I’m enjoying the manga dynamics and the couple is adorable, but the passing rape comments, incest and ML’s sexuality being super confusing. Like all these things throw me off, and to clarify on ML’s sexuality, he says he’s ‘not gay’ but he’s literally dating a man. He’s ‘not into men’ but aki is special. Oh and then the weird representation they have with gay men with that one ‘rival’ making him super weird… and then drawing highschoolers have sex

It’s too much even the troupe and the couple dynamics can’t make me continue

    Is a Japanese thing, I read that they still have a negative view on full homosexuality deep down even among fans of BL/Yuri

    Like, they can't be explicity gay, they need to have this rundabout/similar to demisexuality view of falling in love with someone regardless of gender, but at the same type straight up deny being gay.

    Like this people can read this and still be shocked or against the existence of LGBT+ stuff in real life, very complicated.

the quality of everything (translations, artstyle) dramatically went down in season 2. translations were super inconsistent with their names being translated to english words and the change from english names to korean ones that always changed (thank you to those who put effort to translating it though)

artstyle looks completely different, the characters don't have that same flair, and the ending was confusing. ending was sad but didn't make sense, and there was no explanation, clarification or comfort, season 2 was absolute dumpster fire of a mess - the whole concept with the ML was icky too, you'll if when you read it.

season 1 was good though, nice cute moments and no bad troupes but the ending again wasn't so happy (though if you'd like to still read it, i'd say stop when you finish season 1)

Sorry ya’ll, i know this is my second time posting this exact same request and the ones who replied delivered amazingly, but is it seriously this hard to find gay men in BL LOL.

Looking for any BL with normal guys (no yaoi hands buff dude, or super hyper feminine dude that’s basically a guy drawn as a girl) and has either; a two gay characters, open or not, or simply no homophobia, internalised or not.

    Idk if this’ll help but there’s a manga called ‘until i meet my husband’ which is actually just a comic of the authors real gay relationship, its really good and realistic

    Idk if this’ll help but there’s a manga called ‘until i meet my husband’ which is actually just a comic of the authors real gay relationship, its really good and realistic Mei

    That’s actually the manga that got me back into BL! A manga made by a gay author who’s now happily married and it’s an anecdote of his life? SO SWEET.

    even though i’ve already read it, thank you for the rec!

Hii I just read some fantasy action intense angst and fell in love with the epilogue of the MCs together.

Is there any good BLs with a couple that ends up together and the author continues to write about their relationship instead of ending the BL there? It feels like the author’s main plot point was the relationship and they end it once it’s over (and sometimes it leaves me hanging, seriously it’s like being edged 24/7)

Secondary request is established relationship, I don’t mind reading some too!

Bonus points if there’s a coming out either to the public, their family, or their friends

Examples: The third ending, Ameagari no Bokura ni Tsuite (+ ESPECIALLY the sequel!!)
