This stack is a collection of BL/Boys Love/Shounen Ai manga (without the "Erotica" tag) which are done after 1 volume and don't continue in further sequels, spin-offs or other related series. Listed here are only manga where one story fills out the entire volume. Manga with included one-shots that have nothing to do with the main story as well as collections of several short stories are excluded.

Tags: 1 volume boys love, 1 volume BL

Part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/30435

I'll be including everything I've read except for certain series which just... feel... wrong and fetishizing? (I mean, e.g.: Ten Count by Takarai Rihito and almost all works of Kurahashi Tomo) Feel free to let me know if you feel like there is something included in this stack that feels like it shouldn't be here.

(list is arranged mostly by my score)

For those of you who have a weakness for the "bad boy" type look, even wothout the actual delinquent personality or yakuza background, these inked hot hunks are just what you need! Enjoy these badass tattooed ML to your heart's content!

Many manga were published in Brazil, i chose a few for this list.

If you're looking for more than simple fluff and classic twist and want a story that will stay with you for a long time after you're done reading, these are for you. Not to worry, these aren't dark dramas, they have their own kind of happy ending, but it's not with a carefree light heart.
I've only listed the reads that even though they really got to me, they were still beautiful stories. Each one of these titles gripped my heart and made me feel more than the usual BLs. Whether it be a character or the storyline, my mind kept going back to it, even several other reads afterwards.

This stack lists works with airhead protagonists and/or male leads in BL.

Note: arranged in the order of release. Most of the titles are NSFW.

Work in progress!

These reads will leave your heart feeling light and a dreamy look on your face. 🥰
These are garanteed fluffy reads for when you need some pure love and happiness, with maybe a few genuine laughs here and there ! ❤️

OBS:

That version of "Koe no katachi" here is the "Special Edition".
That new version of "1945" is a re-release.

Works that are not in the MAL:

.Shukujo no Himegoto - Onna-tachi no Toshi Densetsu
.Hyperventilation(Manhwa)

Composition is one of, if not, the most important aspect for storytelling within a visual medium such as manga and comics. Commonly referred within the world of cinematography as the "Split-Screen" or "Frame within a Frame" these techniques are often used to show division between characters or separate actions or perspectives simultaneously.

Another technique known as "Double Exposure" might also be considered. Similar to the former, these shots typically have a character appear in frame (often mirrors, reflections, or overlays) to symbolize duality of personality or inner conflict. Overlaying images such as "Sayornara Eri" are compatible with the list and are technically sharing both of these technical shots. If there are too many entries I will make and link a dedicated stack.

One Shot manga with their pages shown do not count.
