Well, I read a bit of 2 manga tonight, Saki-Biyori and Hinamatsuri.

Saki-Biyori has some cute art, but I didn't really get the jokes and the story is pretty confusing... Actually, I'm not really sure what it's about...

Hinamatsuri though was quite interesting. It was a little confusing as well, but pretty funny. The girl is pretty calm, despite having some crazy powers and casually dealing with some serious situations. Actually, so is her guardian. I think it's the art style, which is pretty relaxed and realistic, not using the usual exaggerated expressions in other manga. Sometimes the artwork seems odd, like the girl looking really short in one panel, but then taller in another. It can be inconsistent at times. It's definitely fun and interesting though.

I would imagine you'd have a hard time with Saki-Biyori!  It's a Saki 4-koma spin-off.  It's the characters from that being cute and funny.

Hinamatsuri is awesome.  It can be funny one minute and touching the next.  So many of the supporting characters have plenty of spot-light chapters where they grow and evolve.  

Also, Hitomi's mom is SO CUTE.  She is also an online RPG gamer, amazingly enough.

 

Yeah, I enjoyed what I read and the dynamic between the yakuza guy and girl is quite great. The art style is interesting enough that I want to see more of it, so I'll add this one to my list as well, haha.
