I'm looking for a manga where multiple males and multiple females are romantically/sexually involved with each other. (NOT to be confused with love polygon or cheating, where characters hide their feelings and actions; I want characters to openly admit their feelings and resolve with polyamory.

Yaoi, Yuri, or Bisexual are okay, as long as heterosexual developemnt got plenty of screentime. Hentai, Smut, and non-h are all okay with me. Please don't recommend harem series where only one character get all the attention.

Futari to Futari - only manga I've read with such. Not my thing. No het though.

Honeymoon Salad, but thats the outcome of the series rather than the content.

The same author also had a series more or less as you reqested, but it still kind of looks more like cheating...
Anyway, that series is named Double Marriage.

Uh... I'm not really sure if I get what you mean. Are you looking for multiple pairs of couples? Or a very complicated web where everyone is connected to everyone, basically... some very weird harem? Or, something like love triangles but with more ppl?

________________

I was going to say Honeymoon Salad also, but like jahu said It's more of the end product than the whole series.

I think the tag Polygamy may help.

Really the only thing I came across that's close to an open relationship or poly relationship is the manga above.
Wait and Yomeiro Choice but again it's like Honeymoon Salad

I've read Honeymoon Salad before. It's not exactly what I'm looking for. It deals with the females getting over their jealousy. but not the male, and he came off as a hypocrite to me, pushing the females into commitment with him, while he himself wasn't committed, and never realised it. Ultimately their relationship remains a closed one while I'm looking for an open/semi-closed relationship of a group of people of mixed gender.

Double Marriage sounds like what I'm looking (with the 2nd man and the 2nd woman coming into the picture, and implicit potential that more will come), though there's only 1 chapter translated and the description, so I can't tell.


Yomeiro Choice is a harem where characters are all two-dimensional and dehumanized into archetypes. Not what I'm looking for.



As long as at least 2 men and 2 women are involved with another. The actual inner dynamics of their relationship can be diverse (whether the 2 males are also attracted to each other, one woman favor one man over the other, one man got jealous, etc...) and they will have to overcome those issues, staying polyamorous, or fail to and break up, going back to monoamory.

nah, its not complicated love triangle - i think he means theres no drama, because everyone is so accepting of each others love. a non-monogamous society will have that probably

choco strawberry vanilla by dolce psycho - a yaoi manga of what i believe to be a polygamous relationship between the three male leads

Honestly, I'm quite shocked to see not a single good recommendation was named, and this thread has been dead for 3 years I was really curious about the exact same inquiry as the OP, Google showed this thread as the #1 result. Looking through the rest didn't reveal much either, which is kinda pissing me off. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not some huge proponent for polyamorous relationships or ethics in modern society; I've been happily married for 7 years now, and although I've mentioned to my wife I wouldn't really care if she had a boyfriend on the side in our earlier years, we ended up staying monogamous (she claims I took the fun out of infidelity by being so carefree). But seriously With all the smut and gore and rape and unspeakable content I run into everyday, this is the one topic that's avoided like a plague? Something about that just really bugs the hell out of me. Hell, Legend of Korra and Always Human by Walking North, both of which are Western by category, are far more subversive and inspiring than any manga I've read as of the last god knows how many years going now. Sorry for making an account just so I can rant about an old thread and my loss of faith in humanity.

Well there's a bunch of good straight up harem mangas like Yomeiro Choice, but if you want a real polygamy manga, read Ore no Yome wa Aitsu no Tsuma. It's a little weird.

Well, to publish a manga You need readers and to translate it into english you need enough motivated people among those readers.

"Two and two" has polyamory but it's full yuri. No het at all

I would bet you anything that no-one has ever written such a manga. And that for the same reason as why there's only one man in every harem story. Men are very possessive of our women


For polygamy, try Hare Kon. http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=111670

There's this: Haitoku wa Amaku Mushibamu, it's smut and it's polyandry (a pair of twins and a woman). As well as this hentai: Take on Me. I would love to read/see more manga that would have a VERY open relationship too. And a harem/reverse harem that does not end monogamously. But alas, one can dream right?

Hmmm. I read Take on Me in my high school years, 18+ scenes aside I remember the romantic aspects were also inspiring. This explains some things

"Lick me, like me" is a manhwa, webtoon or something of the sort on Tappytoon about a polyamorous relationship between three males. It's not cheating, and no one is upset about it, the guy just loves both of them and they have threesomes lol.

It's a weird story and tbh kiiiind of unsettling at times but overall nice.
