| Dengeki Daisy was alright.Didn't quite manage to impress me much. There are many more shoujo manga,that are far better (as others have obviously pointed out). Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan Life Diamond dust ( webtoon not here on MAL) Koukou Debut Hana Kimi etc are much deserving to point out a few. |

| Kodomo no Omocha I only finish reading it months ago. Really surprise by the quality. |

| I have been enjoying it quite a bit until last 2-3 chapters.. just seems slow and a bit boring with Rena's arc. Kurosaki and Teru need some progress soon. The whole "we are about to kiss, oh wait, goofy scene, everyone pretend nothing happened" thing is getting too old and repetitive... EDIT: I'm at chapter 56 |

| I read Dengeki Daisy and I don't think it deserves that place. Not because it was bad, definitely wasn't but overall I would give it a 7, because I think It was too long and there wasn't anything original about it. Dengeki Daisy is basically a very well done cliche which I enjoyed. It didn't leave me an everlasting impression but it gave me entertaiment and that's is mostly what I needed. Why I think Dengeky Daisy has such a high score: -It isn't controversial. It's the kind of manga that most people will enjoy, even if they don't consider it a masterpiece. -Even though it isn't ground breaking it is very good for what it's supposes to be - a fun shoujo manga. - Most people rate manga's only based on their enjoynment which is not bad, enjoynment is a lot of the times the most important thing but you have to understand a good story is not only entertainment. For exapmle : Yesterday I finished reading Ichigo chanell. If you asked me if I liked it I would say "Yeah". But I gave it a 6. Why is that? Because even though my teenage girl self enjoyed the cheesy romance the story is unoriginal, characters lack development and the art kind of sucks. I have to be honest with myself and look at the story criticaly. But you know not all of us feel the need to look at a story so deeply and that is completely fine. - Since it's already so popular new manga readers might think it's really good, because they haven't read a lot of shoujo manga's yet. - And the most important - PERSONAL TASTE. I read all the post responding to this topic and most people said that they enjoyed Dengeki Daisy but they don't think it's the best. And when people said their opinion about Dengeki Daisy they continiued by listing theyr favorite shoujo's. Looking through people's top shoujo's a lot of the time I agreed but other times I thought their favorite shoujo manga is worse that Dengeki Daisy. And that's because we have our personal taste. For example: one of my favorite shoujo manga is Life and It's always strange for me how unpopular it is, because I loved it. But one of the main reasons why I liked it so much is because the themes the story is dealing with hit a really personal spot in my heart that some people might not have. The ideas that were presented in the manga helped me overcome a really hard period of my life. So Life is my favorite manga, even if some of you dislike it. P.S. forgive me if my english is bad, not a native speaker. |
| I would nominate for "best shôjô" X or Gensômaden Saiyûki (and its direct sequel titles) but they will probably never be completed. |
| Full Moon Wo Sagashite is the best shoujo manga and anyone who says otherwise is WRONG. :'D |

| I've not read Dengeki Daisy yet...I'll probably get round to it eventually but the initial premise doesn't really grab me, y'know. Nana is technically a Shoujo, so that's my personal number one of the genre!! It's one of the only Shoujo manga series that hasn't left me bored part way through...the relationships and many romances never feel one dimensional, nor do they become stale. Other standouts are Kamisama Hajimemashita and Kaze Hikaru (that one really needs more love)! |

| For me, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun is definitely the best without a doubt. Beautiful story with equally beautiful art to match. I almost cried when it ended. |
| I'm a huge fan of shoujo manga and have probably read too much of it. But there's no question that my favorite would have to be Skip Beat! for obvious reasons (to those who read it). Others I absolutely love (and recommend) as well are: The One Ouran High School Host Club Kaichou wa Maid-sama Gakuen Alice Kamisama Hajimemashita (I can keep going on and on so I'll keep the list at 5.) Ah, but Dengeki Daisy is also really good though. xD Strawberrycake48 said: Nana is technically a Shoujo, so that's my personal number one of the genre!!

It's one of my biggest faves (if only Ai Yazawa would continue it already :/) but its mature themes make it Josei, not Shoujo~ |

I dunno, whatever it is...I love NANA!! |

| I consider myself a shoujo freak, and I can assure you that Dengeki Daisy isn't worthy of being the top shoujo spot on mal, there's plenty of better shoujo, but all in all, you can't really come to a solid top spot shoujo, cause end of the day it all depends on the person's liking. Like for me I have a lot of fav shoujos, but I wouldn't consider any of em the best, all because they're all really great in their own way. |

| Dengeki Daisy was interesting at first but it became boring (for me) later on.., I even had to put it on hold because of that. So yeah, I don't think it deserve to be on top shoujo manga here in MAL. |
 |
| I haven't read much shoujo manga, and I'm not a fan anymore... But if I'd choose one from those I've read, it would probably be Skip Beat. :) Dengeki Daisy on the other hand quite caught my interest with the synopsis. Unlike with Skip Beat, I can't remember why I put it on-hold... Probably because it got me bored. |

| A lot of shoujo manga in general tend to be worse than other demographics but the best shoujo imo is Sunadokei. |
 |
| I really like Dengeki Daisy.It was really cute,emotional and entertaining to read.I liked it a lot.But I still don' think it's actually the best.I would say NANA but it's more Josei than actually Shoujo.My favorite Shoujo should be Akatsuki no Yona because it's really nice to read. |
 I will not believe that everything is controlled by fate. ll X ll |
| I personally think Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Kitchen Princess, and Full Moon wo Sagashite are among the best shoujo out there. But then again, I have yet to read Dengeki Daisy... so who knows? :P |

| I thought Dengeki Daisy was ok, my favorite is Ao Haru Ride |
“You flounder through life, struggling desperately so you won't drown, even though you would float if you'd just relax.” |
| I used to consume so much shoujo, and Dengeki Daisy was actually the last one I read before switching to a different genre. I read it because I really like Beast Master from the same author and the premise sounded interesting. However, the progression of the story and development were disappointing, too slow and too predictable. My top favorite is still Mars. It left a lasting impact on the psychology of trauma and a beautiful depiction of overcoming them. For more lighthearted shoujo, my tops are still Ouran, The Wallflower, and Beauty Pop. |
