special place in my heart

Literally a classic- probably one of the old manga that highlights BL romance well, at least for its time

heart wrenching- absolutely grabs you by the throat and dangles you into the air. Starts of happy and ends bittersweet. I hope this gets animated in one of those one episode only specials

this was aired back in early 2000s in the TV (if you from Philippines during that time, iykyk). A classic, literally modeled my personality to match Shana I was that influenced (this anime and the wallflower + fushigi yuuji bro, absolute bangers)

A lil comedy BL on the struggles of homosexuality and having a crush on your heterosexual best friend. It gets a lil angsty but does end happy- I’d say it’s a staple for BL webtoon

Literally a godsend manga. The anime ruined it after season 2 but still, the manga that pioneered my love for anime/manga overall. Still worth rereading after all this time + THE ART IMPROVEMENT WAS INSAAANE

The art might put you off, since it’s one of the somewhat older BL webtoon but it’s definitely a classic read- it’s got almost all the good troupes

I don’t need to say a lot- literally a banger anime/manga. My whole high school was centered on HQ- I lit rally got into my schools volleyball team bc of it- Haikyuu is gonna be one of those anime/manga I wanna collect and introduce to my future offspring it’s that serious
