I was searching for a wholesome Student x Teacher romance manga. I formed an Interest Stack of all the mangas that other users in the forum recommended.

I haven't read all of them yet, but I would appreciate it if you could help me organize these entries and suggest some more. I will add descriptions to these titles after reading them and provide information such as Pairing Gender (Teacher - Female/Male or Student - Male/Female), Wholesome/Drama/Ecchi/Smutty, and the general tone of the series.

Please let me know if any entry doesn't belong in the Stack.

I just found out that there is a club named Student x Teacher Relationships. They have sorted the Student x Teacher Anime/Manga list according to pairings. However, the club is not very active now, and the list was last updated in 2013.
(age gap - Older Man - Young Woman and Older Woman - Young Man, forbidden love)

Note: Apparently, I was inclined to add entries with female teachers. 😅 There aren't many entries with Male Student x Female Teacher to begin with, but there are many with Female Student x Male Teacher. In the future, I will try to add titles regardless of my personal preference.

Relationships with an older man and younger girl who do not fuck on screen

Compilation of manga with a significant relationship between older and younger characters in a way that is /not necessarily romantic or sexual/. Some of these will be outright dating, some will be ambiguous, and some will have no indication of romance or sex at all no matter how you stretch it. The common thread is that the relationship between the characters of different ages is very significant whether to them or to the plot. There's no theme as to plot so some are purely fluffy, some are angsty or violent and a few are sexually explicit.

Oldish manga featuring characters that evoke the 萌え (moe) reaction as per the standards in the early-to-late 2000's, when the so-called moe phenomenon was at its peak in Japanese wota-culture. The titles I've listed here vary greatly in terms of genre, subject matter, and popularity, but they all hold the moe factor in common (in my opinion, anyways.) Some of the popular titles have resurfaced here in the Western side in recent years as part of an internet-born aesthetic known most commonly as "animecore."

*I've only listed manga here. Some of these series originate as light novels, or their light novel counterparts predate the manga (if they're based on anime or games, for example.) In the case of multiple manga adaptations, I've only included the earliest published title.

**If you're not familiar with the concept of "moe" or would like to learn more about it, I also recommend reading these great books on it:

not that it's a bad thing per say, but it's hard to dismiss said aspect about the series.

Manga with child characters of elementary or middle school age. Lots but not all entries have lolisho content so be warned
