All of these are Shoujo, there isn’t a single shounen piece in here. These can vary from fantasy Shoujo to action Shoujo. They are not all romantic in nature. None of these are one-shots either, though some are more short than others. Please enjoy these and I hope you find some interesting things in here. I’ve read all of these and loved them so I’d be honored if you’d do the same.

Only manga with kanojo in the title...(I cheated on some of them)

Part 2 of a list of animated adaptations, of which if they were given, they would possibly shake up social networks for some other reason.

More transgender girls and women in manga. Some are headcanons- those are indicated by question marks.

Waalex11's Recommendations of Underrated Manga.

... My personal list of critically great underrated completed manga that are worth reading.

Waalex11's Recommendations of Popular Manga.

... My personal list of critically great popular completed manga that are worth reading.

manga with things like cross dressing, important characters who are trans/nonbinary and gender bending.

(i havent read every one of these so if i made a mistake with what i wrote about them please tell me)

Gender-bending (sex changing through supernatural methods) characters who turn out to like their new gender and come out as transgender. Some are headcanons- those are indicated by question marks.

Transgender manga without official translations but have (at least partial) fan translations in English. Some of my trans labels are headcanons- those are indicated by question marks.
Organized roughly by release order in Japan.

(My definition of a trans manga is one that has a main trans character. Them being transgender may or may not be a big impact on the story.)

this interest stack contains any manga with one/multiple queer characters, it doesnt have to be explicitly stated for me to include it in this stack, some of them are only implied. i tried to include only manga that i think are decent as well

Collection of romance manga that i have not included on my other stack, they come with many themes, those being atleast one of those:

- More comedy moments than romance.
- So dramatic it'll linger on your mind for a long time.
- So weird you'll re-read the same panel lot of times.
- Erotica.
- Fantasy themed.
Includes also manga with small amount of chapters (publishing & completed).
