Ummm the title say it all. I'm looking for BL or yaoi with shoujo art to it. It seem there lot of BL art are manly even in their teenage days. I just like to read BL art that have shoujo art to it because the boys are to cute.
It doesn't have to look like shoujo art but they have to look really youthful looking
that why I want something close to shoujo art. No age-gap please.
Something like this: Ashita Hare Nochi Inu Youbi, Oujito, C no Itami,
Golden Days, Donuts Tsuushin, Hard Romantica, Kagi, Shinkuu Yuusetsu, Maigo
If don't know any you can give me some slashy/bromance/bl hints, doesn't matter if there het romance or not.
And other thing is....Why is there so many BL/yaoi art so manly? I don't get it 😐

I have read some of Minami's works. ^^
Glamorous Lip does look like like one but not fan of age-gap. :\ But thanks for helping me.

OH I didn't know she did Kuroshitsuji. I don't really like her for add to many fanservice between ciel sebastian. And it look she more in to age-gap. I think the only thing I will read from her is RustBlaster.

Hm..I'm not sure if I'm gonna get it right, but here I go..
Komatta Toki ni wa Hoshi ni Kike! (maybe check out her other works if it's shoujo-ish enough)
Silver Diamond (slashy; maybe check out her other works)
And what do you mean manly?? Like which series?

I think chiaci's recs are perfect for you, so yep, I second them.^^
(actually I haven't really started Silver Diamond but I really love Suigura's other manga Koori no Mamono no Monogatari. Check that out as well. 😛 )
Then there is La Esperanca. It's just shounen-ai, but sweet, and very shoujo; big-eyed cuties and glittering sparkles everywhere. x'D (It was actually a bit too much for me but the story was nice and I liked it^^)

Weird...imo in most BL the guy on top looks manly, but the other one is so feminine that I have to keep reminding myself that it's a guy and not a girl. Blegh! 🤢
But anyway; Sono Yubi Dake ga Shitteiru and other manga that have been illustrated by Odagiri Hotaru will definitely suit your tastes.
Maybe G Senjou no Neko. I haven't read it in ages so my recollections are a little hazy.
Takarai Rihito's boys aren't manly-looking, if memory serves.
Abe Miyuki and Sugiura Shiho are mangaka whose works you should look out for.
And also -
Hanamatsuri (I think you'll especially like this one), Asakurake no Hitobito, Eerie Queerie!, Oka no Ue no Rakuen, Thomas no Shinzou (sort of old-fashioned, though), Tokyo Babylon, Tsuki to Mizu no Yoru, Gakkou no Sensei, Yasashii Ryuu no Koroshikata, Pure Blood, X/1999 and RG Veda (subtext only), Ciao, My Darling.
Most BL (yaoi) is really shoujo-y. (well, it IS shoujo... and josei) It is meant for women after all. There is MANY, but I can name a few.
stuff by
EIKI Eiki (meh)
YAMATO Nase (girly for sure!)
MATOH Sanami (not much)...
HIGURI You (yeah)
YAMANE Ayano (manly characters yet girly art)
GOKURAKUIN Sakurako (lots of shoujo-yaoi smut)
AMASAKI Yoshimi (Yes)
Boys' Love titles I love with shoujo art
Love Recipe by Kirico Higashizato
Acid Flower by Yoshimi Amasaki (on hiatus)
Yellow by Makoto Tateno
Sensitive Pornograph by Ashika Sakura (YAOI SMUT!) Has an anime too. Author also known as Sakurako Gokurakuin. <3
