no option for only liking doujin that are written by a mangaka as a sidestory or continuation to the published manga like Miyamoto Kano and several others. sad

Isn't "I only like non-sexual doujinshi" enough for you?

I voted for heart wrenching. Funny is good too.
I got a funny feeling that the fan-girls and hentais are gonna beat us out on this one.
I don't read many myself. It'd have to be real good.
I ran across this the other day. This is for all the yaoi fan-girls, or really anyone. Really funny.

No since it could be sexual or non-sexual in nature.. that does not define it.

There are some things ill read a doujinshi for, others I just cant.
Others being the ones where I have to much respect for the characters, like inuyasha never read a dojin involving that series and hopefilly never will...
there is no option for me, I feel lonely

Doujin written as an extra story and sold as a doujin. Contains sex but it's not 'naruto characters having sex!' or any similar things. Extra story written by the mangaka of the original story to flesh out characters and story.

Don't like/read option for me. Though, by doujin, I understand stuff that's not written by the same mangaka as the manga it's related to.

And there might be rare exceptions, but mostly, they're just as crappy as most fanfic, so I stay away. Do not have the patience to dig for the only good one in a hundred.

I also don't have an option: I read doujin occassionally, and the stuff I read is all types: (hentai down to perfectly clean). I have nothing against the stuff, just not interested by a lot of it.

honestly, I dont really care for what kind of romance it is, if done right I like it all.
except platonic romance. this stuff bores the crap outta me.(I'm talking to you ah my goddes. goddamn, theres a limit to stretching out platonic relationships)
