since Idk much about the three you mentioned I wont call you boring haha. But oyasumi punpun itself sounds adorbs. Thank you for the recs ?
Punpun is not adorable... not at all :blob_teary:

I'll say this much about it: it's a hardcore coming of age drama that touches on a lot of heavy themes, mixing brutal realism with the surreal. It can be hard to parse at times, but when it hits, it hurts like hell.

I definitely recommend it if you think you're in the right headspace though.

I like reading stuff with romance in it so fair warning about these. I have a lot more recommendations that are uploaded on a certain site but most of my favorite stuff tends to be romance.

Sigrid. The female MC is borderline autistic and has a negative EQ at the start of the story. Gradually, she figures out how to make friends and hooks up with the ML but outside that, she's a badass warrior who is one of the only Aura Sword Masters in the story. The manhwa is also a prequel to Sica Wolf which is a much more fluffy story. Sigrid isn't finished being translated yet, though.

Bring the Love. Art style is unique but the interactions between the characters make up for how long it takes to grow on a person. And it's set in Europe before the Industrial Revolution but after the Medieval period. The main couple are the heads of their respective houses and get married for political reasons, just the male lead is already in love with the female lead. It also has non-straight characters with at least one gay couple and several openly bisexual characters.

Depths of Malice. The MC is not a good person. In fact, the whole thing is about her eliminating everyone who gets in her way. Including deciding that she will murder her newborn brother if he grows up to threaten her. It's got some pretty dark elements and has a few chapters with smut (lightsabers and white fog). Plus, her love interest is just as messed up as she is.

Beware the Villainess. I can't even really begin to explain this one but it's almost like a spoof of the "transmigrated into the villain" stories. It's just gold. Especially the main character's maid who is loyal but won't do anything unless she gets paid or gets time off for it. Also the art is pretty damn gorgeous.

I've not been in the right headspace since 5th grade but gobble down these like dinner. I can handle it DW ??

Those aren't necesserily my favorites, but I like them. You can try Ramen Aka Neko, Underworld Restaraunt(webtoon), The way of the Househusband, Horimiya, Bokuyaba. Saotome Senshu, Hitakakusu, Tomo-chan Is a Girl!, Sesuji wo Pin! to ~Shikakou Kyougi Dance-bu e Youkoso~. These three have some action, but are lighthearted. You can also try Slam Dunk, it is goated and one of my favorites. It has even more action than the previous entries though.
Watching tomo chan rn.. halfway through it and it's ADORABLE ?❤️

It's not really my favorite but here try "Navillera: like a butterfly" it's a good manhwa that I'd recommend.
