It's a classic and I haven't ever found a shoujo like it. I love myself a badass lady and I love the relationship between the main characters. Haven't found a manga that could keep the Romeo and Juliet status between the main characters for as long as this one and it wasn't annoying it was more like you understood why they weren't together but you just kept hoping some miracle would happen that would solve everything so they could finally be together. If it weren't for the art style, you wouldn't be able to tell this manga was from the same mangaka of Skip Beat. Therefore, put all your Skip Beat knowledge and expectations aside when reading this one.

Reminiscence Adonis

Ongoing | Duō Yù,n Wé,nhu,Duo Yun Wenhu | 2000 released

This is really good. In a way, it reminds me of Qishi Huanxiang Ye and Doulou Dalu. It's a little bittersweet because she's gone through so much that you just want her to finally find happiness.

Basara

Complete | tamura yumi | 1991 released

My summary: In a corrupted Japan, after one of the four kings (the Red king) raids Sarasa's village and kills her father and brother, Sarasa takes on her brother's identity and rises as a rebel leader. It would be fair to say that the Red King and 'Tatara' are destined enemies. However, while they're each plotting and campaigning to kill the other, they end up meeting in disguise and falling in love. One of my all-time favorites. I love the Romeo X Juliet style stories. Shuri and Sarasa both end up taking important people from the other and that just adds to weight of their love. The politics, alliances, and adventures add further richness to the story.

This one has always been one of my favorites with all the dramatic and cliched moments it has. I've always wished it had been longer.

Kaichou Wa Maid-sama

Complete | Fujiwara Hiro | 2006 released

Four stars cause what a bland ending. I know Usui is cool and all, but the character that really draws me in is Misaki. She's so awesome despite the constant reminder that she's not perfect and she makes mistakes. She feels so real and I love her for that.

Hirunaka No Ryuusei

Complete | yamamori mika | 2000 released

This is the only manga in my life that has ever made me raise my arms to celebrate (I'm not a very emotional person). This is forreal one of my favorite endings if not my favorite. This story is about a down to earth high school girl that falls in love with her teacher. She has to deal with those feelings as well as with the worries that come with a teacherXstudent relationship. I like the mc a lot. She's really cool and handles things very well compared to the teacher who is hesitant and half-assed in nature.
