These paradise scans ai translations need to stop. Every time I open a new story and see their ugly ass ai generated banner I exit outta there so fast. It almost feels like a ragebait. Or even a sign that I'm better off learning korean myself so I can read and understand raws just to be able to avoid all this ai bullshittery
you know when its two people impossibly in love against the world. give me your recs ppl.
i dont care what the "obstacle" is: could be a war between their countries/kingdoms, wanted criminals on the run, or just society/family not accepting their son is gay.
give me long, and completed stories with angst and pain and suffering and misery BUT A HAPPY ENDING.
Wait, before y'all rec me, examples of what I'm talking about that I've already read:
Reunion
Max Mojave Case Files
Radio Storm
Incidentally dyed by spring's love
Darkness before the dawn
Bongchon bride
Murderer Llewellyn's candlelit dinner
oh and The Pawn's Revenge
Naruto. Doesn't have a happy ending. But it's long and completed. Lots of angst and misery, suffering and pain.
ahh thanks but i have already read it years ago.
Hah well that was expected. Try - form of sympathy
alright! thank you so much!
does that concept exist? any recs?
I did a quick search online (so may not be accurate). Unfortunately all I seem to see for dom/subverse is BL, and Guideverse only seem to be BL or straight. I’ve seen no GL
ah okay, tysm for looking it up!!
If you don’t mind reading novels, these are both guideverse GLs (you need to create an account in order to access the chapters, though):

Haven't found any subverse GLs tho, sorry!
Thank you! I'll go read them rn. You're an angel for this.
I've been obsessing over it like a madman the whole day. It's peakest BL I have read this year. I can't stopthinking about it and and analyzing every inch of every panel. I am mentally ill for both the protagonists. I want more. Somebody help me
real
Same, babe. Waiting for updates is killing me and I can't bring myself to let it marinate.
Fr (you have NO IDEA how much PEAK psycological bls i been running into this past month like its a sign or something (...but i cant prove it ...yet *proceeds to sit in a car with a suspicious look on my face* ))
my top 3 favourite tropes have got to be:
rivals/annoyances/frenemies to lovers. cause the one thing i love to see in a budding romance is Banter. biting sarcasm in conversations and silly competitions, and that forms the basis of solid chemistry. its so delicious, i eat it up like a starving animal every time. prime examples of this would be: you get me going, hell and high water, missing pepper case, perfect buddy, don't mix business with pleasure, playtime with hakdo etc.
second one being forbidden lovers/long separations/reunited lovers. they never asked to fall in love but they did. then time and circuumstances snatched them away from another. but fate brings them together again is actually such an excellent gourmet subgenre of romance. its addictive. im not a masochist, but the raw tender aching emotions that hit me like a truck when reading these stories is something that is so very precious to me. i never talk about liking this stuff irl, but classic works of this trope never fail to evoke things in my heart. examples: spring the color of love, reunion, deepest confession, hope you've been well, do you still like me, murderous llewelyn candle lit dinner, etc.
third has obviously got to be mutual obsession/match my freak/theyre both psychos/one of them is a psycho and the other one is okay with that. just a guy and that weirdo he likes. peak. absolute cinema. like theyre both mentally ill and not fit for society but are doing humanity a favour by being together cause nobody else can survive all that 4d mind chess. it drives me crazy in a really good way. examples are: pawn's revenge, checkmate, moritat, red mansion, the beast must die, radio storm, an unsettling scent, etc.
Honorable mention: one of my favourite themes is Zombie apocalypse BLs. And there are fortunately so many good ones out there I'm blessed. I recommend these to literally everyone: Legroom, believe my sign, dead man switch, let's meet alive and also Radio storm.
Just mentioned manhwas here cause if I start with the mangas we'll be here all night.
PEAK TASTE especially the first two omg are we the same person annoyances to lovers is possibly my favorite of all time. it can automatically make me care abt any couple idc. for the forbidden love trope i love it even more if theyve known each other forever like they were either childhood friends or literally fated for each other type shii.
as for other tropes i like:
- roommates to lovers (esp if its paired w annoyances to lovers lol)
Ngl, you’re 3/3 with me. I love those tropes so much, but it’s rare to see a series actually follow through with it well. Most I ever see it written well is in fanfics LOL. I’m gonna check out those manhwas, I wouldn’t mind more mangas either
We are now besties, youre peak too bro.
ohhhh do you have a few fanfic recommendations ? I'm all ears
I’ve read so much fanfics without ever saving them, I’m honestly blanking out when being asked for recommendations, so sorry
My best ones are from my imagination, but I can’t really put that into words
oh no problem, I was just curious but I'll find some too if I search a bit <3
to all the people in the comment sections on this website who say:
"sorry meant to like"
"accidentally disliked, actually i like it"
"clicked on dislike, but instead it is like"
I love you, yall are a pillar of the mangago society, bless your pure souls.
i wanna give u forehead kiss and tuck you good night. youre god's cutest soldiers fam, never change ♡
Same to people who comment "sorry meant to dislike" lol
wait why do they do that tho? /gen
cause i don’t get any type of notification if someone upvotes or downvotes my comment so i don’t see the problem with disliking by mistake, like i wouldn’t have noticed either way so
it's not about the notification, nobody receives those. but the up vs down votes ratio is visible and they just dont wanna be rude. they are polite pookies.
Ppl just don't want them to think they said something wrong because there's a downvote. Most ppl wouldn't notice but it's still a nice thing to do.
true but there are ppl that do check on the type of reception their comment gets so they really are just only doing it to clarify to the commenter about them agreeing/disagreeing with the comment posted lol
oh so that’s why you said they are cuties lmao i was so confused. well yeah now i see it too lol thanks for explaining btw
gimme stories with a western setting please! not old-timey like victorian era stuff, rather with more recent time periods. like retro 90s or 80s. europe, usa, doesn't matter.
Dead or alive
Oh shi never mind this is yaoi
