Favorite danmei

It's c*m to my attention that I need to separate these beautiful MLs from the rest of the bunch. ... more>>

These sadistic/dom MLs cherish their MC, they closely watch their masochistic partners and adjust the play's difficultly levels or make long plans to ease into new play without harm. Never torture or abuse, they monitor their MC's masochistic limits with the goal of creating a long-term loving future relationship.

These MLs coax and reward their MC after a difficult training session, focuses on play that their MC also enjoys. The kind of ML that slyly introduces new play as a solution to an easily solved problem.----- I need to protect these MLs. More like I need to easily access these gems whenever I want.

Oh, and I hate actual torture (where the protagonist is actually living in hell and enjoys nothing). Sick f*cks. Even if I prefer seeing the MC cry and push their masochistic limits, I DO NOT want to see them resolutely hate it. 

One more thing, I'll only include novels where the ML loves MC and plans to continue a relationship with a HE. So, doting s*x partners without love, in*est family love but without seeking dating, and twisted broken love that ends in tragedy. They all won't be on this list, because those MLs don't deserve the Warm-Loving sad*st ML title.

For the novels not on NU, I left the great scripture in the comment section. <<less

and a bit of angst (will be specially noted) <<less

(Updated: 5/9/24) Works that I enjoy in spite of shoddy writing &/or red flags. OR they can just be really great in general lol. Can’t believe I’ve read enough to make a part 2 of this list... more>>

My preferred taste is FLUFFY, but I also sport for the occasional angst & tearjerker novel. Modern stories are personally easier to digest. Historical or xianxia/cultivation stories are loaded with Chinese references & I can easily get lost. However, they can be very poetic & beautiful, which is why I bear the pain of treading carefully. Unlimited flow is a fun pastime at the cost of my brain cells.  <<less
