I do hope you make good friends soon enough!

Not interested in carrying this conversation forward?

> Is there realy Josei without romance?
My comment was for both josie and seinen, and yes, both genres exist without romance. Sensei mo Net Sedai is a josei about a cross dressing male teacher, while Haru no Noroi is about a woman dating her dead sister's fiance.
For seinen, check out chapter 1 of Unmei no Onnanoko, and then there's a BL romance (10 Dance) that's again aimed at a seinen audience. All You Need Is Kill, Avant-garde Yumeko, Bakemono Recchan/Kinoko Takenoko, Yuretsuzukeru and Alive (Takahashi, Tsutomu) are also some different options for you. Here's an interesting stack I found, if you're interested https://myanimelist.net/stacks/17972

> I don't remember details but I believe it was just a romance.
It was actually a good discussion around one of the MC's sexuality, but I know that that is not something which interests most people. For reference, Shimanami Tasogare is another good sienen where multiple characters' sexualities are discussed throughout the manga.

> Btw, what about your tastes? If we exclude BL, is there other genres that you enjoy? 4.5k can't be all BLs... can it? xD
Roughly 200 manga or 5% of my completed manga are from miscellaneous genres. The remaining 95% are all BLs.

I've tried a few from Josei and Seinen, but I made sure to avoid romance completely. It's just usually boring and bland.

I'm surprised to hear "something that doesn't break my `suspension of disbelief` and contains coherence to it's ideas in and through" and "isekai" in the same breath (and not in a bad way). Isekai is nothing if not constant loopholes pertaining to MC's limitless and inexplicable powers/power ups.

You can try reading the Blue Flag manga. It's Shounen just in name - its content is more Seinen in nature. Fair warning though - the mangaka rushed its ending and while I wasn't put off by it, I was unhappy with how quickly things were resolved between the characters.

If you're focused on plot, then maybe try the josie and seinen genres, because shounen and isekai will not give you the level of satisfaction that you see.

> I actually don't understand how did you manage to read 4.5k mangas with completion (and here I thought I am an avid reader :D but even if I add up vns, my other manga lists I'm still slightly short of that number)
😂😂😂 People often believe that about themselves, till they stumble across my reading list 😂

> How do you manage to almost always read the entirety of a manga without dropping it? Is it devotion to just.not.drop(TM) or something else?
I don't have a No-Drop rule, otherwise I wouldn't have 40 dropped manga in my list. I'm honestly surprised myself as to how I've managed to not give up on reading manga, but that's partly answerable because:
1. I've found that unless a manga is complete trash, I'm able to tolerate it.
2. Many manga are predictable and if I've read that same plot 500 times already and I know where the manga's heading, I usually read half or 2/3rd of it and mark it as Read anyway.
3. I read manga mostly for entertainment, and sometimes for its gorgeous art. The plot is always a bonus for me.
4. Most BLs are short - on an average they are 7-10 chapters long, and that's a short enough time period for me to keep my interest sustained. It's the longer manga where I eventually lose my interest bc the plot becomes either repetitive, predictable or it's stretched like a rubber-band.

Seems to me that you're still in the process of discovering what you do or don't like, because IMO most manga lose their appeal/potential after a fixed number of chapters. That's just how things are.

Why's your manga drop list so big?
