I'm looking for a story about a smart main character whose everyday life is boring. About 70% of the text is just their thoughts. They don't know what they want to do in life, or what they want. Simply just "I don't know." Preferred if they don't have many friends. I'm okay with romance if it's subtle and doesn't really dominate the entire story. 3a85s

No hentai or any of that flashy stuff please, or any ai's

iris zero

best shonen manga couples :

shinichi X ran
natsu X erza
ippo X kumi
naruto X gaara

Read it, but not quite what I"m looking for

mayb Yesterday o Utatte fits - but the main character isn't smart

Okay, before jumping to conclusion and thinking it's hentai and stuff
let me just say it's not. Sure it's a little perverted but the story is
a true slice of life. It has depth and overall I found it to be pretty good.
Give it a try.

@xxkuroxx: I'll still read it 😛

@ForteAtrox: I already read it

Thanks for all the recommendations! 🙂

Sora no Shita Yane no Naka

How about this?

Solanin

That's a pretty hard request, and i don't think it fits everything but you can try NHK.

i think death note suits your character description..
Light yagami is a very intelligent guy,,tired of his everyday life..

Its a very popular series..

For this love of god this. Kurosawa is a masterpiece.

Yes, Onani Master Kurosawa definitely. The story is amazing as it is touching, and the character growths are very dramatic but also very realistic. Despite it's somewhat disturbing themes (its a psychological so expect it), they only contribute more to the story and are not just thrown in there for fanservice. I highly recommend it.
