They get together at the same point in the manga version of LoveCom but it's farther from the end 'cause they switch to "can they stay together" instead. In ParaKiss they get together almost immediately, it's very different from My Love Story but amazingly good. The others i mentioned drag out the getting together process a lot especially KnT. GIrl Friends does too, but its only like 6 volumes long so it doesn't really seem like it to me. If i had to recommend just one i'd say to read Paradise Kiss.

Urusei Yatsura was the anti-harem before harem anime was really a thing.

boom boom boom posted:Negima is set in the same universe as and shares chaarcters with Love Hina? Yeah basically. Motoko's school/sword style is the recurring element that has shown up repeatedly through all 3 series. Not too surprising considering the Motoko centric chapters were essentially the prototype for Negima and UQ Holder, and I think Akamatsu himself said that she was his favorite character.

I kinda want to read Negima, just because I've heard that he started it as another harem manga but then turned it in to a battle manga when his publishers weren't paying attention. Which is amusing to me

Bad Seafood posted:I need more shoujo in my life. If you read one shoujo you've read like 70% of them. Also Orange Yane annoyed me because when he finally had sex with the woman magically all of his problems were solved, he got like 15 promotions at work, and now whoops the only problem he has is too many women want to gently caress him (but he is of course totally devoted to his not-wife because he is perfect now and the other women only want to use him). It's like a salaryman's fantasy complete with immaculate public image.

I liked it. I know some people were put off by the very beginning because there's some kissing without consent, so take that into consideration. There's also an anime but I didn't think it was as good as the manga. The manga is still ongoing but it's also reached that point similar to Kimi ni Todoke where it has extended past the point where it really should have ended, but it's only a fraction as long as KnT and moved a LOT faster.

Namtab posted:Dubcon kissing is my kink Cool, I'm caught up with all the other mangas I'm reading(except Blood Blockade Battlefront. I don't know why but if a book shop has any volumes at all it has like, three different non consecutive volumes. I just need an excuse to drive across town to go to the store that has volume 7) so I wanted to start a new series.

Everyone whose all, "Wow! All this shoujochat makes me want to be a preteen girl, too!" should read House of the Sun/Taiyou no Ie. It's really good and cute. It's as much (or more) about family as romance, and doesn't do the all-too-common thing where it goes on past its welcome.

I admit, I still haven't gotten far into Ouran High School Host Club, mostly because of the strong feeling I get that I've read or seen a lot of it in other shoujo before. I assume something changes at some point that people love it for.

Possibly because you're reading the manga and not watching the better anime instead
