『 Hidden Gems 』

Stories I think deserve some more love
Underrated or Unknown - either lowly viewed, rated, or older stories

I tend to like stories with a unique pacing or story or style. I'm really drawn to melancholic vibes and I don't care about art style. Some of these stories, especially the lower rated ones, may not appeal to everyone but I really enjoyed them all and think they should be given a chance.

Ignore the numbers, they’re for my own organization/ordering purposes

Wind Blowing Tonight

 9.3(368 voted)
Complete
Author(s): lamatter
Genre(s): comedy / drama / shounen ai / webtoons

“ One is a smart but decadent tramp and the other is playful but gentle visually impared. Can two imperfect people help each other?”

» The story had some unclear translations at first (which later improved), but as I read I found myself getting completely drawn into the lives of the characters. It was an emotional journey that made me genuinely invested in these characters and wish for their happiness. Not perfect, but still beautiful.

What can a LIST do?

You may feel your favorite manga should be gathered together into distinct categories for your own reference and, now, you can do this with a LIST. After you've created your list or lists, you can proudly recommend them to other manga fans to showcase and share your taste in manga.

Yes omg I’d love a volume of each of the princes! I wish it was more popular, then maybe the author would be inclined to make more.
