I took a long break from here because the site was going through some issues. I just recently started using it again and catching up on my reading (it’s been about 3 years) but I noticed my ‘Want to Read’ and ‘Currently Reading’ lists were empty. Titles that I was in the middle of reading were marked as ‘Already Read’ or not marked at all. The only way I knew what I was reading was because my bookmarks were still intact. The same goes for my tags…a majority of them are missing. Just wondering if anyone else went through the same. Resorting to retagging as I go through my bookmarks.
yup it happened to all of us. if by now you haven’t gotten your lists back, i’m sorry to say this but you’ll have to start them again.
It unfortunately happened to everyone in January of this year, there was huge disk crash. Everyone lost everything in their want to/reading/read lists excepts for works they either tagged or rated. Everyone has just had to help each other build their lists back up from scratch
Here’s an FAQ page on what happened: https://www.mangago.me/home/mangatopic/21255174/
Yeah I’ve been going through and updating the ones I still have bookmarks for. Thanks.
Yeah I missed all that. I just looked back in for the first time two weeks ago. Thanks for letting me know what happened.
Thanks!
The Great Reset: Back in late January, a vast load of people descended upon this website. It overloaded the servers causing a massive crash. Much was restored. But unfortunately, the disk that held our lists was irreparable. MGOs developers worked hard, but, alas, they were only able to retrieve your books if you rated or tagged them. Those that were able to be recovered were sent to your Already Read list. You'll have to sort that list as you start to rebuild all your lists.
Oh yes, the big meltdown of january. Everything is a mess.
Is it sad that I have FOMO after the fact? LMAO
LOL!! You just missed the great Freak-Out & Cry part of the Great Setback. We still get stragglers like you, but you didn't miss much -- just a lot of tears and frustrations. Since you've been gone for a while, I don't know how much this will help, but I don't want you to miss out on this either, so here ya go!!
Rebuilding Your Lists:
1. Use your previous (old) notifications to add to your reading lists. (This has been tested and works to start receiving notices again.)
2. If you have any bookmarks -- re-add them to your lists.
3. Use any previous comments (topics) you've left on stories here to help your lists.
4. Use your history (clock icon) to add to your lists. (If you see nothing, click the "Show All" link. It may show something.)
5. If you have a favorite author, find a story written by them and start adding the comics listed under their name.
6. If you follow someone look through their lists and start adding them to your lists from there.
7. If you have a favorite unofficial scan group -- use their website to add to your list. If they are defunct then use Baka Manga or another avenue to see what series, they worked on to add to your lists.
Below was created by another user to help save your lists. I use a spreadsheet, so I haven't tested this.

I’ve got 70 pages worth of bookmarks I’m going through right now. My notifications were also reset as well. That was the 1st place I checked after noticing it all the week before last. It’s not too bad though. I get to reread some of my faves that have finally been completed. But thanks so much. I now get why I got a couple of thumbs down. When I left the site in 2022, they were huge rumors of the site being taken down…fights between uploaders and even more fights cuz the uploads were trash…super bad translations… hotttt mess! But my already read has stayed intact…so there’s that.
Yeah, I didn't tag or rate as much as I should have, but I did keep an excel spreadsheet of all my titles, so I just had to add them back to their places. It took me about a week and a half to do it. And, yes, I did enjoy going back and reading some of my favorite parts or chapters as I worked on sorting out my lists.
Don't worry about the thumbs down. Some people just like giving those out. I've been ignoring all of mine, especially since I'm an older opinionated reader whose views often differ with the young'uns. ^_~
You left but the arguments and rumors remained. Although, the arguments have now included officials -- if, where, and when they should be uploaded. I'm on the officials uploads should be rare (if at all!!) side!! (^_^)
Happy Reading!!
LOL that’s SO REAL
Why is it that depending on the platform that a webtoon is on, the title of the webtoon changes?
Also, why does said platform have the right to edit the content of the webtoon instead of leaving it as is? That just means there is more than one version of the same toon online (I’m not talking about the age restricted versions). Just wondering.
...that I’ve noticed in the majority of the yaoi manga I’ve read, the uke is always crying when having sex. I can understand the first time (if they’re virgins) but not every single time. Why is that? Is it a common trope in yaoi-verse? I seriously don’t get it. IRL, it doesn’t happen that way.
The other is, why is it that when characters shout just a little too much, they catch a fever? I’m exaggerating about the circumstances but the question is still valid. I do realize overworking can lead to a compromised immune system but some of the ways I’ve seen characters get fevers or colds is baffling to say the least.
I might be a cultural thing but I really would like to get some insight.
Yaoi logic and yaoi tropes
ummm, ive never heard or read the second one happening. can you please give an example, im not really reading new yaoi stories nowadays.
It is a cultural thing. The woman in Japan is shy and « weak » (very feminine and cute) Also that is a sign the woman is not experimented in sex. Too much shouting means too much strong emotion, and showing too much emotion is weakening. Boys for example bleed when overwhelmed by too much sexual desire. Boys and girls have a cute laugh, only bad guys Or heroes losing their mind laugh with their mouth wild open. Showing emotion is not very welcome in Japan.
I don't know about the abundant coldcatching due to no medical reasons at all, I'm also very startled about that...
However, the reason they are crying so often and so much is not because of crude physical pain but rather an indication for the sensual intensity. Like, they're stimulated so much that the flowing tears are a way to release a little of that sexual excitement before getting to their actual release. It tries to illustrate just how much the stimulation borders on being almost too much to handle sensually.
Does that make any sense?
I’m talking about yaoi. Guy on guy
Oohhh! I get it now. To express emotions that can’t be put into thought bubbles/spaces. Aight. That does make sense. American erotic comics aren’t like that so I was confused as to why ukes cried so much in manga/webtoons.
Yaoi is a heterosexual romance. The uke is a female. Come on man, no one can get wet from the anus, it is a woman disguised as a man. Yaoi is mostly porn for women.
just yaoi tings
Actually, yes it can. I know first hand. Don’t try to manspalin something you really don’t know about. And no, I’m not talking about my own ass either. I’ve stuck my fingers and other things up men’s asses enough to know that it certainly does happen.
Why would you assume im a man you uncult misandrist. Ive fingered more anus than you in your entire pathetic life. Get a brain and tell your mum she raised a rude kid. Bye b.
Not a kid dude. Hehe. And FYI, it can get wet. Just not as wet as pussy...which is why you still need lube. Plus, I don’t think the LGBTQ community would appreciate what you said before either. Just cuz they’re a bottom doesn’t mean they’re effeminate or weak nor do I consider the bottom is the “female” role either. That’s an insult, plain and simple.
Yaoi is not heterosexual. It’s gay porn marketed to women. And yes you can get wet from the ass but you wouldn’t know that tho. It’s not as wet like from the front but it can get “wet”. But go off or whatever this is.
It’s been five years. You are one hell of a stubborn person. You deserve my respect and I mean it! Im not gonna argue with you lol, I was not insulting, but at that time I was probably very angry at the world in general, which I am not anymore. I hope you have a great day!
I haven’t been on here for over a year and recently I have been trying to catch up on a lot of reading. I noticed that most of my bookmarks are gone and there was one yaoi in particular that I wanted to finish reading.
It is about an impotent policeman (he saw his sister raped) who ends up working for a slutty yakuza boss who loves sucking him off because he never got hard. When the latest chapter came out (over a year ago), he had a reaction to his boss giving him head. Can y’all PLEASE tell me what happened to the manga???? I need to know what happened. Lol!
Thanks!! (=・ω・=)
saezuru wo habatakanai i think
saezuru tori wa habatakanai* sorry

It's a BL novel Sora wo Daku tori (I'm not sure about the title) written by Kitazawa Jinko
illustration: Rikuyu Chikako
Pissed because novels always have the bomb covers! But thank you!!!
It's all good!!
Ikr! I always get my hopes up for some new yummy yaoi and then bam! Another novel -___-
And no prob, I was looking for this one too and sb helped me, so it's just like returning the favor ^^
T^T it is not a mangaaaaa
YES!! This is my 3rd novel cover that got me!! LOL! The first one, I found the answer to because someone else asked. It was the one with the guy wearing a holster and some young dude with a jacket with a dragon or something it. The second was the two men in business suits and the seme had this HUGE bouquet of roses. I was heartbroken. That one looked like it was going to be steamy as hell....I mean panty soaked steamy...GAAHHHH! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ They really need to start mentioning where they pull the artwork from.
This is the first one that I was talking about.

Oh yeah, I know this one! I was devastated to learn that there's no yaoi manga by Ayumi Kasai available. They're mainly just illustrations for some BL magazine. What a pity ;_;
I've made an album with some random pics in order to find their source, so if you're interested you can take a look (some of them still remain unknown though)
http://www.mangago.me/home/album/5106/
And this one may be really helpful
http://www.mangago.me/home/album/5254/
...or is it from a novel?
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/psychedelics/mi/mi-chapter-1/2/
It's Kondo Isao (Gintama) fanart by Hatomame Sachiko..
(based on Zerochan)
Boooooooo! （￣へ￣）Oh well! Thanks though!!
I feel sorry for not as you expected..
And, you're welcome! ^^
I know I have read it before on another website but since I don't remember if I bookmarked it or not, I can't find it.
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/venus_ni_seppun/tr/128760/page/202/
Last chapter I think..
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/jounetsu_kakumei/
YOU. ARE. AWESOOOOOOMMMMMMEEEEEE!!!!!ヾ(☆▽☆) Thank ya kindly!
You're welcome. Glad to help. :)
And that's a very famous H-scene anyway.. XD
Why is it considered that? If two individuals (leave gender out of the equation) love each other and they work hard in the relationship, in my book, it is considered pure. I don't see race or color when I choose the one I am with. If they love me as much as I do and willing to go to Hell and back for each other, that is good enough for me. Would you consider bi-racial love pure as well since there is a stigma still about it?
Of course! Love is love - if you love someone and want to spend your life with them, why is it wrong (regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation?)
I was just wondering because I see a lot of comments from others saying that yaoi is pure love - like it is in its purest form or something. LOL!
Does anyone have any list recs for yaoi (manga/manhua) that has unproblematic characters? I’m tired of reading toxic stories. For once, I would like the problems to be external and not internal. Thanks!
