the era of big-eyed shoujo characters

shoujo and josei manga that started publishing in the 1990s

McBling, Y2K fashion, Frutiger Metro, Funky Seasons, pink, kawaii stuff, glittery sparkles, girly shit, whatever would've made the 5-year-old everythinggirl.com fan in me happy ⋆

I'm glad someone came up with a name for this specific aesthetic I've been craving for again, seriously been waiting for years; "Cyber Stylin'" sounds like an interesting name. Also discovering all these after a while start to make me think of magazines like Seventeen for some reason... I guess cuz this unsurprisingly became a retro shoujosei stack lolol

Here are some of the best shoujosei mangas I've read so far. Most of them are school romance with comedy and/or drama. I did also include two classics of the magical girl genre and some with minor fantasy/ supernatural themes but no "real" fantasy mangas apart from that.

For my fantasy shoujo list check out the link down below:
