hi! i'm looking for a particular niche in romance manga/manhwa (shoujo or josei) in which the male lead: 5g3773

• is the rough/tough/scary delinquent type but is actually an innocent and pure person
• has facial hair or has ruggedly handsome looks instead of the usual pretty bishonen vibes (handsome oyaji/ossans or older men are good too! 😳)
• is basically a himbo

^ please do suggest if anything above resonates, they don't all have to be in one manga 🙂

examples:

• Mangaka to Yakuza (delinquent yakuza who is actually an idiot softie)
• As You Wish, Prince (brash himbo)
• & (hot older man with facial hair)
• Shuuden na Kankai (sweet older guy)

i would prefer fluff/romance without smut, but if the cuteness is worth it, please do suggest it as well ^^

genres i like alongside romance:

• isekai
• historical
• mafia/yakuza
• school life

thank you so much! any suggestions are extremely appreciated! 🥺❣️

Hi! I noticed that you are a new member (WELCOME!), and you might not be familiar with some of the features on this site, utilizing the Genres Search and also Categories can be super helpful is searching for series as well as asking for recommendations!

For example:
Categories via Genre Search: Genre= Check positive for Shoujo, Tags= Appearance Different from Personality + Scary Male Lead and you can also use genre search to pick various other genre and search parameters for series

For personal recommendations - its been ages since I read these, but if I correctly they might fit along the lines of what you are looking for:
Dorothy wa Gokigen Naname?

Hope the tips help and hope these series fit what you are looking for~!

Hope some is to your liking~ ^^
