Wholesome Shounen-ai & Yaoi (PT.3)
Manga
Without anything sad, upsetting, hurtful, or over-the-top drama. Wholesome romance for a pleasant read. Only the happy stuff!
All relationships shown are healthy ones, unless specifically stated.
(Sex sometimes included!)
I only add materials I have completely read! So this list always updates as I continue to read.

A bit of a longer read that I don't normally find myself saying "that's a wholesome one" to.
This is a bit more "smut", so keep that in mind!

K so I actually laughed more than I should. This one has a dumb setting but I absolutely love it.
There's some sexy stuff but it's not overdone, and it's all for the greater cause! Feeding a tentacle!

WHY IS THIS SO CHARMING. WHAT THE HELL.
I have a soft spot for characters that are super silly, funny faces, acting over the top, and just dorky. So this one scratches that itch. And it's just... wholesome as hell, dude... wtf
Also this is probably smut. There's more than a couple sex scenes haha
