BL with manly couples

☆ 4.5/5

TW: suicide attempt, depression, underage (17x20), abusive family, violence, bullying, homophobia, sexual harassment (not between MCs), murder

+ strangers to friends to lovers
+ growing up tgt
+ affectionate couple
+ reversible couple

Another adaptation of a great slice-of-life / coming-of-age novel by WuZhe! The pacing of the manhua can be a bit disorienting but overall the story is great. I want to keep reading it forever.

[PG, slice or life, hurt/comfort, found family]

TW: abuse, violence, bullying, ableism

The original novel is honest to god one of the greatest coming of age works i've ever read. It's complex and heart-wrenching, but also funny, tender, and so hopeful. I can't describe how much love i have for these characters, and seeing them in manhua form is totally an amazing experience. Read the novel: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/saye/

4.5/5

[PG, drama, rom-com, slice of life]

TW: homophobia, emotionally abusive family, anxiety disorder, panic attack, age gap

+ strangers to friends to lovers
+ funny
+ likeable MCs

A bear-like softie farmer and a prince-like city guy met in the countryside. A heartwarming story about acknowledging the bad and the good in your life, and having the courage to choose what's best. Also, both of the MCs belong in my pocket!
