Hey all,

I am looking for a new cleanish manga right now since everything else seems to take so long to release or is just isnt hoding my interest. I already own tsubasa, kenshin, naruto, fruits basket, DN angel, Angelic Layer, MKR 1 and 2. No sex or that type of stuff please.

well I personally like:

>Neotopai 1-3 are perfectly clean. it exciting and fun...and midly romanatic but not really.
>Gundam Seed, adventure, clean!
>Rave Master: ROLF funny, adventure.
>Juvenile Orion: great adventure exciting!!!
>From far away, by far the cleanest, funnest, most adventurest Shojo I have ever read!! it is by far one of the best manga ever!!
>Inuyasha, so far very clean...and funny and adventurous.

I would say Frut basket but you already mentioned that one so...ya there ya go

Oh, Yotsuba& is COMPLETELY clean. It's sort of spice of life and there's not really a cohesive story-- but it's freakin' hillarious.

Pretear is very clean, but it lacks a strong ending. Other than that, it was a pretty good series. Especially the art. *drools*

Imadoki-- there is one time when a [spoiler] side character gets pregnant out of wedlock, but it's happened in the past.[/spoiler] Aside from that, it's a really wonderful series. And if you're interested, there's a review in the review section of this manga-- written by my imouto-san!

.hack//legend of the twilight is a really cute one, from what I've seen. And Kireihana's review said the rest was really clean. Pretear is another cute, clean one to check out, in addition to all the other fine suggestions *cough Full Moon cough* =)

*One minor note on Full Moon Wo Sagashite, there is one character who is having an affair and we briefly see her in her bra and skirt.

Full Moon Wo Sagashite was a great Anime, so if the manga measures up it would be fantastic. . .

It's about this twelve year old girl who wants to become a singer, but has throat cancer that makes singing very difficult, and will more than likely kill her if something isn't done. However, if she has the cancer removed, it will damage her vocal cords in such a way that there is very little likelyhood that she will ever be able to sing, or even speak, again. This all looks hopeless to her until one day, two Shinigami appear in her room and inform her that she only has one year left to live. She decides if this is the case, she'll do anything she can to pursue her dreams in the little amount of time she has remaining. When the Shinigami grant her the power to become a sixteen year old version of herself (that doesn't have throat cancer) in order to try out at a big singing audition, she finds her dreams more possible than she had ever imagined they could be. Now, she has one year to sing as much as she can, befriending a couple of Shinigami and others she meets along the way.

May I also add that Full Moon is Ashley's favorite manga evah? And it made Gypsy cry!

I havent read the entire series of these so there might be more bad stuff in here that i dont know of.
Cyborg 009: Some cussing and mild violence
Rave Master: the later volumes have some girls in bikinis and a sailor moon type transformation scene but thats all i can remebmer as objectionable.
Project Arms: Pretty violent and has some language but no nudity or sex that I know of.
Firefighter Diago: Some language, violence.
One Piece: Mild Language, some mild violence.
Hunter x Hunter: I think there is some language and is pretty violent.
DBZ: Mild Language, Violence.
Mink: I dont know of anyh objectionable content in this.

If you want to find more check out the manga reviews.

EDIT: Also, Jing King of Bandits has some nudity in it.

Oh, sorry, I haven't read all of the series yet, and it's been awhile since I read the first few books.

BTW: You read Project ARMs? I didn't know they still made that. I got up to book number 4 or 5 then Books-A-Million and Walden's Books both stopped carrying it.

I'll second this title. I don't collect much manga but this is one title I've made an exception for. It's really cute.

Imadoki is an awesome, cute, tear-jerking story by Yuu Watase (it's head and shoulders above most of her work). We have a review in our database for it here:

Azumanga Daioh is about a group of girls who go through high school. Also in our database:
