THE GHOSTS NOCTURNE
i hate the beginning cus the ml is a red flag BUT BRO TRUST HE BECOMES SO GREEN AND DOWNBAD UGHHH
its historical and supernatural ml is half ghost/demon half human) AND THE ART IS SO GORG
between the lines, release your persona, taming the tiger and kiss me if you can are also so peak
gonna say occult romantic comedy because it’s heavy on the slow burn and ongoing supernatural mystery plot itself
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/occult_romantic_comedy/
it’s about a supernatural detective named timothy (mc) working with jonathan, (ml) an a list actor on a paranormal case together that escalates far more then either expected
yes the novel is done too sort of (not fully translated but does exist)
gonna also point at happy together because it’s by ‘far’ the rare lily of the valley read at the moment in terms of a healthy and genuinely sweet relationship currently
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/happy_together_paradise_scans/
it’s about a former idol (who’s not subtly traumatized and very messed up due to a past very traumatic event that resulted in the past idol group he was in disbanding) meeting a famous artist who shares the same stage name as him, and takes him under his wing for a comeback
for it to be the authors first ever work? she deserves ‘all’ the praise and attention she’s been getting
gonna also say introducing my manager because man it’s complicated (especially if you never read the original novel) with another heavy slow burn and.. well.. the ml is kinda a high key punchable prick at first (personality wise) and may cause you to drop it early on
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/introducing_my_manager/
it’s about the mc who’s the ml’s manager, and the ml has.. alot of hidden feelings toward him is all I can say? that absolutely bite him later deservingly in his own stupid ass

omg and the thread never burned, incomplete combustion, happy twogether (super cute but the plot isnt that developed rn but in season two it’s gonna pick up) and in the house of the damned (or ghost mansion i think it’s called) it’s by the same author as even in your death, its only fifteen chapters buts it’s so interesting and ik you said ur tired of childhood friends but unsleep is so goated and the couple don’t even remember that they knew eo as kids
I’ve read some of these and liked them so ik I’ll like the others u recommended thank you doll
I’ve added them all to my list gonna occult romantic comedy cos I love a mystery bl thank u
Hey hey I was wondering where you read it? Maybe I’m crazy but I can’t find it (〜￣△￣)〜
one more recommendation is devil man, yeah devil man as a whole is ‘really’ dark (I’m genuinely warning you) and in every adaptation (og manga included) the ending is infamous for a very specific reason
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/devilman/
yes it’s technically a bl since ryo is always confirmed god knows how many times in every adaptation to be in canonical love with akira
you have the original manga, the 80’s series (superior) and the netflix adaptation that I didn’t like at all for variety of reasons such as akira getting a complete redesign that looks nothing like his original self lmao

(if I had to summarize akira and ryo’s relationship in 9 seconds, that clip is perfectly it)
you also have the other manga’s as well that really are just optional to read after the original since if I recall correctly they’re not canon
(but again, tw for rape and heavy violence as I said before devil man is a very dark series)
