This stack collects BL manga which have longer stories or several stories about different characters in one universe, but can't be easily found because they're not in one entry. Instead, they're split in many sequels, spin-offs, side-stories, etc. The stack doesn't list all related series but only the first manga or the main manga. Also check the "more info" tab on the DB entries, they might contain more information about the best reading order.

What makes a BL story fluffier and cuter and hotter and...? Animal features for our BOYZ, of course!
You can also find stories with characters that appear as anthropomorphic animals.

BL I’ve completed and enjoyed reading. All of these manga are stuff I have reread multiple times. There are some manga on here with dubious consent so if that triggers you make sure to keep an eye out so that when you go to read it you aren’t blindsided. I hope you find something new to read! These are not even half of the BL manga that I’ve read so I will probably end up making more parts of this. (Working of Explanations!)

BL manga/manhwa you need to read at least once. Containing scenes intended for a mature audience but are not lacking in plot content. A perfect balance between the two
