To love valiantly even without certainty of reciprocity is the mark of a winner!

Extra points rewarded for MCs who proactively go after what they want (aka the ML).

All Happy Endings, and MC's feelings are eventually requited or were requited from the start, because I want everyone to be happy. <<less

My favourites of all Time. Plot Guaranteed. Personally opinionated.... more>>

Rating -5 (The Best of The Best)

Rating -4.5 (A little Lacking, but still okay)

Rating -4 (Although there's something I don't feel likable, it's still worth to read.)

Reminder: I usually like to read Handsome, Ruthless (occasionally Black-Belly) Shous with Femininely pretty but capable Gongs.

Although I add the tag 'Seme protagonist', not all have it. I just want to remind you that there're novels with seme protagonists in my list. <<less

***If a story is deleted in this list, that means that the story is completed, thus, it will be added to my 'Completed *inncent* and *spicy*' list, depending on its genre. <<less

I'm a sucker for cliche plots btw, beware. 

Where ukes/shous/bottoms clearly express their feelings and take charge of the relationship!... more>>

-There are several QTs where there are worlds in which they are quite tsun tsun but obviously they are simping ML into their minds

-It is taken into account that before the relationship is established there a clear interest and courtship

-No specific order 

If you have suggestions, tell me!!! This is my favorite relationship dynamic
