A list of the earliest manga series and one-shots with a focus on mlm relationships. 👨‍❤️‍👨 These series are often notable for the social and political factors that motivated a lot of these stories, and one of my goals in producing this list is exposing others to the world of different themes and ideas being explored in early series. While some of these approach mlm relationships from the perspective of second-wave feminists expressing their sexuality in a time where women being overtly sexual was looked down upon, a large amount of series listed do tackle issues faced by many gay and queer men throughout the world during the 80s and 90s, such as prostitution, drug abuse, homophobia, and the AIDS epidemic. Besides this, while many stories here have difficult subject matter, there is a lot of hope in these narratives and many examples of genuine queer romance sprouting from the developing genre.

For the sake of preservation, the list will be ordered on release date and will only include works that have been either officially released in English or have received unofficial scanlations. For simplicity sake, I won’t be including outright pornographic series (yaoi or bara), but series that present sex but are not focused on titillation are absolutely fine.
