i just recommended this to someone on here, so i thought i should give it a shout out in separate post.

it’s perfect. the romance is romancing. also, it’s the type of manga that gives you a deeper knowledge on a topic, in this case it’s about kabuki, which is super interesting. i really need to buy a physical copy asap.
that’s all, bye

i know this description is broad af, but pls, i can’t find it. i don’t remember the name. but i want to read it so bad. i remember starting it a while ago so i don’t remember shit. i didn’t save it nor continue reading it.
it was a korean bl, probably drama even, but idk abt that. i remember this scene, it must have been in the very beginning. mc goes on the street at night and notices someone on the staircase across the street (that must’ve been the ml) in the dark. i think he takes a picture or something, but he didn’t intend to take the picture of the person, and he worries the person will think he took the picture of them. or SOMETHING LIKE THAT. honestly i have a bad memory, even this might not be accurate. but the staircase scene was pretty memorable, idk.
pls tell me i'm not tripping. thanks

any recs similar to these? i'm expanding my collection lol. thanks! <3

have you read tu quoque? https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/tu_quoque/ i love that one too (it's SO cute i got cavities just from reading that lmfao)

kms i remember seeing a post on here this week recommending a bl manga with a very unique artstyle (the post basically said something like “you guys should read this it’s great” & link), idk what it was abt, idk if it was yaoi or shounen ai, but ig it was chinese/korean (idk abt that either). i wanted to save it but i forgot (idk lol) and now i can’t find it. i went like 3 days back on this page but the post is nowhere, maybe i just missed it. there aren’t many post recommending, it’s more about asking for recs, so ig it's not that impossible. if it was you, who recommended something, pls tell me what it was - i'm losing it lol.

could it be this? https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/sangyang_the_wanderer/

so i have read “the pawn's revenge” yesterday and i still keep thinking about it, but!
i really f*cking (am i allowed to swear here? lol) enjoyed the first 2 seasons of it, like, oh my god, i love it. but then the 3d season happened.
the first two seasons have that nostalgic webtoon artstyle (idk how to explain it ), are genuinely really well written, the dialogues are smart and the plot twists are great, ALSO, the sex/romantic scenes here are super sensual and sexy, what the hell.
if i were to compare all of this to the 3d season, i would say the newest season is just… not as good, i would even say it’s mediocre, although that’s just my opinion, idk.
all of this being said, do you have any recs where the main couples' dynamic is similar to the first two seasons of this bl?

looks like im not alone here the 3rd season isnt like bad or shitty, but compared to the first 2 seasons its really underwhelming cause honestly as you said, the story was really intriguing and put togheter well but s3 just lacks something but i cant really put my finger on whats missing from it
hopefully its just a phase LMAO and it will come back to its original glory in s4

yeah in general it’s not bad, but it’s… alright. not awesome either. the first two seasons just hit different!!!! ugh. and exactly as you said, it lacks something, but it has potential.
idk if i will wait for the season 4 tbh (when it even drops? this year? next year?) bcs my brain kinda decided that the story ended with season 2.

yeah i kinda wanted to drop it after reading the first chapter of season 3 (the sudden change was such a jumpscare ) but i forced myself into finish it and… idk. at least i'm satisfied with first two seasons and the story kinda ends there for me. i will be re-reading those.
and thanks for recs! i will check it out
i’ve finally read wet sand today. screaming throwing up rn, ts will probably ruin me. but anyways.
do you guys know of anything similar to that or to shutline? this is an emergency.
thanks!

WET SAND MENTIONED SUA8ABDJSIAHWN72829O TJ IS ENDGAME TJ IS ENDGAME TJ IS ENDGAME TJ IS ENDGAME
um. anyway. im glad u liked it oml unfortunately nothing can come even remotely close to it </3
oh wait try under the green light if u haven't
i was afraid that might be the case like oh my god. i will go crazy before the new chapter drops. I HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS TORN UP ABT A LOVE TRIANGLE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. NEVER.
art - immaculate. story - heavy, amazing. characters - sexy. smut - hot.
what more could i ask for fr…
waitttttt i remember i wanted to read that too! thanks!
(tw for rape under the influence of drugs later in the story though)
U SHPULD NOT BE TORN UP ABOUT THE LOVE TRIANGLE. THERE IS ONLY ONE RIGHT ANSWER (im kidding jo stans please dont kill me)
i will keep that in mind thankss
but seriously i love jo with my whole heart (the world needs more yearners like him tbh) but ian and tj just… were meant to be… ts is so heartbreaking i can’t even
def Under the Green Light and i also recommend Flashlight if you haven't read it
the plot isn't SUPER similar to shutline or wet sand (from what ik) but the vibes and art match so well I think you'd love it!
Link to Flashlight:
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/flashlight/
thank you sm!!! i remember seeing it on here but i’ve never read it… better late than never
is TJ endgame? or just speculation? I heard that s3 will answer that question
yeah we'll know by mid s3 (he probably isn't though )
