Non-Cliché Personalities/Dynamics

Bored of alpha male seme x shy+petite uke dynamics? Or the tiny slutty uke x serious big guy seme dynamics? Or any kinda dynamics that made you roll your eyes and go, "ugh i've seen this a hundred times before?" Bored of predictable, clichéd seme/uke looks and personalities? Here is the list for you!

WARNING The descriptions of works in this list may contain spoilers. I try to only explain the dynamics between the couple but it can get a bit spoilery so watch out for that!

Not really unusual ig but I Iike how the uke is actually a really soft n sweet guy but whenever he's around the seme he got so shy + panics so hard that he turns menacing. I wouldn't describe him as a tsundere though, cuz everytime he's being unintentionally harsh to the seme he regrets it it immediately. Both the seme and uke is strong so there's that too. Seme looks like your usual delinquent guy with black leather jacket at first glance but he's really soft n nice

I like how the seme appears like your usual confident, nonchalant popular guy but actually has a fragile side to him. He has that feminine look too, so that's refreshing. The uke appears stoic but actually really caring. He can be bold while staying cute, and he had a strong side to him too (he carried the seme once). They're not complete opposites, but they compliment each other perfectly

Younger seme and senpai uke.
The uke is like the top student or smth and the seme ask to be tutored by him, but the dynamics is totally refreshing. First of all the top-student is not a stuck up studious guy but also had a rebellious streak to him. Second of all despite being stupid to the point of needing tutoring, the seme is really kind and polite as a kouhai, not rude. They're perfect for each other your honor

at first glance the uke is just your usual intimidating yankee who's very blunt and kinda stupid. but the moment he met the seme he instantly falls in love bcoz the seme treat him gently. (anyway i love the fact that they don't have sex immediately after 1st meeting. the uke actually took the time to try getting closer to the seme). the uke is BUFF CUTE AND SPOILED for affection and the seme is a gentle person who loves giving the uke affections

seme: just a really chill guy, idk. member of the student council. has a weird taste, for example he totally adore this one ugly cat at their school but didn't want to date the school beauty pageant winner
uke: has a really scary face and glares a lot. strong and ripped. borderline delinquent but never started fights, people started fights w/ him instead cuz he always looks like he wants to start fights. has a lot of unexpected sides

they're both strong!!
seme: alpha, son of yakuza group leader. essentially a delinquent, but he's rather cool+calm and not brash. looks disinterested in anything and everything but he gets really soft with the uke
uke: a yankee omega. also a delinquent who looks menacing but he likes cute things like teddy bears. he wears his heart on his sleeves and cries easily when he's in love

Magical boy uke! He's the hero of his own story and I love him for that (even tho he's kinda gullible lol). He's suuper cute especially his puppy eyes but he also got a buff body so he doesn't look girly.
The seme is hmm idk he's kinda manipulative. In terms of look he does have a softer image to him.

REVERSIBLE COUPLE!!
the black haired guy is the older one, a phd student who's pretty chill about everything. at night he did cross-dressing at a bar too, lol. falls in love easily. too nice but not the type of nice you can easily trample on
the orange haired guy is younger. also chill about everything. he does what he wants, is straightforward, pretty bold but kinda soft too.
actually they both have their own soft/cute sides. the progress of their relationship doesn't feel forced

Another one from Sagold on this list so I guess I just absolutely vibe with their uke characters

Uke is a buff guy with darker skin and like he's generally manly but he's also so sweet and kinda gullible? and he cries so easily he's so cuteeee
Seme has a girlier look to him but super horny and bold and possessive lol

They're both pretty manly in my opinion. The top-bottom is kinda ambiguous, but it's heavily leaning on the pink-haired guy as seme and black haired guy as uke. The uke is a jerk, idk he's like that one guy who act like a jerk to the one he likes. The seme is an ordinary nice guy who's honestly tired of the uke's bullshit lol. The seme also looks paler and kinda more fragile than the uke, but emotionally, the uke is VERY fragile
