Favorite Yaoi Manga

I am by no means the biggest fan of tragedies. But I found myself seeking out good ones on more than one occasion and I'll say its probably because its cathartic. I'm not someone who really indulges in the feelings the tragedies bring out when you're reading, or watching them. So for me its a way to acknowledge those feelings which I otherwise don'......   reply

I don't really enjoy how it ends at a very sad tragedy.... But I read it because it's interesting to see how the characters progress and feel some of the emotions that they feel. It's also kind of refreshing to see a bad ending amidst the multiple cliche filled stories that end in such a great ending. I dunno, maybe it's just me but I like the char......   reply

I don't read tragedy often and neither do I seek it everytime I am trying to find some manga to read but sometimes I do read them and I have liked them cause they sorta reflect how life isn't something perfect and will not always go the way you wanted it to.Yea it might not be easy to get over the deaths and characters going through hard time but a......   reply

I've gotten hooked on the melancholic feeling from reading tragedy. Love tragedies, more specifically. I'm guessing its an emotion born from my own intense desire to find love and a soulmate. The pain i get in my heart when i read love tragedies (especially the ones where the protagonist gets betrayed by their love) is an emotion that I feel is rel......   reply

reposting here cuz im dumb. for me, i think i started liking traged much much more when i feel the emotions better with that pang especially when i was undergoing such depressing phase. it's like u're depressed but then u cant feel? you lack interest in anything and then u want to feel something strong and when you reas angst stories, the manifes......   reply

I feel like I have to keep up appearances in the real world and act strong or stable all the time, but truth to be told I am very emotional and turbulent, and I love getting lost in a world of utter despair to remind myself every once in a while that I'm not an emotionless vampire, and I can shed a tear here and there in the safety of my home. Trag......   1 reply

I don't seek tragedies per say but I enjoy slice of life mangas a lot. Not necessarily when a lot of people die and it becomes overwhelming but a death or two in a story creates a bittersweet, "real" ending that actually makes me feel. I hate emotions but in real life I'm an objective logical person who rarely lets things get to them and sometimes ......   1 reply

As a person who absolutley craves stories that deal with tragedy and difficult themes, I feel like I can answer this question for you! I understand why some people would avoid reading tragic stories. As an emotional person myself, I whole heartedly can sympathise with the desire to steer clear from things that leave you feeling torn or broken. Ive ......   2 reply

Because so-called happy endings can be far more depressing of course. Imagine a child growing up and watching romantic movies or reading romantic books where the main character is bullied by the other main character while the supporting characters always take the side of the bully. Now imagine that child wishing that the two would not end up togeth......   1 reply

I don't seek them out per se, but I do enjoy them...if enjoy is the right word. Not because I like tragic things but because I like to be emotionally ripped apart. Crying is therapeutic for me. Bittersweet endings are good for that too. They make you feel so shitty and so, like, WHY??? Exasperated? Frustrated? The last tragic thing I really got in......   reply
