One of the most unique (not to say best ...) manga ever !

Synopsis : Oe Kintarou is a Tokyo University Law School dropout. However, he had completed all the course work needed to graduate before leaving school. Since then, he has wandered through many jobs all over Japan as a student of life with little more than a journal, a pen, and his trusty mountain bike (the Mikazuki 5). On his journeys, he runs into various compromising situations with beautiful women, and he must use his unique talents as a jack-of-all-trades to survive, let alone have a chance to find his true calling in life. But he is far more skilled than he appears, and he is determined to succeed no matter what he does. He could be the man who will save Japan--no, the world... or maybe not. Packed with hilarious hi-jinks, lots of ecchi, ramen noodles, gracious kindness, and even some toilet hugging, Golden Boy is full of non-stop fun.

The manga is 10 volumes long, readable here : Golden Boy manga

There is an 6 episode anime, viewable here : Golden Boy anime (first one is dubbed, other are subbed)

My advice is on wathing the anime first and reading that manga on one take ^^

Ps : I'm sorry (because the end is undescribable) for the fact that there is only up to volume 8 readable (out of 10), but it's better than none.

That looks pretty interesting. I'd take the time to check it out. :)

Here's the last anime/manga I got into (since my Innitial D days)

A thug from a motorcycle gang decides to try go legit as a Jr Teacher and leads the way as an unconventionnal role model.

Love Hina was also pretty funny.
