Really incredible!! I love how the characters ended the manga with realistic realizations of their dreams. Yes, they’ve all gone on amazing paths and are above and beyond the average, but they were still kids and in the development stages of realizing their great goals. It leaves the manga open-ended but not frustratingly so! Keito is a wonderful, memorable MC with her headstrong personality but also flaws that could be used as strengths as well. The romance was also awesome in this, I adore the

Really loving it so far! Light-hearted and funny, love how the mc Michiru is a side character butt she’s actually good friends with the heroine Mika. Her character is great as well as everyone in the manga, and i’m in looove with Cain he’s so sweet! I love the nii-chan, caring personality and i hope they shed that sibling dynamic soon as they go into romance~ great read 10/10!
Soooo sweet and lovely! I love them!! Adopted friendly guy x unemployed countryside returnee. Their relationship is so healthy and sweet, this was such a cute and peaceful read. I love all the characters, the confession scene and beginning of the relationship, their casual affection, and calm pacing of a countryside story. I love how Mitsuomi and Yamato help each other come out of their shells as they become more comfortable with each other and exploring their past and future. So much love, 11/1
Sequel to Restart wa Tadaima no Ato de. TOO SWEET!! I love this pair so much and this sequel was an awesome look into the struggles of a couple even in a really healthy relationship. I love that this is a peek into the lives of almost-30 year olds and their mature issues (settling down, etc) as a break from the high school stories. I adore Yamato and Mitsuomi and was so pleased to watch them air their frustrations and establish great open communication. Characters are all great, i love the accep
Apparently my type is uwu demon kings shdhsnns so lovely! I love the headstrong hero uke Ike and the softhearted seme Noah, they’re great and i can’t wait for more ~~
UTD ch4: Maou Noah is soo sweet and i just love how accepting they are of each other! Love how Ike supports Noah too and works hard to do som they mutually support each other it’s great this is a very lovely read 10/10
OMG I LOVED EVERY SECOND!! Arashi was so refreshingly candid (like wow no holds barred) even if there was that nice plot twist lie. Such a good considerate seme! And Miharu-sensei was so sweet too ugh i wanna pat pat pat him. Look at this gorgeous relationship with amazing communication. I love how they always talk out their feelings even if it takes a while to do so, and awkwardly at that. The consideration when Arashi asked about their positions/roles wow! And the way they look at each other w
Revisiting this, i love it so much! A teacher x student relationship done right. I often get uncomfortable with age-gap/forbidden relationships but this is just comfy and sweet and nice. I love how they showed affection for each other but still knew their boundaries and waited til they were both comfortable. Natori-sensei and Kaname are both so sweet to each other, love it! 10/10

AMAZING. I don’t have enough words, this is definitely the best work I’ve read in a long time. I didn’t have a choice but to binge it. It was funny and endearing, then wonderfully heartbreaking. The resolution of the last few chapters had me legit doing heaving sobs, I haven’t cried like this in a while and it feels so good. It starts out as a lighthearted supernatural slice of life introducing a great cast of characters and an adorably awkward romace, but it quickly prove

this is an amazing list thanks fr
Reply to prev comment about Ao no Flag:
I totally agree with the point you made, but I just wanted to say I originally made this list for my personal use only hence why it’s not super neat and informative for other readers. I did originally also make this list for good semes who by my definition were pleasant to read about and generally didn’t engage in dub/noncon behavior, but that branched out to MLs in yaoi, shounen ai, and shoujo/josei as well. I actively look for manga where both partners in the relationship are equal without any weird power dynamics, which is why I put Ao no Flag hoping to say it was the opposite of imposing heteronormative views as it made it seem to you! I changed the title a bit to semes/MLs for more accurate generalization but won’t be going through the entire list since I still don’t plan on catering to other readers and getting more views, instead focusing on archiving my past reads. I never mentioned anything about the characters’ sexual lives and instead wanted to commemorate how lovely they were to each other in this reading list.
Hope this clears up any misunderstandings on my attention for future viewers of this list! Again, sorry it’s not very neat but I will continue to make all of my lists for my eyes only and am just happy to see anyone else enjoying some good manga you may find here ^^
I think this list could use some revising, I see that you put Ao no Flag in the list which doesn’t make sense to me because there is no sexual content to indicate who tops and bottoms. You’re kind of just assuming there’s a seme-uke dynamic because of their characters and size difference which is a bit heteronormative. They might be a vers couple for all we know
What a well compiled list, some of my faves were here
Btw, what does rr mean in your list?
RR = Role Reversal, basically featuring more dominant women and submissive men in some way or BL couples without heteronormative roles! Thanks for your sweet comment as well!

Oh sorry i just saw that you made this list for yourself please ignore my precious comment
This is a really nice but if it doesnt bother you could you do a separate list for anything that aient bl or change the title because its a tiny bit missleading since on some page there are only shojo manga, beside that thanks a lot for the efforts you put in this list
Not a problem at all, thanks for your constructive criticism! Just changed the title to SEMES/MLs to account for the shoujo manga, I’m too lazy to make a separate list and edit this one and and that’s partly why I make the lists in the first place, so it’s easier to reread stuff I don’t wanna write new reviews for;;; sorry and thanks for understanding!
Omg, love this list with those comments on it. Thank you so much!!!
Aw thank you!! Like all my other lists I made these completely for myself with my ranty thoughts so I know in the future why I like/dislike a series so much (bc I always forget and it frustrates me lol) glad other people can benefit too somehow!
