However, pearl-clutching about a 2-decade-old imageboard meme is pathetic. Whoever that anon is, she definitely wasn't around when /y/ was not infested with gay moids and was full of actual yaoi 10+ years ago (that gif in particular was a classic in the /y/ yaoi humor threads). She probably believes no real woman has ever used any imageboard besides this one, even though LCF literally came from the 4/cgl/ community. Ignore newfag retards, don't even try to argue with them.

>>488285Ntayrt, but man, I sometimes hate how rigid the body types fujos on here like. I enjoy bishounens and lean muscular ikemen, but sometimes I like them to look more manly. But posting something even slightly more masculine gets other nonnas to become very bitchy for some reason. So I usually lay low and don't lean too hard regarding the depiction of the other body types.

>>488330>Do they even exist?The only non-manga anime adaptation I can think of is Ai no Kusabi, which came from a novel. There are various original BL ONAs that aren't on any databases, as well as Legend of the Blue Wolves, which is an original BL OVA. But those are originals, not adaptations of something else.
Speaking of the Ai no Kusabi novels, the official translations for it got so screwed over that fan scanlations picked up this project in spite of official licensing. Luckily, as of today, all the novels are scanlated and are available to read online. The official novels are so bad that they skipped over several novels-length worth of text (as in, hundreds of pages throughout) to condense it from the Japanese version. Yet, they completely erased important characters intros and vital story beats, so the English version doesn't make sense. So if you wanna read it, do so via fan translations.

>>488342To be fair, sometimes the line of what constitutes as "bara" "fag taste" etc. can be blurry, like pic related has a pretty big fanbase of fujos, yet there's tons of guys that like this ship too. But as you stated, I swear that there wasn't as much complaining about it even if the lines were blurry. Women liked it, and we'll laugh at the men seething over our presence. But now? Can't even glance at something that looks slightly masculine and is tagged joseimuke before fujos here complain about their personal taste not being catered to. I wish it wasn't like that.
No. 488362
>>488352>sometimes the line of what constitutes as "bara" "fag taste" etc. can be blurryThat's true, but you can usually tell by the art style. When you know the sex of the person behind the fan art/fan fic, you know with 100% certainty whether the target audience is BL or bara. People who know this and who acknowledge these subtletlies don't act like they have a stick up their asses all the time. And Heaven forbid that women and gay men like the same thing sometimes. "Nooo I don't want to be associated with moids!" then that's your problem, you can't force other women to be as bitter and obsessed with moids as you are.
>>488356Exactly! You should let others post what they like instead of complaining endlessly about how it makes you cringe. This is not your safe space where you get to be shielded from everything you don't personally like. Either tolerate it or shut up.

Nonnas, I've recently renewed my interest in Inazuma Eleven, which I know is childish as fuck (I'm a massive nostalgiafag) but the characters are all so adorable and thus super easy to ship.

>On Oct 12, 2012, a plastic container was left on the second floor in the gymnasium of Tokyo’s Jochi University (Sophia University), the alma mater of Fujimaki. Inside the container was a liquid capable of releasing poisonous hydrogen sulphide. Attached was a note which read, “I hate Fujimaki.”>Then, on Oct 15, a threatening letter was delivered to Fujimaki’s former high school which also reportedly contained a “white powder.” By the end of the month, similar letters were sent to broadcasters in Tokyo and Osaka that aired the anime version of "Kuroko no Basuke." >In the following months after the first threats were made in 2012, further threatening letters were sent out to various events related to the "Kuroko no Basuke" series in Tokyo and Chiba causing numerous cancellations or exclusions of the sports manga in the case of larger events. In each case, the letters were accompanied by a potentially poisonous substance or the threat of one.To summarize the links: Japanese guy who took out his anger of Fujimaki's success (KnB's mangaka) by threatening him and partially taking it out/blaming fujos too. From what I remember, there was talks about cancelling Comiket that year because of the death threats. But, I think just KnB was removed for safety reasons. It was a big deal in anime circles even in the west back in the early 2010s. AnimeNewsNetwork also has pretty good English catalogue uncovering these events as they were happening if you want more info.
Anyways, some people really underestimate the insanity that anti-fujos carry.

I'm glad the author deviates in some way from the usual, like one of the things i love from the second couple is that they are the same height. Kind of makes me think on how in many ships people decide to make the uke smaller just because bottoms must be always tiny or something (feng xin x mu qing from TGCF comes to mind when it's stated both have the same height but artists always make mu qing smaller which is incredibly sad)
Anyway, I'm aware there's a korean edition but last time i checked there was none in english, was the one you saw in korean?
At the library I saw love is an illusion, ennead, and other stuff I'm aware it's popular but I can't say I like.

I've been in the mood to see men suffer emotionally, anybody have good break up/cheating recs? Bonus points if their lives keep getting worse or if one of them breaks themselves apart trying to apologize.

>>496862 The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese. MC gets caught cheating on his wife by other MC, turns out he's had a crush on cheater since high school, so he blackmails him into sleeping with him too. Results are quite predictable - doesn't do the typical yaoinese nonsense where ppl get over things super quickly. Both men are annoying so it's fun watching them suffer.
Interested to see some other suggestions - this is my fave genre of BL lmao

>>496370Honestly I'm reading Hounds of Sisyphus because I want to know where the story goes. I appreciate the meme ahegao face but sometimes Guwon looks a bit grotesque, it's like he is a mix of every korean seme trope ever (darker skin, tattoos, scars, huge ass body, tall and invincible, slicked back hair, bushy eyebrows stuck in the same expression forever, sangwoo eyebags, weird eyes, straight big nose with an angular face). I'm not a fan of the idiotic MC or how the story is written so far but we'll see. The sex scene wasn't even that good besides the ahegao.
A bl that I'm extremely ashamed to say I'm reading is The Trapped Beast. I hate it because I don't like omegaverse or all the baby talk, but something about the mcs keeps pulling me back. It doesn't even look that good and idc for the political drama, but I love that both the mcs are pretty. The author recently cut the blond guy's hair but he looked so good with long hair and next to the love interest who also has long hair agggh

i really like steel under silk, i think is an enemies-to-lovers/enemies-lovers done right. the top is the typical rapey seme, but he has potential. the pace is slow as fuck, with frequent hiatus, but imo it's worth it.
it's very similar to Toxin, but imo is better written overall, with more interesting leads.

I reposted some manga rips to yaoiotaku from another public raw manga website and the fucking admins are asking me if I got permission from the original uploader. I will never understand why the BL manga community cares so much about some rando scanner's "property" yet are completely OK with illegally distributing the author/publisher's actual property. Like bitch shut up and just read your gay manga.
I remember some years ago there was an obnoxious cunt on tumblr who was a big raw provider, but it turns out she just reposted raws from Harukayumenoato before the japanese government shut it down. And then she would tell scanlation groups they weren't allowed to user HER raws. Why does it have to be like this.

He also cut his own tendons to prove to pedo that he won't run away from him ever again and to make him take care of him. And basically is implied that the real prisoner is the pedo and mc us like a mantis, catching it's
victim. I like twisted endings so I enjoyed the ending.
As for the assistant he redeems and it wasn't his fault to begin with, pedo had top notch manipulation skills. I'm glad that the wife had the best ending, and she was the most based character in the series, and the brother got the therapy and love he deserved. Mcs University colleague was best boy, but too normie for the degenerates lol.
The AU is currently serialized, and they treat everything as a period dark drama, everyone is an actor etc. and MC is a cute young actor that's in love with pedo, who in reality is a very cool but very kuudere to the point that his wife has enough of his boring ass and divorced him, but mc confesses abd they start a relationship. They're both really cute here, especially mc.

I was wondering if I'll ever have to learn Korean to enjoy Korean BL, but so far there hasn't been one I've truly liked. Every time I try one, it's just generic tropes with mediocre art.

Up until that point, I didn't think about it and when I did, I just knew it was for me. From the start, it was always BL.”>She spoke about her current work on a horror BL, but no information or title was shared during the panel. But as for a title she'd like translated into other languages, she hopes that her work, Mermaid Prince, a title that can be read on pixiv, can be translated one day. “It's not a horror series, it's a comedy.

>>515868I feel this way too and I can't explain why. Shonenslop fujobait is SO superior to original bl or implied/canon pairings to me. I don't usually go for romance as a genre, so maybe the tease of a romantic subplot in a story about something else is more appealing than a love story to me? Like the other anon said the "thrill of the chase" is also fun. It provokes imagination. With original bl or canon pairings, it's less exciting. Their story is already told. There's nothing to wonder about or argue with other fans about or make your own story about.
I think our type of fujo is super common actually!

>>515935>like watching jjk with non-fujos and seeing sakuna and fushiguro interact was uncomfortable lol. You're stronger than my friend, at the very beginning of the anime Gojo's face gets a bit too close to Yuji's, whose shirtless and Yuji blushes a little bit. We're both fujoshi and she told me even she found this too on the nose. The thing with Sukuna and Megumi isn't as in your face because in the manga
once Sukuna possesses Megumi he really treats him as nothing more than a very useful tool. It gets even more obvious near the end of the manga when
Megumi can't stop comparing Yuji and his sister, who is supposed to be "his type" and Yuji acts like he's this close to give him a love confession when crying and trying to be his kight in shining armor, I've seen plenty of non fujoshi finding it funny or suspicious.

No. 516005
>>515933>Shonenslop fujobait is SO superior to original bl It's pretty obvious why it is like that. In shonen the characters have much more personality, goals, life, friends, adventures etc. they, in many ways, are much more real than most BL characters that usually live in their own bubble, are completely separate from the world they live in, which is usually also severely underdeveloped, and interact mostly in the context of their sexuality ie. Their love interest, their rapist etc.
I'm not saying ALL bl are like this, there are a few gems and attempts to break out of this here and there (successful to a varying degree) but most of them tend to be like this. Or if the BL is plot centered, the story is often unexciting, a slog to read and often full of plot holes
No. 516015
>>515933I guess I'm the odd one out but tbh, I think shounen fujobait is just okay, a bit of a reach at points. Saying it's better than actual bl just seems kinda ridiculous.
Something like Naruto, MHA, JJK, One Piece, no I can't.
That being said, I'm a stickler to source material, half of the time it's just "well the actual story kinda sucks but I'll write better fanfiction to make up for it".

>>515933I think shounen BL shipping has such an appeal over genuine BL works because shounen series are way more likely to have a compelling plot, or at the very least one that's serviceable enough to tolerate and draw its readers into the world somewhat. Regardless of whether it's m/m, f/f, or f/m, romance by itself isn't super interesting when it's the main focus, but is great as a B-plot that adds complexity to the main story and the characters' motivations. Most real BL revolves solely around the guys getting together, and while that's definitely something that can be done well, it gets boring after a while and the resolution(them getting together or not) isn't going to wow anyone.
That being said, personally I do like it best when the boys have genuine romantic feelings for one another and not just shipping potential, but plot-heavy BL is hard to come by and finding that kind of relationship in non-BL is even harder. The best you can hope for nowadays is something like what the JJK guys have.
No. 516131
>>516128Banana Fish falls under "plot-heavy BL"(even if it's not technically BL and all kek, close enough) here, not shounen.
And honestly I find the shoujo v. shounen distinction kinda useless at times when it comes to shows like Banana Fish(shoujo that doesn't fit the image of one) or shounen series that are clearly aimed at women and have a mostly female audience like Hanako-kun or Kuroshit. I know it depends on which magazine the manga runs in but I can never consider the latter two to be the same thing as, like, MHA or JJK despite the also very heavily female audience

No. 516181
>>515868Me, too. The writing is simply better in those cases than 90% of actual published BL manga/anime so that's probably why. But BL still has a special place in my heart because I enjoyed it a lot and its empty meaningless aimless plots when I was a tween and alter as a teenager, so I can't act like I don't like it or something. I also think BL games seem very interesting and up my alley with all the horror aspects, but I hate gaming and I don't have the mental energy to watch someone play it either. I'm stupid.
>>515921This was me with KiraBoss and Wekapipo x Magent Magent when I was heavy into Jojo. They had insane stories and personalities that could work and the fan art and angsty fanfic was so fun to delve into. I still remember making up my own stories about each ship and creating headcanons to how and why it would work. If I could draw I would've made insane doujins already.
>>515933I think that it's there's already a big story going on and each of the guys in the pair are part of this story and have their own crazy plot and role in it all, extra spice if they're intertwined somehow, too. So it gives them a reason to actually be attracted to each other and makes the romance feels more legit and serious rather than a silly crush between 2 school boys or office workers where nothing actually happens. Like why do you like him? Because he's hot? Wow how entertaining. But with shounenslop it's like he likes him because he saved his life, is the one who changed him for the better, or the one who has everything he never got to have but is also nice to him and wants to help him and give him what he needs and so on. It feels like a real reason to love someone, especially with the surrounding general plot if they have sad backstories and they understand each other's struggles and stuff and are both in the same danger and preserving their lives drives them closer to each other. It's simply more human and makes the romance actually worth it.
I found my people in this discussion lol. I stopped reading actual BL years ago because of this. I enjoy my OTPs and fantasies inside my head much more because it's all the stories and tropes I like combined and real BL pale in comparison.
No. 516208
>>516181I agree with all of this and I hadn't thought about it that way before!! Having a broader story not about romance often gives the pairing a greater thematic and emotional weight. There is more at stake and there's a real chance one of the characters will die, they have complex relationships and backstories outside of the pairing, etc.
>>516064>That’s all fine and good for character driven slice of life/drama stories, but I’d like to read more ambitious plots like sci-fi or fantasy epics but in fujo flavor.My thoughts exactly! A lot of my feelings on this are just because I'm strongly drawn to fantasy/sci fi as a genre and love when the pairings are a small piece of a larger world. Sadly fantasy BL is really rare. When is the romantasy trend going to hit the BL space?? It seems to be 95% office/school dramas.

>>516262Ooh fellow Midpollo enjoyer! I prefer their original backstory from the Wildstorm universe, where everyone else on their original superhero team died, and they had forgotten who they were, so all they could rely on was each other. And Midnighter unexpectedly forming a bond with baby Jenny and deciding to adopt her was so sweet. I think the main DC universe got rid of all that because they didn't want Midnighter and Apollo to be "old" (I think they're around 50 originally, but New 52 made them mid-to-late 20s like everyone else). Also main-universe DC sometimes seems to mischaracterize Apollo as being opposed to killing when he never was before, ugh.

Frankly, isn't it exhausting to expect people to like the genre only for them to say it's crap? Not saying this is about dmmd, but in general.
I don't think somebody likes shounen if they never read anything shounen and instead likes to write powerlevel battle fanfic of shoujo.

>>517490apologies for the late reply, but marry me nonna… DC has treated apollo like absolute shit compared to his former publication, which is saying a lot because wildstorm also treated him like trash. i always enjoyed when artist would draw him on the prettier, more slender side, which i felt was a good contrast to midnighter and set him apart nicely from supes as an expy. the no killing/anti violence aspects of his personality (as well as upping his 'gay' side by having him like dragrace) is embarrassing. their relationship lacks any of the layers it previously did, with that unstated possessiveness and their tied pasts (even apollo's new backstory is boring shit). i hate that redesign they did, especially that short sleeved shirt/supersuit they do when they want to 'masculinize' a male character (joey/kon suffered the same fate). while i enjoyed steve orlando's run with them, they still didn't feel like midnighter/apollo…

Iirc she made a passive aggressive post about him winning a poll over FG and Horus for a bonus illustration with Seth and she did say she rushed it.

His rape scene was easily the most disgusting one, even more than the fat mobs. It's literally her fault why Horus lost. She put no effort into him around the time of the poll so of course the Peter Steele clone would win.

Also another thing she did was remove her old Horus avatar, changed it to Anubis and swore it's only for a month, never changed it when promised, and when she did it was a Seth pfp. This chick hates Horus.
As promised, the various proofs of her acting out. This one is the deleted one where she rambles about work, FG, and that throws mofun under the bus. Images are modified because a fan from a Spanish group gave them to me

got punched him twice, at least. I'm praying for a third time, though.Even if it's the same shitty yaoi with the top being an ass, it's pretty entertaining.

>>523865I just hope we get some conclusion with Dan's trauma. His sexual harrassment from the hospital director kind of went to the sidelines…The chase arc is kind of good because Dan looks utterly in despair. I mean, he only had had his grandma all his life, what will he do if she's gone?
JK better reform because Dan is such a sweet, sensitive guy. He can be 30 and all but he should be treated with care! JK is a damn monkey.

Jk he doesn't need itStill, I don't understand why people who truly hate Jaekyung continue reading Jinx. Sure, Dan is adorable and everyone, incluiding me, wants him to be happy but if I hated a character enough to leave deranged comments every update(sometimes daily) like the people in mangago I'd have to contemplate my life choices atp
Well, time for my nth re-read till the next chapter drops!

>>523885They are so scared of getting hate by saying they like it, or they have been gaslighed or manipulated by retards nowadays to hate it, KEK.
Just say you like it. It's more embarrassing to comment "ugh is this still going on and they are still the same" first every chapter.
"the author is pulling this sad story so we can pity him!!!!" are you that retarded that you can't even understand how stories work, megaretard? and they complain why yaoi stories are not taking seriously
didn't see this much hate with caesar, though.

>>523796You're right and it's funny seeing all the twitterfags coping hard to justify the fact that they like a "
problematic" thing. They say it's Yoshiki "accepting his queerness/homosexuality" (he never really gets used to Hikaru entering him, because it would kill him) but then they say Hikaru isn't a male and this isn't a yaoi. When Hikaru enters Asako, are they going to say it's akshually her rejecting queerness or whatever? So many stupid thoghts on a work that's just yaoi ryona (not saying it's bad, it's just that that's what the author made it for and nothing else, let's be honest).

>>521874>>521874Sorry for this but this is word for word what my Blue Lock mutual said for her current ship and she's venting to me about Kaneshiro's NTR pairing terrorism kek. But yeah been there done that. While it's not a guarantee have you tried revisiting old fandoms you've been in? Sometimes when things get rough I go back to them and see if there are any new fics, art or djs I missed. It's also a great way to check other media since there's a chance of those artists moving on and you can guarantee it has at least some fujo material to work with if they're still creating fan content.

Late to the Ennead discussion but I need to sperg
>>522171Idk, I was kind of eager for the comic to reach this part of the mythology. It wasn't anticlimactic in and of itself imo, but the shit with FG afterward totally killed the tone and pacing. I don't think Horuseth is "awfully written," I just think their relationship hasn't progressed as far as it ought to. Way too much of season two has been spent pissing about, the
mirror reveal and eye-gouging scene should have happened
ages ago. While season one was definitely stronger, I still find that the comic's positive attributes outweigh its negative ones, personally.
>>522535Maybe you should form your own opinions on things. Ennead has some tone problems and I hate FG just as much as anyone else here, but I don't think he ruins the story, and I don't think Mojito hates Horus. I like Horus, but he needed some comeuppance after being so possessive and jealous.
Getting his eyes gouged out was kind of extreme, but hes a demigod, so it's not a huge deal.
>>522384Can you please spoiler shit that hasn't even been translated into English yet? Jesus Christ.
>>522499>>522505>>522527>bonus side storyIf it's another rape scene with Seth I'm going to fucking throw up. FG is truly the Mineta of Ennead, in that he's the author's favorite character but most fans despise him, but arguably worse because even Mineta wasn't rammed down reader's throats as hard as FG is. Also
he looks even worse without facial hair. No. 525506

I liked walked on water, I give it a 7/10. But I preferred Chang over the male lead, I found him more interesting.
I felt like him and Ed had a better history between them, the plot would have been ticker and more angsty. They didn’t make Ed have feelings for him and threw the rape just to ruin his character and makes us side with the male lead, which was lazy writing to me.
He’s much sexier and his suits are so hot.
