4.5/5
[PG, slice of life, romance, found family]
+ established relationship
+ sweet with no conflict
A story about a couple who have been together for 5 years and counting. Good for a pick-me-up when you're sad.
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
[PG, fantasy, rom-com, university life]
TW: blackmail (not between MCs)
+ senior-junior relationship

This is what you call self fulfilling prophecy in the most literal sense lmao. Fun to read!
4/5
[18+, romance, supernatural]
TW: non-con kissing (kissed while passed out drunk)
+ co-workers
+ sweet
+ likeable ML
+ explicitly!! asking!! for consent!!
About a man who saw auras and the person whose aura he couldn't stay away from. Sweet without unnecessary conflict.
4/5
[18+, drama, romance]
TW: brothers incest (not between MCs)
+ strangers to lovers
+ good communication
Two strangers moving on from unrequited loves. Tender and soft. Also, when one of the MC said "sex isn't everything"? Fuck yes take all my money.

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.

4/5
[PG, rom-com, university life]
TW: stalking, bullying (not between MCs), fat-shaming
+ childhood friends to lovers
+ funny
+ 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.
4.5/5
[PG, school life, romance]
+ senior-junior relationship
+ fluffy
A cliche plot with great execution.
4.5/5
[18+, university life, slice of life, romance]
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.
4/5
[PG, school life, drama]
+ classmates
+ frienemies to lovers
+ good dynamics between MCs
A good coming of age story, surprisingly sweet.

I highly recommend 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
midnight men is a also a good story with gorgeous art
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.
Ooh, will give it a try, ive seen people complimenting it before but never rly got into it. Thank you so much for the rec!
