Am looking for snarky ukes!

As said in the title, I am looking for a yaoi manga where the uke is snarky, a.k.a. snide and sarcastic, instead of the seme. Is there such a thing? Because that would be awesome- and hot, in my opinion- SO! If none of you would mind terribly to post a rec or point me out to the right direction I would be oh, so grateful! 😁

Lots o' love!
A 😛

Junjou Romantica The main character is so bratty. In a good way, of course.
Kyou kara Ma no Tsuku Jiyuugyou! Wolfram is quite a prissy character.
Rabu Kue The main character is a bit of a spaz when it comes to romance.
Aijin Incubus An incubus puts this uke in his place.
Blood Honey Both of the vampires in this one are quite blunt.
Nekrateholic Another vampire who is not afraid to be honest.
Wild Rock In the second story the uke is quite a fussy and snarky character.

Huh... I keep recommending the same manga. I need to read more titles! I'm going to have to stick around to see what others suggest.

Oni ni Hatsujou, seriously. If you like a side-dish of violence with your snark.

A Talkative Fitting Room - very subtly snarky, but trust me, he is.

Love Control stars a very composed, very cool uke who can utterly cut down his seme with a well-timed, sophisticated jibe. I especially loved his 'critique' of his seme's kissing abilities, which I remember to this day for the sheer "OUCH!" factor.

Pretty much all of Natsume Isaku's ukes, esp. Dash!, Doushiyoumo Nai Karedo, Twinkling Stars Dial and No Color.

Ihoujin Etrange, I guess? The little blond pseudo-underaged one...

A lot of Takahashi Yuu's ukes, as well... Most notably the prince's brother from The Devil in the Suit series and (possibly, can't quite recall) the uke from Obocchama ni wa Wakarumai. I do remember that he snarked with the seme, but not whether he was snarky by default.

Ishihara Satoru likes 'em spunky, too, as evidenced by The Boys With Tomorrow to Conquer, Yarouze! and Kimi Shiruya.

Same goes for Tsunoda Ryoku, among whose ukes number a bunch of cool, snarky and utterly sexy businessmen, like in Fill Your Heart With Love, Where Did Love Go?, Double-Duty Secretary! and Honya-san de Go!... Unf. I love me some businessmen.

The uke from Green Peace at least starts out sarcastic and disillusioned...

But I Love You For All That has a bossy and not exactly sarcastic, but definitely not candy-floss uke, either.

And then there's I Hate You!! But it's not true..., Henai Prince, and a bunch of others that I can't recall right now, but will tell you about if I do!

Edit: Tentatively Lovers and Love is Hard! probably count, too, for varying definitions of "snark".

Thanks a buch for your suggestions, everybody! REALLY appreciate it. I've fallen in love with Junjou Romantica, The Tyrant Falls In Love, and Takahashi Yuu's work. JUST FREAKIN' AWESOME. 😁

OO, and hollyyivy, what I mean by snark is an uke with an attitude. You know, tough, mischeivous, sarcastic, un-Buddha-esque smiles, smartasses...etc. Eheheh, what can I say? I never was one for bouquets and hearts.

Aaanyways, Love ya guys a bunches? :}

I happen to love them too, as far as I´m concerned they are the only ones that are interesting hehe
I would recommendDakenai Jikan or Junai no seinen (although the drawing is... weird). Both of them are by FUJISAKI Kou.
Kawaii Akuma has a pretty snarky uke, specially in the second part: Itoshii Akuma.
Also Kiss wa Ichinichi Sando Made!?, Family Border, U Don´t Know Me, UGH, Totally Captivated (this last ones are more widely known).

Hope you like them
