When a 【Snail】 falls in Love

Yes, I ripped the name from the Chinese drama as it happens to match my list

If you are looking for hot sex,penetration,lots & lots of foreplay then please turn around. Coz,NONE of that will be here(or almost none ). The only thing that this list will focus on is,
- BL at it's Purest form [SHOUNEN AI]
- Slowly developing relationship [SLOW ROMANCE]
- Even if there IS a [YAOI] here, the sex will NOT be as important/significant as their relationship in the story.

Tomo & Shuuhei - 2 childhood friends who are very obviously in love with each other but do not dare to take their relationship to the next level just to avoid any unneccessary turmoil in their peaceful days. Add to that,that Tomo's feelings of guilt which acts as the biggest obstruction in their mutual reciprocation.

A softly romanticized slice of life pure shounen ai. Perfect read for those, who are looking for slowly developing feelings with little to no sexual contact.

Sasano a very mild mannered introvert kid ends up falling in love with the ever so dazzling outgoing Koga.By his timid nature he satisfies himself with just adoring his object of affection from afar but fortunately a coincidental meeting leaves Koga interested in him which opens the door to their friendship.

The perfect word for this 1 would be HEART-WARMING.It will fill u up with all the things that powerpuff girls are made of! So,be prepared to be "fluffed up" to the Max

I cried my eyeballs for this 1. A Heart Wrenching Boys Love Story set in a Futuristic world. IMHO,This is an Extremely Tragic story of,LOVE in it's PUREST from. A Love that Was,Is & Always will be so very Pure that it transcended all the boundaries/restrictions we consider "normal"- Gender,Time & even First Love. READ THIS,for you'll NEVER EVER come across a story like this a 2nd time in your life.

A Masterpiece.One of The Most Beautifully written & Perfectly Executed Shounen Ai & My Absolute Ultimate FAVS!! It's MUST READ for every fujoshi,IMHO.

As to say what's so special about this? Well,nothing exactly. Just your typical Hunky Delinquent seme & the Quite Shy Nerdy yet Kawai Innocent Uke becoming friends to lover meshed with some "girl in between" angst. BUT the Portrayal is SO Beautiful & Rich, that it's bordering on sheer Perfection.

Another Webcomic Masterpiece! This is 1 of those stories that genuinely makes ur heart beat like u r in love! Starts off with a run of the mill goofy teenage soul swapping story but turns out to be so MUCH MORE. The moments,the dialogues the pacing EVERY SINGLE thing is just SO F*CKING PERFECT here! As u can see I have nothing but praises 4 this particular Webcomic. It's been a while since I have come across such HIGH QUALITY BL! Highly RECOMMENDED!

If you are a fan of Komatta & looking for something similar than this 1 is for u! Haruka makes an Ideal Strong Uke & has a quite a few traits similar to Takara. Although Komatta mainly focuses on Bromance & skinship, here you'll get to see a bit of action(yaoi) & how our Dairng Queen bee Haruka openly woos his love interest Tajima Kaoru!

I love your list. It's like a good mine ヾ(☆▽☆)
Gotta say shounen-ai genre is my 'shining holy water', which i need a regular doze of for 'cleansing' after reading too much yaoi ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄

I know that drama you're talking about!!! 如果蜗牛有爱情?may I also recommend the author (it was originally a novel) other novel 他来了请闭眼, the TV adaptation is pretty good toooooo

⚣_Holic August 6, 2018 5:24 pm

Thanks dear. Unfortunately I've already watched Love me if you dare(twice actually :P). I was really into C-dramas during that time. I binged one the good ones like - Nirvana in Fire, Empresses in Palace, The Disguiser, Addiction, including the aforementioned 2 dramas. I still go back to those from time to time. IMHO, C-dramas have the immense potential to surpass the ever-so-popular k-dramas but unfortunately they lack in quantity.
Btw, is the novel translated? I am interested in reading it if it's translated. Thanks again for your recommendation! Recommend me more like those if you know (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ

I don't know if it's translated...I read the original, there's actually quite a few novels by the author that I love. And Nirvana in Fire OMFG is a fking classic!!!!!! I've binged it for three times and each time I find new details that amaze me. It really was well produced. I agree that some C dramas are good, and there's not enough of the good ones, but damn they have a lot of ones that are substandard and sometimes you need to spend a lot of time to find the jewels - worth it though. Much like good yaoi hahahaha
