A lot of shoujo manga have male leads as the rich Heir with a troubled past, or abandoned/ illegitimate child of a powerful rich family etc...

I'm looking for a shoujo/Josei where the main male is actually dirt poor, maybe have part time jobs to help support himself and his family. The female lead doesn't have to be rich, but I'd prefer it.

I think the only manga that I've read similar to what I want (in terms of roles) is Kobato. which I didn't like that much 🙁

Thank you

Yamada Tarou Monogatari - more to comedy rather than romance.
Chihayafuru - Arata came from middle class family, and has been working part time since grade school.
Fujoshi Kanojo.

Try Taiyou Ouji. 😀

Billionaire girl is still pretty good. if you can stand the hiatus, i suggest checking in out

I have to agree ten thousand percent on Billionaire Girl. Read each chapter, and was so disappointed to find it was on hiatus.

In a world where troubled young hearts are besieged by evil spirits, only one can wield love as a weapon: the God of Conquests, Keima Katsuragi.

A one shot by Tsukuba Sakura

It sorta fits into your scenario... Sorta, for there's like.. a twist.. sorta.. I don't want to give anything away..so its hard to explain.. Try it if you want...

snow drop-boy comes from poor family but ended up working as model if I remember right
Hayate no Gotoku!

I would recommend for you to read :
Desire Climax (smut filled to the brim)
Yamada Taro Monogatari (hilarious)
St. Lunatic (more of a supernatural type of manga)

I'm looking for the princess very poor girl and rich guy.
