This is so cute it's not complete, right? The last chapter is so abrupt so there's likely more of the extras.

Anyone have recommendations for something similar? Like this one too: https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/december/

    If you like December you should check out SamK’s other works- Half of Me, Payback, and Regas. Like December though, they all have some darker themes running through them. Regas is the ā€œsoftest/fluffiest,ā€ Half of Me is very very slow burn on the romance but has the funniest moments imo, and Payback is ranked my top BL of all time. Similar to this, in terms of a light hearted comedy, I’d recommend Guild Member Next Door (sometimes listed as Virtual Strangers). It’s the funniest BL I’ve ever read.

    To add, if you want an Omegaverse like December that has a sort of melancholic undertone, unpleasant circumstances but very sweet relationship between the couple, then I’d recommend Whispers Through The Willows. The omegas kind of look similar too. But I can’t find it here, only on Bato. And finally, if you’re after a concept similar to this one, as in ML takes in a pet that turns out to be MC, then maybe try ā€œNot A Peep.ā€ (Seems popular but personally I dropped it cause art/bottom wasn’t my style and I didn’t find the story that engaging.) And heck, you know what, here’s some random recs off the top of my head of non toxic, GREAT plot, GREAT art, non slice of life BLs: (first 3 are kinda like shounen ai for first seasons but) The Hunter Wants To Live Quietly, Honbul, Mission: Save The Hunter, Dreaming of The Dokkaebi (SMUT).

    There’s nothing soft or fluffy about the ML in Regas (ļæ£āˆ‡ļæ£") he just hides it better when he’s a child. I read the whole novel. I’ve hesitated about Payback because it seems a bit dark, and I’ve read the other stories by that author/artist. I’ll check out the guild one, thanks.

    I finished Guild member next door to the latest chapter, it was great! (āŒ’ā–½āŒ’) I’ll check out the other recommendations too, thank you!

    The manhwa for regas is full of comedic relief moments, more so than any other, one of its strong themes is of reconnecting/being in nature (fluffy), and Able is the most innocent/fluffiest MC out there. So that’s why I called it the fluffiest out of the list. A lot of the darker stuff from the novel has been cut btw (A LOT) and it’s not like ML is toxic/horrible TOWARDS mc, he just likes slashing down his enemies lol. Payback is only dark in so far as it deals with themes of depression, grief, and suicidal ideation, but other than that, all the bad stuff happens off screen (and it doesn’t happen directly to MC or ML, but surrounding characters). It’s very much a human emotion story, so it’s quite moving but it’s my fave of all time
