I think that one of my main problems when reading yaoi is one of three things: [also, 'char.' is short for character cuz i aint writing all that] 1) The art style sucks (it's either visually horrendous, or the style has no emotion- doesn't make you feel anything)+ story is shit (may include: bad plot development, rape-that-wants-to-make-itself-seme-consensual, bad relationships which involve a ton of 'development' built upon the fact that some mangaka like to incorporate misunderstanding into their work *inserts that 'LOVE FANTASY' clip from Saiki K*) 2) The art style is passable (maybe it makes you feel 'something' in like two separate panels throughout the manga, or just once every chapter throughout the manga, but for most of the story, you feel nothing) + story is alright (may include: minimal char. development, if any, or maybe the char's have a really tiny arc or smth but it doesn't disrupt the story at all, which is what a freaking arc is for gods sake; "love makes you do crazy things~"- idk what that means, but i'll leave it up for interpretation i guess; SEX IS EXCUSED FOR BEING RAPEY BC THESE IDIOTS STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT 'NO' MEANS; hahaha i dont know what im still doing here) 3) THE ART IS P GREAT(you can feel what the characters are feeling through a single frame, or the style brings a lot of 'motion' to the story) + story is unique and the mangaka really knows how to write a story, no matter what the plot is (may include: emotional moments around pretty much every corner; there doesn't always have to be development, but if there is, it's consistent and reincorporated throughout the manga, and every character either acknowledges the development in some way or problems are built upon and solved by it; "NO I DONT WANT TO">>"Well, okay">>[later, when both parties appreciate the other's company as a human being and not a way to just have sex and move on:] "Hey, do you want to?">>"Sure. Also, I love you as a person, and not as a physical being to release my frustrations.">>"I love you too."; And if the characters *do* have non-consensual sex, they don't just move on, but they instead recognize that both parties have actual emotions, and the emotions can be molded into something greater.)
Sorry that was so long, I had to really get my feelings out somewhere ╮(￣▽￣)╭ If you read this far, thx, and follow me on the Yaoi Worshippers Amino i guess: @legiteros I love you all and I hope you're all having a good summer- even if it is just lying in bed reading yaoi and eating chips (⌒▽⌒)

I REALLY FUCKKKINNNNNG LOVE HAJI'S STYLE AND UGHHHH THESE CHARACTERS' PERSONALITIES ARE ON-POINTTTT(if that even is a thing)!!! I think that one of my main problems when reading yaoi is one of three things:
[also, 'char.' is short for character cuz i aint writing all that]
1) The art style sucks (it's either visually horrendous, or the style has no emotion- doesn't make you feel anything)+ story is shit (may include: bad plot development, rape-that-wants-to-make-itself-seme-consensual, bad relationships which involve a ton of 'development' built upon the fact that some mangaka like to incorporate misunderstanding into their work *inserts that 'LOVE FANTASY' clip from Saiki K*)

3) THE ART IS P GREAT(you can feel what the characters are feeling through a single frame, or the style brings a lot of 'motion' to the story) + story is unique and the mangaka really knows how to write a story, no matter what the plot is (may include: emotional moments around pretty much every corner; there doesn't always have to be development, but if there is, it's consistent and reincorporated throughout the manga, and every character either acknowledges the development in some way or problems are built upon and solved by it; "NO I DONT WANT TO">>"Well, okay">>[later, when both parties appreciate the other's company as a human being and not a way to just have sex and move on:] "Hey, do you want to?">>"Sure.
