Could you give some feedback about what you though of the manga that was recommended to you?

Angel Densetsu - really liked it for the misunderstood protagonist and creepiness
Beelzebub - read it till ~90th chapter, Oga and Furuichi were a great comedy duet, generally the only reason i read it was them
Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoiyo!! Masaru-san - way, way too random, really disliked it, didn't even get past 3rd chapter i think
GTO - great stuff, really liked the comedy in it, Onizuka is a character that one can't forget
Joshikousei - i watched the anime and read the manga till 2nd volume, generally generic, didn't particularly like it or dislike, the sequel is nastier and i like it
Azumanga Daioh/Yotsuba& - those are what i consider masterpieces, easy to digest and really upbeat
Gintama - couldn't handle the amount of references
Gyagu Manga Biyori - too random
Makuhari, Idejuu! - no scans so couldn't check them out
School Rumble - really liked the anime, the comedy of mistakes in it was brilliant - the manga seemed rather mediocre
Zippy Ziggy - crazy parent and child, thats the stuff i love too, it has the awesome korean humour
Hajime no Ippo - i hate boxing so i couldn't get through first volume
All-Rounder Meguru - great stuff but its not Eden, i dislike Meguru greatly
Holyland - awesome stuff, really liked how Yuu gets stronger and stuff, wasn't too much angst (i dislike angst greatly)
Kenji - can't remember why exactly i disliked it but i didn't like it certainly
The Breaker - i liked the main story, heard the "sequel" is bad so i didn't even give it a whirl as i never finished reading the main story (stopped on 2 last chapters)
Kenka Shoubai - its rather nasty but i guess i sorta liked the few chapters i read, i hated the computer graphics though

Try the prequels Bad Company and Shounan Junaigumi.

Oh, that's too bad. Gintama, if any, is a masterpiece.

Gyagu Manga Biyori - too random
I was going to recommend Nekojiru Udon and other Nekojiru stuff, but if you didn't like Gyagu Manga Biyori I'm not sure if you'd like Nekojiru either. But feel free to try it.

I think I've got scan on at least one of them, and might be able to get at least a volume of two of the other one to scan if you're interested.
Some you might want to check out:
B.Reaction!
Ultra Red
Teppuu
The God of High School
How do you feel about swords?

B.Reaction! - read it, really liked it till it got rushed 🙁
Ultra Red - i have 2 chapters of it but i can't really tell what exactly annoys me in it, i just don't seem to like it
Teppuu - now that thing is hilarious, exactly what i was looking for!
The God of High School - i hate the form and it kinda feels halfassed, i will give it a try again later though
Makuhari, Idejuu! - if you could, yes, please, Makuhari looks like something i'd like just from the character designs, don't know about Idejuu! though
I'll try Bad Company/Shounan Junaigumi at some point but currently i want something other than a sequel/prequel

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei for the first request.
I've watched three seasons of the anime and i have to say that i have enough for my lifetime of this kind of bizzarness.

Now that I think of it, do you mean scanlations? I meant raw scans.

Excuse the few years old bump but mayhaps some new series were released in the vein or maybe some were translated?
