Renchard's manga / #Shounen Ai(44)

A Guy Like You

Complete | Waje | 2016 released

This started off really strong with a lot of potential, but in the end I really didn’t feel anything at all. The villain got off WAY too easily and the main characters were really annoying all the way up until the very end. The plot and supernatural element is this BLs strongest point. I’m super invested with the Fate and Envy stones, and I loved their inclusion. I wish we had a few more BLs with this kind of magical/superpower elements within them that are also used in fights. I wish the author would’ve leaned into this element instead of that awful rape plot. Ugh, this story had too much sexual assault for my taste, and it isn’t even handled decently. The main character is even THREATENED to be raped by his love interest and that whole thing is brushed away. That’s really the main thing keeping me from loving the BL, because the main love interest was just toxic and the main character is just dumb.

Hush (Today)

Complete | Today | 2000 released

This story was really sweet and simple. I really enjoyed how it started, but after the midpoint it became like every other BL manhwa. I heard there’s a sequel to this story, so maybe it improves. Can’t wait to see it!

This manga is just so beautiful. There is no other words that can describe it. The story is just beautiful, and I love every single character so much.

My Darling Signed In

Complete | Dimang, New Lung | 2018 released

I loved this BL so much! The characters were just all so like-able, and the plot was really good. The characters developed realistically, and I could really feel their love for each other. Whenever some conflict happened I could feel that they could talk it out. They were just so cute! I wish it never would’ve ended, but I believe what we got was sufficient. The story ended in a satisfying way and I’m glad I got to read such a beautiful story!

Back to School

Complete | Oryu | 2019 released

This BL was much darker than expected. It wasn’t really your typical romance BL, but instead it was a story of a teenager overcoming their past trauma. I felt extremely bad for the mc, but I truly loved seeing him grow and develop as he overcame his trauma. The love interest was also really sweet, and he was a great help to the mc. I loved seeing the two, and I’m glad they got their happy ending!

The Story About You x Me

Complete | wangcaideju,atias | 2000 released

The slow-burn is killing me! I love it though! The characters are really interesting and the art style is just beautiful! I can’t wait until these two idiots finally confess to each other!

I will be waiting for you in 1999

Complete | D. Jun | 2000 released

This was a very tear-jerking one. I don’t think I’ve ever cried while reading, but this one was close. If only the ending was not so rushed. I would’ve liked to know what happened next. I also don’t really see the Shounen Ai part of the manhwa. The MCs never acted nor showed romantic interest in each other, so I feel like it shouldn’t be classified as a Shounen Ai.

Path to You

Complete | Sinran,Kisai Entertainment | 2000 released

I just loved how soft this BL was. It made me smile just seeing these two go on their journey together. There may have been a few bumps, but in the end it was just an amazing and fluffy journey!

Sweet Man

Complete | Haejin | 2015 released

This BL was surprisingly very plot oriented. I expected it to be like every other vampire BL, but this one was different. It had clear lore and an interesting story. The romance was also very cute, and I enjoyed each and every couple. The character development was also very shocking to see, as almost every character got some sort of development and they grew as people. The main character was especially developed really well as they grew stronger and gained the respect of others. I love this story to pieces and I cannot recommend it enough!

False Memories (Lee Gpiee)

Complete | Lee Gpiee | 2000 released

This story was really good and enjoyable. The overall concept of deceit was a really good idea, though the execution was a little sloppy. I did like the feeling of anxiety as I wondered when all the lies would be revealed, but the outcome of that was underwhelming. The villain also got off way too easily, and the ending was a bit abrupt. I wish we would’ve gotten a little bit more in the end. I did really like this story despite all it’s flaws, I recommend you read it! It’s a cute Shounen Ai and I really did love it!
