If you're looking for manga that doubles as literature, I can't help at all. If you're looking for manga that's silly and fun, and sometimes sort of retarded in a good hearted way, blahblahblah, I actually recommend Gokusen, by Kozueko Morimoto, wikipedia here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gokusen
It features an idealistic granddaughter of a Yakuza boss, who decides she wants to mold teens and goes to teach at an all boys high school full of idiot delinquents. But she's not the helpless, girli-girl type of idealistic - she also kicks serious ass, and sometimes bursts out with inappropriate comments in front of students and tries to give the kids a sense of responsibility for their actions and honor that are sometimes slightly less "real world" and more "yakuza culture."
I don't know where to get it in solid form, but it's available in scanlation format from the bishounen project.
