Incest in manga

Right, I'm looking for any manga that deals seriously with incest. NOT hentai, please! What I'm looking for is a manga with an actual story and real characterization -- something along the lines of Koi Kaze.
I don't care if the manga is shoujo or shounen, josei or seinen, yaoi or yuri. The main thing is that it should try to understand the complications arising from an incestuous relationship (stepcest included). The manga may or may not contain actual incestuous content (e.g. sex), but it must at the very least contain incestuous feelings harbored by one of the characters.
Once again, please do not recommend anything that only has a hentai value. I'm currently working on an essay about the fictional depiction of incest in Japanese media, and manga is one of the mediums I'm covering. So you can understand why I'm looking for something that treats incest as something more than just a kink. Kink is easy enough to find; what I'm having a problem with is finding actual stories that deal with this theme.
When recommending a manga to me, please list the title and the type of incest (e.g. brother/sister, father/brother-in-law, stepmother/son). Scanslated manga titles would be preferred!
So far, I've only found these mangas that deal with incest in detail:
Koi Kaze (brother/sister)
Spoiled Within Our World (brother/brother twincest)
My Name is Nero (mother/son)
Tsumi Ni Nureta Futari (brother/sister)
Into Your Heart Through the Door (brother/brother stepcest)
Lovesick (father/daughter stepcest)
Angel Sanctuary (brother/sister)
Lament of the Lamb (brother/sister)
Does anyone have any other suggestions? I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

I can think of several...
Kodocha (orignally Kodomo no Omocha)
the main character was born from niece-uncle incest
step brother-sister relationship, and for a while they think they might have the same father & thus be half siblings
Miyuki, Yoru Made Matenai, Crossroad and The Devil Does Exist all have a step brother-sister relationships, and Jinbe has a step father-daughter relationship. In Itadakimasu the heroine falls for her ex-husband's younger brother.
Desire Climax
I'm not sure who's related to who in reality, but right now it looks like the heroine's in mutual love/lust with one half brother & has another half brother who's in love/lust with her.
The heroine falls for the son of the guy she's engaged to.
I'm sure there are more. Step-sibling romance is pretty common, probably because it puts the characters in close proximity without having them be actually blood-related. (And I swear, I don't seek these out, I just read a LOT, take a look at my lists if you doubt! 🤣 )

Angel Sanctuary is the only one i know. I didn't get pass the first chapter. The thought of incest turns my stomach.

Yeah, I didn't get far in Angel Sanctuary either. 🤢
Actual blood-related incest creeps me out; even incest between steps who grew up together as though they were blood-related has a big "ick" factor for me.
I don't mind the step-sibiling stuff, as long as they're older before they met so it's not like they really grew up as siblings.
Step-parent/child stuff...hrm....if it's done well, they met when the kid was older, and it's been a while since the end of the relationship with the actual parent...it only creeps me out a little... 🤣

Oh right, I forgot about Hot Gimmick, that's got adopted-sibling romance (sort of).
Drat, I had another one to add but now I can't remember what it was. 😔

How about Saiyuki? Now I'm definitely not talking about all of Saiyuki, but...
In volume 4, it's revealed that one of the characters was in a relationship with his sister, who he had not seen his entire life. He merely knew of her existence. He had grown up in a separate orphanage from her, alone with no real attachments to anything or anyone, so when he first met his sister he fell in love (or something along those lines ^^'''). His overall past was very sad, but it seemed like he really loved his sister, and not just in a brotherly way. If you get a chance to look at the Tokyopop published edition, scan through to the 19th chapter and read the 3rd and 4th page. That about says it all ^^ (So kawaiii!!! >.<) Most of the first page of the fourth volume is a good example too, along with parts of the sixth volume of Saiyuki 😃
I don't really mind the whole incest thing, it's kinda like the whole "I guess as long as they love each other that way" thing. But the thought of me getting with my brother or sister is sickening 🤢
Oh yeah, and waaay to get waaay off topic people 😀 XD One of the mods is bound to say something >.>...
