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 part 2 for my original “Non-Highschool Yuri (Adult GL)” stack found here: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/11110

nice GL manga that felt not as fetishizing from the taste of an ace sapphic :)
basically took out my fav GLs from my enjoyable safe queer manga stack + adding more that won't fit

+ also manhwa, manhua etc. but keeping the title simple

**Exit’s That Way! - is very NSFW + discontinued but still good imo

honourable mentions not on MAL:
Hide Your Tears, You Crybaby & Today I'll (Make You) Confess by Minami (High School, Manhua)
Fugue Across Worlds (Historical, Manhua)
I Love Amy (Psychological, Manhwa)
Heroine toka Yoku Wakannai kara, Akuyaku Reijou to Nigemasu (One-Shot)
If It Rains Next Week (One-Shot)

Yuri series where the main characters are already dating prior to the start of the series! I personally love reading about the dynamics of already-together couples and the domesticity and casual touches they share (save for one title in this list that chooses to bend the rules of relationships and commitment... buttt that's besides the point).

I'm wondering if I want to add oneshots as well similarly to how I've done my other stacks, but we will see. I'll have to reread a bunch of tankobons to jog my memory!

Any manga or manwha that primarily revolves around sapphics in a college environment.

Note: I did not include any overly explicit series in this stack.

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

Work in progress

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
