I could not find an option how to search what I am looking for...so please forgive me if I am a bit demanding.....if you can recommend me something, that would be really awesome!

I am looking for anime that's shoujo, action/adventure, romance, with superpowers, fun, and cute, BUT does not include yaoi or yuri (sorry, please don't judge, but I don't like these themes).

More details:
Anime that has satisfying ending. Has really really good story.
Handsome, or important characters not killed.
Not drama (because it's tiring to cry) or gory/horror (I'm scared).
Not hiatus, like hunter x hunter, or most manga I know.
Completed, and the same with it's mange version. (because I just saw alice academy and the manga is not the same as the anime :/ )
Maybe, just short anime? Like Daddy long legs (very satisfying ending, every episode is a pleasure), about 12-24 episodes.

During my breaks, I watch anime, and I search first if anime is good or not, but mostly, does not meet my expectation or maybe my way of searching is just wrong. Please please please, I am desperate to watch another satisfying anime! :3 thank you for understanding. I love you already!

Thank you! Zero no tsukaima sounds interesting. Will add this to my plan to watch. Can you recommend kamichama karin? Does this have a satisfying ending? I don't really care about spoilers. :)

Inu X boku SS is a good romance with hints of supernatural. The ending of the anime is satisfying, but you may not enjoy the manga's ending. There's little drama and cute characters. Plus the characters have this unique feeling to them that I haven't seen before.

If you're looking for a relaxing anime there is Akagami no Shirayuki-hime. It's a beautiful anime with little drama and amazing characters. The fairytale ambience is really nice too.

If you like magical girl animes, Cardcaptor Sakura is really good, although it's pretty long. Shugo Chara is good if you don't mind that it's targeted for a younger audience and is really really long.

Charlotte (short with nice art), fruits basket (classic with finished manga), Kaichou wa Maid-sama (one of my favorite romance anime), and Toradora (another amazing romance anime) are some other really good ones.

I saw madoka magica on your PTW, be careful because that's kinda gory/horror-ish.

1995's Fushigi Yuugi, adapts the manga quite closely if I recall. It's on Crunchyroll. It has nearly everything you list. I'm not sure what you mean by "no drama" but if by "drama" you mean "sad moments," I don't remember there being all that many. Some characters die but there are LOTS of characters and it isn't gory or violent. There are a couple homosexual/crossdressing characters but they it isn't made into a big deal and the yaoi/yuri themes are minimal. All-in-all, it sounds to me to be quite nearly what you are looking for.

Hanasakeru Seishounen - main characters don't die, is shoujo, has action and romance as well. There's a bit of drama too. Anime and manga both completed, although I haven't read the manga so I don't know how closely the anime follows it.

There are definitely sad moments and sure, there are "lots" of characters but
Fushigi Yuugi is a great anime (& manga) but if you don't want important characters to be killed, then don't watch. I cried during this series tbh, lol...

+1 Spice and Wolf
+1 Hanasakeru Seishounen

Sugar Sugar Rune- It's a lighthearted Shojo anime about two witch girls who are sent to the human world in order to compete in becoming the queen of the witch world. It's cute and very fun, i was never bored while watching it and the characters are very likable, especially Chocolat. No one dies and the ending was satisfiying and complete! I wholeheartedly recommend you watch it!

I totally forgot about that. Oh, yeah, and Miaka's friend's entire storyline... . Yeah, you're right, there's tons of sad stuff in this show that I entirely forgot all about.

@mrmarketing2000

Both 11-nin Iru! and Princess Tutu check all your items and are more than good… I have both in my fav' list.
I haven't read the manga of Princess Tutu so I don't know how the anime compares to the manga, but 11-nin Iru! follows perfectly the manga.

Zero no Tsukaima doesnt have a great story at all, but, fill all the requests. And about Kamichama Karin, i dont watched yet, but the score is nice, so go ahead.

I just saw the first episode, it is a very exciting and dramatic story. But, I think the story is not yet complete?

You know what... might want to read the manga after watching but that's up to you.. lol. Good story though and fit all of your requirements.. except 1.. either way check it out sometime! It'll be worth it :D

(Kinda didn't read the ending part)

Yes, exactly! T_T I was so upset with Alice academy. I really thought (SPOILER) that Mikan will be like "special" and most powerful student, and that anime will show more of the romance, but nope, it broke my heart. I don't want to read the manga because , hehehe, well, it's black and white and hurts my eyes. I also want anime because it moves, I can study animation more. :/
