Can I pleaasseee get a romance, of any kind I suppose, where both characters actually have lives and feelings? Not just “I live to love you” bullshit, especially for the ML
OHH ABSOLUTELY "rainbow city" (novel) manhwa works too but its slow burn and havent developed that much yet and also the novel does a better job at actually expressing the character's emotions. The ML at first will seem like your average fboy but its all an act and if you read it closely you can genuinely understand how well written he was and the mc as well. He'll devote himself to the mc but at the same time he does his own thing, has his own thoughts and cares about the people around him as well though he doesn't show it, nor does it tell you straight up. (but when you a die hard Major Kwak (the seme) defender like me, you'll really understand everything he does). The side characters also have their own stories, the main leads as well and it all connects back to the lore so so so well, I can't recommend it highly enough. Only thing is he does try to put his shlong in the mc's mouth while he's sleeping in chap 3 of the manhwa, chap 2 of the novel translated and chap 1 of the novel raw on booktoki, but that's about it and you can even skip it if you want. Other than that, I will defend this man to my dying breath.
A romance manga where the couple starts dating in high school but the story continues into their college life? Like cherry blossoms in winter.
There are two sequels to this one, it covers them from hs to uni. Also spin-offs for the seme's brothers

Btw read this first before that https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/hush_today/
Omg I can’t think of the name of the manga.
It’s one of those “real world turned into a dungeon mmo” stories.
The guy has a super low rank skill but when he gets killed he gets the power to go 4 seconds into the past every time he dies. So he kills himself hundreds of times to go back into the past and get revenge
Can we talk about how much manga perpetuates unsafe sex practices?? Not just some of the unsavory scenes with lack of consent but just the extremely unrealistic, romanticized, or downright dangerous practices that go on. I can exclude a LOT of manga from this critique because they're targeted as smut, but then we have some seriously unok practices.. I really like some manga that brings up the issues that normal people have to face during sex? Like the fear of getting an std, real pain when its you're first time, etc.
Can we also talk about the fact that there is SO MUCH CHILD PORN in manga. I'm sorry but teenagers having sex is still child pornography and its not relatable because its not realistic.. I wish more manga artists acknowledged this at the very least. Japan's sex culture is extremely toxic and fetishized, and it leaks heavily into their manga in unsafe ways…thanks for coming to my ted talk
When I was around 17-20 I used to read DJs and smut with high school main characters. As I grew older, the thought of reading smut with below 18 y/o main characters just make me "eugh". However, teenagers having sex is not "not realistic". Personally, I live in a very conservative country. I'm in my 20s but I'm still a virgin. In other countries tho, like in the US, they lose their virginity in their teens (around 16-17) and some even shame you if your still a virgin in your 20s. I personally don't mind, tho sometimes I do want to fulfill my urges but I don't have a partner and haven't had one yet. It really depends on your upbringing and cultural background. As for Japan, according to a quick google search (may require more research) the average japanese loose their virginity around 19-20.
But yeah, sometimes whenever I read stories with non-con content, the story just won't feel the same way anymore. What really irks me is when one of the characters (usually the uke or the female character) looks so young. I just can't even though I love stories with age gap as long as they both like above 25 y/o. I love stories with cute height differences, but when the other character is literally drawn like a fcking child, I just don't even bother.
I just hope that the teens in this site will eventually realize the rights and wrongs once they get older and mature. Don't let the exposure ruin your moral compasses. I admit there was a time when I was so immune to red flags in mangas/manhwas etc since I started reading on wattpad and AO3 at an early age. But now, I know better.
Can I get some recommendations for arranged marriages! Straight or not doesn’t matter, I also don’t care if it’s cheesy or not as long as it’s got a 9.0 rating!
