Stories that make u feel good after, nothing too dense. Mostly romcoms

Sousou no Frieren is on hiatus.

Here is a list of mangas that should appeal to old farts like me, who are too old to find fun in shonen characters getting stronger, cliché fantasy or in vanilla school romance tropes.
The main drive is that the manga should have some personality, with decent and properly written characters, laid-back humor, an interesting context and / or a subtle story. Good art and page layout are also appreciated. No violence porn or excessive fan service either, I like authors to focus on something else than these simple devices, although I'm not against them at very small doses when they serve the story. The manga may have been adapted in anime or not, I only address the mangas here.
There are probably some spoilers in my comments so skip them if you're worried about that.
EDIT : Since I reached the MAL 50 limit, I'm going to create a Take 2 of this Interest Stack. Check it out if you liked this one.

This is a list of the Viz Signature, Viz Media, and Shonen Sunday (excluding any Shojo/Josei in the Signature line) imprint manga that have been published physically in English (so it doesn't include any digital-exclusives that would be found on Manga+ or SJ app). This also doesn't include any of Viz's Shonen Jump imprint titles.

I got annoyed that someone said Viz release more Shojo than Shonen, so I made this list to put into perspective total Shonen Jump (and now Shonen Sunday and Viz Signature) releases vs the already existing Shojo Beat release interest stacks

Not dealing with Light Novels here either

I've left off a bunch of Junji Ito's anthologies since they include both shojo and seinen manga in the anthologies

We believe in short haired tomboy supremacy in this household.

And, reject the losing heroine tropes as well as tomboy erasure.
