Can anyone recommend me a story that has like the same atmosphere as LOTM manhua, something dark and serious with minimal comedy, where they are also solving/finding out abt something. Honestly, any dark fantasy will do with no to minimal romance thank you sm
black butler!! it takes a while to get serious but i feel like that‘s exactly what you‘re looking for. also pandora hearts and maybe (vibe wise) d gray man, vanity no carte and these aren‘t fantasy but have a similar setting moriarty the patriot, gosick & aisha
also if you like dark fantasy in general i recommend the witch and the beast, dorohedoro (tho this is very gorey but sooo amazing story wise) & aftergod
THAN YOU SM!!
It was about a justice killer MC who kills people who had a light sentence after doing crimes (which I mostly remember was about assaulting girls) and focusing on the fuck up justice system of Korea. Then on the outside he is a smart and capable one and an inspiring police man who also has a relative in the police force which is how he found his targets. Then I believe he was then investigated by some reporter who found incriminating evidence against him (?). That’s all I remember
do you remember what hair color he had? i kinda have a manhwa that fits this except the police officer part i think
Black and like a buzz cut
Wait actually i’m not sure with the buzz cut, but black hair
ohh then nvm mine has a red buzz cut lol. but if ure interested its https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/juvenile_offender/

plus it got an anime adapation in january of this year that is the equivalent of a warm hug and freshly baked cookies with how good it is
Not exactly detective-ish but i recc 'requiem of subdued soul' since its the closest . Murim + investigation + fantasy . (But idk when we'll get another season :') )
But as for personal recc special civil servsnt and the evil ring is very good . Its really fantasy and action focused , with only slighty romance
Regrettably, i’ve read every single one of those. But, thanks anyway!!!
Thanks!!

I read it on webtoon. Since I can't comment there, i'd just ask here
So it was popular around when unordinary was just 80 ch, it was horror with somewhat realistic drawing, all I remember with the story was there was a car and the people inside went into the forest (?) and like got haunted. I remember one scene where a blondie girl was haunted and someone was knocking to her door which she thought was her friend and then tried to kill her. It's been a long time so I forgot most of the story, sorry if the info are limited.
Is it 'GremoryLand'?
No sadly, I found it though just now, it's witch creek road
Are there shoujos without romance? (Genuinely asking)
yeah
There are both those that do not center it, but it might be something happening in the manga (to main or side characters), and those that do not have romance in sight, even criticizing it.

Here are some recs if you’re looking for them ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Fun fact Junji Ito is a shoujo writer
Thanks sm!!
Wait really maybe I really should up my shoujo reading game lol
I wouldn't call myself an avid shoujo reader, but it is a really interesting genre to explore.
I'm currently reading Mystery to Iunakare by Yumi Tamura.
And my all time favorite is Banana Fish (as stated by author herself, the characters were made both male at the time of writing for people to look past what would usually be a romance plot and explore other/platonic relationships. I would also say that it is much better, more logical, and the characters have more depth and realism than the anime adaptation.)
Overall, most of the shoujo mangas that I tend to enjoy are published by Flower Comics (was surprised to find out how many of my highlights were published by them)
For a more lighthearted, still sometimes sad, manga I would recommend Minato Machi Neko Machi.
But there are quite a few non-romance, non-sparkly, non-magical-girl shoujo mangas out there. You name it horror, sci-fi, detectives. (Are they as graphical and heavy as their seinen/josei counterparts? Maybe not. Are they still interesting and well written? Yes)
Thanks for enlightening me, I've always thought all of it was for teenage girls who likes romance, especially that when I scroll through the genre, it's filled with romance of prince and princess. I never thought it would have something deeper and that I actually enjoyed a few shoujos already. Again thanks!!
I read it 3 years ago from another site that got axed, not sure if it's a manhua or manhwa, but it's a sentinel x guide detective shounen ai set in london, smaller guy is a detective, has red hair, the guide, and can see like spirits of animals, particularly deers. Taller guy is blonde and is a police officer (I think), helps the detective, and the sentinel that is looking for a guide (the detective). There are also side characters such as a female journalist (who went missing on the 2nd arc) and another detective/police officer that likes the journalist. The first crime they investigated was like feet severed from women and wore red shoes a lot. And lastly I remembered they tackled the like how guides are mistreated and sentinels can go crazy over a guide resulting in guides blackmailing sentinels. The art was also pretty good, then it down graded into shit halfway with a different story altogether, I still want to read it though, maybe just the first season at least.
Yeahh thanks smm!
