As the world of anime and manga grows, it also pulls along other relevant sectors, as we have seen with the Manhwa and the Manhua. First, it’s anime, as most people know about them; then, as an Otaku, the next stage would be to watch the manga since it is way ahead in the story. Then you will develop to even migrate to the Manhua and other publications. In this post, we will be looking at the Top Rated Doujinshi by users as one of the subgenres of publications gaining popularity.
For those who are new to Doujinshi or are hearing it for the first time. Doujinshi is the Japanese term for self-published printworks, and it can include manga, novels, and even magazines. As we know, most popular manga are published by different companies like the Shonen Jump.
But we have other subcategories where individuals get to publish their own works, and that is where the Doujinshi comes in. For those who are hard-core fans of these publications. They know that you will likely come across a good story even though its recognition will be limited to the low advertisement scale for self-published print works.
So we will be looking at the top-rated Doujinshi that you should check out if you are interested in such publications. Obviously, most stories have attracted their small fandom, and of course, once a story gains a bit of popularity, then it means that it is good enough to give a read. The top-rated Doujinshi by the user currently ranks in the following ascending order:
Hidoku Shinaide Dj: 975 Users
Also known as Treat Me Gently, Please Dj Don’t Be Gentle Please, is written and illustrated by Yonezou Nekota. It ran from 2006 and managed to publish several chapters, with 10 volumes released. This Doujinshi is about Takashi Nemugasa, who studies at an elite high school but was at the risk of losing his scholarship due to his grades.
He tried to cheat in exams but was caught by the school’s womanizing playboy Hideyuki Maya who blackmailed him into having a sexual relationship in exchange for not reporting him. Over time, Maya discovers that he is attracted to Nemugasa and does his best to support him while Nemugasa slowly realizes that he may return Maya’s feelings for him as well.
Succubus Stayed Life: 983 Users
with the rating of 7.72 comes Succubus Stayed life, which takes place after the protagonists of the show have been living an uneventful life. He finds himself in a situation he absolutely was not prepared for. He now has a succubus in his life that he has to constantly attend to, and he seems to have developed a liking for it.
Oide Yo! Mizuryuu Kei Land: 1 028 Users
With a related anime already released and finished, Oide Yo! Mizuryuu Kei Land Doujinshi is cataloged in the Hentai genres, with the manga rounding to about six chapters. The anime that is based on Doujinshi has also generated enough popularity under the production of Lune Pictures studio.
The rating it received is 7.67, so this puts it high on based on the users. So this rating might change over time with the new Doujinshi being published. Even so, that might take a while, given that once a Doujinshi makes it to the top, it is difficult for the new ones to replace it instantly, and it would usually take a long time for that to happen.
Mousou Elektel Dj – Shinaide + Elektel: 1 432 Users
Rated at 7.68, Musou Eledtel Dj Doujinshi follows the life of Maya and Nemu, who are high school friends from Hidoku shinai de.

Imaizumin Chi Wa Douyara Gal no Tamariba ni Natteru Rashii: 1 465 Users
Replacing totally captivated with a rating of 8.15 comes Imazumin Chi Wa Douyara Gal no Tamariva ni Natteru Rashii Doujinshi. It is still ongoing and has made its debut in August 2019. So there is still more to come as far as Imazumin Doujinshi is involved meaning that it might be a good Doujinshi because it already has a very high rating even though it is not yet finished.
It is written by Nori, while Goru is responsible for the art of this Doujinshi, and it has been rated by a lot of users as well. The world of Doujinshi is hardly dynamic because once the best work is released, then it stays with a very high rating for a while. There might be other good works to be released afterward, and they will still get high ratings which would explain why the difference in ratings is not by much.
