I tend to like series with these criteria to them, so here's a list of them. Feel free to give me recs of stuff to add!

While these works deal with mature themes and, or aimed at an adult audience, they are told from the perspective of a child.

some of the manga have aroace characters too

manga with things like cross dressing, important characters who are trans/nonbinary and gender bending.

(i havent read every one of these so if i made a mistake with what i wrote about them please tell me)

LGBT (gay, lesbian, bisexual, binary transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, intersex, queer, pansexual, asexual, aromantic, etc.) characters in mangas I've read that are not listed as Boy's Love or Girl's Love on MAL.

Whether it be beautiful, sad, cruel or happy, these titles follow a character across multiple years of their life, observing them being slowly shaped into... something.

This "something" can be a cruel end, a fiery goal achieved, a promise fulfilled, or a love finally found - a metamorphosis of a lifetime.

I tried to add as many different flavors of a "metamorphosis" as I could - from disturbing, to sweet, to heartbreaking, to inspiring and many more.

There's an anime/manga magazine in Finland called "Anime". I personally read it for ten years but stopped during 2020 bc I didn't like the magazines new look etc but that's not the point.

Over the years this magazine has recommended all shorts of manga/anime so just out of boredom, I decided to check all of the LGBT manga reviews that has gotten "green light" or 5/5 aka are highly recommended to read. I'm mainly adding series that are yaoi/yuri or has really strong LGBT themes, so no just a random series with one lgbt side character. (I check if the series have the tag etc or if the series have heavy lgbt+ related themes)

I'm only adding the entries that I can find from the magazines I have :)

How many have you read?
