The Other World's Doting Was Cheat Level?! BL Anthology
The Genius Puppeteer Loves the Holy Knight Fiercely
Fantastic art and unique characters, but the plot was all over the place... There we're many things that would have needed a more throrough explanation, which made it feel like the story was incompleted. Ps. I feel like the author could have easily continued on deepening the main character's relationship. I'd recommend reading this if you're into shorter yaoi rather than those long, slowly developing ones.
Ramune no Shalala
I loved how the ramuna drink served as a symbol for their blossoming love
The Stranger in the Hoarding House
In short: Kamakura, (mc, black hair) struggles with depression and is a social outcast. His new neighbour helps cleaning his apartment, helps Kamakura with his trauma and eventually becomes the mc's love interest. Anyway... the manga emphasizes the importance of compassion and human connection, highlighting the damaging effects of dismissive attitudes, like those of Kamakura's landlord. It's a reminder to offer support to those struggling, even if their challenges aren't obvious. This was a refreshing take on social disconnection in BL manga's. (A growing issue, especially in Japan.) Kudos to the author for tackling this relevant topic with sensitivity and depth!!!
Jealousy (Scarlet Beriko)
The whole story was fucking depressing and broke my heart and fixed it too many times. Luckily we go a happy ending
Ashita wa Docchi Da!
Super duper realistic!!! Teeth clanking when kissing, proper prep before sex, realistic character design.... This is a MUST read for anyone who enjoys realistic bl manga with complex plot and character development.
Chicken Heart Serenade

His family was toxic and took away his freedom by trying to get him to marry some girl.
