If you're looking for more than simple fluff and classic twist and want a story that will stay with you for a long time after you're done reading, these are for you. Not to worry, these aren't dark dramas, they have their own kind of happy ending, but it's not with a carefree light heart.
I've only listed the reads that even though they really got to me, they were still beautiful stories. Each one of these titles gripped my heart and made me feel more than the usual BLs. Whether it be a character or the storyline, my mind kept going back to it, even several other reads afterwards.

Boys Love Compilation (just because it's here doesn't mean it's good)

This series of interest stacks is a list of mangas & light novels that have been or are being licensed and published in Argentina. This DOES NOT include imported physicals originally released in other territories, only manga licensed for the Argentine market. Novels, Manhwa and Manhua are included, however, manga-style non-asian releases are not mentioned here. Any manga missing on MAL will be noted in each stack's description, or in particular entries related to them.

The manga are in alphabetical order according to the title they were published under in Argentina, and not according to their original title. Each modified title is noted under each manga. Most of these can be bought online, although there are discontinued manga which can no longer be found unless bought second-hand.

These interest stacks will be updated (semi-)regularly and should always be considered to be incomplete. Please, message me if there's any entry missing, and/or if any info is wrong or missing. Due to MAL's 50-items limit on interest stacks, the entire list spans multiple stacks, some of which are continuations of the same letter.

Manga not on MAL:
- Joy 2 (Distrito Manga)

2nd stack of manga with queer relationships and minimal to no sexual content that i found likeable + felt not as fetishizing as most others
(not that there's anything wrong w sexual content but it's hard to find stuff in these genres that aren't mostly written for the smut)

part 1: myanimelist.net/stacks/3978

this part was put together very abruptly since part 1 has most of my favs so lemme know if anything should be taken out

stack created by a sex-repulsed biro ace :)

+ manhwa, webtoon, novels, etc. but it's easier to keep the title simple lol

Queer manga published through Kodansha (some under Vertical Inc).

A list of all the digital-only english licenses for Shojo and Josei manga by Kodansha. This does include some titles that received print-runs from now-defunct publishers like Old Tokyopop or Del Rey Manga. Depending on what they announce the list will be edited accordingly.

Part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/56732
Part 1: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/56730

*The Cloistered Princess and the Royal Groom is also a kodansha Shojo digital-only title, but I didn't have room for it on this list (https://myanimelist.net/manga/146330/Hikikomori_Hakoiri_Reijou_no_Kekkon?q=The%20Cloistered%20Princess%20and%20the%20Royal%20Groom&cat=manga)

*I Don't Want to be killed by you, my crown prince!: set up by the blessed one, I will avoid a second attempt on my life! is also one, but I ran out of room (https://myanimelist.net/manga/149797/Outaishi-sama_Watashi_Kondo_koso_Anata_ni_Korosaretakunai_n_desu__Seijo_ni_Hamerareta_Binbou_Reijou_Nidome_wa_Kushizashi_Kaihi_shimasu)


There are 2 titles which Kodansha publishes as digital-only currently that don't have MAL entries:
- My Ice-Rose Husband Said He Only Wants Me to Play the Role of the Next Duchess, but Now He's Stalking Me at Home!
- Her Majesty Wants a Divorce: Now that a Saint has Come from Another World, I Suppose I'm No Longer Needed, Right?

*kusattemo ani doesn’t rlly have a romance focus but it’s funny
