Any recommendations? :)
Hey

So I've been looking at the new spring/summer season of anime and there's a few I'm interested in but they're all just new seasons of things I've watched... Anyone have any good anime/manga they've seen recently?
. I'll watch most things, but some of my favourites are in my sig
.
Thanks (in advance) for any help

Re: Any recommendations? :)
I'm more of a manga fan, but I guess you can also watch the anime adaptions if they have one.
Beelzebub (ongoing) - mostly comedy, not the funniest thing you'll have ever read, but the author plays around with clichés a lot which makes it interesting. I don't recommend the anime, but if you watch it then watch it before reading the manga.
Rave Master - a lot of the time it makes you laugh out loud, and a lot of the time it makes you want to cry. If you like adventure, fantasy, action and a great story in general I highly recommend this. The manga clearly shows the author's wild imagination. Anime was dropped and never completed.
Fairy Tail (ongoing) - made by the same author as Rave Master. Has similar elements as Rave Master, but you'll mostly notice its recurring theme of friendship friendship friendship.
Slam Dunk - manga about basketball. Art is pretty good. I myself am not a sports fan, but this manga is very enjoyable and might change your opinion of basketball.
Otoyomegatari (A Bride's Story) (ongoing) - the art is extremely detailed and beautiful. If you don't mind romantic relationships between a 12-year-old boy and a 20-year-old woman then I also recommend this. There's not much of a plot and the story mainly revolves around the everyday lives of the couple and the people around them. Romance is not, lack for a better word, romantic, it's more like cute and fluffy.
Other manga I can't be bothered to comment about:
High School Debut
Lovely Complex
Yankee-kun to Megane-chan
