anthology = "a collection of artistic works that have a similar form or subject"

there is no common theme or genre for every entry of this stack, but the majority of them are dramas. some are pretty dark as well, so please make sure to check on that before starting them (i think there is a guro one as well so).

as of now the manga here are pretty random, but i plan to sort them a bit after reading more anthologies. until then i it's easier to have them all in one place

Manga that feature transgender boys/men.

side note but I found some websites, which feature a lot more vintage yuri so I'm adding the links since they're good resources for more obscure titles! ^_^
