About me: I am 36 years "young" and hail from the snow covered lands of Western Pennsylvania. I enjoy all things geek, with a sharp lean towards the orient/otaku nature of geekiness.

My "all-time" favorite Manga is Absolute Boyfriend by Yuu Watase. She is also very well known for her Fushigi Yuugi series. Absolute Boyfriend is about a highschool girl who has never had a boyfriend and faces constant rejection. She somehow gets caught up into accidentally purchasing a robot (of an adult nature) that is designed for adult relationships. But he begins to develop his own emotions and free will and the two begin to fall in love. Also along the way, her long time childhood friend and nextdoor neighbor realizes he has also fallen in love with her, so it becomes a love triangle situation. It's very good and thought provoking, brings to light the social issues that having a robot significant other may cause such as you will continue to age, but the robot can't age. You will grow old and die, but the robot will live on forever. You also can never have kids. Imagine if everyone wanted a robot lover, then humans would become extinct. Still it's very touching. very similar to the much more well known, Chobits, but with roles reversed (a female human and male computer instead of a male human and female persocom).
I also really loved both the Taiwanese and Japanese live action dramas based on Absolute Boyfriend and am anxiously awaiting the korean version which was announced last summer.
My favorite manga, anime, and kdrama tend to be "shoujo" in nature with a focus on slice of life and everyday relationships.
