manhuas or novels danmei!

Danmei (Chinese: 耽美; pinyin: dānměi; lit. 'indulging beauty') is a genre of literature and other fictional media originating from China which features romantic relationships between male characters

The absolute creme of the crop, in terms of physical attractiveness.

Stack notes:
- Characters are male in sex and (mostly) masculine in gender expression
- Applicable character(s) listed for each manga
- Contains BL (boys love)

A selection of manhwa/manhua (webtoons/webcomics) that are or have a version that's entirely or mostly monochromatic black and white, from ~2010 and onward (nonexclusive).

Selection is based on the appeal of the story (mostly drama/slice of life/romance/adventure/mystery/horror) and/or art (fairly clean & detailed).

"bonus:" added for entries that are as manga-like as possible in terms of PANEL STRUCTURE (no excessive gutter spacing), FORMAT (not long vertical), and/or ART (hand-drawn or hand-drawn-style).

Stack notes:
- contains BL (boys love)
- for titles not currently on MAL, find on my Anime-Planet List: https://www.anime-planet.com/users/iliad33/lists/select-mostlybandw-manhwamanhua-circa-20-1099235

Boys love manga with beautiful/aesthetically pleasing (character) art that’s detailed, on the realistic side, and clean & polished, bringing to life characters and creating a good sense of setting. Effective composition & panelling are taken into account too.

Distinctiveness in style is not considered here but in the “Distinctive & captivating art styles” stack: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/36747

Stack notes:
- I’ve read, am reading, or PTR but have looked through parts of (denoted by “*initial impression”) the listed mangas; stack will be updated accordingly
- Max 2 entries per artist (I’m exercising self-restraint, but safe to assume that other works by the same artist are worth checking out)
- No prequels/sequels included
