good BL, no rape between MCs + trigger warning (part 1)

☆

[PG, school life, rom-com, slice of life]

+ established relationship
+ sweet and innocent love

Two good boys with extreme opposite personalities being in love with each other. Sadly this is too short, i need 25 volumes of them together.

☆

[18+, rom-com, slice of life, university life]

TW: fwb & dub-con/drunk sex (2nd couple)

+ 1st couple: senior-junior
+ 2nd couple: enemies to fwb to lovers
+ funny as hell
+ asexual representation

I just love the way the MCs talk openly about lust and sex, showing that discussing what you and your partner enjoy in bed is not something you should shy away from--it's one of the things you should prioritize.

☆

[18+, fantasy, historical, drama, romance]

TW: interspecies sex, tentacles, dub-con

This manga made me speechless, honestly. It's amazing. I avoided reading for so long because of the interspecies thing, but boy was i a fool for judging this manga based on the tentacle porn. From the opening scene to the end, everything is captivating and will certainly make your heart ache in a good way.

☆

[PG, romance, slice of life]

+ strangers to lovers
+ realistic

Two ordinary people, meeting ordinarily, falling in love ordinarily, yet it still manages to be beautiful. The romance is so realistic and natural you can't help but hope that you'll get to have something like this. I desperately want to read the rest soon!

☆

[18+, drama]

TW: internalized homophobia, homophobia, racism, bullying, blackmail

+ switch couple
+ great writing
+ good characters, plot and development

This webtoon, man... it can be a bit hard to read, but it will be worth it. Seriously, the amount of emotion that i was feeling while reading this is unreal. It's terrifying, beautiful, hurtful, and hopeful.

☆

[PG, school life, romance]

TW: non-con groping (not between MCs), predator teacher

Geez, what can i say about this manga? This and the direct sequel (http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sotsugyousei/) are all i want from a coming of age/romance story. Trust me when i tell you that this is the holy grail of high school BL. So good and memorable. This has tons of other sequels/spin off, they're good too, just please for the love of god ignore the teacher. Just skip him altogether.

☆

[18+, rom-com]

TW: boss-subordinate relationship

+ manly badass switch couple
+ funny as hell
+ good dynamic between MCs

Oh gosh i love them so much! Their chemistry is off the charts-- Idek how many times i've reread this, yet it's still crazy fun to read. Really wish we could see this type of rom-com on screen.

☆

[18+, slice of life, romance, university life]

TW: homophobia, bullying, age gap (side pair)

+ enemies to friends to lovers
+ family feels
+ good writing and art

What a ride! A binge-worthy manhua about young people and their journey in discovering their sexuality and relationship with their loved ones, and it has a degree of realness that will stab and heal your heart at the same time. Not perfect by any means, but a good read nonetheless.

☆

[18+, university life, slice of life, rom-com]

TW: dub-con because of alcohol, non-con groping, sexual favors (2nd couple), professor × student (2nd couple)

+ friends to lovers
+ great writing
+ interesting characters and development

The quality of writing and research that went into this manga was unreal. It's a rom-com in a university setting but it's also much more than that. It's a Good One, really hard to find this kind of BL mangas nowadays.

☆

[18+, rom-com, slice of life]

One of my weakness: middle aged men being ridiculously in love with each other. This author wrote a really believable romance between friends of 25 years, with good humor and enjoyable banters among the main and side characters. I love it.
