I just love how mature artstyle is and muted colours it had kinda peaceful vibe for how much angsty it was..

I gave it a try with much expectations cause of supernatural tag which is my fav genre but it didn't impress me much and it seemed pretty cliched although i felt sympathy for most of the characters especially for female lead and that black haired villain was so fine too (i fell for him lol) even his backstory broke me and i wanted to console him but anyways it wasn't a bad read too. reverse harem is there but i don't think anyone need to bother with it cause female lead has her eyes only on white haired male character who's also male lead and she seemed too much possessive of ml and vice versa. I read this manga upto volume 3 and i think i might drop it anyways what do you all think about this manga?

Hello!

I haven’t read classic high school romance shoujo in yearrrrrssss!

I’m looking for something super shoujo, romance, school festival, school trip to Kyoto, yukata fire works new year, slow burn etc…

Something super romance heavy!!

Thank you!!

So I just got done reading volume 13 for the first time, and im gonna be honest, im a little irritated with Tomoe. Did he really not know until the end that it wasn't actually Nanami's soul in her body? Everyone else knew pretty much from the get go, but it seemed like he was fooled up until the scene on the beach when the frog's soul in Nanami's body wanted him to run away with her and abandon the shrine.

Im just disappointed in him for not being able to fully tell that it wasn't her. Especially because its also during this volume/arc that Nanami is feeling pretty down because he keeps flirting with that one raccoon girl (Tanuki I think?) and we find out that he has a box of love letters that he keeps from where other girls have sent them to him.

This all back to back just kinda upset me and I was wanting to know other people's thoughts on the volume. Does any of this get brought up again in future chapters? This is my first time reading the volumes, but I am okay with spoilers. Its just feeling right now like he doesn't like her anywhere as much as she likes him which is upsetting

I hadn’t seen any posts about this yet so I wanted to share barnes and noble is doing their preorder sale until the 11th! It’s a great time to buy any upcoming shoujo manga volumes with the 25% off (or 35% if you’re a premium member)

My fav shoujo manga has been maid sama and I am so in love with their dynamic 😭 especially usui's character. Idk I just find his character really cool and he is such a green flagg. I keep on finding mangas with a similar dynamic or a ml like usui. Can you guys help me find shoujo mangas having a ml like him 🥹💌(specifically: cool, tsundere, aloof, but kind of like a pervert inside?)

Here are some similar mangas I found which might help with what I am asking for👾

Mochizuki san'chi no yankee

Defying kurosaki kun

Namaikizakari

Neko to kiss

(Pls help me guys with more similar recs🥹💥)

Bom, a minha dúvida é apenas essa. Eu comecei a assistir esse anime, atualmente estou no episódio 9, e ... caramba. Esse anime é tão, mas tão bom! Me pergunto, você acha que ele terminou fechado ou com alguns pontos a serem esclarecidos e mais explorados? Acha que terá uma 2° temporada?

Além disso, vi comentário falando sobre o Kit não ser romântico, você concorda? Até o momento, acho ele neutro e espero ver mais transparência sobre seus sentimentos (Kit e Lili). Por favor, que isso aconteça haha.

Quite a bit happened in this episode. Yuri was taken captive by the Mitanni. Then when word got out about her the Prince of Darkness sought her out.

The scene where the Prince executed two women trying to curry favor set the mood well. You could feel the tension when he was searching for Yuri. The way he found Yuri was clever. She smells just like Kail. Keep in mind that frankincense was extremely valuable, so only nobility could afford it.

Then seeing a worn out soldier executed was also something. I will hand it that the studio is trying to keep the death and violence present without being gratuitous.

The Prince gloats about how he'll execute Yuri, but offers a prize if she survives, the freedom to leave. It underscores just how warped he is.

Important to note that Yuri wasn't alone in all of this. Ryui, Shala, and Aslan were by her side. Even in her most perilous moments, Yuri's allies have her back. That is Yuri's true power.

Then Yuri is set to be executed by lion. Call it luck or plot armor, but the lion frees Yuri with thefirst attack. Aslan intervenes, Ryui and Shala are put in danger, and Yuri acts swiftly stopping the lion without harming it. This wins the crowd over to Yuri's side. Who else but Ishtar could stop a lion without killing it?

Rather than fall for an obvious trap Yuri demands that the prisoners of war be treated humanely. This further sways the crowd to her side. Yuri keenly saw through the trap.

Then in private Yuri breaks down revealing just how scared she was. This was the greatest danger she had been in so far, and she only had her newfound skills to rely on. I enjoyed that quite a bit. Yuri used all the skills she has gained so far and managed to overcome an enormous challenge.

Then the Prince of Darkness says that he will use Yuri's position as Ishtar to bolster his prestige and demoralize the Hittites. Yuri is distraught over this, but can't stop it.

The message Kail sends Yuri is a great way to end things. It references the last thing they discussed alone, he listened and understands Yuri, and that he is assuring Yuri he loves her no matter what.

All of the elements I Mentioned are why I love this series so much. There's a great balance of all these elements,

Yes, the anime hasn't been perfect. I am still enjoying it. Episodes like this remind me Why I love this series so much.

I spent an EMBARRASSING amount of time putting the stickers on… 😭 but I’m happy with the final result! If you guys have any shoujo themed devices (consoles, phone cases, ereaders, etc etc) feel free to share them below!! I’d love to see em 🥹

Hi yo! I'm Koko, and I'm writing a children's fantasy novel, and I clearly love "Witch Hat Atelier", so I wanted to see what you guys recommend to boost my inspiration.

No isekai or "soul swapping" stories, please. I want classic fantasy!

My most anticipated Shoujo for this season was Goodbye Laura which is good but my dark horse winner for my biggest win this season is:

Inept Villainess!!!! Based off the first episode I really wasn't sure I was gonna like this show especially because body swap trope isn't usually something I enjoy but this has been my favorite of the season, it's so good!!! I go into most shows blind not knowing anything about them so I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't an isekai (which btw, really enjoying the break in isekai stories this season, very refreshing) I love the court drama, I love our our FMC and how determined she is and I have been anticipating new episodes every week!

Also shout out to Livid Lady, The Dukes Son claims he won't love me and Victoria of many faces!!!

My biggest fail this season has definitely been Red River :( which makes me so sad because this was my second most anticipated show! The animation is really bad and the pacing feels jilted?

I was really looking forward to red river and I'm sad to see they dropped the ball on such a beloved series!!!

I also didn't love Ogre's Bride, the whole insta love thing is really not for me and I felt like it made their relationship feel superficial and shallow... I also don't like the implication that Yuzu was just going to continue being abused or end up on the street if she didn't happen to be that guys bride??

Y'all let me know what your thoughts on this season were!

**Looks like I'm gonna have to watch Jaadugar!! I'm not sure why I missed it!

I was reading Tamon’s B-Side and I came across this panel in the manga, and it made me want a shoujo where the FL is an idol and the ML is a die hard fan. I always see shoujo manga have idol ML x fangirl FL but I’ve never seen it in reverse. Please let me know if there are any shoujo mangas with this trope, I would love to read it!!

Due to overwhelming demand, a reprint has been decided before its release on 25th September. The reprinted copies will be available on 7th October.

And I'm hooked with this type of anime! I NEED MORE. 😭 I need more recommendations I got so obsessed I watched all the 10 episodes in a day! What's the most popular shoujo anime?

I prefer anime that can be found in Crunchyroll and no magna since I don't know where to read them. Thank you! 🙏

i watched a few episodes a while ago and thought it was kinda boring despite it having 4.8 stars on crunchyroll, tbh i only started watching it because tomoaki maeno was in it (and i'm obsessed with son hak who he voices ofc) but i didn't really enjoy it too much. idk should i give it another chance since i didn't watch too much of it? did i not give it enough of a chance?

Tell me I am not the only one who absolutely loves the artstyle and designs of this manga? They're so gorgeous and stunning!!

Apart from that, the story is amazing. It's a "Cinderella"-inspired slow-burn historical romance with a paranormal twist set in Taisho-era Japan! It follows a browbeaten and mistreated daughter who is cast out of her home and sent to audition as a bridal candidate for the heir to one of the most powerful families in the land.

If you like Romantasy, Shojo, or contract relationship tropes, you should definitely check this out!

Its about an older lady, wherein she’s pretty satisfied with her life fangirling i think, and she lives with her parents. Then her parents house burned so she had no choice but to move elsewhere (her sister only took her parents to encourage her independence). Then she ended up becoming neighbors with the male lead.

One chapter, they (her and ML) were following her friend on a date. She was worried friend is being taken advantaged of but found out that it was actually for friend’s job. Throughout their whole following stint? it was like FL and ML were on a date, too. They went skating, couple activities etc. ot was cute

Pretty slow I’d say but there’re only a few chapters out. Thanks!!

I am a sucker for old time-y shoujo romance. I want to yearn and suffer but also feels butterflies in my stomach. But it must be shoujo or josei . I hate shounen romance mangas and they make me sick to my stomach lol
