i really really really love the etranger series because it feels real and the art is so cute and beautiful
the story is so interesting, it let's you see everyone's pov, it also makes you reflect on life and want to change the world to make it a easier place to live.
as for the relationship there are ups and downs but they really treasure each other. one of the best pieces i've read
it's truly one of the funniest and sweetest mangas i've read.
ah this is based on a real life story of a japanese gay rights activist
childhood friends to lovers
i love that we can see their friendship evolving thru the years until they are finally a couple. their relationship is the sweetest.
also loved the conversations they had with there friends regarding love between same sex relationships. super super healthy and supportive.
it has a spin off called here you are
historical story between a gentle giant that saves a dying slave.
bongchun (t) is head over heels for soongap (b); and together they try to build the best lives they can afford.
there are many lows in their lives, and even sexual assault but never between them.
this manga is more than just shounen ai, it represents the lgbtq+ community pretty well and not just fetishises it.
