So, as you know, I am watching the last episode of City of Stars and this show is just...so overwhelmingly wholesome. Every aspect about it. So I was wondering what are your top 5 wholesome shows? Or maybe top 5 shows that were surprisingly wholesome that you didn't expect to be wholesome?
Wasn't it just so amazingly wholesome and sweet and darling!? We love a good couple that communicates!
Anyway!
SO. My Top Five Wholesome Shows (Sometimes Unexpected)?
I can do that.
En Of Love: Tossara: Like I could leave this off the list? The show in which there was no conflict. The show in which they simply... fell in love, talked, communicated, learned to trust and be open and started dating. The softest, most wholesome show ever.
Cherry Magic, both versions but ESPECIALLY the Thai version, honestly: Both versions are very wholesome and include a lot about learning to communicate and talk and open up and trust yourself but Thailand went the extra step and just owned that lesson for both characters.
Our Dining Table: I mean, how could I leave this show off this list? It's perfect in every way and so, so wholesome and the sweetness just permeates every inch of everything with love and kindness and tenderness and learning to trust and learning to live.
What Did You Eat Yesterday? particularly the second season: Again, slice of life and filled to the brim with what happens as you age and love and find more reasons to love and more reason to live and new things in common and new ways to communicate. Absolutely lovely.
Love For Love's Sake: Like, this show has to be here. The end message? The way they fell in love? Learning to love yourself through caring for other people? Finding out that you can love your faults in others and also love them in yourself because they love them in you? Gotta be there.
The one true surprise that isn't on the list but gets mentioned anyway?
6. Big Dragon: Look, they were the most toxic boys in the damn universe but they learned to communicate and love each other and love themselves and they made it work. It was truly glorious.

Time for my first review omg, took a long time but I have been waiting for inspiration to hit me and also I have been busy with things and thoughts. I read this one before sleeping last night and I kept thinking of it today because it was so cute! So here is the review and I tried to not spoil many details so no worries!
Title: Hiyo-chan Koi wo Suru?
Author: Sakura, Rico
Summary: From Good Girls Scan BL: Yoh and Komiya, two boys with brother complexes, start pretending to date. Even though it started out as a plan to make their brothers realize their importance, before they knew it, they started enjoying "fake dating"… To top things off, Komiya, who starts to find Yoh's pureness irresistibly cute, couldn't help but kiss him?? "Should I teach you a kiss that'll make you melt?" "I don't mind anything if it's you, Senpai??"
Tags: yaoi, romance, comedy, school life, fluff, smut
Rating: 9.5/10
What I liked about it: omg where to begin, first of all it was just so adorable, the context of the main couple gives a first love vibe which I love in bl mangas. The doubts, hesitations, confessions, it has all of those elements for sure. The high school setting also gave it a more realistic vibe of first love feelings 💗.
The art was so cute too and the character design was appropriate to portray the difference of personalities of the main couple. The smut scenes also were quite wholesome, consensual and nothing too over the top, kinda playful.
What I didn't like: something that is common with bl mangas like this: it was short, I needed more of their cuteness!!!. But even though it was short it didn't feel too rushed and the progression of their relationship was understandable. And I'm happy we got to see them when they become adults too.
Also there is a special chapter hidden in the manga "Ichinose-kun wa Itsumo Iinari" of the same author (I haven't read that one yet though, only the special chapter). It is chapter 4.5, about them going on vacation together, it was cute too and a sweet gesture from the author to add it somewhere.
That's it, if you do end up reading it, beware of cuteness overdose hehe. And well, let me know your recommendations for other bl mangas to review if you like!

PS. For first timers, remember that mangas are read from right to left 😉

BL Recommendation

Starting With a Lie

Author: Liang Azha.
Status: Completed
Chapters 63.5
Spice level: Very Light
Love and lies don't mix well, so when art student Tang Tang ropes his friend Chen Qingye into pretending to be his boyfriend to stave off unwanted love confessions from his female schoolmates, complications are sure to follow. Chen Qingye is a closeted gay, and now that he and Tang Tang are fake-dating, he has no idea how to admit that his feelings for his faux-boyfriend are very real. Equally clueless Tang Tang also has secret feelings that he doesn't know how to express, and they only seem to grow stronger as time goes on. Can their budding love ever blossom into something real if neither of them has the courage to tell the truth?
