Shoujo manga magazines typically feature stories with female leads: the character whose perspective and inner thoughts primarily narrate the story to the audience.

The manga collected in this stack are original works serialized in these same shoujo magazines, but instead feature a male leading character. Story plots can fall into any genre and vary widely, including Romance, Adventure, Horror, or Comedy.

Please note Boys Love (BL) stories and male casts with heavy BL subtext are excluded from this stack. Manga serialized in josei magazines are also excluded as there are specific publications which have a higher tendency to feature only male characters.

Manga collected in this stack have stories which focus on the struggles of maintaining, repairing, or building family bonds. These relationships should be between the main characters and must be non-romantic in nature.

Series which focus primarily on taking care of infants to pre-teen children will not be included in this stack; please use the Childcare theme to find these stories. However, if the childcare component is only one relationship of multiple in the family, then these manga will also be added here.

These manga focus on caring for children above the age of ten, as well as the relationships between older children or teenagers and their parental figures.

Just brief, snack-sized manga reads for you to enjoy during your morning coffee, lunch break, or before going to bed. Inspired by the 1-Volume Reading Challenge Stack-series which I find great.

With this one, I will attempt a balanced mix between old and new 1-volume manga. Enjoy!

About family and its ties in different shapes and forms - some wholesome, some tender, some hurtful, some traumatic.

Will add more later.
