    Who touched my tail is exactly like qwtfod, Heroic Death System had a really interesting plot and unique story however every chapter had a sad ending although the mc can use his point to rewind the arc,
    Holding Onto My Man is also like qwtfod (and this one had a very good plot)!!! I recommended it and the raw are also easy to read,, i thinks this come second after qwtfod though

    Since all of you BL experts are here, might as well as ask.

    Any Novels/Comics/Manga/Manhwa that fit the description of the below?
    • No strict restrictions on genre.
    • Manly MC was a waifu in previous lifetime but he doesn't remember anything about the previous past life. (Probably at most vague recurring dreams?)
    • MC starts the story as an Alpha male (so as to stack on and intensify the dark humor and awkwardness that comes along with the inevitable reveal).
    • Male-Love-Interest is totally aware about what happened in the previous lifetime and is determined to get "some pay-back" from MC in this life-time.
      • Could be a case that MC totally deserves what's coming: Either from previous lifetime viewpoint (Real betrayal against Male-LI) or current lifetime viewpoint (MC is a womanizer in this lifetime)
      • Or MC was totally misunderstood in previous lifetime.
      • Or Male-Love-Interest has gone the Dark Yandere Route.
    • MC meets Male-Love-Interest
      • Either via Failed-Stalking-turned-confrontation
      • Or Accidental-Reunion-turned-confrontation
      • Or via Devious-Plot-Trap (Male-Love-Interest offering MC a spiked drink)
    • Preferably some humor or awkward scenes leading to
      • or When MC recalls/reawakens his memories from the previous lifetime and it's becomes totally conflicted and complicated.
      • or MC totally can't recall the previous lifetime (because it was a perfectly clean wipe) and struggles to get out the sticky-situation in the most dramatic way ever.

    But found two KR manhwa which "barely satisfy" the above criteria.
    1) Ghost Love: https://mangadex.org/title/18843/ghost-love
    • Male MC has a harem but gets recurring? (probably twice or thrice?) dreams of some other guy "on top of him" (in the lewdest way possible) and waking up to check whether he's still a guy, while questioning whether he was female in his previous life.
    • Side Plotline not addressed because Season 2 of manhwa was never drawn.
    2) Lessa: https://mangadex.org/title/5917/lessa
    • It's all ambiguous because it's "complicated".
    • Male MC (Rano) was a waifu? in his previous lifetime and ended up doing the naughty and betraying Male-Ambiguously-Love-Interest?(Lessa) to his death? while being witnessed by Male-Ambiguously-Love-Rival(Ares)?
    • Male-Ambiguously-Love-Interest?(Lessa) first encounter/reunion with Male MC (Rano) results in Lessa face-stomping (literally) MC to an inch of his life before being interrupted.
    • Male-Ambiguously-Love-Rival(Ares)? becomes Yandere and literally plots out revenge scheme ala Bad-Bromance style on both MC and Lessa.
    • Was later revealed that Ares was given the Abusive-Silent-Treatment by Lessa for hundreds?(or thousands?) of years.

    Doesn't matter. But some readers pointed to me that there's a higher chance that BL genre novels will fit most of the criteria better.

    But of course, some authors decline to slap on the BL genre tag because it will adversely affect the readership.

    Mainly means MC was on bottom in previous lifetime but in this lifetime he's a complete manwhore (on top) cause he doesn't remember anything.

    Due to emotional trauma after reading 'Cold Sands' I've steered far away from books like the ones you're asking for, so this is the best I can offer.
