Completed Seinen Romance Manga
Manga
This is a list made by me after reading and finishing over 120 romance mangas, in this list you will find the ones that I liked the most based on the score I gave them at the time.
(Also what I like in an romance is the one-to-one romance so you will hardly find things like Harem, cheating, Romance Triangle, boys love, girls love and etc.)
Most of the mangas here are Seinen but there are some shounens and they all have a short review so I recommend using the list view.
*my english is not good so expect a lot of grammatical errors.
(every manga here you can find it translated to english in the internet, you just have to dig a little)

I like female characters who are yanderes/obsessive, but I think it's especially good when the love is reciprocated. This one, like Koharu no Hibi, the love is reciprocated, but in this case, it's more interesting because, like the FL, the MC also has a twisted mind, making the relationship between the two very different and interesting. In short, the story involved me and hooked me throughout every chapter. For the ending, I was expecting and wanting something tragic, and I think that would fit better with the feeling this manga conveys. However, it was still an acceptable ending that will probably please most people (but not me, who found it very common if you compare with the strangeness of this story).

it is a really good lightweight story, the two main characters are so likable and they build a beautiful romance. Also, the art style is good and the manga finish in a satisfying way. I don't think there is another age-gap romance manga better than this one, this is the peak đ of this genre.

This manga displays a very wrong relationship between a high school student and a middle-aged man, and it can feel quite disturbing just by reading the synopsis. But I think you should still try this one even if you donât condone the age-gap relationship, because the story and drama are super addictive and investing.
I was afraid at first, but I have never been so hooked on a manga before. Every chapter conveys strong emotions that only make you want to know what will happen next. The characters go through a lot of bad situations and mental breakdowns, so you end up feeling empathy towards them. For me, it was like this story has no real villains, everyone has problems and they were victims of many bad situations, which makes you start to feel sympathy for them and understand their actions.
Now, on technical terms, I think this manga has a good storyline and good pacing. The art style is beautiful and unique, and it delivers a satisfying conclusion to the many problems faced throughout the story.

This manga is beautiful and moving. The story is about two young people who die in an accident and have their lives intertwined, but one of them must die for the other to live. The premise is very captivating, and the development of the story captivates you exceptionally. If you read until chapter 3, you will definitely read until the end. Now, regarding the quality of the story itself, I can give it a 10. There is great character development, and the fact that they can feel each other's emotions creates a relationship that is completely different from the norm, with very strong chemistry. It's very good and sweet to see their development, but at the same time, the story makes me feel a constant ache in my heart because we know that in the end, one must go, and you really don't want that because now you really like both characters. In the end, I know many were unhappy with the outcome, but I appreciate endings like this because they convey more feelings and seem more realistic. I'm sad, but I enjoyed the journey and know I will remember this story for a long time because of its beautiful artstyle, story, characters, and transmission of feelings.
I also want to give this story an extra half point because, even though it only has 13 chapters, it's not rushed. I feel like the author really planned for the story to be short but memorable, and I value that. So my final overall score is: 9.5/10

what a absolut banger of manga.
this manga starts quite strange, you don't know why the characters do what they do, and because of that your mind label the MC as a depressed freak and the FL as a pervert woman but you still want to read and see what happens in this suicide adventure that they decided to go. Them the author starts giving information about the characters and their situation and you slowly get why they are doing that so you also change your vision about them, all this in the middle of a trip in which the relationship between the two becomes increasingly cute and heartwarming. in this part of the story you think they gonna stop chasing the death and be a couple but you don't know yet the full story and background Yokionna has and why she is chasing that outcome, the story gets a lot more deeper and heavy and you see how wrong you were about this work.
this manga has a complex story and characters, it truly makes you think about relationships in general and in life or the meaning of living .

Fucking awesome manga. I love when a manga teach about a life leasson with interesting plot and good story telling. In this case the manga works around the ideia of letting people you love go and be strong to overcome them because that is a form o showing your love for that person because if she truly loves you she will want the best for you.

I can't understand how this manga have such a low rating.
The art style is craaaazy good, not really detailed and real looking like vagabond but good in another way that is being beautiful.
The story doesn't give you anything at the beginning, but it follows a very deep path and involves traumas and fears. The more you get to know the characters' story, the more interested you become and when you realize it, you're hooked on reading and want to know the outcome of everything. And then the outcome arrives and it's good, a little rushed but good.
I am not sure if I give this an 8 or an 9 out of 10 but for me it's a 8.5

Since the first chapter I felt a kind of anger or disgust for Hideo and Kurami's relationship. I don't know how to explain it, but these feelings grew and also turned into something hard to explain, like something like "two weirdos, but they deserve each other." The relationship between Katsu and Kyouto is another one that follows a somewhat similar line for me but I don't think Katsu should end with her but is ok. In the middle of the story, the discovery that the doctor has a possible strange relationship with Kurami made me really sick, because even though the MC humiliated himself so much for her, I thought that he still wasn't the only one for her. Thank goodness they apparently didn't have the kind of relationship I imagined. And now, in the end, this work made me feel sad, We all already knew what was going to happen, but it was still very sad, sad but beautiful. Many emotions that a manga rarely manages to convey were conveyed, a captivating and different story that left a wound (I'll have to read some cute, one to one, no harem, no tragedy, wholesome romance mangas to heal that wound).

This is somewhat sad and heavy, it depicts a relationship between an adult man and a teenage girl. The story is a bit more realistic and shows how this kind of relationship robs a child of her life, because she is forced to grow up and lose precious moments of her childhood. All of this is told by showing how the teacher made a mistake by entering into a relationship with this girl, going back to the past, and how he is now trying to redeem himself, with the present also being shown in the story.

An incredible manga that manages to mix sci-fi elements with romance. The manga also makes you think about relationships and how the lack of honesty in feelings is problematic (tsunderesđ). In the end, I think it was a great read, being unique, reflective and fun. The tags that this manga has deceived me a lot about the content inside it, I think people should give it a chance.

Although Hibino makes some bad decisions, I feel like I can't hate him, he didn't have much social experience and because of that he did what he did. In the end I liked the journey and I was happy for who the MC declared his love to, I just wanted a little more detailed ending showing the future but ok.

I can't describe how cute and wholesome this manga really is.
The relationship between Kanba and Fujiyama is so pure and adorable, and combined with the atmosphere the manga brings, with many beautiful panels and little text that feels like a movie. This manga warmed my heart, and in some parts, it reminded me of the feeling I had when watching Boku no Kokoro.
I highly recommend this manga there you will find great characters, lighthearted story and heartwarming feelings.
8.4/10 (the author could've given us more details at the end and show what we readers are all wating, then it would've been a 9/10).

this manga is really wholesome, the characters are really likable and they become even more likable through the story. They are a strange couple but that make even more interesting, also i really like a mature romance with adult couples like this one, the only bad thing is how much yapping this manga has sometimes.

Yes, yes, the morality of this manga is questionable(and I like that, sorry ), but I can't deny that it kept me reading because I was curious about what was going to happen. And the manga does a good job of mixing a cute story with a lot of shit happening.

It was an entertaining story, it had several cute and funny moments and the characters are likeable but the story its not that outstanding but I will give a point for not having harem and also a point for the forbidden relationship of teacher-student ( I like that and I don't care).

I started reading this manga looking for romance, but that's not the main focus here. Instead, the story goes for a unique and immersive setting, captivating the reader through the main characterâs decisions as he faces numerous challenges and trials. It's easy to connect with the characters, the story and even the autor.
Explaning better, one of the strong aspects of this manga is how evident it is that the author did a good research and put a lot of thought into the world-building. You can feel the richness of detail especially when it comes to royalties, politics, and etc.
While reading, I found myself learning new things about this type of stuff in a entretaining way.

This one Is really interesting, it reminds me of "the world only god knows" but much more serious and less romantic. I do recommend this story because it is both entertaining and addictive although the story is very rushed. It could have been better if the autor take more time developing the story, I think this work should have at least 30 chapters.

Brooooo this manga had such an incredible potential for an short story that I feel sad for the way it ended. I was pretty good I just think a few more chapters with a good and fulfilling ending would make this story peak at an rating of 9/10. But it ended very abruptly, the ending is not bad in a way that make you hate the story or anything but in a way that make you want more to see what happens next.
But I still recommend this one, story is good, art style is 10/10 for me and characters are easy to like.

This story works with a subject that is very taboo but the way and the mensage that the story tries to convey make it a little easier to "digest" , I think. But clearly I will never recommend this manga to no fucking one in earth because it is really gross đ€ą sometimes, still entertaining though.

A cute romance that really progresses over time, even though the MC is living together with two other girls. There are no love triangles to get in the way of the relationship between the MC and the FML.
Plus, almost all the characters are likeable, except for the glasses guy, who honestly knocked a point off my rating. Good ending though!

harem is very troublesome because the MC will have to choose one in the end and make the others sad but if he pick all girls most of the time is bad because is not realistic, like feels fake( i dont know how to explain). But i liked the approach of the autor here because of the multiple endings so we can see all the girls having their happy end.
the art style of this work is super good and the story will maintain you entertained until the end.

I have no clue why the score is so low here on MAL because this story is really a hidden gem, the art work is super high quality, characters are actually good and likable (yeah they have some bad points like being so insecure) and the story is funny and has some cute moments. If I could say something that I feel missing was a better detailed romance ending, like I canât say much but in the end we will not see that much of a progress.

It's a heavy story that makes you feel sad for Mayuko's situation. She suffers a series of misfortunes, and the MC, who would normally be a good person and help in this situation, also contributes to these misfortunes. But in the end, things work out, and the characters develop for the better. I recommend reading it because it's interesting and different, but I can't guarantee anything.
