Happy pride! Here are some good manga to check out this month!

A lot of these are BL manga, but not all of them!

BL manga series I enjoyed the most. Will update with more at a latter date in here. Some of these titles are very well known some not so much, I think quite highly of each of them, tho. There is something in here for everyone. Might do a sequel stack, maybe. Enjoy!

By NIJISANJI's BL connoisseur and man of culture, 四季凪アキラ / Shikinagi Akira.

This time, he has recommended us his top 10 picks of gakuen BL manga, i.e. stories centered around school settings. All titles are SFW (according to him, at least).

[Streamed 08/04/2023 on YouTube]

*Will add on what he liked about each one when I'm free :)

Not listed on MAL:
- Kyoudai Seido no aru Yankee Gakuen de, Kyou mo Chigiri wo Semararetemasu (兄弟制度のあるヤンキー学園で、今日も契りを迫られてます)

Now let it do the Boyys...

The CGDCT (Cute girls doing cute things) Genre is a fairly popular genre amongst users. But scrolling though the stacks i found more and more Stacks which are doing the opposite... Cute Boys doing cute things? Many Anime Stack were made... but now im here!

With many thousands boys-love titles and titles which are not tagged as BL... i searched a collection of them, a small and user friendly (aka. no explicit tagged material includet) stack. Have fun exploring :)
