Looking for manga with cute BPD girls, ideally as the romantic interest.Pic related.
>>1563136>cute BPD girls
>>1563136>BPD girlsJust explain the personality type you are looking for in layman's terms, rather than using psychological terminology. anons will misunderstand what you are looking for.
>>1563141I guess somewhere between depressed and manic, clearly somewhat unstable. They tend to have abandonment issues which lead to intense passionate relationships that collapse just as quickly. Also usually hallmarked by having poor self-worth and suicidal tendencies.Obviously that's all too specific, but I'm looking for that vibe. Mentally fragile/ill and in need of someone who's willing to see past that. Considering the more serious nature of this, I'd expect to only really see these kinds of characters in seinen but I could be wrong.
>>1563162Just to add on to this, they tend to self-sabotage their own relationships due to the aforementioned self-esteem issues and hurt the people around them along with themselves.
>>1563136Does it have to be japanese in origin or are you ok with manhwa and webcomics?
>>1563162So what you are looking for includes but isn't limited to yandere?
>>1563184I'd much prefer manga, but I'll at least look at the others>>1563185Yeah sort of, yandere is the cartoonishly exaggerated version of it I guess, maybe Yandere-light is closer
This one *might* count as BPD, but I only read like 20 chapters into it and it doesn't really seem like romance involved. (I will read more later just haven't gotten around to it).>Beautiful and intelligent, Somyung Gil has tirelessly strived to fulfill her mother's vision of the perfect daughter. However, when her less-than-perfect younger brother is tragically found drowned in a river, doubts plague Somyung's heart. She begins to suspect that their mother might be responsible for the unspeakable act. From then on, her paramount goal becomes escaping her mother's grasp, while all her mother wants is for Somyung to experience the perfect life she herself was denied. Will Somyung ever truly find her freedom? https://www.webtoons.com/en/drama/like-mother-like-daughter/episode-1/viewer?title_no=5734&episode_no=1
There might be romance later, but Idk since I haven't gotten that far yet.One interesting thing the series did was how it depicted the mother from the daughter's viewpoint. Her skin looks like she's made of static. I posted a pic.It's a good series, which is why I am recommending it.
Another one that might be of interest is Hand Jumper. The MC is a massive control freak who has limited time rewind powers.https://www.webtoons.com/en/thriller/hand-jumper/ep-1-beginning-of-the-end/viewer?title_no=2702&episode_no=1Synopsis:>Sayeon Lee despises Aberrants. They wreak havoc on society with their strange, unthinkable powers. It's just too bad she happens to be an Aberrant herself! Forced to fend for her life in the deadly Aberrant Corps, she's determined to make it to the top, and her unusual ability should help her -- if she can figure out how to use it in time.Also not really much romance so far, though some stuff has been teased.
>>1563189>>1563193I'll take a look at these, they look neat
This was one of my favorites.https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/deathsitter/deathsitter/viewer?title_no=293285&episode_no=1Synopsis:>A deadbeat drug addict with seemingly supernatural luck gets a job babysitting the daughter of the city's local grim reaperThis could be a closer fit, and there may be romance (depending on how you see it). Hard to explain why it might fit without big spoilers.Art style starts off more cartoony in the early parts, but soon shifts to a more manga like style that you see in the logo (somewhere around the time the other protagonist shows up).

>>1563205Sick, thank you
>>1563162That really reminds me of the two main characters from "Hello From Halo Head". https://halo-head.com/comic/welcome-to-halo-head/It's got it's lighthearted moments, but it starts off kinda dark. Pic related is bonus art of them.There's a few caveats. The thing is it's not really manga style, unless you count the kinda chibi characters. (or maybe you can vaguely compare it to older doraemon or astro boy style stuff). Aside from the main 2 girls, they're all anthropomorphic characters as well. It's definitely animal crossing inspired.
>>1563194>>1563206Tell us what you think of the recommendations later.>>1563162I've read darker manga and seinen but I guess I don't read enough of it to think of any recommendations from that medium
>>1563162Come to think of it, what you are looking for kinda reminds me of Misa Amane from Death Note, but its been a while since i watched it so I don't know how well it would actually fit.
>>1563214She actually is the perfect one funny enough, but I've already seen/read Death Note and its also not particularly romance focused. I want some of that "I can fix her" kind of plot lol
You might like "Everyone Loves Her". It's a Korean web manhwa. Not gonna spoil it, but it centers around the MC who is a girl with the power of teleportation. She seems to be the only person with superpowers. It's good.https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/d3bobh9/everyone-loves-herhttps://www.anime-planet.com/manga/everyone-loves-herYou'll have to find a fan translation, since it's in korean and there's currently no official (English) translations. It seems like the story has completed with 55 chapters + the epilogue. I haven't read those last 2 pages yet though.She's more bloodthirsty (and coldhearted) than most of the other characters mentioned in the thread. Might be kinda sociopathic or psychopathic.
>>1563215This one kinda reminded me of death note. She's more like light than misa, but she's also quite impulsive at times.>>1563219>It seems like the story has completed with 55 chapters + the epilogue. I haven't read those last 2 pages yet though.And it seems like the fan translators haven't caught up to those last 2 pages yet.
