welcome to the recs page !!
here i'll have recs based off of stuff you've already enjoyed, and a quick description of their similarities !! this page will be divided by type of media (manga, music, etc etc) ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡
both have an incredible subplot romance, awesome worldbuilding, and incredible friendships!! the stories are pretty similar too : person with a pretty cushy life gets thrown into an unfamiliar environment and learns that they are a higher power and must save the world from an evil force close to them, with the help of a hot dark-haired guy and awesome friends (including one with white hair and an association to reptiles)
both are beautifully written BL manga between a man that's hard-of-hearing and a man who's not. i hear the sunspot is a bit more angsty while love in the palm of his hand is fluffier!! i hear the sunspot is also just about college life while love in the palm of his hand's mc works in theatre
both are super duper funny light novels about men trying to get revenge by dating the guy that hurt them/their friend, and ultimately failing and falling in love with him !! A Guide on How to Fail at Online Dating is centered around gaming, while counterattack is just generally about revenge + crazy drama (and snakes for some reason too LMAO).
both are more mature BLs that involve the mc trying to get close to the ml because of his ex-gf's relationship to him, but falling in love with him instead. both also have a bit of angst and an absurd amount of drama LMAO
incredibly heartfelt queer manga that WILL make you sob !! both have such a good cast and somehow happy endings !!
both are super funny christmas movies about kid(s) left by themselves!! both are also absolutely iconic and classics!! unaccompanied minors needs so much more attention its so so so good
both are incredibly funny 2000's shoujo anime with some of the most dated humour ever. both also have a unique mc in a reverse harem with a bunch of horrible losers that people find charming for some reason LMAO!! both have a lot (and i mean a LOT) of flaws but are still loved due to the awesome vibes and awesome mc!! i will say that the wallflower is a bit more slice-of-life and lower budget so the plot goes everywhere lolol
wholesome BLs about inexperienced men in their 30's finding love in a popular coworker !! old fashion cupcake has a bit of an age gap and has a main plot around going to different cafes as well
awesome girl groups with some of the best discographies ever!! if you like older red velvet's more mature rnb stuff like me then you'll definitely enjoy baby v.o.x. i recommend their album "why" !! my fav red velvet song is "automatic", which reminds me a lot of baby v.o.x's "허락"
both are really peak bgs that are known for more rnb music (altho txt has a lot of indie rock sound too)!! also txt's stick with you sounds exactly like oneus's same scent LMAO (stan txt i <3 hyukai)
free short cozy horror games about cute creatures in crazy spooky scenarios!! both of these games have amazing artstyles too!! im pretty sure birdhouse has a bit of religious horror too
incredibly addicting cozy games with awesome characters!! rune factory 4 has a lot more fantasy elements than stardew, but still has the farming and chores!! i honestly prefer rune factory to stardew since its more linear and has a pretty unique plot. im pretty sure rune factory inspired stardew too which is cool
beautifully written gothic novels with a dead character that is hauting the narrative. both also have crazy plot twists and incredible storytelling !!
