yaaaay new year, new shojo and josei manga! as always will update this throughout the year and let me know if anything is incorrect <3


Edit: Splitting the stack up now :3 will have part 2 and part 3 up asap *thumbs up*

series that focus on women in a positive context! ig you could say feminist. Definitely normal about women, no weird sexualization/male gaze, have different types of women, are sympathetic to them, might be autobiographical w a female author, etc., . If I had a daughter, i'd encourage them to read it, yadda yadda.

Maybes: Apothecary diaries, princess jellyfish, How Do We Relationship?, Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon, Yume no Hashibashi, Ohana Holoholo, My Broken Mariko, Goodbye, My Rose Garden, In This Corner of the World, Paradise Kiss

A list of all the Shojo and Josei manga titles licensed in English by Seven Seas Entertainment.

I'm defining "modern" Shojo and Josei manga to mean anything that began being published in 2013 or later. Obviously personal taste plays a role in whether you'll like something. I'm also trying to focus on Shojo and Josei manga licensed in English officially, so some excellent stories will sadly be missing from this list (they should probably get their own at some point).
