Well, I never finished this webtoon because I was tired of waiting for updates. It's been so long that I forgot the title welp. It's about this MC who has an unrequited thing for ML and finds out he's the character in a novel. MC is an artist... if you remember the title, can you tell me if it's worth finishing reading or not?

I really like High Clear, I can't seem to find something similar that's actually good T_T
Can be shounen ai, but hopefully without a ton of angst or scumbag ML and on the cuter side. Doujinshi also fine!

I hate most of my family for some complicated reasons, so I like to read about family conflict/drama between siblings especially but also conflict between parents and their children. Kind of want to know that other people are going through similar shit (even though it's fictional, it does make me feel better!)

Can you rec some good family conflict story? I like mangas and webtoons, since manhuas are so censored. I prefer BL or something without romance.

I just saw in my email an ad for Kodansha's publication of this https://kodansha.us/series/blood-blade

If you create a free account there, you can have access to the ongoing English publication

Like, for instance, a guiche, navel or nipple piercing... Other piercings welcome too like an industrial in the ear. It's better if the relationship is consensual though ( ̄∇ ̄"). I'm not really looking for some rapey shit!

Ashamed to admit it, but I like the BL trope where the relationship b/w MC and ML experiences some drama due to an annoying girl. Maybe the girl was supposed to be the original FL in a transmigration/reincarnation plot, or is just a sister, ex-gf or ex-wife. I'm a girl but I happen to like it when the annoying 3rd wheel is a girl...is there something wrong with me? smh (⊙…⊙ )
I know of some novels like this but I can't really recall this trope being used in manga/manhwa/manhua before... unless it's a novel adaptation. One last thing: I don't like reading tragedy or about abusive relationships with extreme scum ML (e.g., Paper Flower).

    lmao thx

    I don't like reading the big-time angst of tragedy but some low-key angst with happy ending is always fun right XD

    Hm, not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for but this trope comes up quite well in the later part of "A painter behind the Curtain". Actually, there is even more than one annoying woman in there.
    Either way it is a really good one, but the trope at the beginning is quite different from what you might be looking for and I personally love a little angst and tragedy IF there is a happy end.

    What I really mean by tragedy is when one of the main characters dies (for good, without a reincarnation or something like Erha). There are other ways a plot can turn into a tragedy but that's the biggest taboo for me to read about in any type of plot. That's because recently my family members have died in accidents, so reading about it in fiction is a kind of trigger. I'll check out your rec, thanks!

I really like the type of strong FL in Reporting for Duty, Duchess who has a cold temperament, doesn't really give a shit about what others think, doesn't have a weak "dodder-flower" personality, and isn't super annoying like some of the shoujo FLs I've seen. I really hate to see women characters portrayed as only interested in romance or only trying to vie for someone's affection with the "original FL" like in a rofan isekai story. I mean, in reality most of the popular and beautiful women are very talented in their own fields and can support themselves, so why do we have to read about FLs who are basically trash without ability beyond their appearance? But I'm almost always disappointed when reading hetero romance these days...

I'm looking for a yaoi manga or webtoon which features my fave tropes like innocent uke paired with perverted/domineering seme... hopefully there's not rape! I looked it up with tags but couldn't find what I wanted or I'd already read it. :( Anyone have a good recc?
