Romance/Supernatural/Fantasy Manga?
I'm really in need of some romance manga with a supernatural fantasy genre. I would prefer if the art was more in shounen style because I dislike the sparkly flowery art of most shoujo. Please don't recommend any vampire stories.
Also, please don't recommend a manga that has have some perfect popular rich guy that's super nice and boring. No yaoi or yuri either. Sorry if I sound demanding, I'm just tired of cliche and boring manga.
Thank you. :)
Oh, I would also like the main character to be female. Thanks again. :)

1/2 Prince

Watashi no Ookami-san

i enjoyed the anime for these, but i actually haven't read the manga:
Chrono Crusade

Romance in shounen manga is hard to find (unless you're looking for harem manga or something, lol). CLAMP is actually quite good, but its art IS pretty flowery etc., so I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for.
However, I can think of one...
Chrno Crusade -- supernatural and romance, but not shoujo. It features a hyperactive nun named Rosette who is bonded to a demon named Chrno that draws his power from her life source. They obviously have a close bond. She is searching for her brother I believe. It's been a long time since I've seen it, but it was quite good; funny and mysterious. Its famous for its sad ending. You should go check it out. :)
