So, I've come across a couple anime/manga that are... Well, very A+! You would do well to look into them!
The first, I believe Zeph has previously recommended.
Soul Eater revolves around a small group of young teens at a school called Shibusen, which trains their students to prevent the resurrection of the Demon God. Of the students, there are Meisters and Weapons. Weapons, while usually in human form, take on the appearance and functionality of a weapon when need be. Meisters are the human partners which wield those weapons. Students are paired up based on how well their souls "resonate" with each other. Their ultimate goal is to collect 99 souls of those who have become potential new Demon Gods, and then the soul of a single Witch, in order to bring their weapon to their next stage in evolution- turning them into a Deathscythe, a weapon of Death himself (who frequently makes appearances in the anime and manga, being the creator and owner of Shibusen).
Soul Eater is BIG on laughs, and balances it out with an appropriate amount of serious stuff. The characters are equally easy to hate and like at the same time for their various traits, and entirely well-made. I'd definitely recommend Soul Eater to anyone interested in anime or manga.
The next anime/manga...
Sayonara, Zetsubou Sensei! (hereafter referred to as "SZS"). SZS is primarily about a school teacher with particularly quirky habits. For a start, he's perpetually in despair about every small and ordinarily negligible detail in the world, and each instance of extreme despair causes him to attempt suicide. As far as I know, he hasn't actually killed himself yet. As such, he is given plenty of time over the course of the anime/manga to learn to cope with his bizarre class. Almost every member of his class is female, and they all seem to have some sort of ridiculous quirk of their own, such as being a hikikomori (a horribly timid shut-in and agoraphobic person), obsessively stalking boyfriends, or being horribly OCD and requiring perfection for every little thing (such as making sure both of your socks are the same height).
SZS has an interesting art style, and is 100% comedic gold. If most anything in anime or manga tends to tickle your funny bone, SZS is about the epitome of hilarity. I definitely recommend you check it out- particularly the anime.
Conveniently, both of these are available at http://www.animeseason.com ! Feel free to check it out- I tend to watch a little something from there everyday!
