Gachiiki Chouhatsu Night

 9.1(165 voted)

Author(s): ikuyasu
Genre(s): Smut / Yaoi

Not a manga I expected to add to my list but it's surprisingly wholesome and has more going on than constant sex between the two main characters, who also both show good character development. Not a fan of the drunken sex trope but oh well, I enjoyed everything else.

I didn't love the main story this is a spin-off of, but this was very cute and both characters are infinitely more likeable and sweet together.

Kazoku Ni Narouyo

Author(s): KURAHASHI Tomo
Genre(s): Yaoi / Romance

Adding it much more for the family/slice of life aspect than the romance (established couple so not much is explored). Very cute dynamics between all the characters, and reading it will leave you feeling good after.

A nice change of pace since it's more serious and mature. It needs to be read with its sequel though if you want more development for the central romance and for the central issues surrounding their relationship to be answered.

Yoake no Uta

Ongoing
Author(s): Yuno Ichika
Genre(s): Drama / Fantasy / Romance / Yaoi

SO interesting...Very solid manga with beautiful art, interesting characters and an intriguing plot. This falls into a grey area for me in terms of the relationship between the two main characters: although I love their romance, the fact that one of them was a child when they first meet and grows up by the other one's side is a bit uncomfortable for me. I guess it's somewhat better that romantic feelings develop once both parties are of age but it still remains worth pointing out. 4.5

SUPER INTERESTING! Another period manga where the author successfully conveys the longing and restrained feelings the characters have for each other.
