Not a fan. Yuri /Yaoi isn't my cup of tea I suppose. >:
This is good for others who like it I guess.. so hope it turns out for people who like the anime series.

(inhale) YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

That is all I need to say on this subject.

No he's not "different", stop being ignorant. People can like whatever genre they want. Your insistence to keep to your position is annoying and stupid. It's like saying shoujo is only for girls, and shounen is only for guys. When those aren't even close to being fact.


Except that he is different. But no one said that being different is a bad thing. Most men do not want to watch a relationship between two men, mostly because it makes them feel uncomfortable. It's not ignorance, that's just the plain truth. Now, some men don't mind, and some actually enjoy it (although most are either gay or bisexual, but, then again, I'm personally bisexual and I don't like yuri, so that logic isn't always applicable.)

I can't believe I actually have to say this, but....please stop replying to Theobob/Theobobb/The0bob whatever. He is a troll that keeps making alt accounts to carry on the trolling of his last banned account.

(so sad, he is a sooo great guy who knows sooo much about BL even if he hates this genre... ^_^ )


I will be happy if there is a new Junjo Romantica season, I still prefer JR than Sekaiichi Hatsukoi... we have enough tsundere everywhere to not have also one in BL anime MAIN character! -_- (but I hate Junjo terrorist! even if I like Miyagi, I hate Shinobu!)

It's not like we (BL lovers, not only hardcore fujoshi ^^) have a lot of choice all around isn't it? Not even a new serie each season!
Until now, how many BL TV SERIES did you have? Gravitation (like 2-3 kisses), Loveless (kisses (underages -_-) and even shoujo-ai), Sukisho (more fangirl-service than "real" BL), Gakuen Heaven (they chose the worse route for the stupid main chara, and even no more than a light kiss...), Mirage of Blaze (I don't even consider it as BL but still MAL use the "shounen-ai" tag), Monochrome Factor (really? what a joke! just some funny fangirl-service and it's not even a BL manga adaptation!!!), Patalliro (well this is great but... 1983, almost 30 years...), Togainu no Chi (hahahahaha!!!! hardcore BL game adaptation without BL or shounen manga adaptation?), Uraboku (NOTHING BL, shounen-ai fanservice, not even a kiss!), Yami no Matsuei (we had a kiss, maybe even two, but it was not like the two chara wanted it, even BL hater can watch it without fainting!), and the latest ones: Junjo Romantica S1&2 and Sekaiichi Hatsukoi S1&2!!!

We cannot even make a comparison with the number of ecchi/loli/moe animes! There are even hentai OVA every months, if not every weeks... BL? around 1 OVA/season!

But I'm curious, for those who said "there are so many good manga not adapted yet"! Please tell me which one would do a BL TV SERIE (at least 12ep)!!! I think about it and didn't find so many! Maybe around the BL novels, but my kanji reading level is not good enough to read novels yet so... for me just BL/shounen-ai manga!
- Silver Diamond: fantasy, very very soft shounen-ai (Kyou kara Maou level, more shoujo than BL) but not finished yet, and need much more than 12ep (few 12ep season can also be made but did the fan will really bought the dvd? KKM novels are quiet famous even for non manga reader so...)
- Koori no Mamono no Monogatari: fantasy, very light shounen-ai, but 24vol so also need a lot of episodes... still more shoujo than BL
- Crimson Spell: 1vol/year at most, too much hard sex, if you cut this for a tv serie, there are not enough for 12ep, and Ayano Yamane Japanese fans complain before for IkokuRomantan that the drawing was bad on the OVA so I hear that there will probably never have other OVA (which is different the animix!) for her work
- Karamete de Kudoite: also only 6vol yet, too much sex in the first vol so probably not enough material for 12ep, but the sex scenes can easily be censured so maybe later ^^
- Love Mode & ZE (Shimizu Yuki), each of them with 11 vol, can be adapted. The two series are licensed outside Japan. Not so many sex scenes, but it's an important part of the story in ZE (possible with censure)
- Koi suru Bokun & Challenger (Takanaga Hinako) togehter 12vol but already OVA for "Koi suru bokun", can still be a 12+ episode TV series, can easily be censured for TV broadcast
- Banana Fish (Yoshida Akimi), 19vol but old 1985-1994 and not BL, shoujo (light shounen-ai implied, and same "BL relationship" between Ash and XXX than in Berserk between Griffith and rich guys)
- Sono Yubi Dake Ga Shitteiru/Only the Ring Finger knows (5 novels) can maybe also do it, I just read the first two so I don't very know... was quiet boring (at least in english)

What else? For a 12+ TV series, we need at least 6vol series if a lot of scenario, much more if there are too much sex scene who must be censured!
So, any ideas? I think I mostly know 1-3vol BL manga, or the previous ones!

ugh, why?!

There are quite a few BL manga that deserve to be animated much more than a 3rd series of this.

To all the people who complain every time Nakamura's manga is getting an adaptation: it's Studio Deen we're talking about, are you sure you want your favourite, "much more deserving of animation" manga series to be adapted into anime by them? Really now?


I still don't understand why people always bashing Studio Deen! Like all studio there are goods and bads works, but it's an affair of taste! I like KKM, Nurarihyon, Poyopoyo, Shounen Onmyouji, Haunted Junction, Hetalia series, Fruits Basket, Rave (sadly never ending anime but...), Gravitation (better than the manga I think) even Starry Sky, 07-Ghost (too slow, but beautiful), Tactics (but I would like a second season), Get Backers (fangirl service for a shounen/ecchi adaptation is so funny!), Ueki, not really Weiss Kreuz series but bishounen are always welcome, specially in a moe/ecchi world! Junjo Romantica and Sekaiichi Hatsukoi also weren't a bad adaptation (it's just the manga who is not great ^^) for a TV series... too much censorship but once again, it's TV series, so different from OVA!

Ziwan said:
Let's see, manga series that have enough material to make a full-length TV series and require little censorship (if require at all):
Golden Days
Komatta Toki ni wa Hoshi ni Kike!
Bingo!
Ryuu no Yuigon

Less material, more censorship needed, but I'd love to see them animated:
Nanahikari
Yuuutsu na Asa


Komatta Toki ni wa Hoshi ni Kike! I forgot this one! but if I remembered well it's much more shoujo than BL! I mean, it's cute shounen-ai and I like it, but by comparison with JR/SiH there are not much (not at all?) "BL action" no? Still I would like to see it, but I think we will probably have Super Lovers adaptation instead, since the manga seems pretty famous here.
Golden Days, even with the "shounen-ai" tag, it's published in Hana to Yume mag, so it's more like 100% shoujo! and we also need good shoujo manga adaptation, I know ^_^
Yuutsu no Asa, just 3vol since 2007! I would love to have adaptation from Hikada Shouko's manga, but I think OVA would be better! First because most of her works are shorts. And second because even if there are not so much sex scenes, some of them are important (Arashi no ato). I would love OVA for Arashi no Ato, Signal, Tarinai jikan
Nanahikari sounds interesting but even if it's still ongoing, I never saw one volume on bookshop/animate main position so I'm not sure if Takaguchi Satosumi's works are famous enough!
Yellow (Makoto Tateno) also could be good (I read it long time ago), but also more as OVA since there are only 4 vol.
Fujiyama Hyouta's works also could be good; but again, too short! ç_ç

Thanks for the "advertising" I will check those ones! I -almost- never hear about Hashiba Maki and Kitasato Senju (name and works)! Not like I know -not even near- all of them of course ^_^

I'm not complaining about a new Junjou season, especially because I love yaoi. But there are a few shounen-ai mangas that are quite unknown, but definetly good and would make at least good OVA's. Like Seven Days, damn, I'd die for that to be adapted. ;A;

Looking forward to this. I love me some Hiroki. Shame if the news of it being one 20 min OVA is true. If it's anything like the distribution of the TV version, it means we'll probably get 13 mins Romantica, 5 mins Egoist and 2 mins of Terrorist orz

so it's not a new season but just a 20 minute OVA?

Since Nakamura is doing the script it should be rather nice c:

I wonder why so many comments are so negative...

Junjou Romantica is SOOO good series, my first yaoi~ though it is "square-faced", like someone said, it's still damn good, it makes my heart all feel all fuzzy inside <33
Can't believe this day finally came, my prayers have been answered!!!!
MORE USAGI'S SEXY VOICE!!!! <333

now just more Sekaiichi Hatsukoi and I can die happily~<3

please it seems lately it's ether yaoi or yuri

As a yuri fan I can assure you this is not even remotely true.

I think Junjou Romantica is indeed Yaoi though...

The manga is categorized as BL.
The anime is also categorized as BL ( http://suzukisan.info/chara.html )
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

He was implying that most shows nowadays are either yaoi or yuri. That's definitely not true, especially for yuri (and what a shame, that).

I see. Sorry I misunderstood.
If what he said was true, perhaps he should add lately it's either shoujo or female-oriented (just because we have a bunch of anime this season that are like that) LOL

I surely miss Maria-sama miteru.....
