Rec for a good modern shoujo manhwa, but not cheesy or extremely toxic? I don’t like when the drama is the “love” thing itself, like a group of friends and their drama and weird relationship triangles and all that pizzas

Have you read any of these?
Wow omg thank you
I just started reading Punch Drunk Love and had to take a walk around my room 2 chapters in, chat will I ever be able to finish this secondhand embarrassment is TEWWW much for me
It gets better I promise
EXACTLY I CANT READ IT BC OF THE EMBARRASSMENT. The guy with glasses seems like he’d drop everything to hump on ml’s arms bro
HAHAHAHHA I WAS LIKE THAT TO, PREPARE TO WALK MORE THAN A MILE COZ FROM START TO END ITZ EMBARRASSING
We had the same tolerance i was also 2 chapters in and i had to drop it
Same I never picked it back up
Yall are weak and missing out on peak. Whenever I reread it tho I skip the first 30ish chapters cuz I ain’t sitting through that sheer cringe again but I SWEAR it’s peak
i'm on ch 43 rn, i actually like how stupidly unique the mc is
Looking at the newly updated yaoi’s is so disappointing, 90% of the stories in there are so ass it’s actually unbelievable
I understand. There’s a few here and there that hit though. Unfortunate update schedules though
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/leo/
That’s why Shounen Ai is better you should definitely read this
Shounen ai is genuinely the best thing ever
no theyre acc just writing anything now its horrifying
any feel-good bls where the plot isn't heavy? i'm in finals season now and i want to read stories i can read on my breaks/when i want to wind down and doesn't need much brain power
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/i_ship_my_rival_x_me/ - this one the episodes are pretty short and its just super cute

Enjoy
Tysm everyone
does anyone have an idiot x idiot bl list or any recommendations where the the mc and ml are just unhinged idiots
not a list but try "my ideal type and I are dying" (they aint dying but both of them rich CEOs that share a single braincell)
Red String Quest
”Did it work” (really funny)
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/did_it_work/
Don’t know if it counts, but it’s very short (only a few chapters, although there is a sequel): ”Karasugaoka don’t be shy”

I would recommend o "Lover x Robber". It's a cute dumb x dumber couple + the side couple is kinda crazy as well lol
Robber x Lover* actually
I always mix up this title #－.－)
We literally have the same taste omg I’m so gonna reread them. https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/fujimi_no_meinichi/ is a perfect there
ooh i'll read that one thx
I love both of those ty
Ty to everyone for the recs I’ll be reading them all
bl mangas mog bl manhwas so bad but get shit rating for no reason smh, sometimes I just have to go on a bl manga reading spree to understand why I started reading bl fr
RIGHT???? and its crazy because most of them are around 4 to 5 chapters long but have SO much substance
And they’re all not the same cheap copy of each other with the same plot points again and again
fr no cap. same opinion LOLL
okay i disagree about them not having the same plot (cuz a lot of them def do) but the ones that hit, hit sooo hard. srsly its insane how much heart they can pack into 5-6 chapters
Meant that while bl mangas do have the same plot and tropes, they tend to kind of not go to the EXTREME extreme when it comes to copying like manhwas do. Korean manhwas whether being villainess manhwas, dungeon, murim or bl, straight up have the exact same lines too though there are still banger bl manhwas that hit really good too. I feel like it’s much easier to find a good manga, I’d say 6/10 new mangas are readable whereas for bl manhwas I’m lucky if 1/10 new manhwas are good
ohhh okay yeah i get what u mean now, i totally agree. manhwa is truly the fast food of the asian comics industry (which is crazy cuz mangas are way shorter most of the time)
people on this site give shit ratings to everything that has more than 2 dialogue balloons and isn't sex-heavy trash that's why
Rec for a good completed bl, can’t find anything to read nowadays.
Forgot the mandatory shouldn’t be making me rip my hair out of anger or any annoying semes
incidentally dyed by spring's love
hyanghyeon text
please give me any recs for a historical shoujo manhwa where the fl isn't a mary sue type of character, no harem, ppl being obsessed with her for no reason, the ml isn't a prick, and doesn't transmigrate into a childs body.
i think i read most shoujos out there but pls give it a shot if you have any recs
does anyone else feel uncomfortable and drop a lot of alpha x alpha stories because of the way the main characters (and the author) talk about omegas and how they look down upon them?
it kinda feels like when it's "normal" yaoi and the female characters are treated extremely weird. both the omegas and the female characters are potrayed as like, a lesser being that's inherently evil, bratty, childish and stupid, idk. I don't know how to explain it, it just feels extremely iffy and a lot of readers feed into it too.
i get u LMFAO
there's this big energy for alpha x alpha too but barely any for omega x omega which is kinda...
100% is so uncomfortable. In the first place omegaverse has become a parallel of how patriarchal society is in real life so even in alpha xomega stories you still get the same level of discrimination towards omegas
I straight drop more than half of all ABO stories I pick up bc of this, recently I've been into one of them being a beta bc then there's not much of that misogynistic bs
I didn't outright drop them, but I also noticed this in more than one story
exactly, the discriminations that omegas go through naturally feels like an extension of a patriarchal society. the week long "heat" cycles, being weaker, able to get pregnant, and potrayed as being both less smarter and talented than alphas...
it kinda pains me seeing how some yaoi readers treat omegas like how they usually talk about female characters in yaoi. and i especially hate a lot of alpha x alpha stories because the comments are sooooo weird, and the author also potrays the omegas so weirdly. and it's always in the premise of how one of the alpha characters doesn't like omegas/has some sort of trauma with them/finds them bratty or annoying, a.k.a not "good enough" for them. like why can't it just be that they naturally fell in love with another alpha and leave omegas alone
true but the verse is built on an inherently discriminatory system thats meant to resemble modern patriarchal systems so its not surprising to see readers feeding into these misogynistic ideas. the forks were in fact found in the kitchen
ooops mento to reply to original commentator my bad
fork found in kitchen indeed
ok actually, rec for a shoujo that ISN’T “oh no I died and reincarnated into this child’s body, I have a weird obsession with my dad that I mask as fangirling, my male lead is the boy I’m going to be growing up with (and yes I’m a grownass woman mentally), and no women are allowed other than me so don’t even think about me having a mother !” type of stories tyvm
Kaichou wa maid sama
Kitchen princess
Akatsuki no yona
Kamisama kiss
Absolute boyfriend

Don't worry, we both agreed to this fraudulent marriage
-Really cool FL (though the perspective character is ml!) who's in a fraudulent marriage, because someone is after the Duke's life and she's strong enough to protect him
Burner effect
-I lied. Not shoujo. But the best FL ever, she's so badass
Exclusive maid to the evil empress
-Fl is maid who's duty is to protect the hated empress, who's own husband refuses to interfere in her harassment. There's a responsible kind ml, magic fights and good plot.
Tyy
Can you give me the link for Burner effect I can’t find it on here
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/burning_effect/
Ily for asking! I forgot that the unofficial translation changed it to burning effect (the main character's name is burner)
