No prob! They are all either complete or if they are on going the first season is complete so there's a nice stopping point! Don't forgot if you read any of them let me knowww. Cheers

My first comment is down there too lolol, order from down to up

If I may, if you ever want to step out of your comfort zone, I can also recommend:
Walk on Water
Modern - Plot and Romance driven - Yaoi
> Ed is a bodyguard strapping for cash, he ends up delving into the world of pornography where he meets the enigmatic owner and top actor of the company Glenn McQueen <
One of the BL classics, if you want to complete your bingo card lol, I would put this in the drama category so you know the drill, prepare for the angst, but it’s not caused by the love interest and there’s only a scumbag friend, so I think this one can be palatable for you. There’s a reason it’s popular, the atmosphere is immaculate, the sex scenes are well-constructed and overall I just had a really good time reading it. So if you ever want to dip your toes into something less fluffy and more mature, this may be the pick for you
Paljae
Historical and Supernatural - Plot driven - Shounen-ai
> Moon-Ryeong, a powerful immortal taoist, saves the life of an emotionless non-human boy, Paljae, and while living and traveling together taking on supernatural cases, the blank past that they could not remember slowly begins to unfold <
I found this comic recently and I consider it a gem, I went into it blind, and maybe that’s the best way to go into it? So if you want to only stick with my synopsis I totally recommend doing that. Now, I don’t believe you like the “obsession” genre, but if you were to like one, Paljae might be the one, because while Paljae is obsessed with his saviour, this is nicely woven into the plot and along with the rich world, interesting and strong plot, autonomous protagonist, beautiful art and no abuse, makes me think you may like this. Although I would recommend reading other comics first then getting to this one, sort of leaving the best for last, building up to it, etc
|
So, I recommend BJ Alex… jk lol, okay! I have only included ones I have either read in full or a good chunk of it, and rather recently for most so it’s fresher on my memory, in order to assure it fits your preferences. I also only included standouts, so I truly recommend reading these. Also also! I think I picked a good variety so you have a bit of everything to choose from, although I recommend all of them. Anyway lol! I have analysed what you said, here are my picks for you:
I Became the Lousy Side Top
Isekai - Plot driven - Shounen-ai
> Seo Jaewoo finds himself in a BL novel as the bully of the protagonist Yoo Hyeonjin with the fate of dying at the end by the hands of Hyeonjin’s crazy love interest, in order to change his outcome, he decides to get on Hyeonjin’s good graces, unknowingly conquering his heart and changing the course of the novel <
They are both super nice, my baby Hyeonjin goes through a lot :( so it’s great seeing our protagonist help him and them enjoying each other’s company, Jaewoo makes me want to cook with the amount of the seemingly delicious foods he makes lol, and we see Hyeonjin’s little brothers which are super cute. Wholesome but not without twists and turns story!
I Can See Your Stats!
Fantasy - Plot driven - Shounen-ai
> Wizard Erya inherits the kingdom of Solath and must do everything in his power to insure it’s well being, including using his novel power of seeing everybody’s statistics and a skillful mysterious stranger named Yanu <
So Yanu is a bit of a questionable guy lol in terms of his morals, and this is all about Eyra dealing with him and solving the kingdom’s problems, Eyra is smart, proactive and powerful on his own, I’m very into the plot and their romance, it develops organically and although it’s shounen-ai, there are some intimate moments. If you want to delve into BL fantasy, with gorgeous art to boot, I think this is a very good pick!
Killer Crush
Modern - Romance and Plot driven - Shounen-ai
> Our protagonist, Joo Taeman, is a hit man (and a well done one, might I add), and for the first time in his life someone catches his eye, not just anyone though, it’s huge national celebrity Kang Dahyeok, who also gets smitten by him but rather for different reasons, although, as the two start to get closer, both have to make amends with the blossoming feelings in their hearts <
This is rather funny I laughed quite a few times, so here you have an unique couple dealing with ordinary relationship hoops they have to jump but also external forces given their backgrounds, this juxtaposition works really well and along with a solid plot and couple’s development, I was invested in seeing what happens next!
Mr. 100% Perfect
Modern - Romance driven - Yaoi
> Woo-in dates the perfect Suk-yun, handsome, slim and rich, he’s seemingly flawless, which on one hand, got Woo-in in love in the first place, but on the other, got him to feel sidetracked by Suk-yun which caused him to break up with him, in order to get over his breakup, he starts working in a cleaning company, only to work on the trash-filled mess of a house belonging to Suk-yun <
Doesn’t the plot makes you want to read it or what lol?! This is very well made and I remember loving Suk-yun lol, cute story and this time with spice because this one is yaoi lol! This is the one I read less of, meaning I didn’t read too further into it, but as far as I know only Suk-yun’s brother is kinda trashy and gets in the way at least initially, I don’t believe is a love triangle though!
Runaway Hit
Modern - Romance driven - Yaoi
> Seohyun is a failing fashion designer on the brink of irrelevance when the top model Hyowon Lee agrees to work with him, given their opposite personalities Seohyun doesn’t think he’s the most suitable to model his work, although as they spend time together Hyowon starts to grow on him <
Another yaoi! It was really nice seeing their relationship develop and I was rooting for Seohyun’s career to succeed, this is rather hotttt too lol, what more can I say, really? It’s just a well-rounded comic!
Here you go, fully colored, as cute as my preferences can be lol! You can tell what I like too since these are all plot-heavy and a bit dramatic lol, but I hope you like them! If you read any of them please let me know too! I would love to hear your thoughts and see if I got it right lol
|
Shit I tend to like the dark ones lolol, or intense ones, I see you read quite a few actually but you didn't rate them so I don't know if you liked them or not lol! Well, what do you like though? Does it have to be shounen-ai or can it be yaoi? Does it have to be modern or can it be historical? What about if it's supernatural? Any couple's dynamics or tropes you like? Does it have to be manhwa or can it be manhua? You can be specific I have read a lot
|
Bahahaha honestly, if it's on going I just learned to let it go lol, also having the habit of only picking up complete comics helps. Anyway, new to BL? :3
|
Well, Netkama Punch is only available on Tappytoon that I have seen, and it goes up to 34-36, so not far off from what you said I'm afraid... if you say is up to 50+ then maybe the translation is still catching up. All the platforms mentioned are official of course, but even through non-official English platforms you are not gonna get after the 30 chapter mark, I guess you are going to have to be patient my friend ;P
|
Hello! You can read Netkama Punch in English in Tappytoon! Other apps with available English interface for BL comics are INKR, Tapas, Lezhin and Manta, although you can find some Bomtoon (an exclusive Korean service) comics in English on WEBTOON, meaning some works from there are translated and can be found on WEBTOON. Is this what you were looking for?

 commented on FlowingRiver's review of Hitsuji no Kawa wo Kita Kemono
Woah spoilers dude
Hmm FIVE out of TEN
It's an interesting work and I definitely recommend it. Every chapter is another intrigue but there is always a 'but'. I don't think it grasped the idea of 'love' it tried so hard to convey throughout the whole story. There is some sort of obsession and dependence...

commented on Kaeseolin's profileSorry for the late response!! You asked me how my weekend was and that was almost a month ago :P well, I actually had the worst month of my life, basically I failed my exams, my dog died, I broke my leg so I'm walking on crutches and part of my house burnt down, very unlucky
|
commented on Kaeseolin's profileAwn that's so sweet! Happy New Year!

You are right, at minimum dubious consent. I will edit my comment later, anyway happy holidays
My current top 6 (combination of stunning art, complex and original storytelling)
Minmotion syndrome
Smyrna & Capri
Plaything: The Grand Duke's Boytoy
The Ghost...

commented on xxNEETxx's profileThank you!! Spending it with family. Happy Holidays for you and your fiance! <3
I'm an elite NEET and fujoshi princess. I'm also really old. I love romance, comedy, slice of life, fantasy, thriller/horror. I'm a particular afficianado of reverse harems. I'm always looking...

commented on xxNEETxx's profileGot it, oh I didn't dislike the UK, I was just not crazy about it :P, anyway, I hope you have a wonderful wedding and honeymoon :)

commented on xxNEETxx's profileYes we had an election, it was between now our ex president Bolsonaro and Lula, Bolsonaro is a lot like Trump actually, he represents the conservative side of our country, was a Covid denier and says the most outlandish things, a lot of people voted for Lula just to get him out, and you know what? I wouldn't say Lula is like Biden but similarly to Biden, he represents a different time and is a known politician, so like "a conventional option", you know? And of course, people voted for him to get the nut job out, anyway I just see some parallels lol. But I don't like Lula, he's from a party that stole public's money for years, he even went to jail lol, here we do have conspiracy theorists (usually followers of Bolsonaro lol, see what I'm saying) but our biggest problem is corruption. So yeah, even though you didn't ask for it, here's a review about it lol
Bamboo fragments? Hahaha conspiricy theorists would be funny if there weren't serious consequences to their actions... hey, since you and your partner are Asian may I ask if you face discrimination? I have heard of Asian people being harassed or attacked there a while ago
Yeah that's what we are known for, Carnaval, meat, soccer and samba lol, I guess with any country we only know the stereotype because that's what we are fed via media and TV, I certainly had different ideas about the US before getting to know the culture and everything through Youtube for instance, anyway, I'm not big on these things, I do participate in Carnaval as I stated before but that's about it, obviously I'm vegan so I don't eat meat lol, you know, ironically Brazil is actually an easy country to be vegan in because of the variety and availability of fruits and vegetables and grains, obviously it's more expensive in a supermarket but in weekly street stalls it's fresh and cheap, plus, we actually have a big community of vegetarians and vegans :D so my point is if you are vegan you can get around here just fine
Oh I see, wait still not married? When are you guys getting married? Do you have a date?
Well, still cool to know that you have relatives here, I'm glad you relayed this information, it's funny, since we talked about our nationalities, which lead me to say I'm from Brazil, which lead me to invite you here, which lead you to say you have relatives here lol, like it's unlikely you would have said this if it weren't for other pieces of the conversation. But will do! If I ever go there, before anything I will contact you So I went to England once to visit my grandpa, he already passed away, so I don't have a reason to go since I also don't love the UK lol, like I much prefer to travel to other countries, ironic I know lol. Do you go to China and/or Singapore?
I actually don't have TikTok, the Chinese government collects your data in a major way, that's why it's banned in India and there were talks of banning it in the US, plus, it's a highly addictive app, I don't want to destroy my attention span lol, I'm actually not a fan of social media in general, you don't seem either, I only have Youtube (my favorite) and Whatsapp (our messaging tool), BUT here's the thing, booktok is a very powerful community, every book they talk and rave about gets to the top of the charts so if a writer wants their book to sell is this way
Amazon is considered a social media? It's actually not big here in Brazil hahaha, we prefer to use national apps, Amazon is the biggest one to online purchases there, correct?
It's because of our geography, most people live in buildings and the houses are gated, especially in my city which is Sao Paulo, so it's like having trick or treat in New York lol, not optimal. At least you don't think we have Thanksgiving though lolol
Have a good week too, TTYS

commented on chellmasterfunk's review of Fucked by My Best FriendGirl! I agree so much! I don't understand the bad rep, maybe people abandoned it in the beginning or something
This was the very first manga that I had ever read. I was into the anime and since all the episodes weren't out yet I decided to read it instead.
I love the gender-bender theme and the best friend-to-lover aspect of it. I am currently on chapter 33 and my interest is still peaked.
This manga...

commented on xxNEETxx's profileYes! Still busy, so no reading and watching anything from my part I'm afraid, I read City of Endless Rain before, short, about 11 chapters I think, angsty though so you wouldn't like it. How about you?
Hahahaha so you can relate! Sweet
My mom does the cooking here, and I prefer Brazilian food, your partner is British, is it? Plus I'm actually vegan hahaha so I can't eat a lot of British dishes anyway
You're kidding?! You have a relative here in Brazil?! What a coincidence lol, and that is such a fun fact
OMG I have thought about writing smut! Well, yaoi, so MLM, actually romance in general, I'm not reclusive to gay couples, and fiction too like sci fi and fantasy, anyway, it's because I would like to write someday, as a hobby though, not profession. Anyway, you are so right girl! People love to shit on the romance genre but did you know is the biggest, aka most lucrative, niche in literature? And if we think about MLM there is definitely space and a demand for it. Do you know about booktok? It's the part of Tiktok that people talk about books and so many women eat up romance, and smut, novels, I can't help but think they are like us but with straight couples lolol (so far at least lol), and they seem to be in that phase that at least I was in the beginning when I first discovered this stuff. Anyway, the romance industry as a whole should not be undermined, did you know love is just as important to us as eat, drink and sleep? According to renowned anthropologist Helen Fisher, love her stuff btw. Girl don't be shy, post it!
Oh and we don't celebrate Halloween here that much, Carnaval is our Halloween lol for real, we dress more on Carnaval than we do on Halloween lolol, shame because it seems wonderful there, well, not as much to you and your partner hahaha

commented on xxNEETxx's profileHi! Actually, I learned English traditionally lol, school and english school, but I use Youtube a lot and pretty much only watch english videos, especially American, that's how I refined my english and became acquainted with the culture, so in reality my accent is closest to American along with my grammar lol, how about my dad you ask? I just find it SO awkward to speak English with him lolol I speak in Portuguese and he answers in English, he speaks in English and I answer in Portuguese lol, I know it's such a waste, one day I will create the courage and speak in English with him because it's good practice, so in reality if we were ever to meet each other I would have a Brazilian accent lol, btw, if you ever decide to travel to Brazil hit me up, I could share tips and hey, maybe even serve as a guide depending where you go, it would be my pleasure! Anyway, I grew custom to novelupdates, I don't think the games are for me, but I read one novel and started another one but I had to stop because right now I'm busy with my course, interior design remember? How about you? Still busy?

commented on xxNEETxx's profileDid it, novelupdates is not very user friendly is it? Idk might be just me, but will take a while for me to get used to it. So you have Chinese heritage, cool, I'm half British, my father came from England, I'm pale like a ghost lol. Will message you when I read the novels, will most likely take a while though, so TTYS!

commented on xxNEETxx's profileLol why did I think you were from Texas? Right you are a Cali girl lol, the desert and everything, yeah you told me about it, well, I'm from Sao Paulo and here it's not hot, our highest record temperature ever was 36°C, which is... 96,8°F for ya hahaha, honestly Brazil is known for being hot, you know the whole tropical image thing, but I feel like it's fairly mild and there are much hotter countries so yeah funny thing haha, anyway, I'm studying to be an interior designer, and you? Oh and you are Chinese? As in, you came from China or...? Well, it's just that I like to accompany American news and there is always something crazy going on there

commented on xxNEETxx's profileShe will not join the MDZS train, sign... lolol, what manhua? Heaven's Official Blessing? Anyway, woah so you read more? You are truly a fan! And I created an account already yes lolol, how do I add you? I added from your list The Demon King Always Thinks I'm Secretly in Love with Him to my list, it was one of the ones that piqued my interest lol, after Mistakenly Saving the Villain I will definitely read it then!

commented on xxNEETxx's profileI will read Heaven's Oficial Blessing then and if you want I can tell you about it, oh! And I checked out The Silent Concubine manhua form, remember that I didn't like the novel and that I thought maybe the manhua is different? It's milesssss better than the novel! I think it's because we have visuals of what's going on and the comic doesn't have to be detailed like the novel since the story advances through dialogue, which were my main concerns with the novel, so yeah, how funny

commented on xxNEETxx's profileSaw your lists, so that's all that you have read? You have been around the block lol, some definitely piqued my interest! And your profile is cute lol it's cute seeing you on another platform Idk, I think I will create one account too. Anyway, you are never going to read MDZS? Do you really hate cultivation lol? Well, the one that I was talking about, called Mistakenly Saving the Villain, is kinda about cultivation, it's a cultivation world, so I don't know how big is the scope of your dislike for the cultivation theme but I wouldn't say it was the focus like MDZS so it could be something passable for you, I read up to half and it's really good, it's different from the previus novels I read that you recommended me, so somewhat fresh concept. Well, it's up to you

I have heard about the monkey pox breakout, sheesh, the USA always comes up with something new, huh lol? I have been doing good, I go to college, schools have opened already, we are at the end of winter, you guys are entering winter...? You live in Texas, was it? How's the weather typically like? And you have a fianceeeee :D congrats girl! When are you guys getting married?! Poor sweet baby, but I'm sure you guys provide a loving happy home for her!

commented on xxNEETxx's profileOooooh right you didn't read MDZS I forgot, ah dammit lolol, well, I think I will read it because people talk highly of it and it's been months since I read MDZS so maybe now I'm in the mood for something of the sort again. My dog is fine thank you, yes, spoiled as always lol, I hope she lives for more 5 years (she's 14), you know when your pet gets to certain age you start wondering how much longer you have with them. What have you been reading, then? Oh and I discovered a cool BL novel if you are interested (completed!), it's about the protag confusing the villain for the hero of the story, it's pretty good. And booster shot...? For what?

commented on xxNEETxx's profileHey how is it going? Been a while. Yes mine schnauzer does the zooming thing lol, typical hahaha. Did you by any chance read Ai no Kusabi? Oh I have been meaning to ask you, you probably don't remember this but we talked about Mo Dao Zu Shi and I said I would solely stick with it and not read Heaven Official's Blessing, but now I'm curious about lmao, is it really worth it to read? How does it compare to Mo Dao Zu Shi?
