good BL, no rape between MCs + trigger warning (part 2)

A list of BL works I enjoyed reading

- no rape between main characters
- consent is priority
- non-abusive & non-heteronormative relationship
- some contain dub-con scenes but I'll make sure to put TW
- ongoing works that turn out problematic will be deleted
- rating depends on my personal preference

4/5

[18+, anthology, supernatural, slice of life]

+ interesting plot
+ good writing

This anthology centers around a god of death and the loneliness of the people he attracted. I love these short stories, they're intriguing and new, i wish they were longer but i'm also fine with the way they are.

4/5

[18+, drama, school life, romance]

TW: age gap (late 20s × 3rd yr hs student), teacher × student

+ highschool romance
+ teacher-student relationship
+ no underage sex

There's nothing new with the plot but it's a better teacher x student story than a lot others.

TW: stalking, bullying (not between MCs), fat-shaming

+ childhood friends to lovers

+ well written

A guy reunited with his childhood neighbor in a rather suspicious circumstances. This webtoon shows us how subjective it is whether the actions of someone are creepy or not.

TW: homophobia

+ senior-junior relationship
+ respectful MCs
+ EXCELLENT communication!
+ demisexuality

This was so soft oh my god. Two plant nerds being nerds and adorable and respectful to each other's space. I also love how they communicated and discussed things properly before they progress into sexual relationship, and how they took their time to get used to it.

What can a LIST do?

You may feel your favorite manga should be gathered together into distinct categories for your own reference and, now, you can do this with a LIST. After you've created your list or lists, you can proudly recommend them to other manga fans to showcase and share your taste in manga.

I highly recommend Neko x Neko.
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/neko_x_neko/
It's about an already established couple who have been together for a few years already. One day the uke suddenly gets the desire to push down the seme. It's a good story and it's so rare to found stories about seke/reverse couples.

id also recommend rivalry (sanggeuk) and big&big ! both are consensual, good characters and art... big&big is super funny too and rivalry is very interesting (with clichés but in the entertaining way)

and Love so pure!!! their love really is pure... for both couples in it

human610 August 17, 2022 1:27 pm

If you want a good dom/sub dynamic series set in the real world, i HIGHLY recommend https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/my_partner_s_tastes_and_fetishes/
It's so so good and has really healthy dynamics, includes aftercare, redefining boundaries and discussions after scenes (and the dom sticks to the boundaries until the sub gives permission in the future to push them in their play), and when the sub uses the safety signal/safe word, the dom stops *immediately*. Some of the kink is RACK and CNC but they handle it really well (again, it's negotiated and discussed). They may be idiots who are bad at feelings but their kink dynamic is a really good one.
