Not to sound creepy or anything, but I'm looking for romances with at least a five-year age gap between the lovers. NOT ecchi or hentai or anything smutty, please!

Well, a tiny bit of sex is okay, but no more than a few tasteful panels at most. I want the focus to be on the emotions. 🙂

Some stories with at least a 5-year age gap:

Kiss
Koi Kaze (Warning: Incest!)
I Hate You More Than Anyone

Oh, and no shota or loli, thanks. That's not what I mean by an age-gap. 😔

Recommend, please! <3

This is a good thread

"I've seen a look in dogs' eyes, a quickly vanishing look of amazed contempt, and I am convinced that basically dogs think humans are nuts." -John Steinbeck

Oh, thank you! There are some good recommendations there. However, many of them feature couples with a smaller age-difference than the one I'm looking for. I'm looking for a minimum of 5 years' difference, specifically.

Still, I'm definitely having fun with that thread! 😀

Jikan wo Tomete Matteite 9 years difference.
Chocolate Cosmos student-teacher(?)
Magic the relation is very complicated.
Ibara no Ou not focus about love thought.
Otoyomegatari eight year difference but I'm not sure that the guy too shota for you. In my opinion, he's mature and not childish to can call shota.

Hoshi no koe, it's a one shot. But quite good.

Dear Mine

Ristorante Paradiso

age difference - about 30 years (minimum)

WHOA. 😮 😀 😀 😀

Thank you so much for your recommendations, Kizku, Bking, Kol and Linnil!

Linnil: That list you've given me is amazing. I haven't read any of that stuff - more reading for me!

Kizku: I'm especially awed by "Ristorante Paradiso" - seriously, thirty years? Wow! It's an embarrassment of riches! (In a weird kinda way...) 😀

Miman Renai? Guy who works for eroge company falls for a middle school girl. Guy is 29, no clue how old middle schoolers are.

Main problem is that it's only just started, so not much to read. Maybe something to pick up and become a raging fan of?

Lose - Opposite of win, to misplace something/someone. e.g. To lose your way, to lose a fight.
Loose - Opposite of tight. e.g. To have a loose screw, to loosen a jar lid.

^ Not just scanlators, but also company documents are getting it wrong now!

Oh, thanks, Perim! That's definitely enough of an age difference! And it sounds adorable... My only concern is - what is "middle school" in Japan, age-wise? This isn't loli, is it? nervous

I think she's probably no older than 15... So technically lolicon.
But there isn't anything... erm... nasy(?)
It's a really innocent manga... And aeally cute one.

I second it, Hoshi no koe and Otoyomegatari.

Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

If I had a fantasy self, it'd be a tentacle monster.

if you like age difference, read lolicons... you see 80 year old man mounting like 10 year old girls 😲

no im kidding 😀

try kurohime.....
its about this dark women magician that is wicked and saves the life of a little boy by chance, and the little boy ends up falling in love with her at first sight... he grows up to be an expert gunsman who fights for the good of justice, and also dreams to find that women that saved his life also because he fell in love with her...

also this other manga, i forgot the name but, about this little kid who saw a spiritual princess like being and tended to be attracted to her... and as he grew up, he meets her again except she has a body of a younger girl.... but mentally a legendary entity close to a goddess, but still alittle immature in terms to social concept...

I believe that this is Kannagi, but there is no real age gap in the story. She is a goddess, but she acts like she is around his age.

The only thing that I can think of is Blood Alone. The love is still in the early stages. He still sees her like a little sister for the most part, but there are some romantic feelings there as well.

Ichigo no gakkou <-- HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Glass mask OwO
Mon Seul
Miman renai
Antique romance
Ludwig kakumei

Ludwig falls in love with a princess..CENTURIES older than him XD..and a One sided romance with a Centuries old Witch

Death song <-- eventhough the guy looks young, he's actually older than you think. prolly 10 years difference between him and the heroin.

He even has a son

OH WOW, seriously guys, you're so awesome and I'm definitely following up on these! Re: Miman Renai, seems like it's safe for me. (No smut = safe, lol.)

Am very curious about Ichigo no Gakkou and Blood Alone. Thanks, Hermit-chan and Orpheus17!
