Hey Jumbosan here,
Currently I'm searching for hidden gem in Shoujo and Josei anime/manga. Also other hidden gem that maybe more than 8.00+.
Shoujo and Josei is one of my favourite genre due to how the romance was being depicted and able to express touching emotional story in various type of settings. Simple to say i love beautiful (sad,happy, bittersweet, angsty) story. The more it feelings it can convey, the better.
I like other genre too (Shounen, Seinen) since it the first reason i got into anime. What about you?
Other than that
I'm also an active otome gamer.
My favourite otome game are Bustafellow, Taishox Alice and also Black wolves saga. The list continues on....
Just say hi if you come over :)

I'm doing pretty well too, trying to survive adult life hahaha
Well I hadn't thought about it, but you can call it whatever you like :)
and what are your favorite visual novels?
oh I've never heard of Juuni Kokuki, but it looks interesting
Yeah sure, I'm trying to develop an rpg game, like Zelda or Final Fantasy, I've also tried to experiment with visual novels, and also with otome games, which from what I've read you like right? What are your favorites? Any that you can recommend me as a reference
and regarding composition I've been learning composition and I started uploading my compositions to youtube, and do you like anything related to music?
By the way, sorry for the late reply, I've been really busy with work and study this last month :'(
I hope you can rewatch prince of tennis there's a new season coming, I still love the story and enjoyed watching it hehe
I live in the countryside, so I actually don't go to many city doujinshi events. I do go if there's a work I'm really into, though. Sometimes, if there is a circle or a work I like, I buy it from a doujinshi shopping site for the past few years.
Wotaku_ni_Koi_wa_Muzukashii”... I've read all the manga, but sometimes there are many places where I think it's actually different. So I feel that the more otaku I am, the less I like this work, the less I like it. I think actual nerds would be fired as fast as possible if they had a job like the main character, and doujinshi activities don't allow them to spend time with their girlfriends, and it costs a lot of money. There are a lot of collaborative events and stuff in the city. In the piece, it was written as if I was earning money from my doujinshi activities, but in reality, the circles where I can earn money are quite valuable. Likewise, cosplaying is an expensive and time-consuming hobby. Well, I guess it's better to read them as romantic shoujo manga instead of otaku manga, I guess.
I think the reason I couldn't read Gakuen Alice was far from the reason you imagined it to be. Generally, when I read manga, I can hear this kind of voice actor speaking in my brain, so I don't like it when the main character speaks in Osaka dialect, even if it's only in the text.
So when a manga is made into an anime, if the voice actor's image is too far from the voice I imagined and replayed in my brain, I usually can't watch it.
As for the cosplayers, the address I put on MAL was not updated, so all the pictures were deleted at once, so I'll send you a message with the address of the Japanese cosplay site. If you find one you like, I'd be happy to let me know.
I remember like 4 years ago someone else here also recommended fire emblem mobile to me but I never got the chance to play it. Persona is another popular one. I've always wanted to get into jrpgs. I downloaded fate years ago due to someone's recommendation and due to it being one of my favorite anime series at the time, but my laptop got a virus because I downloaded something wrong and I've been scared since LOL
Pokemon was a favorite back in the days. I had pokemon black or black 2 (I don't really know the difference now) on 3ds and I would always look forward to playing that with friends. Some other favorites on the 3ds were Super Mario Bros and Super Smash Bros. Now Im not really into games, but I play Arena of Valor whenever I can.
It's just that sometimes an unexpected piece can be a person's favorite, and I may not find it interesting enough for me to recommend it. If it's not your cup of tea, it's a waste of my time and you can drop out and I'll be fine. It doesn't mean I'm offended.
I don't mean to imply that I'm an expert, because I read more than just shoujo manga. I'll never read anything I don't like, even if it's a well-known work. I'm past the point of regularly buying shoujo manga serials. I made a mistake in translation and worded it as if I'm still buying them today. Well, I bought them a few months ago, too.
I think the one I was buying for the longest period of time was Nakayoshi.The image is from "Hana to Yume.
Gakuen Alice" is a work that I bought the serial magazine "Hananayume" when the series started, but skipped it without reading it. The reason I didn't read it is because the main character speaks in Kansai dialect all the time, which annoys me, so it's not that I don't like the story or the artwork, it's just that I don't like the story or the artwork. I can forgive sub-characters speaking Kansai-ben like this, but I don't like main characters speaking Kansai-ben. Mystery novels with main characters who speak Kansai-ben also irritate me. So I usually read "Portrait of M and N" which was serialized before "Gakuen Alice".
I probably wouldn't be tempted to read romances other than shoujo manga and shounen manga. Or, in that case, I would probably be fine with women's manga or seinen manga.
I usually read light novels for women, too, and I can read romance novels in general books.
Besides, my mother is into romance light novels, so I have about 100 of them lying around in her room.
I don't use web tones. I don't have the time to work with WebTone because of the large number of works I have on hand. Also, my mother reads Webtoon, but I don't think I need to read it now, because the manga is like a picture book with large panels, so I think I can read it when I'm older. But thanks for the recommendation.
I'm trying not to add too much to my collection, but I find myself adding to it... I like CLAMP's works with careful drawing in the eyes, like in Leias, so I don't like the way the eyes are drawn from CC Sakura to the present.
I have all of the Saiunkoku monogatari and the Twelve Kingdoms light novels. I don't have the energy to read them again. I don't think these two will ever be adapted to manga because there are so many volumes of light novels, so I think it's better to read them all in light novels until the end or the latest edition. The Twelve Kingdoms has a lot of Chinese characters, even more than a regular novel, which makes it a tough work to read when you are older.
Well, I like Rayearth and The Twelve Kingdoms so much that I have even cosplayed them.
Aaaaah, I just remembered, you have Doraemon as your favorite character, don't you?
I recommend 07-Ghost's official doujinshi, which has a parody of Doraemon, and it was very funny and funny, and BASARA also has an official doujinshi, but it's usually included in a manga, so I wouldn't recommend that one.
maid-sama is in my heart always and whenever I see usui I still get butterflies haha. I love them!
yes I used to watch prince of tennis when I was a child and still love the anime. do you watch the new seasons? I'm really excited for the next tournament. I hope it gets animated..
for now I'm watching windbreaker and surprisingly Im enjoying it.. I've been catching up for the least season's anime. Im waiting for it to be completed before watching hahaha I love to binge watch and hate waiting every week T.T
aww.. that's a beautiful art of kimi ni todoke!
As for BASARA, it has been adapted into an anime, had its own magazine published before the manga was finished, has a novel version, and has an art book on sale, so it cannot be included in the hidden masterpieces list. Also, Fruits Basket, Skip Beat, and Yona of the Dawn are all serialized in Hana to Yume, and I think they are often mentioned together simply because they are in the same magazine.
I was a little excited about the commemorative book because the cover had a lame finish. I'm tired of reading the interview part, though, and there are more parts I haven't read.
No, it's not that I like them more than shounen manga, because I read half and half shounen manga and half shoujo manga. Recommendations, huh? I'll answer your friends when they ask, but since we've exchanged a few, I'll make a special list. Some of them are slightly different from yours in terms of picture preferences, so I'll just recommend that you check the "synopsis" to see if you like them.
I'm not a veteran. I'm the type of person who buys shoujo manga magazines regularly but never reads anything I don't like, so I consider myself a picky reader. I personally prefer longer serials, but I have a bookshelf full of them. The longest volume of shoujo manga I collect is 70 volumes. I wouldn't recommend them, though, because the pictures probably aren't your cup of tea.
Basically, I'm the type of person who reads all genres, shoujo, shounen, seinen, josei, etc. I don't read much just BL though. I don't really read BL, but I know most of the manga you've read, even if I haven't read them, so you don't have to recommend them to me. I dare say that some of them I haven't read because I don't like the pictures or the story.
It's enough that you are willing to recommend them to me.
Here's the list.
Oh, really? Looking at your list of manga, I thought that most of the works you read are more or less well-known works that are rated reasonably well. I didn't get the impression that you prefer to read hidden, underrated stories.
I think 7SEEDS and Basara are some of the more well-reviewed and well-known shoujo manga. Yumi Tamura works, I like them too. I recently read the anniversary book. I would recommend the commemorative book because it contained some hidden manga that were not included in the book of readings.
I feel like I read too many shoujo manga, so I'm a little jealous of you still having the potential to discover new ones, since I don't get to discover many new ones these days,
sorry for the late reply ive been sick for 2weeks T.T
aww it's really rare to see someone has maid-sam on their favorites ♡ and also seeing echizen on your characters makes me so happy haha I really love him, he's one of my childhood crush haha.
anyway, how you doing? I'm just starting to catch up again on animes. (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
Ooh I always forget there's also an anime adaption for that because the manga is so popular. But I might watch that when I have time then :)). Good morning here, Im eating breakfast and getting ready for work hehe. Outside of work I like to run, hike, anything outdoorsy really hehe. What about you? <3
How is Apothecary Diaries? I’ve been trying to start reading for a while now.
