AGE GAP REINCARNATION SUPERNATURAL
Multiple couples, all connected in some way, have reincarnated in modern day japan. They go through new challenges in their new bodies, facing age difference, change in species, ignorance etc. A guy and his cat are now a student and teacher. Two enemies in arranged marriage are now a lovey dovey couple. A devoted couple of a sickly girl and passionate boy are now a teenager and elementary schooler. A princess and her knight are now students as well.
HEIGHT DIFFERENCE DELINQUENT
Koyuki san is in love with the schools biggest delinquent, Masakatsu...who is actually incredibly short. The feeling is mutual and they must overcome many struggles as a couple. The first being Koyuki's insecurities. This manga has short and sweet chapters and is an easy read.
Rin is an incredibly talented actress, and part of her schools drama club. She is in love with her senpai Eiji, another member of the club who's desire is a harem all to himself. To capture his attention and grow closer she acts as all the stereotypical harem tropes (tsundere, ice princess, etc) for him. Eventually they begin a life together :)
Kaguya and Shirogane are both undeniable powerhouse of the student council that don't want to confess to each other for fear of seeming weak. In the end they muster up the courage but must now face the trials of a commited relationship. The supporting characters and humor are amazing. I also ship ishimiko :)
YAKUZA
Yoshiro is the daughter of a Yakuza who is to be married off to the son of another Yakuza boss, Kirishima. Upon first impression her fiance is uninterested in her after formalities are exchanged. When he finds out she "sold her kidney" and could really fuck him up he becomes obsessed. The path to their romance puts targets on their backs and is full of violence and uncertainty.
