Taking our number-one spot on this list is a manga with broad appeal that manages to mix together action, ecchi, and serious (but not overtly heavy-handed) discussions of gender and sex.
From the famously ecchi mangaka of Black Cat and To Love Ru comes another romantic comedy fantasy that’s loaded with fan service and lewdness in all the right ways — and already has an anime confirmed for a 2023 release!
Ayakashi Triangle features Matsuri, an exorcist who tries to defeat ayakashi — evil spirits. During a battle to save his childhood friend, Suzu, he is cursed by the King of Ayakashi and is forced to live as a girl until he can break his curse!
Praise for Ayakashi Triangle extends to its depiction of sexual orientation and romantic attraction that extends beyond sex or gender. Despite being turned into a girl, Matsuri and Suzu’s romantic feelings for each other are still growing strong, while Suzu grapples with notions of being queer since she’s attracted to Matsuri regardless of whether he’s a boy or girl.
And as we mentioned earlier, Yabuki is known for his ecchi illustrations, with the print versions of his works containing fully uncensored nudity — and boy, is there a lot of nudity in Ayakashi Triangle, although it’s worth noting that only the physical Seven Seas Entertainment volumes are uncensored (Viz digital versions will be censored).
Get caught up on the manga before the anime debuts next year, when Ayakashi Triangle releases this November!
