Collection of Great BL Reads 2

Pretty cute! A first year is a whiz at gathering information but screws up when he's tasked to find out about a scar on his senior's forehead. I really like the pacing of the story and how the two slowly got closer to each other and eventually bear feelings for the other.

wow really interesting piece! Features a monster who's ever lived in the forest and a charming gentlemen who's more than what meets the eye. The monster falls in love with the gentlemen and requests that he bring him on his travels (more like escape from his pursuers). I really like the art, and the adventure style plot. Looking forward to more development!

This has been a story of heartache thus far, and I think I'll continue to hope that our MC to attain happiness till the end of this manga. Sold tby his father, the MC spent most of his life shut in a room to be a proxy painter for a unscrupulous family. He'll be saved by a merchant eventually but doesn't seem to be free from being a pawn in the games of politics and power. I can only hope that the people who genuinely care for him will stick by him through thick and thin. [Chap. 34]

Really enjoy the art, and the expressions brought out. It's a classic become a guarantee for a friend but end up in debt trope, and the MC decides to prostitute himself in order to repay said debts. He caught the eye of an influential yakuza and was contracted to be his personal whore. Its still a couple of chapters so far but I'm looking forward to the progress of this piece.

Too cute! A boy possessed by a fox spirit reveals his ears and tail whenever he's in a state of surprise. He homestays with a family of monks in hopes to control his condition and his fox spirit somehow falls in love with one of the sons. I really enjoy the art and the expressions - very vivid and multifaceted.

wow the heartache is real, this manga contains an assortment of stories, all pretty touching in one way or another. The art is fantastic, and they deal with some pretty heavy but loving feelings like self sacrifice for love. My favorite has to be the third story with a futuristic backdrop. Am normally not a fan of sci-fi but the plot is too good to put down.

This piece has really gentle, heartwarming vibes, depicts a simple life between two men, one who escaped back to the countryside after losing his job in the city and the other, a happy go lucky orphan who seems too kind to a fault. Really enjoyed seeing the friendship grow into something more tender and beautiful.

This was pretty sweet, I enjoyed the rivalry between the pair of schoolmates in terms of grade rankings, such a wholesome competition especially towards the end when they use the outcome to add a special play to their relationship. I also really liked the characteristics of the seme and his family, and as well as the character growth of the stubborn uke.

A mistake made in high school comes back to haunt our lovesick seme when his ex-lover is hired at his workplace. I like that both characters, though they carry the burdens of the past, decide to move forward, forgive and overcome it together. I think both of them have very charming personalities, and this piece was equally nostalgic as it was bittersweet because of all the flashbacks interwoven into the present.

This is an adorable piece about a couple with an age gap. Divorced and weary, our ML's life seem to revolve around working with no regard for self care. He starts to frequent a restaurant where he meets a youthful part-timer who built rapport with him and they eventually start a unusual relationship besides the one of customer and shopkeeper. I really enjoy the ML's mature monologue and see how their relationship revitalised him in all aspects. Really sweet read!
