Recs if you like X-Gender, Vol. 1...

THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION LIST. Inclusion on this list doesn't necessarily mean the rep "worked" for me (as an agender person). There's just so little manga with non-cis characters that this list is literally everything I was able to think of that I've read and meets this criteria. Therefore your mileage may vary on how you feel about the rep contained in them.

I encourage folks to suggest more titles so I can add them! And so I can read them, lmao.

Books with titles that start with the most uncommon letters to begin words: X, Q, Z & J.

I wanted to join the fun in doing an alphabet challenge and am currently adding X and Z to complete my alphabet of books :) Here’s some recommendations if others want a similar challenge!

I primarily am only adding first volumes, but these are all series.

manga with trans main characters and/or about trans experiences (non-fiction). nonbinary identities are included in my definition of the trans umbrella.

creator's note: i haven't read all of these yet, so this isn't necessarily a list of recs. i just know these manga have trans mcs/non-fic authors. my personal favorites are boys run the riot, my journey to her, to strip the flesh, and after school mate, if you want some recs from a trans reader.

A list of non-erotic graphic novels with queer protagonists or queer relationships that don't hinge on anybody dying or being killed.

Books that have nonbinary main characters.

If you have time to read all of "Inuyasha" or "One Piece" or "Dragonball", congratulations. I am envious. If you want to try out some manga series without dedicating years of your life, here's some shorter suggestions.

Comics about real life queer people
