Hello everyone. For a long time i’ve been reading only manga with a dark and serious atmosphere like Dorohedoro, Ajin or Ganzt. Somehow I need a break to see some light. So i hope you guys can give me some good romance manga recommendations.

I would appreciate any recommendations but I would prefer one where the characters feel real, no the imaginary or stereotypical prefect "woman or man".

Thanks in advance.

Here are a few lesser known manga

  • Kyou mo Veranda de (is similar to telework)
  • Misumi-san Can't See Through
  • Tonari no Seki no Yatsu ga Souiu Me de Mitekuru
  • Kesa Mo Yuraretemasu (one of my favorite, it is heavier on the comedy and lighter on the romance)
  • Alice-san Chi no Iroribata (age-gap romance)
  • Ao no Hana, Utsuwa no Mori
  • Haru no Noroi (a very dark romance, with some elements of suicide)

+1s for Alice-san and Ao no Hana. Both include some interesting stuff about open hearths and pottery, respectively.
