Hi. Does anyone know of a clean manga series out there? Oh, buy clean I mean there can't be much swearing, any nudity, no demonic symbles or stuff. If anyone out there has read "Magic Night Rayearth", than you know it's pretty clean right! Well, my parents made me get ried of it cuz it had a demonic 6 pointed star in the second book.
Plz help, I have super strick parents and I want to find inspiration for my own manga... :waah!:. Thanks ;)

:) If your parents aren't against Norse mythology, I'd recommend Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok.

Yea, Hikaru no GO is great!
I would recommend Pita Ten, but Shia's a demon...but she's a good demon, if that helps! ^^;
There's Angelic Layer by CLAMP. Pretty clean, and a good read too! (it's a short manga, so you don't spend much money either! XD)

The series Prince of Tennis is very good. I've only read the first volume and part of the second, but so far it's been Ok.

Rurouni Kenshin. Awesome series. Should be clean enough for your parents.

Yeah, I'd agree with that. I would put a minor disclaimer on there that there's often alot of violence. Several people "loose their heads." :lol:

:wow!: I can't believe you guys have not mentioned Shelter of Wings yet. This is a pure Christian Manga made by Lisa Hutcheson. Her art is fantastic! :thumb:

Awesome. Thanks for all the recomendations. The only thing is now where to get these! I live in Seattle if that helps at all. You all rock for helping a poor clueless gal like me... MOOO.

Nausicaa is good and clean. Hard to think of many because of translator preferences (Azumanga Daioh manga is out because ADV put some strong words in). SHort Program was pretty good.

Most big chain bookstores like Borders and Barnes & Noble carry a fairly good selection of manga.

Neotopia is a really clean American Mangasp far.
I have found none of the stuff you said you didn't want. Its a really fun adventure.
I have only yet read 1 and a half of the books.

Viz's translation of One Piece.
Plus: Little language, good story (starting with the Alrong Arc :D) Stylized Art. Little actual killing.
Minus: Some Liquor use, show in a neutral light. Blood appears, and can be very plentiful. Example being Zoro when he fought Mihawk, being cut across the chest caused a good deal of splatter. However there is no real gore.

I'll go with the others when they suggest Hikaru no Go.

As a minor note, you should know that Nausicaa can get pretty violent at times. *is very squeemish*

Rurouni Kenshin is good. But it's pretty violent. There isn't really anything objectionable except an occasional "finger" (though in Japan, that's not as bad as it is over here...hey, in some countries, the "i've got your nose" gesture is considered extremely profane) and a mild swear word about once every two books (except for the first one as Yahiko says the d*** word a few times, but Kaoru then tells Kenshin to wash his mouth out with soap :lol: ).
