
"It wasn't that she didn't care about romance, she was just blind to TRU WUV, that's all!!! Oh yeah, and she's also going to fall for the first male character she met, just like every other shojo." card. I had high hopes for Haruhi, but... 😔

almost every one listed i dont like but vampire knight and ohshc i hate, they both started out great but turned stupid somewhere along the way. big let down like opening a large, heavy Christmas present and finding out its a dictionary.
Also i like skip beat it was very funny and interesting until it got to like ch 140 then it development and plot went out the window. but seeing as how it got that far without losing my interest i decided to ride out this no progress period in hopes of some sort of development.

Vampire Knight... Somehow that twist just... 🤢
Ouran High school Host Club is...interesting but not my thing.
Also some smutty manga which is full of cliches about a girl who cut some guys hair off (at the start) and the guy randomly loved her even though she is 'ugly' and nerdy. Koi koi waskijasf? It is called a long & hard to remember name.
Simply another normal human being...

That manga isn't just full of cliches, it's THE manga series listing about 95% of ALL shoujo cliches!
Kyou, Koi wa Hajimema...something. That's as far as I got before my brain activity dropped even further from remembering about it.
Love is so bad.

The Wallflower - so... draggy... no... DEVELOPMENT. -dies-
Kyou, Koi wo Hajimemasu - Both leads are unlikeable and annoying, though the male gets better.
Vampire Knight - It just became all WTFish.
Hot Blooded Woman (Is it still shoujo if it's a manhwa?) - Couldn't take it anymore. I can't take Hwang Mi Ri anymore. Does the woman ever take a holiday?!
Arakure, Kaichou wa Maid-sama!, Special A - Just... argghhhh.
My Heavenly Hockey Club - Something doesn't sit right with me and this one...
[Good Morniing Call] (It used to be popular, at least... I think?) - Just got so boring. I still finished it, though. (:
Works by Takada Rie make me feel bleh inside. D:

I agree with most posted already, with not liking Vampire Knight, Kaichou wa maid-sama and some others, but I need to add one that just didn't stick with me:
Kimi ni Todoke: Yeah, finally a manga where the main doesn't fall for the guy in 2 chapters, but I feel the story itself is just dragging and repeating the same things over. It's too predictable to me. There's really no plot but.. finding out you like someone?
I also don't really feel... a liking to the characters. So, the main is a kind boy and the girl is a shy misunderstood teen.. Not new to me. :\
Of course, this is just my oppinion. Sorry if this dissapointed you.

I'll admit that I sometimes read Shoujo. However I never finish them because of how boring they get (It maybe because I am a guy). For some reason I was able to finish Tokyo Crazy Paradise, which I am still confused why I even continued reading it after 10 chapters.
