I'm a frog, but I'm kind of sluggy too. It really depends on the characters. I said this last thread, but when you ship two really bottom-y characters together, you're going to end up with a lot of fic and such where they switch.

i don't have any extreme notps (i'm more likely to be annoyed w someone who likes the same ship as i do but with reversed top/bottom tbh lol) so my mindset is mostly "do your thing if you want". i only get aggravated about it if one of the character gets totally oocified for the ship to work. at that point i just assume the person doesn't care to truly understand the character(s)

i remember seeing somewhere that jap fujos also overwhelmingly prefer to see their favorite character bottom, which makes intuitively makes sense because you want to see your favorite getting love and affection from everyone.

this phenomenon is fascinating because it contradicts the age-old meme of "girls just like yaoi because they self-insert as the uke / they want to have sex with the seme!!11" if anything, fujos want to see their fave getting penetrated (by the top). however, this doesn't mean that fujos are interested in penetrating men irl with a strap on. if fujos were using the top as a proxy to penetrate the bottom, then you'd have fujos playing this out in their real-world sexual lives by pegging men. thus, the claim "fujos are just yumes with extra steps" also collapses under scrutiny because it's obvious fujos aren't using the seme/uke as proxies for self-insertion.

Occasionally, yeah. For me, it's because of the subtlety and slow burn aspect. It's fun to imagine what it would look like if the characters got together, or what kind of romantic moments they'd have offscreen. It's nice if you're in the mood for something more lowkey and basically looking to be blueballed by a pairing lmao. Also, sometimes it's just nice to have gay shit as a side dish to whatever crazy sci fi or fantasy shit is going on in the main plot.

Based nonna. It doesn’t matter for me if he’s getting sweet tender loving from the other half of my OTP or if he’s getting raped by a mob. All that matters is that he gets fucked silly.

My fave has a tragic backstory so it warms the cockles of my heart to see him getting unconditional love. He’ll live happily ever after with his seme and they’ll make sweet love everyday. But at the same time, seeing him get fucked senseless by a mob or getting raped gives me a dopamine hit. I want to see him in the heights of agony and ecstasy, the highs and lows. They’re opposite sides of the same coin.

Around the bonus stories with the other ship, it was atrocious and honestly cringe, not the stories themselves but the art was just really ugly as fuck. The expressions, the very scratchy art, idk, I’m cringing trying to find the example that made me just cringe so hard that I felt my stomach sink, I’m doing this for you, nonnie, only for you.
It’s honestly shitty how it got a terrible reception at first, because while lots of people complained during the release of the translated chapters about the plot being basic yadda yadda and complaints about yaoi being pwoblwematique, I honestly loved the manwha exactly because it’s simple, it’s not trying to moralfag too hard and doesn’t turn into some retarded ass revenge/fighting story like the average manwha does.

Haruto went apeshit and was too possessed and violently raped the girl with the long black hair if I remember right. It was quite graphic too and they played it down as the girl being in love with him but he didn't like her so that was her chance that's why she didn't refuse him nor fight back pityfuck shit. Appalling moid writing didn't expect less. The reason I started it was because of d-gray man artist did the designs and I'm a d-grayman fag and did expect some fujobait but then this scene occurred out of nowhere and I got very turned off. Even moids said that they got very turned off and dropped the anime because it was random and pretty violent. The rating dropped dramatically at myanimelist too after that episode aired.

To the nona who was asking about ai roleplay in the last thread. C.ai is really good at writing yaoi! I've tried a few other chatbots that are free, but I get all the best from c.ai so I don't mind paying for it to keep it going. You do have to get creative with the NSFW filter, but once you do they can really run with it. The LC thread for chatbots and c.ai and nsfw c.ai subreddits have links for resources and strategy guides. Definitely learn to write your own private bots though because a public bot's dirty secret might be that he has a fetish for licking feet and arm pits, farts or and I quote "Pissing on anime girls".

KEK it really is like picrel. But since two of the omegas have (female)moms, that means women can create omegas. Does it then follow that omegas can have daughters? Or do they only have sons?

I don't think it's just the western ones unfortunately. I've been somewhat recently getting back into BL after a many years long break due to a pairing in a game reigniting my interest, which meant new social media accounts to follow artists, mostly japanese, chinese, korean and some indonesian ones. There has been a surprising amount of cuntboy and lactation art I've come across, even unrelated to the specific pair I was looking for originally. Tits being drawn on the guys that do not at all look like pecs, but overinflated, very rounded female-like tits and overly puffy nipples. The rest of the physique is kept male, usually with muscles. Am I suffering from selective memory? Was it always like this? It reeks of tranny-influenced crap to me.

I wish I had saved some art where I saw this, but I saw one case with just straight up female, large breasts on an otherwise jacked male. Maybe I could find it and post. It was a semi famous Jpn artist.

based nonnie for excellent taste. But sadly that ship draws in hetbenders like bees to honey and it's solely because nobody can accept a male character with a pretty face as just that anymore, he has to be female. I've had to mute and block so many artists who post art depicting Kaveh as a sexy woman without proper tags in place because it pisses me off too much, I've heard others complain about the same thing all the time so it's definitely not just me. If otome games and hetships didn't have such boring shit dynamics that interested no one except self inserters they wouldn't have to ruin the good things we have now, but I also feel there's a certain amount of the "only love between a male and a woman is real love" belief which is why they have to visualize them as a straight couple.

I feel so sad and fuming with rage at the same time. I chose to wrote in this thread, not the genshin one because I don't want to get attacked and it's about what I noticed in the difference of reactions at neuvilette x furina vs haikaveh. So one ship is currently celebrated on chinese websites, while the other one was met with hostility, harrassment, and threats. They went as far as sending emails to the ccp because mihoyo was apparently "promoting homosexuality". The alhaitham yumes/otomes wanted kaveh to be lynched and were calling him all sorts of names because they stole "their husband". Literally people were going insane because those two male characters were roommates. Like "why does alhaitham has an idle related to kaveh??" and all sorts of complains about mihoyo pushing yaoi instead of pandering to lumine otome crowd. Oh and now? It seems that the same crowd who was crying that their husbando isn't kissing lumine's ass, are shipping neuvilette with furina. Or even if they aren't shipping it, they are not bothered by it. How is this fucking fair? Just because it's a straight ship?? Why was a fujo ship met with so much jealousy and vitriol about oh noooo this blonde bitch is taking away my husband oh nooo but they're fine with neuvilette being with furina? Where is the fucking logic I hate these people so much at least stop it with the double standards. I don't understand why there is so much hatred towards gay ships, like how is that affecting you so much to make you seethe like that!

I'm willing to bet that they're obsessed with the "he can fix me" tard wrangler shit for self insertion.

The hate Haikaveh got was insane too, Mihoyo got really bold for once and gave us one of the best gay ships I've seen, they're two adult men around the same age that share a life together but even that's too much for people to handle. Homophobic yumejos and male gamerbros shaking hands in the background.

Now we're going to have 2 days worth of spergs at it again, thanks a lot. And no, Neuvillette and Furina aren't canon, they are never implied to have anything else but a professional relationship.

Since when? The people losing their minds over a female character talking to a male one like the sperg who was convinced that Mihoyo was pushing Wriothesley x Clorinde because they shared one scene of entirely platonic conversation are pretty obviously people unhealthily possessive over the male characters and see female ones as competition i.e. husbandofags, the fujos in that thread have made it pretty clear that they don't give a shit about canon and will ship whatever they want. I really, really hate this moidbrained conflation because fujos have fundamentally nothing in common with husbandofags even though both like male characters. It's the same stupid shit as thinking all bishounen series are "fujopandering" when they just have a pretty male cast who only obsess over (you) and not each other.

GI does have some charm but it's also a very generic clunky (in gameplay and looks) jrpg with a ton of ugly coomery waifus and maybe 5 interesting fleshed out (by GI standards I mean, its writing is shallow) male characters who can be shipped with other male characters (but there will always be the manic pixie teehee waifu to go with them because the coomers gotta coom I guess). I liked it a while ago but the writing has gone downhill during the last year, not to mention the amount of shit you have to go through to maybe have 5 minutes of interesting lore with the good characters. Fans are into it mainly for the shiny overdesigned gacha characters and shallow ship writing that they can make up headcanons and coffeeshop aus about.

I was just thinking about this awhile ago. Like there's a whole subsection of Zhongchi shippers who believe Mihoyo gave semi-canon proof of their ship because of chopsticks or whatever, same with Haikaveh fans. It's not even just fujos overdosing on delusion either, there are people who say that Beiguang and Eimiko are lesbian-coded and will call you homophobic if you don't agree. It's beyond regular shipping at that point. GI characters barely have much depth to begin with especially with how the game is structured (moving onto a new region every couple of months), you'd think the FOTS yaoi was on Narusasu levels but these people go crazy over characters with 2-3 personality traits and a sentence worth of backstory. It's reflected in the fics too because most of it is just trashy porn and modern AUs where you could have the names swapped out for literally anybody else. Saying this as a former Kaelucfag.

A lot of them are very young and GI is basically revolutionary admittedly (gacha game but with open world and constant updates), and it does enough interesting things for people to get past the shit. But when you realize one of the biggest "Neuvlette" shipper artist doesn't even playthe game it opened my eyes a lot.

The writer is painful low stakes because it's dragged down by the usual gacha nonsense of jack shit happening to main characters. Ironically the sub quests tend to have some pretty fun writings, if you can make sense of the convoluted lore.

There were occasional trollposts and holdovers from the original /jojo/ threads but shit really hit the fan when she blew a gasket after people posted a few rule 63 pictures, which led her to spam the threads multiple times with the same Trish Una rule 34 pictures and irl gore multiple times to tank threads. When that didn't work she would take dickpicks from reddit and /soc/ and lazily photoshopping timestamps onto them to make it seem like an actual male was posting pictures of his own penis in the thread as well as making the occasional fake cum tribute photo. Once the threads evolved into /fujo/ she started spamming whatever was on the first page of /e/ and finally some black guy taking pictures of his penis next to a phone with anime characters on it. Looking back it really blows my mind how fucking pointless and stupid the whole situation was and the vendettaposting on /y/ is just the cherry on top.

Either way she's retarded as fuck and the spamming comes off to me as an edgy tryhard thing to appear as a moid so to that all I have to say is YWNBAM.

Genshin gets a lot of flack because it's a gacha game and most people who hate it never played it or played just for a while in the beginning. It's a very entertaining game with lots of exploration and fun characters, of course it's not groundbreaking writing but there's really nothing fundamentally wrong with it. It's just a fun experience and they've improved upon the writing for the last two story chapters a lot, upping the stakes, suspense and character interaction. The male main character is also a cute twink instead of a male power fantasy so that's a big bonus.

Does anyone remember a BL novel released in English that featured a fat uke and a coworker seme being stranded in a desert island situation where the uke loses weight until the seme finds him hot? And the uke has phemosis. I used to own this novel but I gave it away lol. It was published in English by Tokyopop I think (or their BL branch anyway.)
I can’t quite remember but they might start fucking on the island while the uke is still fat. I think there was a sequel too. I think the title had “Momma” in it or a reference to being a mommas boy… might be wrong about that. Omg I just remembered it was Don’t Worry Momma!!

Straight-turned-gay can work but I hate when even after the couple is kinda established they bring a potential female love interest or any woman to cause drama. Something similar happened at the end of the first pairing in uuultra c and it was so unnecessary. It makes me feel like the gay ship doesn't have a strong foundation and that they would still lust after women or choose a woman if given the chance. As if they're prison gays who will forgot about being gay once they're out of prison. I also hate it when the uke still doesn't admit that he's attracted to men and even after multiple romantic scenes with the seme he still thinks about marrying a woman. Being oblivious at first is fine, but if this guy has kissed you, or you even had sex with him and you still don't admit you have feelings for him then fuck off.

This. People actually understood that it was an issue of a difference in taste. These days, the proponents of transhit in yaoi do it to virtue-signal or to validate their own delusions, and no one is allowed to complain about it for fear of being called a bigot. Frankly, I think their need to turn every gay pairing into a straight couple with a self-harming woman is homophobic and misogynistic as hell.

Am I the only one who sort of likes mpreg here? I sometimes read it and don't care as long as they're not giving the uke a literal vagina, it's just a magical fantasy trope to me. I think most of the appeal to people isn't even about seeing males with bellies/giving birth or anything (usually it doesn't make it that far), just the concept of "breeding" or w/e. And like other nonnas said mpreg and feminization are nothing like what we have now. The fakejoshi of today are just writing out their het/PIV obsessions under the guise of "trans headcanons" so they can weaponize transphobia against you if you dare to openly dislike it. Can't even say you want to only see homosexual sex in yaoi without the "not all men have penises and piv is KWEER" brigade coming after you.

No. 335840

>Mpreg
I can't take it seriously because I find the concept too goofy and absurd, but it's fine to enjoy it as long as it's tagged. Like you said, it's not really the same thing as troon headcanons. As much as I loathe ABO, it's still better than trans crap.
What kind of fascinates me is that these women (they're female, let's not mince words) scream at other women for "Le fetishizing gays" but then turn around and fetishize the hell out of trannies. I feel like some old-school TiFs would be uncomfortable with the emphasis this art and fanfic puts on vaginas, mastectomy scars, and PIV. Not to mention the fact that PIV is actually dangerous for TiFs; the blockers and HRT dry up their vaginal walls and make them more vulnerable to tearing. Iirc the Jamie Reed disclosures even mentioned a case of a teenage TiF harming herself by attempting PIV.

No. 335843

Honestly us fujos have had it decently good considering the cuntboy shit only started becoming popular within the last 2-3 years, futa has terrorized yuri fans since the beginning of dawn. Het shippers have it the best because no one cares to write male/TIM or female/TIF but their content is still garbage in general. If tranner shit was properly tagged and not categorized as m/m I probably wouldn't be that bothered but they don't even have the decency to warn for it and scream across the rooftops about how gay their pronoun sex is. If even 0.001% of your "m/m" content is PiV you should be banned from ever calling yourself a fujoshi. We need to gatekeep harder nonnas

No. 335846

>futa has terrorized yuri fans since the beginning of dawn
That's what happens when you're in a fandom for shit made predominantly by men for men. Futashit is way less of an issue within josei ai because those creators and fans tend to be actual women instead of cock-obsessed AGPs and pornbrained scrotes. Males don't give a crap about female characters, their arcs, or their relationships. They just want to watch two jailbait moeblobs kyaaa and smash their boobs together. Say what you want about fujos, at least we make a token effort to portray the characters we like as having nuance beyond "ooga booga cocks dicks balls ooga."
>Het shippers have it the best because no one cares to write male/TIM or female/TIF

These types are annoying too but most of the time they're trooning het to be "gay/lesbian", ex. Jean/Diluc GI are lesbians because Diluc is a trans woman or Tamaki/Haruhi OHSHC are gay because they headcanon Haruhi as a valid mlm transmasc. I agree these people are ashamed of hetshipping because it's not woke enough for them but most aren't making straight male x trans women content either which is what I was referring to. They don't care about actual homosexuality/SSA but random labels instead.

Samefag but also the self-hating het shipper headcanons rarely ever translate into actual art/fanfics while cuntboy is continually getting more popular in fan content. The het T4T etc stuff is mostly a performative thing which is why I say het shippers don't have as big as a tranny problem in their circles. They might run into people virtue-signalling about it on Twitter/Tumblr because they wokeify ships so hard it circles back to het but that's about it.

No. 335868

>>335843
I don't like them, but to be honest I don't consider futa and cuntboy shit to be on par with troons either as they're supposed to be a biological woman with a dick and a biological man with a vagina caused by whatever magical lore they come up for the plot. It's not a trans-identified man or a trans-identified woman. To me it's comparable to calling a sex scene with someone wearing a fursuit monsterfucking, while the concept is similar it still has a very different tonally. One is a "what if" fantasy, one is the representation of an ugly, terrifying reality.

>ex. Jean/Diluc GI are lesbians because Diluc is a trans woman or Tamaki/Haruhi OHSHC are gay because they headcanon Haruhi as a valid mlm transmasc.

Last thread someone asked about ukefuckers and semefuckers here, and I automatically replied ukefucker as I've felt that way most of my time as a fujo, but lately I think I actually be more of a semefucker. I like being more in the mind or perspective of the seme in the story and seeing him be uncontrollably attracted to the uke. If the top isn't head over heels in love or lust then it ruins it for me, I hate any pair where the top is a mindless, emotionless rape machine. If there is rape then it has to be because he's absolutely insanely in love or obsessed with how cute the bottom is. Of course, the bottom is really important too, and in the past most of my favorite characters are usually the bottom because of their cuteness, but lately I find the desire of the top cute as well, and I want them to show weakness in the dynamic and let them have the bottom have control over them in some way. I also especially like when the top has an innocence about sex and relies on the bottom to guide them early on.
Just wanted to blog my perspective since some nonas were curious about people who favor semes. I do think I may be in the minority on people who do like semes, and I might eventually slide back into prefering ukes, but it's just how I'm feeling at the moment when I read lately.

Same, I discovered it when I was a tween and it was my first BL manga. Back then the author was super slow at finishing chapters and the story was stuck in some convoluted tense moment but it was proceeding at like 3 chapters a year.
I haven't checked the updates in years but I'd love to see how it ends because it's a series I liked so much. I was afraid the author would just drop it at some point and leave it unfinished, glad it's still going at least.

9 or 11 years old, it was kind of funny, I was watching the anime TV channel once because I wanted to watch Digi Charat Nyo, and there was a commercial that would explain the different types of anime that exists. So I was watching the commercial after school, I also wanted to watch another cartoon, I don’t remember, maybe it was Planet Survival, and they showed the different shoujo anime there are, they showed “shoujo ai” and I thought it was different. So I kept watching the commercials after watching some anime, but on the commercial about “shonen” didn’t show “shonen ai” so I looked it up on YouTube and that’s how I learnt about yaoi slideshows and yaoi manga.

It's definitely one of these shows that's way, way better if you watch it blind without any expectations, just like with Boueibu or Samurai Flamenco.

I got into full on smut real fast. What's funny is that I was into collecting yaoi images but I had never read a manga before. I started off with some normie animes, discovered Loveless, read about how the manga had the "continuation" to the anime and I gradually got into more and more BL things.

based. two iconic ships.

i love seeing which ships or media converted nonas to fujoism. you can sort of extrapolate how old someone is based on their first ships or BL media. roughly speaking it's like there's three waves of fujos

1st generation
>early 2000s to early 2010s
>naruto, yyh, ygo, gundam wing, inuyasha, hetalia, death note, prince of tennis, katekyo hitman reborn, drrr, code geass, kuroshitsuji, kingdom hearts, ff7/ff8, gravitation
>anime and manga was starting to become mainstream across the globe
>you were around for the lj heydays or the decline of lj
>if you were on 4chan you remember when /cm/ was predominantly female

2nd generation
>early 2010s to 2016-2017ish
>attack on titan, yuri on ice, free, haikyuu, kuroko no basuke, dmmd, osomatsu-san, hxh, jjba, homestuck, killing stalking, kpop fandom
>you predominantly grew up on tumblr and you witnessed the ascent of SJWism in fandom

3rd generation
>late 2010s to present
>my hero academia, demon slayer, jujutsu kaisen, sk8 the infinity, promare, voltron, nu-trigun, genshin impact, thai bl dramas, bl manhwas
>maybe you became a fujo during the pandemic
>pro/anti discourse was a fixture of fandom by the time you arrived

and of course you could say the 0th generation, the og fujos in japan, were shipping captain tsubasa, saint seiya, jjba and slam dunk while their western counterparts were shipping kirk/spock before animanga became big outside of japan

paradoxically, there's more bl and yaoi content than ever compared to the slim pickings of the 2000s but man ohman the 2000s were a great time to be a shipper. something about the anime back then just made them fujo catnip, even if you knew the gay was never gonna happen. i swear to god, masashi kishimoto probably never predicted he'd be responsible for the birth of an entire generation of fujos via narusasu kek

nowadays fujos are lucky if we even get one gay bait show a season. its like animating yuri on ice sucked up all of the gay in the anime industry and mappa acts like it doesn't even exist anymore. no wonder bl manhwa and thai live action bl dramas have gained so much traction, now there's a wave of neo-fujos who grew up entirely on manhwa. im patiently biding my time for a fujo renaissance.

Recent fujobait is always pretty mild too, I remember even early 2010s series had better content. The most recent ones I can think of are SK8 (same director as Free!), Tsurune and maybe Great Pretender but none of them really have the same flavour as old stuff. Those series don't have the longeitivity Free! had either, like KyoAni is still milking MakoHaru to this day but there's zero talk about SK8.

that's another thing, for some reason series these days have a much shorter lifecycle and less sticking power compared to the days of yore. back then, you couldn't ignore sasunaru or light/l or ygo prideshipping; even dudebros had to acknowledge the subtext. now fujo powerhouses like sk8 or free are mainly enjoyed among fujos but don't really garner much attention outside their target demographic.

Some of the girls were lending each other's BL manga and I always refused because of that, the girl letting everyone read her Viewfinder's volumes told us to not damage them or her mom would kick her ass and I thought it just meant her parents are strict. Actually, she told us later that all the Viewfinder volumes were her mom's. Like her mom was a huge fujoshi and made her daughter one as well. To this day I find this really weird but once her mom tried to start a very small local con so I'm sure she wasn't lying at least.

Some weird, famous artist, one of the guy who worked on Lastman, has been in trouble months ago in France for one of his officially published comics because it was legit just oneshota garbage about a little boy with a huge dick getting raped by women with huge boobs. I forgot his name but he said on Catsuka long ago that he's attracted to 12yo girls (real ones) and that he wished he had a big sister we would have raped him, no clue how they published any of his stuff aside from Lastman. I wouldn't be surprised if publishers were even more careful now.

Turns out there's a publisher (j-pop) that translates pretty much any popular BL series as well as other stuff, so I guess there are a lot of fujos here.

Nah I'm the same, started around 16 years old. I don't know why you'd be into it long before that. I think people don't normally get into smutty romance until they're going through puberty… But also while we're sharing I lived in a conservative christian household and gay stuff wasn't allowed so I had to basically get a driver's license and go to the bookstore by myself before I could pick it up and look at it lmao so maybe I would have started sooner

A lot of fujobait anime recently goes over western fandoms head, since its mainly idol shit that doesn't get a lot of traction here. This season has had Paradox Live, B-Project, and Hypnosis Mic that has tons of shipbait and fanservice but none of these got any traction with English speakers.

Certainly, I’m vaguely aware that Japanimation (as it was called back in the day) had an earlier start in Europe compared to the US so there must’ve been pre-2000s eurofujos. I remember one of my college classmates from Albania telling me about how she grew up watching the Rose of Versailles. Curious what the eurofujos shipped.

>>337345
Omg, yaoi_daily and all the scanlation communities like phantomhive scans. Back then, I got home from school and I logged onto KH yaoi comms to look at Axel/Roxas fic. Now, I log off from work and I browse fujochan and LC. Some things never change.

> I think you're missing Watanuki x Doumeki / donuts or whatever it was called, and also HARRY POTTER

D’oh, how could I forget FMA and xxxHolic? And while we’re on the topic of CLAMP, Kurogane/Fai and Touya/Yukito. Oh my god I remember when Vig Mcnoganoganog or however you spell his name threw a fit insisting Fai and Kurogane were Totally Straight.

I didn’t put HP since Im not the most familiar with western stuff but on second thought there’s enough overlap with 2000s weebs and HP fans not to include HP. Side note but I feel like Drarry was popular since it was easy to fit into the archetypical shounen rival dynamic - which 2000s fujos developed an appetite for due to Naruto, Bleach, etc - even though the source material was nothing like that.

If we’re going to talk about western stuff, then superwholock def belongs in the 2nd gen. Idk enough about capeshit to classify its different iterations. Non-weeb slashers have their own history so they warrant their own separate timeline. But I feel like weebs and western slashers started to converge around the 2010s when tumblr became the fandom nexus.

I was in gen 1, but fujos existed before that so there's proto-gens as well because they were the ones that made me aware it even existed.

Alas, my frame of reference ends at the early 2000s since my family didn’t even get a home PC (complete with dial up internet access) until 2001 or 2002ish. Are there any elder fujos here who can enlighten us about fujos in the 90s?

I consider Beyblade to be part of the early 1st gen wave, with Digimon (Tai/Yamato, Daisuke/Ken), Pokémon (Palletshipping), YGO and Evangelion. Lol, I wonder how many of us became fujos in our youth after watching cartoons targeted towards young boys.

I'm gonna defend Sk8 tho. The director is also very clearly the multishipper type (if that wasn't clear enough from Free!) giving us multiple flavors of problematic ships all centered around the villain
>Tadashi/Adam, villain enabling canonical BDSM secretary and boss

tbh I get why Japanese fujoshi who read light novels would care more than use since the anime adaptations with their bland or ugly character designs tend to be more popular or even the only version available in most countries. I read the first volume of Haruhi Suzumiya in French long ago when I was in high school and I found some of the characters way less obnoxious than in the anime, especially Mikuru, and it's not isekai so I assume the dissonance is even worse between reading about a guy and his team of kawaii waifus fighting monsters with big armors and swords and seeing the characters do that on screen with the camera focusing on the girls' boobs and panty shots.

From experience, dialogue between characters, especially male, are cut all the time, adding fanservice designs and scenes isn't uncommon either.

I've had the exact opposite experience with shield hero, the anime was honestly better.

I want to read BL but don't want to start a new manga, I just want the ones I'm already reading to update.
I'm really into Tashiro-kun but the updates are so slow, and the author hasn't drawn anything with the main couple in like a year, only side couple shit I don't care about.
I also really like Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu even tho it's not really bl anymore, but again the updates take ages and each chapter is released in several parts so you can't even read it like that.
Also reading 19 Days and at least that updates pretty often, but still no update this month.
I randomly picked up Ignat no Hanayome as soon as the 1st chapter got published, 5 months later the author has only published 1 new chapter. So now I'm gonna have to wait years for this to finish? I shouldn't have read it.
Really sucks that for this hobby you can spend more time waiting than actually reading stuff. There are "ongoing" uncompleted manga that I have been waiting like 10 years for. And I don't mean the scanlation, I mean for the author to update their shit or finish the story and publish a tanko.

Bruh Adam purposefully tries to murder the teenage boy he's sexually attracted to, and actually hospitalizes his ex.

the birthplace of yaoi so as expected, the industry is most mature of all the nations. the bar for quality (art, storytelling, characters) is overall higher. however, innovation is stagnant so the industry is in desperate need of shaking up or else korea/china will leave japan in their dust. Good balance of story and smut.

>Korea

BL manhwa is going through an awkward puberty growing phase, its like yaoi during the 90s. Give a couple more years for the genre to become more adolescent. Then Koreans love their smut, which is ironic considering how chaste their dramas are.

I wish more publishers would sell ebooks of individual chapters, at least that would kinda solve the issue of having to wait years between volume releases.

I never liked "traditional" romance since most of it is garbage, so maybe I was primed to gravitate towards fujo stuff. Though I do really like yuri and the occasional well-done het too

I think it's pretty nice, the main issue comes from that they stopped using 3D models (which they did for the first game) so the CG art got worse as the games went on.
DMMD was also popular on tumblr anyway, so it's pretty clearly a design philosophy people just liked in general in that era but I really don't think it looks anything like Helluva boss.

and what did that have to do with anything? it isn't the flashiness that makes them stand out, it's the ugliness. dmmd has somewhat ugly designs itself but in a completely unrelated way.
>DMMD was also popular on tumblr anyway
just leave dmmd out of this. DR has had tumblr in a chokehold for over half a decade because of its art and subject matter, and it contributed heavily to the notorious tumblr edgelord art style popular with the helluva boss, undertale, etc crowd. dmmd did not.

I'm a lesbian and was always more into f/f (being a butch I hated yuri though), in my late teens I started dating a girl who was a huge oldschool fujoshi obsessed with BL and she fully converted me into one. Still with her a decade later. However I think the interest was always there, I always liked male characters but not in a husbandofag way, I was never interested in straight romances and never wanted to imagine myself dating them but I wanted to see them date each other and see how it works. Being so young I just found fujos so cringe and annoying at the time that I never wanted to explore the thought further, when that barrier was passed there was no going back for me. I think the appeal is that I don't have any emotional strings attached to two male characters so I get to enjoy the couple as they are.

I like Japanese BL for the art and I find the stories to be well done. I like it when the story is interesting and we’ll written , and if the art is beautiful it’s a plus.

Korean BL is hit and miss for me. A lot of it is very repetitive and cringe. But there are a lot of good psychological BLs that I really enjoy. I preferred it a few years ago when the art was simple and more like Japanese manga. The stories were better written. Now the art is so detailed and intense the artists are getting burnt out and the writing is taking a hit. The fans just seem to want to see monster sized dicks and pretty art.

I enjoy modern day setting Chinese bl manhua , the art is often good and the stories are great. I know the censorship is annoying, but I also think it’s what makes the writing so well done. They have to find ways to work around it and I think that’s why it works for them. Even though you don’t get to see anything explicit, they write it in a way that’s almost more exciting than seeing. Like the build up and anticipation but never seeing it. Idk if that makes sense.

Although danmei is not everyone's cup of tea, I like a lot of Chinese bl novels, especially for the novelty of the content.

I always liked shoujo so I lingered more towards het ships and yuri, I'd occasionally dab into yaoi since a lot of things pandered to weeb girls at that time were BL.

Nta but a lot of danmei was officially translated to English (and a lot of other languages, picrel is from the russain edition of mdzs). Like other anons mentioned there is a plot outside of romance (evidently by how some danmei gets adapted to the screen censured but still succeed), a lot of series are also long without getting boring which is a fault I find with a lot of manhwas… The ones I read are mostly fantasy or historical but there are sci fi and contemporary books too.

>Rezero
Can't speak for the other fujos, but I enjoy Rezero for its prominent male menhera, which is rare. There's a divide between the anime-only fans (if even that), who are far more loud, esp with their Rem obsession, versus the anime+LN/WN fans, who are way more into Subaru than anything else. He has so much art and stories revolving him in various vulnerable positions, that I never run out of content, even in the novel itself.

Honestly, Rem's popularity makes me draw a parallel between her and Marilyn Monroe with The Seven Year Itch. Everyone remembers them for the iconic outfit and scenes. But the few who watched it know it doesn't revolve solely on them, and thus enjoy the many other characters said media has to offer. Heck, Monroe and Rem are rarely featured about as a couple with their male protags. Their iconography is revolving only themselves, so it rarely presents an opportunity for shipping. And if I remember correctly, Rezero shipping is such an anomaly that a fujo ship (Julius/Subaru) has more fanart/fic than the iconic blue-haired chick as a ship.
Some say the fujo crumbs aren't enough, but imo it more than makes up for it regarding the male protag suffering, with no small part of the VA elevating his character.
Speaking of, the VA has a history in BL like Yarichin Bitch Club and bait like ParaLive, and was just recently the protag for Mask Danshi, whom he acted as a couple with the VA for Julius from Rezero. Which is, ironic lmao.

I like the art and sex scenes from Sadistic Beauty side story but some scenes are so obviously copied from killing stalking, like when Wookyung thinks Minho ran away and freaks out that he's going to kill him but then finds out he didn't, I just can't take the story seriously, it comes off as a cheap knock off

Sadahiro Mika's Hai to Diamond has been a reread favorite of mine for over 10 years now (wow that's a long time now that I'm actually thinking about it)
It's not the best, it's very much of it's time and filled with ridiculous, gritty, messy drama, but I love the main couple and will always have a soft spot for them.
The Kyuuso Wa Cheese No Yume O Miru/Sojou No Koi Wa Nido Haneru duology from Mizushiro Setona is also a huge favorite thatI never get tired of. Guess I just like struggling couples that just can't seem to stay together under healthy circumstances.
>>339115 is a modern favorite of mine as well. This sort of bittersweet ending where they end up together but you know it's not going to be the end of their relational strife is present in all of my favorites.

As for comfort series, Yoneda Kou's whole body of work outside of the Twittering Birds series has been in my frequent rotation for years. Her 8018 doujin for KHR were foundational to me getting into BL and I love the atmosphere of quiet struggle to communicate feelings that persisted even into her original stuff. If I had to choose a favoritem it'd definitely be Reply.
No shade to Twittering Birds, I do like it and keep up with it, but I know I'll only really appreciate it once it's fully finished.

Gosh, it's such a throwback seeing things laid out like this. First Generation defined my media consumption in my youth, and I don't think I've been into fandom BL at all since then, although I did and still do rigorously consume original works. Those really were the days… I feel that Second Generation was around where shipping got more politicized or whatever, and now you have to be more covert about what you like if it doesn't fall into a certain mold of moral correctness. Although that might just be due to me growing up and gaining awareness of social acceptance in the online sphere.
Picrel but DGM fans got to eat so well when Yu's whole deal with Alma Karma dropped. Having been inculcated on yaoi through Yullen doujin at a young age, it was very exciting, kek. And it really fed into good Yullen material down the line.
How are other old fujos doing with their OTPs from back then?

I've actually been meaning to watch this show, but had been pushing it off. Guess now I have a good reason to check it out now. Ngl it's nice to see another rezero fan in the wild, I'll have to agree about the male menhera and ryona, it's an absolute 10/10 in that front, at least for me.
Tbh I actually like Rem, but the popular "waifu" version of her is so different from her stern asocial personality in the story that it's basically two different characters that happen to look the same.
I think the amount of fujobait is actually pretty decent all things considered. A variety too, Subaru even gets called out for his handsome men collecting. It's more that its pretty slow to start up so you have to be content with the menhera for a while before male characters start having flirty banter.

Hayaka Nojiko's Endou-kun, because it stopped me from wanting to commit sudoku. It was the first BL manga I read that had a more artsy artstyle and storytelling, and it just blew me away. I wanted to keep reading more of her manga and that made me stop being suicidal.
This didn't work out too well for me tho, because all she does nowadays is start a new manga, write 1-2 chapters, then go on hiatus. So she has like 5 uncompleted manga on hiatus kek. I think about her all the time but haven't read anything from her in like 5 years.

It’s taken 6 months for 38 pages…next chapter is 38 again and then the big one, so maybe in a year from now. I’ll probably ask if they need help at some point
