Looking for....

Hi ;D I'm looking for something that has some BL, but not to the point where there's yaoi sex scenes. I would prefer if there was family involved. Best examples would be Anitsuu! and Hinatama.
Also I prefer a softer art style much like Hinatama (so I would avoid most typical shoujo, but if you do post a shoujo I will at least look at it before I decide), and I would prefer that they be young (College/High school or younger).

(I'm sorry if this is not what you asked for, I don't know if you want boy x boy or wants a shoujo that has a BL feeling... I only posted BL mangas with boy x boy relationship, because I think that's what you asked for...?)
Slow Starter (Ichikawa Kei), school setting and BL genre, only kisses... IF I REMEMBER RIGHT (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and Sannin Gurashi, family setting and BL genre (and only kisses, again: if I remember right). If I remember right too (oh, stupid memory) Mizu no Haru (school), Bokura no Negai (family) and Shinkuu Yuusetsu (school) are also like that. Chou ni Naru Hi BL one-shots are great! You could also try... Junketsu Drop and Rin!, but the first one has a 2-page sex scene and the second has a handjob scene, but both are really good, so...

*No sex.
**Only a bit of sex.

Family feeling rite? You can find it plenty on Abe Miyuki's mangas like Super Lovers and Komatta Toki ni wa Hoshi ni Kike!. They're an awesome read 😀
