    i'm looking for
    +; bl mangas,
    +; bl manhwas
    +; from bl novel adapted to mangas
    +; from bl novel adapted to webtoons

    where it centralized from;
    — good chemistry, sparks, sexual tension
    — good character development
    — non feminine, non tsundere, one dimensional or stockholm syndrome uke
    — shounen ai (or if it can't be helped no plotless smut where every chapters they have smegs)
    — interesting, convincing plot (not clichè, no slice of life, no university, no police/detective/gangster trope, no concubine or sex worker trope, no arranged marriage trope, no omegaverse, no horror)
    — yes to sanpaku eyes ml, playful or teasing ml, condescending ml but not to the point he hurts the mc or anyone around him, i only accept if it's a bl with actual psychological tag or ml have a diagnosed mental illness (same for mc)
    — non toxic ml, non rude/cold ml, realistic and calculative ml
    — i'm open for bl subtext/bromance outside of bl category, any genres except slice of life and horror (can be josei, shoujo, shounen or action-fantasy tag)

    Have you read ghosts knows what I’ve experienced? Same author as Earth is Online. Has supernatural elements, but I dont think it counts as horror.

    erm, the arranged marriage part really isn’t prominent and I even forgot all about that

    My little poplar is ok, but the ml is a bit rude in the early parts of the story because of the mc’s attitude (gets fixed later on)

    Jellyfish is also ok, but I haven’t finished reading it.

    Also The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path
