r/MaleYandere

alt title: fantasy library / 妄想文库

I just recently got into the genre (new hyper-focus unlocked) and have been reading a new series almost every night for the past month from all the recommendations I've seen here. But now that I've read a lot of the main staples and all (I've got a tier list post I plan on making at some point when I get through the rest of my TBR), I want to see if I can find something that caters to my own specific interests.

Touya Todoroki from MHA and Endo Yamato from Wind Breaker are the most attractive men in fiction I've ever seen and I want to see if there's any yandere media out there with MLs that look like them. So I'd love to find more series that have an ML with white or black hair and teal eyes. Dreaming Freedom was what started it all because I passed by a post of Siyun on TikTok and thought he looked a bit like an unscarred AU version of Touya, and so far no character has beaten him when it comes to attractiveness. 2L's art is just too fucking good. And I also love Kang Woojin from Love Jinx, that man literally is just Endo in another font. But those two are really the only ones I've found that kind of fit that description. No matter what I've read nothing has really compared to these two so far. (Though Reinhart from Failed to Oust the Villain, Kwon Chae Woo from Flowers Are Bait, Yunsu Park from Olgami, and Chae Yul from Secret Alliance are all pretty great too.)

So yeah, if anyone has recs send them my way! (Even better if the FL has black hair and gold eyes.) Thanks!

He did have his scenes where he treats and talks about Yuki in a rather unsettling way... which usual shoujo leads can't relate to. I find that hot asf but yk r/Shoujo and many fans in general found Itsuomi creepy cuz of that and I'm like bruhh. Usui from Maid Sama wouldn't have survived if it got released recently😭 So I would've preferred if they made Itsuomi an actual red flag yandere.

Like that guy HAD it in him, I swear😭😭 And Yuki would've been such an amazing fmc in a yandere story. Innocent/ sorta naïve, but also in love with her yandere who admires such traits of her. It would've been perfect.

Manga: [A Sign Of Affection].

Good grief nobody is forcing you to read or translate this 😭 just leave or put your 500+ word translator note about how this isn’t a healthy consensual BL at the END OF THE CHAPTER.

The translator thought this would be a BDSM story but you think they would’ve gotten the hint by chapter 2.

These are from the first 3-4 chapters btw. It was just so annoying and egregious. GROW TF UP.

OooOooHhhhhHhh NoooOoooOoo the man who chained him to a wall and beat him up isn’t a good romantic partner??? Who could’ve guessed???? Thank you holy translator for righting this misconception otherwise I would want to date him IRL /s

Sauce:

1. My Deepest Secret

2. Phantom Whispers

3. For Your Murder

4. Classmate

5. Dreaming Freedom/ Free in Dreams

6. Olgami

7. Bunker Days/ Days in the Bunker

Came across this manga (Hana Himeru Kimi no Meteor) through a post here on reddit.

After reading this in 3h (and re-read it 4 times already) I suddenly realised that I was completely obsessed with it. The art is just stunning and the love story is absolutely perfect. I am not really fond of vampire shit but this manga has my all heart.

This specific part happens around chapter 24 and it's just perfection.

There are some spicier parts throughout the manga and I am absolutely obsessed with it.

This post serves only as an appreciation post of this manga, that I consider absolutely perfect, so far. I really think this should have an anime adaptation, tbh. Its just so so beautiful.

Ahhh!!! If you have recs of good spicy (or smutty) manga, feel free to share.

Thx.

Historical/wuxia transmigration selfcest danmei c-novel.

Basic Premise: MC is the stereotypical CEO who transmigrates into an ancient Chinese setting where he looks identical to the stereotypical tyrant emperor ML. The MC tries to be a good emperor and stabilize the crumbling empire while the ML, a puppet emperor poisoned since childhood, seems to just mess around.

The two engage in schemes both for and against each other, often on the brink of killing or betraying the other, while falling more and more in love.

Some of the best parts:

- Very interesting take on selfcest

- They are switches, the MC and ML both top and bottom

- The MC has depression which he acknowledges and has gotten treatment for and the ML and others are very respectful about it (this does get somewhat ruined by the later parts where the author >!sensationalizes some mental illness for the drama)!<.

- Pretty chill crossdressing

- There's a lot of good reveals, the MC is an unreliable narrator and that works (for the most part) because he's understandably in a completely different time period and place with no background or support. Even a lot of the "allies" he made thought he was the ML.

- Actually clever MC and ML, when often it's one of the other or we're only told they're clever and never shown it.

- Black flag yandere 4 black flag yandere, scum 4 scum, they both get worse and worse as it goes. The ML tries to confine MC, the MC debates destroying the empire so he can basically keep ML like a pet, the ML gets jealous of the MC looking at his own reflection....

Now, I can't fully recommend this without a few disclaimers: near the end it jumps the shark (and contradicts earlier details) in a way that made this go from me expecting to add it to my top 10 k-novels ever to me being a bit lukewarm (the very end does get better with some balls to the wall wildly dark shit). MC is awesome, but >!feels like two completely different characters, both of which I would love, I'm just upset to lose the one version to get the other!<. As mentioned above, the amazing treatment of mental illness early on gets ruined at the end. And some VERY IMPORTANT details to the main story are put in the side stories.

If you like black flag yanderes, I still highly suggest you try this one out, most of the novel is still very good. This is fully fan translated.

Warnings: Violence, partner violence, child abuse, torture, some dubcon (arguably noncon, but they're both so fucked up and into each other it's hard to say that), homophobia, gu (aka bugs/parasites), cannibalism mentions (MC and ML considering eating the other), blood drinking, suicide, war....

Spoiling this scene from a fanfic I’m working on for the game “ The Kid At The Back”

Guys, I can't get him out of my head. I love everything about him - his personality, the art style, literally everything. The author made him so attractive, even when he’s being a total black flag😱
My biggest wish is for him to become a real person by the end and just be happy with the FML. They need to be together. Am I the only one obsessed with him? 👀

6 main chapters. 3 side story chapters. Completed.

Older male uke and younger seme.

Black flag ML and >!bad ending for the MC.!<
