Title (Japan) : 人类补完计划

Tankubon Latest Release : Vol 03 (END)

the MC is more or less like Katsuragi Keima ... plus lolicon trait ? lolz ...
too much hint might cause spoiler ... so I make it short ...
Note : there's a yandere in here ... and all girl is quite ... lunatic ?

 

Batoto Description :

The minister's aide has an idea, a project in mind to help correct the declining birth rates in Japan. This plan, so to speak, has it where Japan's youth are encouraged to form relationships. The catch is that at the chosen highschool for the initial test of this is being held, the project is mandatory — the students must become intimate couples with the other students or they will die.

 

Edit :

that cover and title kinda misleading ...

this manga story will become darker sooner than you think ...

there's NTR too in here ... well, sorta ... =3= ...

 

 

SOME character is lunatic ... or nuts ... or crazy beyond thinking ...
latter, there's death game ... and there's a real death and twisted characters ... VERY TWISTED ...

There is one... but its boring and kinda of rip-off setting. You won't like it, and i forgot its name SO... try reading
http://vatoto.com/comic/_/comics/bokura-no-kiseki-r151

The MC for this manga is just as sly, and deceptive than Keima. Its confusing at first, but give it a bit of patience and it'll reel you right in.

[kyrt]

denpa kyoushi http://vatoto.com/comic/_/comics/denpa-kyoushi-r2651. is like a mix between great teacher onizuka (GTO) and god only knows. It's a manga with a reluctant otaku who becomes a teacher. school/science/otaku setting and although not all that close to the twgok setting it's a decent manga all the same.

but with more WILD act ... if only translation get faster for this one ...

translation now nearly caught up to the latest RAW ...

big thanks to their effort ...

Batoto Description :

Mizuhara Ritsu loves both the 2D beauties of eroge and elementary school students. Also, his friend Bungo is jealous of how he seems to be surrounded by cute girls--there's his little sister Miri, his tsundere childhood friend Akari, and kuudere Hatori.

One day, Bungo tells Ritsu about an anonymous blogger who writes about the future, and whose vague online self-description seems to match Ritsu. While initially assuming it to be a prank, Ritsu ends up letting his actions be guided by the blog's horoscope-like hints for the upcoming day...

 

Personal Comment :
the MC looks ALIKE with Katsuragi Keima face (almost like twin brother but with different art) ...
and yeah, he don't have godly skill but it seems he see a blog that created by KK ... =3= ...
he is pedo too ...

Spoiler

gosh, why so many KK wannabe become pedo ?
maybe that's why Wakaki create this Urara arc ... to show that KK fear the loli ? LOLZ ...

Bokura no Kiseki is done by a female mangaka, and most of mangas done by females (not all) has a distinctive art style different than ones done by males. This series went beyond my expectations despite the stereotype of the style, and you'll be surprised as well. The MC is such a good liar.
The romance in BNK is in there, but its not capturing a women's heart srry.

Please stop insulting TWGOK by comparing it to this mess and Keima is not a pedo.

Please stop insulting TWGOK by comparing it to this mess and Keima is not a pedo.

I really have no idea how it got such a high rating. Can anybody tell me if this series is going anywhere right now? i started off at chapt 1 and dropped it immediately.

[FakeHero]

Sometimes I can´t understand people, how can you read all this other inferior manga after TWGOK? Unless someone can do it better is not worth your time to find something "alike".

This is a masterpiece, and is a masterpiece for a reason. There´s none harem manga on the same level as TWGOK.

[yariel]

...
yeah, because TWGOK sometimes ... or lately ... OFTEN taking a week break ...
so the reader probably need a bit something ALIKE ...
of course if you don't want to read it, it's your own choice ...

Please stop insulting TWGOK by comparing it to this mess and Keima is not a pedo.

I won't accuse Keima as pedo ... since he almost get raped by loli instead ... =3= ...
I just said that all this Keima ALIKE (not EXACT SAME)... minus pedo trait ...
except in Denpa Kyoushi and few other manga ...

I really have no idea how it got such a high rating. Can anybody tell me if this series is going anywhere right now? i started off at chapt 1 and dropped it immediately.

which one ?... "TWGOK" or "Boku to Kanojo no Renai Mokuroku" ?
1st chapter seems a bit bland ... but latter the plot getting thicker and the plot speed like crazy ...

Edited by yariel, 05 January 2013 - 11:32 AM.

[Nevermind]

"Boku to Kanojo no Renai Mokuroku" is surely worth reading, thanks yariel.

[yariel]

hmm ... there's massive update over here and there ...
but I can't find more manga that "alike" with TWGOK ...

alike character shape then ...
in Acchi Kocchi the MC (Io) looks a bit like Katsuragi Keima ...
well, not really alike in personality (for being otaku) but it's fun to see him ...
this series is a gentle one and it's VERY CUTE ... the most cute anime I have ever seen ...
even the manga is cute too ... (the drawing in early is kinda lack tough ... up to the point being bad ...)
nevertheless ... the manga still cute ...

[yariel]

...
another hint about alike ... not MC tough ...
in To Love Ru Darkness, Momo starting to play galge or eroge to plan the harem ...
so she can "capture" girls for Rito's harem ...

hmm, I notice the view increased quite a lot ...
but ... sorry for not able to give more "alike" title ...
I hope someone help me in this matter ...

oh yeah, Merry Christmas 2012 and Happy New Year 2013 for everyone ...

Date A Live (Older Version)

 

Batoto Description :

April 10th. Yesterday was the last day of spring vacation, so starting this morning it was a school day. After being woken up by his cute little sister, Itsuka Shidou believed that it would be the start of another normal day. As for predicting the chance meeting with the girl who called herself a spirit......

Along with a sudden shockwave, the townscape vanished without a trace. In a corner of the street which had now become a crater, the girl was there.

"—You, have you come to kill me too?"

She is the disaster that will destroy humanity, a monster of unknown origin, and a being rejected by the world. There are only two ways to stop this girl: annihilation, and conversation. His little sister Kotori, wrapped in a military uniform, thus said to Shidou: "Since it's like this, just go date her, and make the spirit fall for you!" "Wh.. whaaaaaaaat!?" Enter a new age of boy meets girl!!

 

Personal Comment :
another manga that alike ...
well ... not alike (since MC is not otaku by all means) ...
but ... you will seriously hope MC have at least 10% from "god" ability ...

the manga name is "Date A Live" ... it's hard to explain in word but ...
for peace sake MC must date super girl existence (Spirit) ...
the world keep fighting and killing that Spirit but one organization expect to make a "peace" solution ...
(MC also hate them killing live, thus he try this "Date A Live" plan)

to date her ... however there's tons of obstacle in this plan ...
there's super power "she the ultimate weapon" to fight Spirit ...
and guess what ... she will become a rival ... not to mention Spirit is not only one ...
there might be more rivalry and jealousy ...
the organization member is nearly idiot all the time ... (but sometimes might goes very capable)
most victim from explosion Spirit HATES that super power girl to the point want to kill her ... or MC ...
other organization want to monopolize her ... or MC ... or both ... or everything ...
etc

can MC did this near impossible task ?

and the way to do the date for making that girl fall in love to MC ? learn from galge ...
all "expert" is a nutcase for galge are (total fail) ...
to the point you expect Katsuragi Keima enter this manga world ...
but if that happen, probably this manga will end within 1 chapter ... =3= ...
so probably 10% ability from "god" should be enough ...

Not only does he meet beautiful girls in his busy school life, he even goes as far as living with them under the same roof! Surrounded by these flags, this enviable romantic comedy begins!

 

Personal Comment :
this one is quite unique ... MC by all means not an otaku ...
but MC capable to see "FLAG" like the flag in galge or eroge ...
(death flag, love flag, sleepover flag, etc ...)
and he seems capable to manipulate the flag ...
avoiding death, breaking love, etc)
he somehow anti social type and often breaking any friendship and love flag toward him ..
but one day a girl notice his strange ability and told not breaking flag all over ...
what he will do ? not to mention he being put in 1 place with bunch of girl ...
(of course he will do his best avoiding any love flag ... but can he avoid the impending harem flag ?)

Media : Manga, Novel, ANIME

 

 

 

not only death flag need to be avoided ... this one also need to be avoided at all cost ... *ouch*

Batoto Description :

What would you wish for if you could make a single wish? Sakura Yamato, an anti-social genius, knows his ideal wish. When at home, as he lives alone, he spends most of his time with his little sister collection, fawning over anything little sister related. Other than them, his only other conversation companion is a stuffed rabbit memento of his long deceased older sister. But one day, the rabbit starts speaking out of nowhere, and claims its feeling for Yamato won't lose to anyone else. After transforming into a woman with rabbit ears, she states she is his sister, coming from Heaven to give him a single wish from God.

 

Personal Comment  :

(yeah, a bit slag pun from To Love Ru Trouble ... )
The MC in this manga is kinda like otaku ... not a full whole but he is imouto maniac ...
(partial lolicon perhaps ? lolz ...)
and yeah, like Katsuragi Keima, he have SMART brain ...
but his imouto maniac trait probably being caused by his big sister death at past ...

now his sister back at the doll she was left behind when she was death ...
his sister said will grant his wish if he give his virginity to her ... (bro-con pervert sister, YEA~~H)
of course he refused, and since he think it's a delusion he want a galge perfect imouto ...
what in the store of his crazy live ?

I enjoy judging mangas by their thumbnails somtimes, and after i gave Kanojo no Renai Mokuroku a try, I knew that it wasn't a manga suit for me. Having the MC in the corner and 3 hot chicks in the front with 10 times the size than him says alot about the manga itself.
I read recommendations on these mangas before, but i always find that the best way to find out if its to your liking is by reading it. I did. And i moved on.

sorry if it's confusing ...
I only copy paste from the manga description ...
(not really enjoy the drama type, so I kinda lazy to put my own opinion at it) ...

and about Boku to Kanojo no Renai Mokuroku ... it's your choice ... really ...
I'm only suggesting it ... and it's have more than 2200+ follow, so I think it's commonly being said as "good" ...
at least by average reader ...

like I said, I only give suggestion about manga which "alike" in here ...
not forcing any of you to read it or follow it ...
(and even I, myself don't like some which I mention above ... I just try to find most of it and mention in this thread ...)

Ore ga Heroine o Tasukesugite Sekai ga Little Mokushiroku!?
this MC is not an otaku ... but he is the "hero" ... literally ...
and because of MASS trouble, task, mission, etc ... latter he will become quite devious and mastering plan ...
thus he become somewhat like Katsuragi Keima ... (devious and able to use whatever in disposition part)
he must save the heroine from all place ... (place as in different dimension, time, planet)
each of this setting called as "tale" ...
it's because his bloodline ... as hero which in family ...

of course, he will says he overwhelmed, don't want additional trouble, already have enough task, etc ...
however if he don't do that, the heroine in that "tale" might get misfortune or death ...
not to mention the planet, dimension the "tale" might get destroyed or face mass misfortune and death ...

get note, all heroine he save will fall in love to him ...
(obviously, since he save their demise from death and cruel fate)
and ... as you guess it ... harem trouble ... =3= ...

there's AI from future (shouta) named Kickside ...
and his mission is to prevent world destruction because MC ...
"War of Everything" ...
as in ALL heroines that fall in love with MC making big mass war dimensionally ...
to obtain MC ... yeah, the world get destroyed because harem jealousy ... =x= ...
so the more he help girl from other world, the closer that big war latter ...

 

Doomsday by FAIL harem flag ?

Media : Manga ... haven't found novel ... and there's a bit rumor about anime project, but I doubt it ...

NOTE :
* the manga project on translation is kinda slow, could someone help them ?
* most little girl in this manga looks grown up and have rack ...
