Thought it would be a bit interesting to showcase all the Shojo Beat series to have received omnibus releases (non-collectors‘ versions, so eg Nana Omnibus isn’t included). I think I got most of the budget omnibi releases, though it’s possible I missed a few.

both of them are so cute ADSHDNAHGDNFNFSHGSHDHSGSGDB

I CAN’T WAIT 2 MORE MONTHS JUST FOR A MORSEL OF THIS MANGA

anyways i need more stories like this delinquent x delinquent kind of thing where it is kind of fluffy (not too much angst) and solid communication

Sakura and Syaoran (Shaolan?) are my chilhood anime OTP, I loved them so much as a kid!

And they look wonderful in the movie, so I got inspired to draw them.

Traditional art, done with alcohol markers, hope you like it !

I love shoujo manga but I noticed that alot of the time the ml no fun just some nonchalant guy or the opposite which I don't like, so I need one with the most chalant, silly ,fun with good art style of course manga recs (I know am asking for alot but please I need this)

This post and likely the replies will have spoilers don't read on if that's an issue.

Recently my parents sent me some of my old books and I have reread my Vampire Knight mangas.

Vampire Knight was the first ever manga I randomly picked at a book store when I was young. I think like a lot of kids I didn't have a lot of money so over time I only ended up getting to volume 4. So I re-read what I did have quite a lot and learnt to draw a little bit from it too. I love the art style.

Anyway it turns out this was a very formative read for me in terms of fashion, manga art style preferences and ascetics. I only realize reading it what a huge impact it actually had and just feeling incredibly nostalgic reading it. It was a favourite of mine and a friend who sadly died, she looked a lot like Yuki which adds another layer of weird feelings to all of this.

I have been really disappointed to check in with the franchise to find it took some strange turns and is generally considered to have poor writing going forward. I did eventually give in and read a plot overview.

I would like people's honest opinions. Like I said I have a lot of fond feelings tied up in the first four issues. My question is, do I buy any other issues and continue or will it ruin the story? I kind of pretty much know what happens from the summary but I guess it doesn't feel real right now. My concern is if the plot is THAT bad reading on might ruin it for me?

I'd like to hear other people's experiences whether they think it's worth reading on at all, whether I should stop at a certain volume that kind of thing. Obviously the point I got to didn't really get into any of the problematic stuff do I just quit while I'm ahead?

I feel like they have a good chemistry and if they had romantic feelings for each other it would have worked out better than the main pair in my opinion.

In the anime it feels like Suwa was really able to reach at Kakeru's concerns and break down his barriers deeper than the others (especially the moment when Suwa hugs Kakeru who's crying) while Kakeru puts up walls around Naho most of the time although he can also be vulnerable with her at times.

Maybe it's because Suwa isn't afraid of confrontation and their bond as bros makes it easier for Kakeru to let his guard down around him ?

Their friendship is wholesome either way.

What do you all think ? Let me know your thoughts💭

Sadly I can't attend but if someone can, I'm letting you know about this. I don't know if the titles will be subbed or Italian dubbed. Although just a note that Here U Are is not shojo.

I‘m in a Shoujo romance mood, are there any manga you consider a must read?
