Bromance, Friendship and Family (Non-BL)

Incomplete List, still organising, might remove some manga.

Varying degrees of friendship from loose 'group of friends' adventuring together to two close friends/ family and queerbaiting.

*Some 'bromance' type manga are tagged as shounen ai but it's just a lot of fanservice without any confirmed feelings or they're still ongoing etc. I will put a comment.
