Recommendations Shounen manga/novel with female MC.

Ones with romance, straight romance. (By shounen, I mean stories that are catered to the male demographic)

I know a few shonen novels with female MC, like Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka? Or Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear. And I know lots of mangas too, but I want ones that has romance. Those two novels will probably never have romance, and I even suspect the MC of Kuma Bear is either asexual or lesbian, and kumoko's dandy old wizard probably died...she probably killed him.

Getting off topic! Sorry. Anyway, I actually might know some already, like Plunderer by the author of Sora no Otoshimono. But even though it's from the point of view of the girl, the ML still feels like the focus of the story. The one who fights is him and the one who grows is him. I want one where the FMC is the focus.

...kind of like I Reincarnated as a Noble Girl Villainess But Why Did It Turn Out This Way?. Its basically the type of story I'm looking for...but even though it feels kind of like a shounen novel, it's still a shoujo novel.
Something like Demon Sword Maiden is also to my liking, though both sexuality and gender can be brought to question in this one. (But gender bender is my favorite genre so I'll take anything, as long as it's not yuri.)

AGAIN I'm getting off topic!! Fuck me! So anybody got anything?

TL;DR: Female MC, a shounen style plotline and action(don't really need action), with heterosexual romance.

 

Senryuu Shoujo
Gal Gohan
Boku Girl
Senpai ga Urusai Kouhai no Hanashi
Zannen Jokanbu Black General-san

 

Kaguya sama love is war

 

may fav fem mc manga is : Claymore
not really shounen and no real romance but still awesome

 

My Disciple Died Yet Again
Kuusen Madoushi (will likely have romance)
Toaru Kagaku no Railgun

 

Well, I should've expected most of them to be slice of life. Thanks. I already know some, I'll check out the rest.

 

Hmmm... kind of hard to judge the line but how about these manga which have action:

Feng Ni Tian Xia
Feng Qi Cang Lan
Miao Shou Xian Dan

There is also Funa's stuff (the one who wrote make my abilities average) like:

Saving 80,000 Gold Coins in the Different World for My Old Age
Potion danomi de Ikinobimasu!

Though they aren't much for romance.

this is for if you want shounen only (no seinen): https://www.mangaupdates.com/series...e+demographic+with+female+lead&orderby=rating

I recommend:

shonen:
mahou tsukai no yome
kubera
Kyokou Suiri
yandere kanojo

seinen:
Kono Bijutsubu ni wa Mondai ga Aru!
renai kaidan sayoko-san
Shoujo Fight
Raise wa Tanin ga Ii
ran to haiiro sekai
emma
arte
otoyomegatari

 

You've mostly listed Isekai-type stories, and there aren't too many of those. But here are a few geared towards guys with a female MC:

Soul Eater
Saving 80,000 Gold Coins in the Different World for My Old Age
Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro
Oh! Holy
The Girl Who Bore The Flame Ring
Zettai Karen Children

All but two I'm sure have romantic undertones - no Yuri. Zettai Karen is a little strange as the MC is a guy... but the focus is really on the three girls he takes care of, and they are the ones that grow in power and personality. Hope that helps!

 

Romantic undertones? I was hoping for a full romance with a definite conclusion. I really don't like when they have this romantic tension going on but never draw a conclusion by the end and leave it to our imaginations. I'd rather read something with no romance at all rather than something vague like that.

 

oh holy and zettai karen children have romance, the other ones in that list don't

Pretty shounen I guess, MC is a girl who has to cross-dress due to political issues but dang.. she's OP and really dominant. There's a male lead.. unfortunately he still doesn't know his love interest is a cross-dressing girl.

 

Check out Male Demographic with Female Lead

Youjo Senki (Genderbender)
Yasei no Last Boss ga Arawareta! (GB)
Only Sense Online (Technically GB?)

Online - The Comic
Mahou Shoujo Site
Dokunie Cooking [R]
Tensei Shitara Ken deshita (Male MC, but dude is a sword so. Split focus with FMC.)
Kakegurui
Hinamatsuri (Father+Daughter main characters)
Kusuriya no Hitorigoto (both novel and manga) [R]
Flying Witch (More slice of life than action tho, but there's a little)
Game no Naka ni Iru!
The Violence Action
Uglyhood (new, but seems to fit)
The Voynich Hotel [R]
Gokusen [R]
Ana Satsujin [R]
Superior [R] (there's a sequel too)

The ones with [R] have romance, even if it's a little for a couple of them, there's a definite couple.

 

Dammnit, can't recommend Grand Blue as a troll anymore.

Not really romance just female MCs
Azarinth Healer
Skyclad
Enchanting
The Minotaur Paladin
Metaworld Chronicles

The category is really hard to find to be honest.

 

Boku girl is a trap though.

 

Tokyo ESP was pretty good, even if it had an obvious het agenda.

 

Yea, but he turns into a girl. I did say gender bender is welcome.

 

Yea, Uglyhood. Definitely fits. I love that. Though I can't see it having any romance and I don't want to either. This main character and romance don't go together at all. lol
But who knows, I used to think the same of Hina from Hinamatsuri, but I'm slowly starting to root for that boy who is in love with her now. (What does he even see in her?...though she is supposed to be very cute in terms of appearance I guess?)

 

Hey, is the romance in Zettai Karen Children with the male main character who guides them or with different people? (I hope its the later)

 

Spoiler

with male MC: after some time skips, minamoto starts getting attracted to kaoru who is in high school
