recommendations?

A post on my flist got me thinking.

Does anyone have any anime/manga recommendations?

It's been awhile since I've gotten into a series or a new fandom. Like, I tried to go back and read past manga that I've looked at before, but I can't get into like. Like Negima!, for instance. Too many panty shots and too many "innocent boy gets smacked by overreacting naughty girls" cliches that bother me. Anything like that, if it's every other page, I'm not interested.

Help a girl out, people. Please? D:

HUZZAH i'm glad~

oh yeah you're good. it's not like molasses or anything, it's just a lot of little steps to reach the big goal. LFMAO TWO OLDER BROTHERS you'll definitely be fine. it's just shuujin's observations and they seem to be pretty accurate but i know quite a few fans went THE CREATORS ARE SEXIST!!!!! and i didn't see it all until they went up in arms.......

i don't even have the patience for monthly series anymore i've been spoiled ):

YES. THIS. i have no idea how light/l could be anything. i sort of get the whole hatesex thing but people seem to think that twu wuv puppy love is somehow plausible? I JUST...FLAMoskf mikami/light i could see. that would be cool, i won't lie. but anything else? i wouldn't be able to look at it.

Pffft. I doubt Bakuman is that bad. I can't judge yet though because I don't know the exact complaints and I'm still in the middle of chapter two. TIME WILL COME, THOUGH. I gotta start crash reading on this and a bunch of other series to come.

yes to all that, light/l makes no damn sense to me unless it's got hate sex involved. especially when people trying to play them off as the greatest love of all love or something. And then there was that one character with the obsession with chocolate and the other dude who barely gets any lines/any personality, and it's some OTP? I don't get it. Near the end, I was like, "Fuck this shit, does Light die?" and went on YouTube.
