Getbackers. On-going and damn long (35 vols and counting) but it's BRILLIANT. Plenty of action but tempered with plot, it's not just fighting. There is INFINITE slash potential - the two leads have a complicated and wonderful relationship (someone once described it as a love story without sex) and most of the other characters have someone who either seems in love with them or someone they are in love with! It's got angst - I think every main character has some dark thing in their past - but all the angst is covered up by the fact that the characters are wonderfully dorky and humourous. It's exciting and there's mysteries galore to try and solve. I absolutely adore and love it. There are scans out there somewhere but I couldn't tell you where - I buy it! (just to warn you about the only bit that really grates, most of the girls who do anything fighting relating get their clothes torn/burned/destoryed. And one of them never wears very much anyway. It's a shonen series and I generally just mumble and concentrate on whatever the next slashy bit is! The only other problem is that it takes a few volumes to totally get into the swing but the first volumes are still great fun!)

(um yes. I love Getbackers a lot. Could you tell?)

Yellow. It's short, only four volumes long but it's one of the best yaoi serieses I've actually read. Definite sharings of angst and humour and very hot chemistry between the leads. And there's a great plot to it too. Again, no idea about scans though. (I don't really do scans)

Tokyo Babylon is one I like a lot. Very angsty but still genuinely funny too. And there's buckets of slash in there.

I'll leave it at that for now! :D Hope I didn't bore you!
