Michizure Policy

Complete | kitakami ren | 2008 released

My only complaint is its not longer! The conflict of Shinohara wanting to just stay friends rather than risk losing Nishioka to them breaking up was really moving and believable. I love how affectionate they are, and communicative (eventually, lol) BL without sexuality crisis is always great!!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA Only read ch 2. What a hilarious and wholesome little scenario, I love it. Slimes deserve love too! XD

Horeta Otoko wa Shin'yuu de

Ongoing | Tobiwashio | 2021 released

THIS IS IT! THE FINAL FORM OF BL+FRIENDS TO LOVERS!!! Absolutely god tier portrayal of friends to lovers Heavy on the sex, but the confession scene is the best I've ever read, ever.

Kizuato ni Kuchizuke

Complete | Amaki Io | 2000 released

This is UNBELIEVABLY sweet. Quite literally THE sweetest BL story (maybe any) I've ever read. There is SO MUCH emotional maturity and honesty and sexual openness between the characters, and I love it.

Blue Sky Complex

Ongoing | ichikawa kei | 2013 released

I love this manga of course but I'm not sure what going on with all this drama in Vol 8-9... Drama finished! (I hope) Still wondering if any of the side characters are going to pair off, like Nori and Alex maybe. Ch 50 and I'm still hoping Nori finds happiness

Lovesick Hypocrites

Complete | Matsumoto yoh | 2022 released

Very interesting!! -1 for the boss being yandere, didn't need to do that far. But! It felt like justified sexual drama, a bit HBO tbh; ie people making ill-advised dramatic statements for the sake of impact, beliving their position to be unassailable (and that's how Ned died!!). Also fulfilled my neverending need for domesticity. The story realistic presents a couple that moved may to fast making up the difference as friends before reconciling. A 4 fav! Uncensored, but not great dick anatomy, lol.

Shitto wa ai o Kumoraseru

The one about the piano students - short but good, heavy on the drama without going too far. A mature story without a bunch of familiar tropes. And a very happy ending! I like how assertive Takase was.

Tasogare Outfocus Overlap

Complete | Janome | 2022 released

A very cute and necessary coda to Tasogare Outfocus. <3 I hope this makes it into the anime as well!

Zanzou Slow Motion

Complete | Janome | 2019 released

I love this story now! It's been the gift that keeps on giving. I'm really curious to see how much of the manga makes it into the anime.

Yoiyoi Monologue

Complete | Janome | 2020 released

This series is so satisfying! Having read all four volumes now, Janome has a preference for sensitive tops and assertive bottoms. Overall is really nice to see characters who aren't so easily defined by their 'roles', and the care they take to recognize and support each other through insecurities. Someone commented the are reminded them of Classmates, and it does have a similar vibe. A satisfyingly loose artistic expression (though not nearly as loose as Classmates), and an emphasis on slice of life storytelling that builds romantic tensions and resolution through regular, everyday interactions.
