Shounen Ai : Bromance general Anonymous 09/02/23 (Sat) 07:04:18 PM No. 319163

Definition:
>The Japanese words "shōnen" and "ai" individually mean "boy" and "love," which is exactly what shōnen-ai means, boy-love. It refers to anime and manga that focus on love and romance (as opposed to sex) between boys or men (typically bishōnen).

Shonen Ai contains NO sex or sexual themes to it compared to yaoi. Shonen ai is a boys love genre that is devoid of sexual intercourse. While the characters may be in love or kiss each other, other than that explicit sex scenes are not shown.

This is a thread to discuss and post about shounen ai works and media.(use the fujo thread)

This is obvious bullshit and bait so I won't waste my energy giving a actual reply.

We already have a fujo thread. Delete this embarrassment of a thread.

You're not entitled to shit ,if you hate it so much go to meta and complain about it or better yet hide the thread.

That's not what the term bromance means kek. You're free to discuss shonen ai in the fujo thread

Anonymous 09/02/23 (Sat) 08:02:43 PM No. 319183

Kek. Why does this exist when there's already a fujo thread? You're not better just because you like wholesome non-sexual BL

Don't know why anons are so opposed to this thread. But then I remember you guys are allergic to hiding threads you don't like, and feel an obligation to throw a hissy-fit. I think you did good op.
>>319163
Do you have any favorite Shonen-Ais? I'm pretty limited to manhwas right now, but I'm trying tog et into more shows. Is Heaven Officials Blessing worth starting?

I actually didn't watch heavens blessing but I added it because I know it's a popular shounen ai so I can't give my opinion on it.
Some shounen ai manhwa I really liked is "murderous lewellyn's candlelit dinner" and "interview with a murderer (Queensa)."

A (chinese) shounen ai show I'm currently watching is "Beryl and Sapphire" the show has ALOT of episodes and different themes so I never get bored but I do feel like sometimes the episodes are too tragic that it becomes too much. I have a weird taste so that's why I like that show, maybe some other anon will say that show is crap but idc.

Shounen ai is not just wholesome and can have dark or disturbing themes, you sound ignorant as hell. You think something needs to have porn it for it to be serious or dark.

because this thread is redundant, shounen ai is already allowed in the other thread

Nta, Not all anons who consume shounen ai also consume yaoi and not all shounen ai is romantic (sometimes its just bromance) so yeah if they want to have a separate thread that's okay. Just hide the thread you moron.
