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.

Typical friends become lovers story & yet it didn't fail to amaze me when I was reading it for the...god knows, 1000th time may be?! :P :P

2 High school boys who ride the same secluded train together evetually get to know each other, become friends & gradually come into terms with their slowly developing feelings.

1 of the Top 10 BL that u'll regret not reading if u hvn't yet. No drama,No over-exaggeration,No "I m not gay but my dick gets hard only 4 u" crap. Just Pure Slow Paced Fleeting Fluff."Boys Love" wud b an understatement here as it's actually an extremely Powerful Love Story in it's essence. Although Flawed,it's the imperfection & short comings of the characters that brings out the true Beauty & Perfection of this Gorgeous lil Masterpiece.

Bathing in the warm toasty sunlight on a cold crisp winter morning ~ That's how exactly this MASTERPIECE made me feel. Gorgeous, Humble, Heart Warming & Touching. A shounen ai can't get any purer than this. Add to that Aoi Aki's Melancholic, Languid yet Mystery driven, Exquisite story telling!! I was totally swept off my feet by this work of hers! I always liked her but with this one she just became One of My Favs!!

One of the Purest & Bestest BEST shounen ai EVER, that explores & portrays the depth of feelings rooted in childhood but sprouts & blossoms forth later. (And,NO. This is NOT shota, just in case you are wondering.)

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
