I enjoyed every book i read by Yoshio Osaki when I was in middle school precisely because his stories felt like it was written with solely male audiences in mind. To the best of my memory all the protagonists in his books were men and their love interests were like moe characters but with a sufficient amount of depth and sufficiently well written. The stories were all melancholic too albiet they were a bit melodramatic but I enjoyed that aspect of it too. Kinda felt romantic. And his prose is very explicit in the sex scenes so yeah insanely fun read if youre a guy.

Unfortunately i dont think there are any english translations of his books but look up pilot fish, adiantum blue, and quatre septembre
