I LOVE me some stories with the most horrific creatures I have ever seen. Angst? The more the better. I find more interest in stories that will put me on an emotional rollercoaster than fluff, or stories with amazingly unique concepts.
I will not however, read straight up torture porn where the mc constantly suffers— that’s boring af. No, I want them to be happy so when something terrible happens, it hurts even more. I draw the line at rape (unless it’s genuinely important to the plot and isn’t romanticized), but everything else is fair game.
I… don’t read a lot of gore for some reason
Oh and if there’s a story that may have some disturbing elements that cause readers to drop it early on, I’ll probably read it as long as the concept or characters is interesting enough. Bring it on
Okay, so I want some yaoi recommendations where the dynamic between the mc and ml is two broken souls finding solace in each other. Both have their own demons, and, surprisingly enough, this leads to them healing each other (negative times negative makes a positive)
Some examples of yaoi like this that I’ve read are Dreaming of the Dokkaebi and Kang-Ilwoo and I
have you read bad friend?
I want a story with two main characters that have a similar dynamic with Nam Woori and Subin from The Fundamental law. The other character doesn’t have to be as dumb or neurodivergent as Woori, I just want a dynamic where person A consistently pesters person B in order to get close to them, while person B doesn’t give a fuck (though they slowly warm up to Person A over time)
So guys, the stories I’ve been reading lately are either depressing or horrifying. “Hmm… This story looks nice!” It had cannibalism in it. “Oh… Then what about this story?” The ml is suicidal and the mc was abused as a child. Don’t get me wrong, I still LOVE angst stories but I need a break before I become depresso espresso.
Okay now to the point. I want some fluff recs. Preferably bl but any works. I know that “fluff recs” is a very broad thing to ask for, so I want fluff with good or better plot and/or friends to lovers. SPECIFICALLY the characters slowly become friends then slowly become lovers. Or the characters start off as friends and stay as friends for a decent chunk of chapters.
Wait until this bug go down and then ill give you the link
All About Lust
Please read this guys this is a hidden gem!!! No angst, just fluff and literally one of the best writing in history. BL authors take notes

can u give me the names of the black flag stories..... asking for a friend
They aren’t really black flag stories but sure
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/the_unjust/ The one with cannibalism. The art is really good and I LOVE the chibis. This story could be amazing in the future.
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/got_dropped_into_a_ghost_story_still_gotta_work_novel/ Not a romance but severed heads. It’s rather spooky
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/yang_il_woo_and_i/ Abused Mc, suicidal ml. I love them so dearly but they’re tangled up in a lot of bad stuff rn
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/false_paradise/ Humans are pets (they aren’t necessarily treated badly or anything). It’s really interesting seeing how the different humans react to the situation (no romance)
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/the_forgotten_field/ Absolutely gut wrenching. I love how there’s no ‘good’ or ‘bad’ characters in this. They’re all somewhere in between
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/the_mountain_branches_dream_of_goblins/ Less depressing and I love seeing the Mc and ml’s growth.
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/red_string_quests/ Very fluffy and silly at first till it STABS YOU IN THE HEART and TWISTS the knife.
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/love_sick_dog/ Mc was trapped in a toxic relationship and ml suffers from severe lethargy
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/homeless/ I love love LOVE this story dearly. Just reread it and sobbed (no romance but bromance)
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sweet_home/ People get turned into horrifying monsters
Is Hazeshift on this site under a different title
nah its not on here. why not just read it on webtoon? its free there.
I honestly did NOT know it was on webtoon till I searched it up
My friend just told me to read it without context
Firstly, let me start this off with the fact that it may not be on this site.
MC reincarnates into this fantasy world where everyone considers him a god. He has black hair and yellow(?) eyes. The thing about MC (I feel bad for saying this) is that he’s lwk a total slut (IM SORRY BUT THIS EXACTLY WHAT HE IS) and uses this power to get men to have sex with him. Also this story isn’t just pure smut, I’m there for the plot.
Anyhow, it’s a harem with an endgame ml, but before we get to him, let’s talk about this fucking rapist. I forgot his name, but the BATO comments kept calling him Verizon. Anyways, he rapes the Mc. Also the Mc has a pretty interesting way of coping with this but I don’t feel like getting into that. Verizon has white or LIGHT LIGHT blonde hair and yellow eyes I think.
The endgame ml is this long red-haired character who is the emperor(?) and is a skeptic and doesn’t fully believe in religion. I forgot everything else about him though…
From where I last left off, the Mc, along with Verizon and a few others, went to this distant neighboring nation. It definitely takes inspiration from African clothing (though I’m unaware of the exact time period) but I don’t remember much about the place itself.
One last thing, this story KIND OF reminds me of The Snake That Swallowed the Pomegranate because of its religious themes.
This is How to be the chosen one!

THANK YOU SO MUCH OH MY GOD IM GONNA REREAD TS
THANK YOUUUUU
Okay so I don’t know exactly how to describe it, but I want to read more stories like Sahan ( https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sahan/) and Love Sick Dog ( https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/love_sick_dog/) where the narrative (kind of) poetically describes the characters thoughts? Like it feels like you’re reading a poem because of how… mystifying it feels.
Oh and this story can be ANY genre except for manga (yes I know manga isn’t a genre). I REQUIRE colors and big panels (if you get what I mean). If the manga is REALLY good, I’ll read it tho.
In exchange for your recs, I’ll give you two of my own. Let’s say you recommend 1 story, so I’ll give you 2. If you recommend 5 stories, I’ll give you 10.
if u like lovesick dog you will love ouroboros too from the same author it’s on heavier side tho since the mc is a r4pe victim and the whole story is basically about the aftermaths of it and how he struggles
also spring, the color of love, love for sale(this might just be me since i relate HARD to it), love in orbit, lucky paradise(this might also just be me ), paljae, a twisted fate, yang ilwoo and i, radio storm, the end of the world with you, perle and there’s sm i can’t rmb rn tell me if uve read these tho
yang ilwoo and i is such a lovely story, the narration is fantastic
I was reading this and lowkey took a break once I realized who was the top
I’ll probably come back to in a… little bit (a few months lowkey)
Read Paljae, some of love in orbit
I’m way too lazy to input all of these into the search bar… I also don’t really like toxic couples. I can WITHSTAND them if it isn’t that bad, but it’s hard to deal with
Lately I’ve had a bit of a craving for tops that are expressive during smut, but I’m fine with anything that’s between yellow to green flag. In return for your recs, I’ll give you some of my own ^^
The hounds of sisyphus for sure, the faces the top makes are insane LOL
Try third ending, define the relationship and red thread quest
Sigh… I read all three :(
Still, you get three recs in return!
Was looking for recs and then I realized that 3 was too little… (The tops here aren’t necessarily expressive, these are just some stories I REALLY like)

I’m throwing this one at you because I love the mc so much lmao
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/yatara_yarashii_fukami_kun/
to summarize the still ongoing plot, mc works in an office where he’s openly admired by his co workers, who’re all unaware he’s actually a narcissist who thinks very highly of himself and secretly often rates people
his catch is that he can’t really find love despite being on dating apps, hook ups etc
atleast until he meets the ml who’s his polar opposite and one of his own co workers
they go on a business trip together and sleep together and make a deal that if mc doesn’t fall for him they can keep sleeping together
of course we all know that doesn’t go to plan, but I’m gonna be honest the anime adaptation is basically just the first 8 chapters of the manga animated, but I can’t recall if the live action adaptation is even out yet since it’s brand new
That sounds interesting, but I don’t really read manga unfortunately… I’ll still try it out tho
thanks!
I genuinely don’t know how to post in that little experience thing and I have something to share with the class☹
You mean the "people are sharing things section"? You click on "more" then at the bottom you have a search bar for "things" but most people just put everything on the "question" one
If you click on a "thing" you can post from there as either a question or an experience
Ohhhh alr
Okay, I’ve had a craving for a good Friends to Lovers ever since Wild Beast Warning and I need to fill this hole in my heart.
TLDR: I’m looking for a good friends to lovers manhwa
