agreed ><
but how do u kno bout all that things?
It couldn't have been nearly as popular if it was made into yaoi. Kuroshitsuji has a lot of male fans as well and not all, or even most girls who like anime are into yaoi. Not to mention that it couldn't have been published or translated in so many countries if it had those sorts of themes.
Although I am a fujoshi and I adore Kuroshitsuji, I think the ambiguity of the homoerotic tension is what makes Kuroshitsuji so awesome. If that tension were fulfilled, I fear it would become "just another yaoi". As it is now, It's like it draws you in BECAUSE you know nothing sexual will happen. Yet, that sexual tension is still so strong. Whether between Grell and Sebastian or Ciel and Sebastian or whatever "flavor of the volume" and Sebastian (lol) it all becomes fodder for amazing fantasies, doujinshi and fanfic. Kuroshitsuji has a reach that a typical yaoi couldn't touch.
Yeah that could be and also, I swear the sexual tensions between male characters in Kuroshitsuji is so intriguing and even though I really like actual BLs, sometimes I want just hints and bromance and something like Kuroshitsuji (づ￣ ³￣)づ
They should let her choose tho. Let Kurohitsuji become a yaoi! >:(
Toboso wanted Kuroshitsuji to evolve into Yaoi but the editor said NOPE. I guess this collection is a hint of that frustration for not being able to do what she wanted with her story. Weird since all the people I know who read Kuroshitsuji are fujoshi's anyway so it's not like the popularity would have gone down
