Cozy MM vs Low Angst: What's the Difference?
Short answer
Low angst = relationship conflict stays gentle; no cruel betrayal arcs.
Cozy = low angst plus warmth, domesticity, and often closed-door norms.
All cozy MM is usually low angst. Not all low angst is cozy. A low-angst thriller romance may still feel cold, stylish, or emotionally distant even if nobody cheats or ghost each other for two hundred pages.
If you only remember one line: low angst is about pain level; cozy is about emotional climate.
