Something about side couples just hits me harder. Maybe it’s The way I have to scrounge the text for crumbs of their interactions gets me invested.
Also could be a non BL series with an mxm side couple that also goes crazy
simple, every side couple ever rlly

The premise is that the villainess shares a body with a girl who isekai-ed into her world. The girl played/read the series the villainess is from and loved the villainess's character. When the girl isekais into the world she does not know the villainess is still in her body watching her every move. The girl does her best to ensure that the villainess does not meet the same unfair fate she watched by being kind and noble, but is nevertheless faced with betrayal and unfairness. The miscarriage of justice causes the girl to succumb to sadness and retreat within herself, causing the villainess to front in their body once more. The villainess, having witnessed the girls purity and kindness and love for her character has become a fan of the girl and is enraged that she has been hurt and vows to take revenge for her. Despite never having talked directly to one another, the girl and the villainess seem to have an almost romantic bond. I really enjoyed it but did not catalogue it, so I would appreciate any help finding it.
wow you're fast!!! Thank you that's the manga :D
This is far from my favorite AM work but just like in all their other work the female characters all have their own inner worlds and agency and don't feel like they exist just to pad the setting for the male characters. I really appreciate this part of AM's work but I wish this was the standard and not the exception in BL
and notice how they aren't major characters either. it's possible to write characters to react like human beings without them having a central character arc I know it's crazy
