Fluffy BL's
Not all are 100% fluffy cuteness, but all of them are light and mostly sweet. Perfect when you don't wanna watch the typical school drama, not feeling the forced kisses and just genuinely want to watch something that makes you go "aaaw" and also makes you squeal because it's so bloody cute.
Some contain slight angst and slight hurt, but they won't leave you crying at the end.

1. Light on Me
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
It has it all, the cuteness, the dorkiness, the awkwardness, the second hand embarrassment, the pain, the overflowing adorableness and some real character development. The characters are well written, flawed in the most human way possible. It's just perfect. This made me so happy. Longer episodes too. Korea delivered
Acting: just brilliant for almost everyone. Like damn they are good
And Kang Yoo Seok. Yes they were all wonderful, but he was amazing. The shyness, the insecurities, the hesitant movement, the emotions on his face. Like boy can act with every fiber of his body.Plot in a nutshell: Tae Kyung is a loner, he eventually joins the student council where he meets the perfect boy Da On, the most precious human being on this earth Shin Woo, the greatest friend you could ever wish for Namgoong and Da On's childhood friend who not so secretly is in love with Da On which makes her act like a bish

2. A First Love Story
Korean Special - 2021, 2 episodes
Strongberry delivers, please support and watch in on the official channels (this one is on yt!)
It is just absolutely adorable. It works even being this short, but would be a total 10/10 if it was longer. This will make u cry for more. It's sweet and pure and everything you want in bl. Except length.
Plot in a nutshell: Jae Sung has enlisted in the military, Min Kyu doesn't really want him to go

3. We Best Love: No. 1 For You
Taiwanese Drama - 2021, 6 episodes
Okay Jesus lord how can anyone be that attractive, yes I'm biased because of Yu. Now that we got that out of the way, let's dive in to the shallow end. This was so cute, like damn they were adorable, my heart nearly exploded. I loved, loved, loved how they okay SPOILER ALERT right here how they were so casual about being together, like just walking hand in hand and stuff like that without having any unnecessary coming out to their friends drama or anything like that.
This was just the perfectly cute with good enough plot and good paste, also good acting, a little bit of angst due to a broken heart but they do not dwell on it for too long. They keep it real and I love it. The flow has sorta natural feel to it which is nice. (Yes I love pretty much everything about this). They do leave some things open but there's season 2 so it's not surprising.
Plot in a nutshell: Gao Shi De wants to beat Zhou Shu Yi on everything, not because he wants to win, but because that's the way Shu Yi notices him. They meet again in college where Gao Shi De manages to blackmail Zhou Shu Yi to became his page-boy, Zhou Shu Yi definitely doesn't hate it as much as he pretends to. He's just and angry ball of fluff.
There's a reason why S2 isn't on this list.

4. 30-sai made Dotei Da to Mahotsukai ni Nareru rashii
Japanese Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
This is just a feel good series, like when you just want to watch something light and sweet this is a prefect choice.
Slight angst but overall kind of fluffy. Didn't really care about the side couple, since I found Tsuge's character really annoying. It was cute tho.
Plot in a nutshell: Adachi, a kind, shy, precious human being, turns 30 and because he is still virgin he gets magical powers, he can read peoples minds by touching them. After getting used to it he realize it's actually pretty helpful as it helps him understand people more. When he touches Kurosawa he realize that they have feelings for him.

5. Ingredients
Thai Special - 2020, 21 episodes
Cute, sweet, way too short. Really nice slice of life kinda series, without any extra drama. Kinda feels like a cooking show in some parts, but in the best way possible. Slowburn. Covid is strongly present with all the hand sanitizing, masks and whatnot.
Plot in a nutshell: Tops loves to make food, Marwin loves to make music. They are roommates and it mostly just focuses on their lives inside the home. Marwin makes a youtube channel for Tops where he gets to show off his cooking/baking skills.

6. To My Star (Movie)
Korean Movie - 2021
There's a slight hurt, just a bit.
Now I really wished it had been a little longer, really need more of that fluffluff, like gosh give me that happiness.
Anyways, this was good. It did left a few things open/unexplained and took a few more twist at the end than necessary in my opinion, but it was pretty cute overall. Would have loved to see more Kim Jin Kwon but short series are short series.Warning: Flashing lights at 1h:29min mark and it goes on for a couple minutes (the flashing will slow down a lot after a minute).
Plot in a nutshell: Kang Seo Joon is an actor who has finds himself in a bit of trouble after alleged bar fighting. His manager makes him move in with Han Ji Woo, a damn good chef. Kang Seo Joon finds himself falling for the chef pretty fast.

7. You Make Me Dance (Movie)
Korean Movie - 2021
Some could say it has troublesome dynamic, I'll just leave it at that.
Plot in a nutshell: Song Shi On is a uni student majoring in dancing, Jin Hong Seok is a debt collector. Shi On has a debt to pay for the company that Jin Hong Seok works in. Eggs.
To me it was cute, it has some hurt from the past and it has some damn hurt near the end. But they are just cute most of the time.

8. Life: Love on the Line (Director's Cut)
Japanese Movie - 2020
Movie version and it also has a few added scenes (to my knowledge at least), as always, better watch the movie version since it does flow better and just brings it together more nicely.
Now this did have some heartbreak and pain, but this whole thing was just amazing. Realistic most of the time, cute, and the start when they're young ohmygod so pure and cute.
It's not fluff fluff, but it is good. I did cry, but it is good. -
9. Mr. Heart
Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
As most korean bl series, this was also really short but so sweet. But they managed to get some depth into the story and into the characters. However, being short they seemed to drop some side plots or ideas that at first seemed to have something to go on.
Plot in a nutshell. Jin Won runs, he wants to be a marathon runner but his pace is off, Sang Ha runs too, but only short distances. School coach makes Sang Ha to be Jin Won's pacemaker. They train for the marathon.
Possible triggers: Violence

10. Wish You: Your Melody From My Heart (Movie)
Korean Movie - 2021
Definitely better than the series, because it has extra scenes which explain a lot. Makes the story seem a lot more balanced and clear. It's pretty cute and chill movie, really nice music and people who actually seem to love playing.
Plot in a nutshell. Kang In Soo loves music and wants to make it his career. Sang Yi works in a record company. Sang Yi fell in love with In Soo's music. We all see where this is going right?

11. Because of You
Taiwanese Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
It's been a while since I watched this so not 100% sure if this belongs here but I'll just copy the text I wrote to my other list.
Incredible sweet and fluffy. Laughed my ass off in some parts. Only downside is, once again, it's too short, so the character development is a bit too fast and, in some parts, lacking. If you don't have a lot of time and want to watch something that makes you feel good, this is it.
Plot in a nutshell: Three bothers of a wealthy family all harbor certain amount of dislike towards their father since they all have different mothers who their father hasn't really cared that much, not to mention he probably hasn't shown much love to the sons either. The brothers aren't really close to each other either, since they are bad at expressing their actions. Enter Lin Xun, poor man who's mother made him call the father of these brothers after she died, delivering a message. Now the Father wants to find Lin Xun and promises the company to the son who finds him. Jun Cheng already had met Lin Xun so he goes to kidnap him. This plot in a nutshell is getting longer than the actual series.
TLDR: Three rich brothers are all gay and learns to love each other as well -
12. Valentine's Day / Rokkaku
Japanese Special - 2020, 1 episode

13. Kieta Hatsukoi
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Plot in a nutshell: Aoki has a crush on a girl who he thinks has a crush on Ida who thinks Aioki has crush on him.
It's so funny and cute, it has become one of my comfort series

14. Fukou-kun wa Kiss Suru Shikanai!
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
It's filled with gorgeous beings, like damn near perfection how can a human be that stunning
Also title should actually be: Mr unlucky actually had a choice not to kiss and took it.Plot in a nutshell: Mr unlucky is surprisingly unlucky and due to some misunderstandings gets to have a mr lucky by his side.
There is some emotional damage but mainly cute
