I liked the fan voice for Abe more than the official one honestly, the official one had too much of a lisp.

>>488285NTA but Kuso Miso Technique
is a bara manga, it was literally published in Barazoku.
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.

>>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.

I didn't realize the official release missed that much text? Damn I wish someone would properly translate the original novel once and for all. Even with the English version being condensed like you said, the new revised version felt way too long and bloated and to me actually undermined the original novel which always seemed short and brutal but in a good way.

Such a pretty art style, I'm curious to see where the story goes.
