#1 is kiyamoto kano of course. love her <3 she's such an inspiration n.n i cant decide which miyamoto kano series to put on this list because literally everything she writes is god tier in the BL world lol so i'll just put the rules/hydra series for now i might change it later lol
#2 is nakamura asumiko. has such a unique art style and her stories are always great. doukyuusei is one of the more cute ones. i really like her shocking/disturbing mangas a lot but the characters in this series really stuck with me xD
#3 is junko~ everything junko draws is amazing <3 her characters are adorable and the porny scenes are so hawt. and the stories are always really great and the seme is never a bastard lol.
#4 is yamamoto kotetsuko. everything she draws/writes is so good so it's hard to choose what manga for the list, but if i had to only pick one it would be konya mo nemurenai. suuuuch a hilarious manga and all the characters are really great.
#5 is katou setsuko. probably not a lot of people are into this mangaka but in my opinion her art is some of the best.
#6 is ogawa chise. i love all her yaoi mangas there's a mix of cute BL and disturbing ones. gosan no heart is one of the more cute stories.
#7 is yoneda kou. couldnt decide whether i wanted to put this one or saezuru lol but this was the first story i read by her and i still love it <3
#8 is nekota yonezou. if anyone ever starts going on about yaoihands or how supposedly bad the art is in BL manga just show them a few pages of anything drawn by nekota yonezou and they'll stfu.
#9 is cj michalski. her uke characters are so adorable whenever i feel like gushing over something cute i just read one of her mangas. no matter how messed up the story is or how much a pedo pervert the seme seems like, the uke character is worth it lol.
#10 is yamato nase. her stuff is borderline shota but the stories are usually pretty decent and the drawings are super cute especially the ukes~<3
and thats my top 10 favorite BL mangaka.
