Top 10 Best Shoujo Manga
When it comes to the best manga, we often see titles like Naruto and One Piece dominate, leaving our beloved Shoujo manga overlooked.So, this is a list of the best Shoujo out there! I hope you enjoy it.
I really like it. Usui is so hot. It's so cute when Misaki and Usui are together. I prefer that it'll be really nice if she writes more. I'm in love with it. It's the best manga I've read till now.
I really wish I was in Misaki's place. I really envy her. She looks pretty in the maid outfit. It suits her well.
I can't believe I read the manga more than 5 times and I'm still not bored with it. In fact, I don't think I'd be bored of it. I think everyone should read it. Even if they think it's not nice, they should give it a try. I'm sure they will like it.
Timeless classic. It is simultaneously a parody and a love letter to shoujo.
I find too many stories take themselves too seriously, but Ouran is both self-aware and genuinely packed with beautiful themes.
Definitely the best for me. The characters are all well-rounded, and who couldn't love the host club? (Spoilers! You have been warned...) Especially Tamaki's emo attitude! The plot has many twists and turns, some of which can beat the sanity out of you!
Bisco Hatori is probably the best author out there yet, with her humorous comments and heart-breaking storyline that keeps you reading Ouran over and over. When you've finished the story, it just makes you swoon and cry out "WHY IS THIS IT?!" at the same time.
The lively attitude brought through all of the mishaps and mischief keeps you choking with laughter right to the end! I recommend this to every manga fan, whether boy or girl! 1st place definitely!
First off, Skip Beat shows Yoshiki-sensei's style in drawing. It's rather different, to the point that some of my friends don't like the drawing, but hey, it's still very good. When an exceptional, quite unique style of drawing is coupled with a unique, refreshing plot that has almost every genre and amazing characters that people can relate to in one way or another, Skip Beat is really one of my all-time favorite manga after 8 years of reading manga and counting. It's highly recommended.
While the story ships Ren and Kyoko, I don't know why people hate me for this, but maybe I have first love attachments because Shou x Kyoko also has so many feels. I love you, Yoshiki Nakamura-sensei!
Ah... Where it all began. Even if you don't like this magical girl sensation, you have to appreciate that it, along with others, influenced the manga that we have today.
The tale of a normal schoolgirl who turns out to be a princess from another planet, saves the world along with her best friends. And of course, wins love from her true love over and over again.
With much respect, Sailor Moon takes first place and is a legend that will never be forgotten.
Best manga ever! I loved this manga. It revolutionized the shoujo manga world. It will remain in my heart forever.
Well, it's more about ghost hunting and psyches than romance in general. But it's interesting to have the female lead alternating between being irritated and enamored with the male lead because he is mostly ice-cold and rude in real life.
However, he often appears in her dreams like some astral projection and becomes borderline angelic to her there. Their relationship is not boring, to say the least, both because of their obvious line of work and many of their cute moments.
Additional info: there is a big bomb somewhere in the series, and because of that, I have never moved on from this series at all.
If you are not too much of a scaredy-cat, I recommend this manga.
The manga that didn't let me sleep a blink. I couldn't stop reading it. I thought I'd pick it up from where the anime left off, but then I was consumed by the first chapter. Reading it all over felt so refreshing, and I have to say this is one of the best love triangle/vampire romances ever!
As I type, my feelings for the amazing cast of Vampire Knight flood all over my mind. Mysteries unravel, plot twists here and there, perfect pacing, gets heart-wrenching as the story progresses. Read it and you won't regret it.
On a side note: don't forget a pack of tissues. You might need it, for all we know.
It started off with a cliché hook of "I'll always protect you." But then it turned out to be so much better with a new and interesting plot. The book manages to keep the familiar ties with the shoujo mangas we know and love while making it more realistic and easier to relate to.
There's also a completely new, in-depth, and more nuanced view of the characters, rather than the standard scenario where a lonely hot guy meets a simple girl who thinks she's ugly and plain but is really pretty. The art style is also beautiful, and on top of that, the manga artist is male, which makes this manga even better! In my eyes, this is the absolute best shoujo manga out there.
Having finished this manga, Tachibana-sensei is my number one mangaka, and this is my number one shoujo manga. While I'm still hoping that the ending isn't the end and that it could be continued, Gakuen Alice will have readers enrolling in a school of feels where you can laugh, cry, squeal, shout, and experience everything.
The plot of this manga started with an easy-go-lucky heroine turning hardships into bliss. While this happens, the depth of the story is profound. The puns and comedic antics in this manga can be so hilarious you can hardly see them coming.
But anyway, I just love everything about Gakuen Alice. As cliché as this sounds, no words can express how much I love this manga. Therefore, I can guarantee anyone, especially those who want a great shoujo manga, those who love good plots, and anyone who wants to find a world they wish wasn't fictional or that they could be part of, I recommend Gakuen Alice!
This shoujo manga has the perfect mixture of romance, life lessons, comedy, drama, and other psychological elements. Reading this feels like you are actually with the Sohma family. You'll be heartbroken and won't wish to leave them so soon.
Unlike those typical shoujo mangas where the problem is only about getting the hottest guy in school, this manga truly depicts how people are emotional because of serious life problems. The author creates characters that you grow with, drawing them as if their features mature at some point in the story. The chemistry between the characters doesn't feel rushed, so you'll completely understand how they develop feelings for each other. Overall, it's the best shoujo manga I have ever read. Strongly recommended!
I'm absolutely in love with this manga. Both the manga and anime are great. It's adorable how the story develops. The main character, Sawako, starts off as a really shy but kind girl, who is satisfied with making others happy. She just wants to be a normal girl, have friends, and carry on the typical life of a student.
She tries really hard but she still scares people until Kazehaya shows up. He helps her gain confidence in herself, introduces her to new people, helps the classroom see a new side of her, and eventually, he falls in love with all the things she has to offer. Everything is perfect.
The supporting cast is also great. I have to admit I hated some of the characters as they were introduced (the antagonists, of course), but even the bad guys end up being cuties.
This manga is absolute a beauty, it doesn't have to be hilarious to be love, like Ouran or Kaichou wa Maid-sama, they are mostly focusing on comedy, and the main couples for me doesn't even match. A perfect caring guy x a loudmouth bossy girl who doesn't appreciate everything that he does, but I kinda agree with Haruhi and Tamaki a little. Now back to Ao Haru Ride, it's relaxing and fits the description of a shoujo romance manga, the characters and plot are amazing, the ship is cute as hell too and has chemistry, I would to to read this all over again. The drama is too real, like how the story is extremely realistic, the story is full of emotions, the artstyle is beautiful and very detailed, I love this manga so much, but it ain't my fave, I'm just saying that this manga is truly the best. Some of ya'll are being too biased.
It's the best manga I ever read! I'm kind of a spoiler, so I may write some parts of the manga here. I mean they got somehow separated when they were in middle school, and they met each other again in high school. It's like oh my gawd! Futaba found out she likes the present Kou more than the younger Kou after a while. But Kou rejected her, at first I was like what DUDE?! But mutually Kou likes Futaba. But he's currently close to another girl and he doesn't want Futaba to feel bad or betrayed or hurt, so he rejected her. As soon he told the girl he's currently close with to stop meeting him, Futaba got herself a boyfriend who longs like her. But who knows what will happened next? Since Futaba is now confused and Kou's trying to steal her heart back. Futaba haven't give up her feeling on Kou. Can't wait for the next update!
Even though I started this awesome manga series a month ago, finished, and saw all the anime, I want more. This manga takes normal fantasy and throws it out the window. The villains, well, they do what they want and get away with it before the protagonist even has time to think.
It's funny, beautiful, deep, and emotional all at the same time. Tomoe is just perfect as a character, the protagonist has the most awesome personality, and all the other characters just fit in perfectly. Who says demons and a mortal land god don't get along? This one, in the best way possible!
Ah~ I love the heroine. She's simply so innocent and then because of a certain event that made her interact with the boy who lots of girls adore, she ended up feeling attracted for the first time. I think this manga has a very pure romance in it since the heroine simply looks so child-like but she readily knows how to act according to how she feels. I think she is actually just an honest girl and that she is really brave. Moreover, the guy is really hot and I love him!
This manga has a mild drama and kind of refreshing. It ended just good and enough. I feel happy whenever I saw this manga and hear of its name.
It's hilarious, refreshing, dynamic, innocent, and honest. There is this boy who, despite being rich, handsome, smart, and talented, has flaws. Then there's this girl who is pure and dense to the bone but is independent, intelligent, practical, and strong.
I adore the fact that Hisato is such a girl when it comes to Mikoto, blushing and becoming insecure, but he is still manly and reliable (and very attractive). I kind of hated how slow Mikoto was to realize her own feelings towards Hisato, but when we finally know why she was reluctant to admit them, it makes perfect sense. I only wish there was more development with the secondary characters, but oh well.
The art is amazing. The jokes are hysterical (for me at least), and some expressions and dialogues are to die for. Hisato is very sexy. The sweet parts are very, very sweet. It's warm and so realistic, like the definition of true love.
My 2nd one in rank. If maybe I haven't read Gakuen Alice first, Nana might have claimed the top first. This particular manga had actually opened my eyes to reality. Among all the other manga, this manga really focuses on how hard it is to live a life you have chosen with your career. It starts of with a fated meeting of two complete-opposite people and becoming best friends, following their dreams, meeting people, encountering obstacles, struggling to stand up, falling in love, choosing, making decisions, hurting each other, tragedy--- there were a lot of complications in life that was really portrayed in here. Whenever I think of this, I always end up in a trance and I can't help but empathize to the characters. Although, how great it should be if Ai Yazawa, the author, will finally continue this story until it finishes. Right now, the scans were all on hiatus and I still don't have any news of continuation.
Before I watched Tokyo Mew Mew, I couldn't stand anime. Once my friend showed it to me, I was completely intrigued by the characters and plot, and it even got me watching plenty of other anime!
Tokyo Mew Mew was the first anime I watched, and I loved it a lot, even though my ship didn't sail. The manga is also cute, but I didn't really like the A la Mode part. Then again, this is a really cute one!
Tokyo Mew Mew is nice. But since she ends up with the wrong guy, I must admit I got pretty angry! It made me mad! I don't even know why I voted for this anyway.
To be honest, I'm not a fan of Clannad... At all. But still, I give it 4th place, because it made me cry! And also, because people are nuts about it!
Clannad follows the life of Tomoya Okazaki, your average teenage boy protagonist, as he helps his cute friends with their life crises. Despite their stories being quite depressing, the characters stay happy, making you laugh at their unique charm. At first, it seems entirely average, but if you read between the lines, it's actually a very deep and heartwarming story.
When I first heard about tonari no kaibutsu kun during my summer vacations I was delighted and immediately looked for the anime.
On realising that the anime was not available on YouTube I decided that instead of looking for it online I would just read the manga.
And then what do you know? Before I knew it, I had finished the whole manga.
It was a beautiful story of shizuku and haru and the fact that the guy was feared rather than respected was a surprising twist to your everyday shoujo manga.
Shizuku is shy and hardworking like a lot of female protagonists but she has a flair of confidence that makes her stand out.
This was the first manga I read fully.
I highly recommend it
I just love this. I cried when I was reading the manga and when I watched the anime. This is just beautiful. It's about a boy and his friends. The boy is in a lot of pain due to his mother's death which he thinks is his fault and his friends help him. It's kind of like Ao Haru Ride and kinda seems cliche at first but there's a twist. The story literally goes across time and space which makes it better in my point of view. The story is beautifully written and every characters' emotion has been shown so gracefully. It's a masterpiece and it honestly deserves a better spot then 56.
I'm confused why this manga isn't one of the top fives. I recently read it, and I thought that it won't get out of my head. It is amazing how slowly the writer changes someone that is impossible to find love, into someone who can't live without love.
I was drained by different emotions while reading and sometimes I thought that Makino and Domyouji would be impossible to get back together again. The rollercoaster, the hills, the ups and downs of the relationship were so amazing that it could make us cheer or cry at one episode.
Although I was a bit disappointed with the ending (okay, no spoilers), this is a very nice manga to read! The flow and the plot line are excellently made. It's all about music, and you just don't know how musical a person I am. So give it a go!
I'm halfway through LDK and it's all that's been on my mind! I love the characters and the plot has a perfect ratio of frustrating/sweet. I've so far found myself tearing up often. The artwork is very beautiful and I care about the art quality a lot. I'm about to read volume 9 right now.
Amazing! Should be higher up. This was the first manga I ever read, now I can't stop reading! Really worth it, trust me. This is definitely a MUST READ. LOVED!
I LOVED it! Super sweet, funny and sexy. Great artwork too. It's also quite sad and frustrating sometimes. Kinda stereotypical but with a nice twist.
