Kyoumo said: It's only the first episode and there's already so many yaoi jokes lol. The devs know their prey I mean their public xD I like the episode, simple and ejoyable. |
| IT'S SPECIAL YAOI BOOK |

| thank you but f- my sick curiosity xD (i hate octopuses but I went there |

| Hilarious, love the pacing and the voice actors were great. Animation is really static but I don't mind since the art style is so distinctive and the show shoots along so snappily you barely notice. I feel like this show will be big in the west.. P.S Paper bag boy is CUTE! |
| Hmm quite the view on bookstore staff there. But the bookstore sure challenges those views with its staff's unique looks. Nice reference to Gakkougurashi there. The difficult to find item though was quite the surprise. The insight into book requests and genre's was quite interesting. BL is a surprisingly popular genre it seems. Quite the amusing first episode though one that was quite weird in the taste's shown. |

| This is my fifth times watching honda's appearances. |

| lmao yo this is actually so relateable as a BL fan hahahahaha anyways im kinda mad this anime is too short :( |
| Perfect for gloomy sundays. |

| This episode was freaking HILARIOUS!! After watching it I went to check out Ogeretsu Tanaka-sensei, and was pleasantly surprised to find Yarichin Bitch-bu xDD And then I read the manga and slowly turned from feeling amused and entertained to omgosh I love these characters to oh no I need to know whether they get their happy endings! This is the s*** people. Go check it out if you're a BL fan! |
| This was pretty hilarious |
| the animation theme with the characters seems a great mix!!! |
| When you're watching an anime and you see your weird ass making an alternate universe cameo @ the sista with the horror-looking manga. This was a funny and cute episode! Like, to be honest, they did some roasting, but they also kinda praised the passion of "yaoi girls" and I think that was sweet. I mean what do you really have if you don't have passion? Plus, some of those girls were pretty cute, and they didn't just go for the "all yaoi fans are ugly wierdos" idea, which I appreciate that they didn't do. He was right though... that guy actually was pretty handsome. Poor guy. lol Maybe I'll show this anime to my manager. o3o I work at my college bookstore. |

| It's hard to put this in words, surely, a first for me, and I'm already invested. I really love the take on the comedy of this show, I love the way they censore other Manga/Anime and still manage to deliver the jokes with the same comedic effect. Honda is a great protagonist as well, he's quick, on point and very entertaining. This is going to be hard to remain just as engaging seeing how I think they will have the bookstore be the one and only place that runs the action, it's really difficult, but I trust the guys in charge. The art style is great as well, with a mild mix of Mob Psycho 100 and the typical American cartoon styles. I also appreciate tha vast trivia being thrown in all of the conversation, very informative on both the Japanese culture and the Anime/Manga medium. |
| Woah.. actual English not Engrish? Ah yeah classic fujoshi xD Last time I heard from Tamura Yukari, it's 13 y.o. but full-fledge fujoshi already.. and she's worried about it too That foreign otaku portrayal though I want those "Kingdom" books! The anime is really addicting! Lol BL fangirls are amazing, I will never understand them xD |

| Good stuff! The humor was on point, and the art was nice despite the limited animation. I also enjoyed all of the references and "Special Yaoi Book!" was comedy gold. Also, even though the setting and characters are all different, the style of the show is reminding me a lot of Tonkatsu DJ Agetarou, I wonder if there's some overlap between the staff. |

| taking jabs at fujoshi's yea, i'm sold |
 |
| All I could notice is that Honda-san shook that handsome man's left hand haha |

 |
| Lmfao that was hilarious. Those foreigners killed me. |
| So weird, haha. It's like meme meets anime ^^" I'm happy about getting new recs from these refs tho :P |
| Not my type of comedy. I hope that this show will improve. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| That sure is quite the powerful first episode and going directly in a subject like fujoshi and BL... pretty fun setting! |
 |
| Honestly, it's just a more or less realistic portrayal of a Japanese manga/light novel oriented bookstore? What's the appeal here. |
| I was planning to watch this when it first aired but I never really got the opportunity to do so but now that I've seen the first episode, I'm positive that this series would be my cup of tea~ I'm liking the references to stuff I know and the humor was a hit for me so far. I'd like to say that Honda should start practicing speaking English more because of manga's now worldwide demographic but his attempts to do so are gold. Boy's Love bringing people from all walks of life together like that is certainly something I can picture in my mind from what I've seen. |
 |
| The skeleton is hilarious |
 |
| Very fun episode, I use to dream about hentai too :D |
 |
| I'd like to add that as a fellow yaoi girl that is exactly how it is when at the bookstore (jk) |
| desu desu binches |
| So many references here and there lmao |
| Holy,what a strong first episode! Sooo many references, Amazing! And i've always love hearing those "foreigner accent" in anime so that's a big plus. Looking forward to this anime! Also The way the old guy said "Manga" has made me laugh more than i should xD |

| Qué risa, por dios. |
 |
| I didn't expect to see a BL story from the first episode! Ogeretsu Tanaka, I bought and read it a while ago, so when the name came up, I laughed. |
