   umm, a manga with no central theme or goal last more than 10 years via   
   the strength of offering you a zen like experience?  YKK is pretty   
   unique in that aspect, you can find title that is similiar in art style,   
   (twin spica), or w/o a central theme, (any of the 4 panel strips.) even   
   in mood and atmosphere, (some of the shoujo come in mind, especially a   
   short portions of KareKano, Petshop of Horrors, etc.  which give you a   
   dreamy, mystical experience.) but as a total package? I do not read   
   enough manga to think of one.   
      
   I am sure Chris will mention Mushishi, but the feeling it offer, IMO, is   
   different than YKK, one is to resepct the nature, the other is to   
   appreciate it.
