mmmm im searching for a new show and ... im not sure myself what to look for. As of late ive been watching shows like clannad, ef a tale of mem/mel, and well... if you check my list youll know. But im trying to find a new show to get into but id really like for it to have romance and good artwork. A big plus if the girl and guy dont like each other at first. Toradora was an excelant example.

Ghost Hunt for something spook with romance. Or Monster for something just epic-spooky.

Ayakashi - Japanese Classical Horror is abviously intended to be spooky, but I think 1 or 2 of the 3 arcs are also heavy on romance so you may enjoy it. Not very comedic though.
I probably regret this post by now.

Shuffle! would typically fit all the categories of romance, comedy, and spookyness. Spooky as in... girls go yandere unexpectedly. It is a harem though, but the guy chooses the girl and lives with her after.

One's you haven't seen that may fit that category of spooky romance:

3x3 Eyes - Old OVA anime, but still one of the best and has supernatural feel to it
Chrno Crusade - romance is subtle, but spooky it definitely is
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni - forget romance, just watch this...nao! Spooky doesn't near describe this one. Probably close to disturbing.
Vampire Hunter D - whilst elements of romance is minimal(fro what I remember), spook meter may make up for it, comes as 2 movies.
Rental Magica - 2 girls going for 1 guy in a supernatural setting

If your just looking for plain romance with a tsundere in it, try these:

Aishiteruze Baby - guy has to take care of his lil niece due to her mom abandoning her, enter tsundere classmate who went through similar probz as a kid, guy knws how to break her now...or something like that
Tales of the Abyss - mix of action/romance...chick as well as everyone in the party is meh with the main lead at first
Suzuka - good romance anime if you like your tsundere's
Myself ; Yourself - Main heroine play tsundere for first few episodes(totally disturbed chick so who can blame her), anyways enough for a romantic ending
Cross Game - romance is subtle, and tsundere is plenty
B Gata H Kei - romantic comedy with a wannabe tsundere
Itazura na Kiss - reverse role where the male is the tsundere

enjoy

I'd agree with you on Ghost Hunt if not for the unsatisfactory ending.
Monster was definitely good, though!

Ghost hunt is spooky, though. Depends on what kind of spooky you mean. Ghost Hunt is spooky in a not -really- scary sort of way, while a show like Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (horror genre, I guess) will give you a chill down your spine with some of the psychotic happenings.


You might like Kobato. The girl and guy don't end up having feelings until midway through the show, (or more towards the end). But it's not as though they hate each other. The guy is cold towards the girl, while the girl is happy and carefree. So it's not the type where they hate each other and fall in love, if that was what you meant. Still a good show and definitely worth checking out, though. It also has comedy and nice artwork.

Vampire Knight is another you might like. Good artwork, nice story, a bit of action here and there. Not too much comedy, but there is some.

Lastly, I'm recommending True Tears, which I cannot believe I am doing. Romance, comedy, nice artwork. Personally, I didn't like the show because of the way the couples went (there is a love triangle), but you might like it since you liked ef. (I also didn't like ef, and I happened to watch this show right along with it! XD) But yeah, you might like it, even if I did not.
