Well, my personal favourite is Alice 19th (but thats girly and you can only get it in the states it seems), so!

Try Ororon, I've got the first book here with me (the 2nd one is lost at home, but I think Craig has a copy), and you are welcome to take a peek.  Its a tokyopop demon fighty one.

Dears is good too, but only for hot semi-naked alien chicks.  Same with Chobits (although I prefer the manga to the series so far)

i havnt heard of any of them >.<
but they sound good ^^
anything by CLAMP! they are brilliant!
all of the manga that they make is focused around about 7 people, and it goes through what they do in loooads of diffrent worlds, its brilliant and the art is really good too ^^
oh oh and death note! thats brilliant too!
Lez can tell you about that!

Amazon is the best place for manga, as they sell it cheap and they sell thigns that you technically shouldn't get in this country (and still do in FP) like Alice 19th and Death Note. Personally I recommend just about anything that's been published by Viz under Shounen Jump and Shounen Jump Advanced - stuff like Death Note, Hikaru no Go, Naruto, Bleach, and Shaman King (OMFG LUFFFFF) for good action-based interesting stories (though Death Note far transcends them all plotwise ). For something a litte more adult, check out Priest, Trigun, Samurai Champloo, Ragnarok, and all sorts of Tokyopop stuff.

And everyone should read Minekura's Saiyuki; the anime is a bit shite, but that's really in comparison to the abso-frigging-lutely gorgeous amazing and fabulous manga.

I pretty much only read action and BL stuff.
