Romance manga where they are forced to live together

I just finished reading <Living Game> and watching Toradora. I found that I really like the cliche where two initial strangers are forced to live together. Is there any good romance manga that has this specific cliche? I don't like a lot of drama or heavy love triangles. I mainly focus on the slice of life, romance and comedy. DO you guys have soemthing that can scratch my itch?

Again, please no harem (ranma did this to me), group living (where multiple characters have to live together. I just want the two), heavy drama (im ok with it being there, just not crazy amount), unclear romance (need a decisive "we got together ending") and uh can you provide a reason why you might like to recommend it.

like the title says (couldnt think of a shorter way to put it

)
--I'm looking for recommendations for a romance in which the protagonists are forced to live together, and one or both of them does not like the other (or just a tsundere)- but they end up getting along and falling in love- preferably in some sort of forbidden romance.

my ideal situation would be step-siblings, however i looked through most of the "step-sibling love" tag and didnt really see anything that caught my attention (although i didnt really go through every one)

i would prefer it if it wasnt too long-- but not a oneshot :/
good art and being completed is a must

anything with prostitution, rape, smut, horror, mecha, harem or historical are deal breakers for me; but pretty much anything else is fine though.

a good example of what im looking for would be maybe something like

FamiDol!

-- i was disappointed with how short it was. the art was just fantastic and the story had so much potential.

I'm looking for a good manga where the two MCs live together. Something similar to LDK or Taiyou no Ie. I'd prefer a shoujo/romance manga, but other genres or an anime are fine too. :)

Anime
Rakudai kishi no cavalry
Sankarea

Manga
REC
Itazura na kiss
Orange Yane no Chiisana Ie

If you don't mind living in same dorm (or not in same room basically)
Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou
Suzuka
Ai yori Aoshi

If you don't mind them not starting by living together but eventually living together
Chuunibyou (if I remember correctly) - anime
Kimi no Iru Machi
Clannad - anime
Plastic memories - anime
Octave (Yuri)

Extra (Really good but don't meet your requirements exactly)
Bonnouji - they live in apartments next to each other but she spends most of the time in his apartment hanging out.
Spice and Wolf - They're travelling most of the time so they end up staying together at different hotels in same room.

I've only read manga of most except the ones I mentioned with 'anime' so I'm not sure whether it has an anime adaptation or not. I guess manga is better anyway if you don't mind reading.
Hope you get something you like :)

B-Shock

Fu-Fu-a cute yuri

Kirai

Senakagurashi-living in two apartments that are only separated by a glass door

Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen-the main leads are a prince and a princess,so ofc they live in a castle and not 'alone' but they're a married couple

Horimiya-not living together but certainly has a 'living together' vibe because the guy is at the girl's house about 97% of the time(her parents aren't home most of the time either)and for another 2% they're at school

What is romance manga called?

Romance manga, or more commonly known in Japan as shoujo manga, have been popular since the 1950s. Fans of shoujo manga will tell you that your heart will race while reading because the interactions between the main characters are just too cute.

Are there any romance manga on Shonen Jump?

The growing number of romances in Shonen Jump are marked by unique takes on the genre, which could be attributed to the publisher trying to stand out. Not only do these romance stories have something new for old readers, but they might also attract those who usually scoff at such stories.
