Even though some of these aren't romance manga, at some point these characters have shown romantic interest in each other. And for whatever reaon, THEY DIDN'T END UP TOGETHER!!!!

So yes, spoilers ahead. This list serves as a sort of cautionary tale.

Plural System (n.) - the state of having multiple entities collectively sharing a singular body. Notable examples include dissociative identity disorder (formerly known as multiple personality disorder) and other specified dissociative disorder) although being a plural system is not exclusive to the aforementioned disorders.

I will not be taking into account whether or not a character is accurate representation. Any characters represented here does not reflect the entire community. This stack will be inclusive of all system origins (including endogenic) and nondisordered systems (also known as functional multiplicity).

I have read at least a little of all of these, and for those I havent read all of, the rep list and trigger list is for what I've read up to. I try to specify what rep and trigger warnings for these series, but I definitely miss stuff! I suggest does the dog die dot com if you have a trigger that you are worried about, as it is much more in depth than I am. I stopped describing half way through
Not all examples are good examples, and several are definitely meant as stereotypes/caricatures, but I included these anyway and tried to point out the ones I believe to be possibly bigoted/controversial. I've also given context as needed for some identities that are more contextual or up to interpretation, as well as given context for some of the trigger warnings I felt needed it. Some of the manga here are dark, so be aware of the trigger warnings.

Has heavy Spoilers. For manga with relationships between characters that makes you think it's gonna be incest but isn't.

Includes:
Technicalities that makes them not blood related, eg Usagi Drop
Familial relationships mislabeled as attraction, eg Chainsaw Man
Unrequited feelings, eg Chobits

If one would count but has another instance of actual incest, I didn't include it, such as Mushihime. I hate this trope most of the time because it's usually a cop out of actual good themes like mislabeled feelings, so I'll note the ones that I think have this trope done well. For the purposes of this list, I'll only consider incest as blood related, because otherwise, I'd have to analyze relationships further than was intended and then I'd have headcanons on this list, like Deadman Wonderland and Attack on Titan. The exception is for cases like Chainsaw Man where characters are explicitly familial but not blood related and had a story line made me worry would develop into a romantic/sexual relationship but did not. I have another list for Family Coded (Non-Romantic) Relationships.

Manga where a single location is the focal setting and is an important part of the story, eg being trapped in a school
