[NOT RANKED]... more>>

I'm tired of the double standards, third parties, unnecessary drama, scumbags etc. This list features extremely devoted couple! 1v1 HE. Totally safe to read. 

Gong (Seme) and Shou(Uke) are each others first & only s*xual partner; first & only love.  (Either it's explicitly mentioned, mentioned by the author, mentioned between the lines, or assumed in some cases if no other partners/ prior experience is mentioned). No exes, cinnabar moles, substitutes etc. 

No other partners in case of a seperation or breakup. 

No getting r*ped/ assaulted/ kissed/ mol*sted by passerbys or supporting leads. No love triangles or leading others on. If there's a harem it should be dismissed by the end. If either Gong or Shou are actors, then they should be the type that doesn't do intimate scenes. 

No kids involving other women (surrogacy). No marriage of convenience with other woman. 

P.S I only have requirements for the main cp.

I'll try my best to eventually mark the details...

No description.

I felt the need to make a separate list dedicated to the fantasy and story focused novels, ranging from xianxia, wuxia, ancient times to mystery, sci-fi and horror genres, with a more mature bl romance subplot.... more>>

One of the most memorable novels that kept me on tenterhooks through the whole read.

Mostly slow-burn romance. Also, this list contains quite a few of more well known novels, nevertheless I hope you'll be able to uncover something new to pick up!

As always 1v1, HE <<less

Some are so sweet I want to throw up, some make me want to go back in time and be born into these families, and... more>> some just make me wanna cry <<less

Stories where at least one of the MCs is part of the entertainment circle in some way.

Danmei adapted to manhuas that have official English translations (completed/ongoing/discontinued) + where to read them (status included: ongoing unless stated otherwise). Most manhuas are R15 even when the novel's genre is yaoi.... more>>

Novels/manhuas that are printed or announced to be printed are put on the first page of the list. Works written by the same author are put together. Novels are sorted by their popularity.

Since the list reached 1oo positions, I created its second part, however they will be _both_ updated if and when new titles appear or get licensed, with new title's place based on the novel's popularity and/or whether the author's other works are on the list already. If you know danmeis with official English translations of their manhua adaptations that are here on novelupdates but not yet on my list, please let me know in the comments.
