Alright, I found a few manga that I'll suggest to you....
One is called "Shinseiki Evangelion Koutetsunogaarufurendo sekando." I guess the best way to describe this one is that it's almost like a doujinshi of Evangelion but it's official. There was a video game in Japan that was like a dating-sim game with the Eva characters. You played as Shinji and you could choose to go after Rei, Asuka, or Kaoru. It's a short series that's only four books long and the last book came out early 2005. (by Hayashi Fumino)
The other is another doujinshi-like book. There's a Phantom Brave manga made by Douman Seiman (not sure where the space goes on the name). Again it's short. However, unlike a lot of the other anthology books out there, this one was done by the same artist.
I still have a lot more manga but only now do I realize I mailed them all home because I couldn't fit them all in my luggage.
That Evangelion girlfriend manga got liscensed by ADV. Kinda bothersome since I was at around volume two. Argh.
Well, Radien. Personally, I think Akatsuki would be awesome. I love how they do Black Cat, aswell as how they did Tsukuyomi - Moon Phase. Oh, and I was hoping they'd get through He Is My Master, but that (and Tsukuyomi) got snagged by Tokyopop.
Aside from Akatsuki, I also like Anime-Waves (
http://www.animewaves.net/). They have a LARGE amount of projects and I am pretty sure at this time they're seeking Japanese translation help.

Whee, Koi Kaze chapter 29! There is a god!
Ahem *Comprises himself*
Other good groups I enjoy are ShoujoMagic (for all your Shoujo needs), Inane (for all your....well, Demon sealed inside a Ninja needs), and a few others.
http://manganews.net/ Is a good reference site thats kind of like Anime Suki, keeping lists of releases aswell as scanlators. They do not list liscensed material, by the way. So feel free to scan the scanlators list and find one that appeals to you.
When you do your first work, I'd be happy to read it.
