I'm an anime fan, more so than manga (yes there's a difference, anime is something the kids can watch like pokemon, digimon, its all sweet and nice, where as manga is more brutal, theres blood, war, etc involved) but from time to time I like a bit of manga.
My first anime I ever watched was Salior Moon back when I was a wee little girl, that followed soon with Cardcaptors, Wedding Peach and Toyko Mew Mew. Then I was introduced to Manga, like She: Ulimate Weapon, Akira, Appleseed... (All very much boy things..... big boobs, big guns, lots of blood.....) and then I found Hell Girl, also known as Jigoku Shoujo.... which is about a girl who takes peoples souls for a favour, like perhaps, making someone disappear into hell.... very deep and very clever and very very dark... now the first few episodes are on youtube, and then 6-9 disappear and then they disappear at 13.... the series I don't think is allowed on youtube due to the age restrictions and copyright reasons....
Although, has anyone ever looked on CEX's website?
I have found EVERY SINGLY anime and manga series ever made on there.... its like ebay but better and cheaper... yeah the things are second hand, but there's no bidding.... Hell Girl volume 1 is £4! Bargain.....
But yes anime... if you're unsure about it, I mean... most games use alot of it, Final Fantasy is anime-like, although it is becoming more lifelike.... but its worth even youtubing a video to see if you find anything you like... theres stuff out there for everyone.
It's not even a new thing. Princess Monokoe.... old old OLD manga... like 1970s.... bloody good film...
Only thing I recommend if you do watch them though, is, as tempting as it is to just stick on the English Dub, watch it in Japanese with the subs on.... yeah ok, its harder to follow and some bits dont make sense, buts theres something about it that is so... memerising....
