A compiled list of all the 'Girl's Love' genre of manga that I have read over the past 2 years that is overall wholesome and has a decent story/art.

There is no specific order to this list. I have made them from my most enjoyable series to least enjoyable. Do with that as you may.
This list contains manga that is both completed and ongoing.
"Wholesome" = Healthy Relationship (with communication, trust, respect, honesty)

A collection of my favorite romance manga, as drama-free as possible :]

A list of both mainstream and criminally underrated yuri/GL I’ve read that DO NOT take place in high school. There’s a lot of yuri centred around high school and middle school settings and certainly not enough between adults.

Hope you guys find something here to your liking :)

Part 2 can be found here: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/24126

Stories where at least one of the romantic leads has a number of braincells equal to or lesser than one, in the endearing kind of way.

Like an LN, it is in the title. These are some lesser known manga I recommend giving a chance. All yuri. About 5 thousand members or less as of early 2023.

Edited to add/remove some titles. (3/20/2024 3AM)

Removed:
Anemone wa Netsu wo Obiru

Added too many to list comfortably.

Works in which the main protagonist has been in previous romantic relationships prior to getting together with their main love interest, or is established to have been in a romantic relationship prior to the events of the story.

Life begins on the veranda.

I sometimes have a girl love phase and I thought why don't I just make a new interest stack of that.
So I did that.

I'm not putting in all the GL manga I've read.
I chose the mangas I just really love! and some because I think it's worth reading.

I think I'll update regularly.

If you think there are any stories missing that would fit in my list. Then let me know via a chat message! I'm looking for more!!

I'll be including everything I've read except for certain series which feel wrong and/or fetishizing. Feel free to let me know if you feel like there is a manga included in this stack that feels like it shouldn't be here.

I know this doesn't make the stack any more credible but, it was made by a sapphic person so at least you can be sure I won't be including any stuff that grosses me out.

(PS: More descriptions will be added later on... maybe...)

Mangas published from 2020 onwards.

I read the first chapters of all of them, some I like and others I don't, but hey, variety is the joy.

Basically the same as part 1, but the requirements are less demanding. Clarify, they are not lists for a specific audience. There is something for everyone.

I will gradually catch up with all the mangas on the list to see if I remove them or not, I'm not going to be picky. This list is not about my tastes, it is with love from me to you, Mr. and Mrs. strangers.

Finally, there is everything here, yuri, yaoi, ecchi, not ecchi. The only thing I won't put will be NTR and all its variants so liked by our Japanese friends.

this stack was made for my own personal preferences for keeping up with my favorite type of adult yuri / lesbian josei romances! i personally lean towards stories about college age or older lesbian stories, as i’m an adult lesbian myself, and don’t always want to read about high school age romance (as wholesome as it can be!). if you’re looking looking for romance that is about women in their 20’s or older, then look no further!

(will try to update this often as i discover more works with this theme).

Queer manga published in English through Yen Press.

**DISCLAIMER** I do not condone actions taken in manga like Netsuzou TRap and Kitanai Kimi ga Ichiban Kawaii, but I included them because overall they're pretty well known yuri

The best yuri manga I've read after two years of exploring GL and over 125 titles.
