recommendation

this one is wild since it’s technically a porn anime (8 episodes, and the very recent live adaptation, I’m warning you the anime is uh.. pretty graphic lmao but then again the manga is too)

the manga itself is still ongoing but I really like it because the plot is low-key fun once you get past how much they fuck like rabbits

aka plot wise mc is a narcissist who can’t find love despite using dating apps among other things while thinking of himself as high above everyone else at his work (while being admired by everyone there naturally) until he meets the ml who he slowly falls for as they keep sleeping together despite his own denial (again, he’s a narc) and the ml making him promise to not fall for him

stranger by the shore is ‘much’ more chill thank god and really sweet despite the angst, I absolutely recommend the movie adapation to it after the manga

one more is mignon, it’s a short 13 episode series that’s about a wrestler who works in an illegal wrestling arena after losing his own parents and a mysterious doctor he meets that I’m not spoiling any father since the animation itself is gorgeous and the final episode alongside the post credit scene is absolutely chefs kiss
