a cut above -bl and shonen ai

BLs that imo are above average in terms of art/storyline/characterisation etc. 

AKA BLs that I would totally read as standalone stories even if they weren’t BLs.

Ughhh I love BLs where the ML isn’t some perfect CEO type that has the mindset and resources to enrapture MC from the beginning. Both characters are mentally in a bad place and mutually are able to grow and learn (sometimes violently) and become better versions of themselves by the end. Maybe a little too dramatic to be realistic but the messages that come across are very touching

Frankly I only read the first season cause I’m not in the mood for heavy drama atm lol but it was so good. Again I love it when ML is flawed yet redeemable and him and MC are able to work through their issues throughout the series
