Our club's treasure: the navigation! ___ It's a bit late to be creating this but I figured we should since this'll be a club reliant of user contributions, getting to know each other may be good. So say anything about yourself, anything really. Why you like BL, why you joined. I'll start, my name is Cynthia. I started reading BL 2 yrs ago, the same time around I started anime. My first BL was Sekaiichi Hatsukoi and I created this club because I always had a difficult time finding specific things to read. There isn't a deep reason behind it, I just like reading it more than anything, and also because mal is a huge place with a great database accessible to a lot of people. Hope we get along  |

| Whoa Frost you started a long time ago o_o |
|
| Hiiiiiiii..... Im Ranoom. Not my real name but.... Lets just stick with that. I think i start reading Bl in 2012 or maybe late 2011.... Not sure though... I do remember my first bl. anddd it was the finder series. Guess not the best place to start but it got me in to yaoi so.... shout out to Yamano ayane. O/ |
| hi~~ im reira, i was interested in "japanese cartoons" since childhood. i learned those were called anime in... 2005? i was 12 i think and my fav anime was shaman king back then. when i was searching for SK manga ive found some.. hentaii djs.. and i actually though those were legit parts of the manga(lol) so ive read them all like "whoaa anna! why are you cheating on yoh? :( OMG why are pissing on ryuu!!?" and when i've finished reading those i clicked on the other section, the "yaoi" section and then i was like "ive no idea what the hell ive just witnessed but i F**KING loved it!". anddd yea, it's the begging of it all. :P tho since my english was quite poor and there were nearly no fansubbers for my language it was hard to watch anime and to read manga. now that ive improved my english to something tolerable ive started to translate BL to my mother language ^^ woa rothrock, your manga list is pretty impressive for just 2 years! ive been reading manga (steady) for 7 years and yours is bigger than mine. |
| It's safe to say you prolly read more BL than me, I also read Shounen and Shoujo so there's that. I only focus on BL more now :) |

| Oh okay, it's about to increase more that I've made this club :v I've put my manga on-hold |

| Hey! Mayuka here~ I've been watching anime since I was 8-ish but I got into it seriously at the age of 15. I'm 18 now. My first BL was "Kono Danshi, Ningyo Hiroimashita" which I watched because Meganebu!'s directing was to my preference so I ended up watching every one of her works. And hey, I used to be super homophobic but that OVA made me enjoy BL. After a long while of school and studies, I watched all of Sekaiichi Hatsukoi in March and dang, I enjoyed it. It's like shoujo with the dokis but better. After a long time, I started reading more BL after running out of anime to watch. It started with Love Stage!!, then Honto Yajuu, and Seven Days... and then various other manga. I'm also into Shoujo, Sports, Mystery, and Sci-fi in terms of genres. |
| You lost me at homophobic o_o |
|
| Damn that's a shocker, glad you've experienced the wonderful thing that is BL. |
|
rothrock said: You lost me at homophobic o_o I used to be really religious and hated anything with homosexuals. Like I went on internet forums to argue against gay marriage and shit like that. But like, yaoi changed the way I thought. |
| Hello guys, I am SuddenJami, Sudden for short, and I began watching anime when I was introduced to Naruto around the age of seven. I don't really read manga and I'm a pretty big gamer. I love Fire Emblem will all my heart and my hobbies are karate, sleeping, watching anime, and writing fanfictions (even though I'm a crappy writer). My favorite genre for anime is comedy, romance, shounen-ai, and supernatural. My favorite anime of all time is Mushi-shi and just the slight mention of it makes me super happy (cause I'm a derp). I began reading shounen-ai when I was around 11 and I progressively moved in deeper. My first yaoi anime that I watched was Sekai-ichi Hatukoi and I still love it to this day and is one of the only mangas I continue reading. (I want a third season damn it! T^T) Believe it or not I get nervous easily so when I make the simplest mistake, I tend to freak out and try to fix it. When I become more comfortable with people, I'm more open and goofy, so think of it as a way that I'm relaxed around you. I hope we can all be friends! ♫ ♥ |

| I'm LOAD :> Self introductions always make me feel weird but anyways. My first BL was actually Dramatical Murder, so basically I started liking it when I first heard about the anime and VN. It's quite recent I suppose. To be honest, I'd say I read twice as much BL doujins as I do original manga... haha. And doujins are what make me get into watching new (or old) anime series. Sometimes they even get me into some gaming. So yeah. Nice to meet everyone! |
 |
| Hi~ I'm Celsia. I started shipping boy x boy couples before I even knew what BL was.. I think maybe it was because I found the girls in the shoujo I read annoying and wanted the boys to spend more time together or something lol. Anyway, I read more doujinshi than original manga, just got into BL manga for only about two years. Nice to meet everyone! |
Celsia said: I think maybe it was because I found the girls in the shoujo I read annoying and wanted the boys to spend more time together or something lol. Same. BL is like taking the fluff and goodness from shoujo but taking out the annoying indecisive main female. xD |
| Hello Hello~ I was invited to join so here I am. ^.^ I'm Ajisaitea or Ajisai and I am of course a BL fan. My first BL was Wild Rock and I must say I was so shocked by it that it took me 5yrs to try another one. I guess you can say I wasn't ready to admit that I liked to read things of the BL nature at that time. But now I love it, and I read tons of it. Some of my favorite authors are Kanbe Akira, Minase Masara and Tenzen Momoko. |
| Nice to see another Tenzen Momoko fan, I love her works as well~ |
|
| Most people I find who like BL don't know her works. She is very under rated and it's sad. She tells such nice story's and her art style is so pretty. |
| Thanks, guys I have another author to check out :D |
| Hello guys! You can just call me ika and I'm a ten count trash. lol I love to play BL games and scanlate. I've been a fan of BL/Yaoi since 2002 ✧⁺◝(●˙▾˙●)◝⁺✧ |
| Got a lot of veterans here :> |
|
| Hello, everyone! My name is YaoiIsGood! On some other sites I'm called YaoiGirl, so I'll answer to either. I've been into BL/Yaoi since I was about 15-16 years old... so for about 7-8 years now. When I first found out about this site I went through the whole list of yaoi labeled titles and downloaded all the ones I could find or read them online. I finished the entire list in about a years worth of school, and then went through the list again for new titles the following 6 months after that. I became quite the fujoshi in a short amount of time. I fell in love with forbidden relationships long before I started yaoi. I still read a LOT of shoujo manga but yaoi really fixes my craving for romance. Other things about me: I'm 23 years old, I have a 3 month old son, I've only ever been with one person: my current boyfriend and father of my son, Cody. He's very much an uke (short, small stature, cute) in appearance but he has a seme personality. >w< I've also been to Japan as well as taken 3 years of the language in high school. I'm pretty rusty now, though. I love Japanese culture and music very much. And I hope I can get along with all of you. :) |
| Welcome :) lol poor Cody, jk. |
|
rothrock said: Welcome :) lol poor Cody, jk. Haha, no you're right in the ball park. He hates when I call him uke. He is sensitive about his height since he's only 5'2". And thank you for the warm welcome. :) |
| Hellooooo ^.^!!!!! My name is Nikki wich is one of the reasons i chose this name. I physically have a few similarities with the anime character plus the fact that i do have pink hair problably helps a lot! Im 25 and ive been watching/reading yaoi for about a year only but i think i went totally nuts about it! I buy pretty much all the mangas i can in a store i found close to my house mouhahaha! What else emhhh... I love pets xD! Im a very expressive and direct person and i hope i can get along pretty well with every1 here :D!!! |
 |
| Awww i have a cat also but i love roddens so i got a lotttts of them loll my husband says id be happy being the owner of a zoo Q.Q! I got a headhog a rat my lovely bunny my chinchilla and the mini hamsters soo cuteeee ^.^!!! |
|
| Hey, I'm Smurph. I love all things orange. I love yaoi too, but I also enjoy seinen, horror, and action/adventure manga because manga is awesome. I don't watch as much anime because I find it more time consuming. I'm still fairly new to the BL world, but I'm working as hard as I can to read everything within my grasp. My first yaoi, Rutta to Kodama, I actually found by accident on a hentai site, and after realizing how adorable the genre was I went searching for more (kind of a weird start, but whatever, it worked). Shoujo manga is largely unsatisfying to me, though I still read it from time to time, so at this point yaoi is how I get most of my romance. I hope to get along with everyone here; I generally do better with these smaller more tight-knit clubs. Anyway, nice to meet you all. |
| Hello! Welcome :) nice to meet you too. Surprising to hear Rutta to Kodama on a hentai site lol. |
|
| Hello. My name is Elif. I'm 25 years old. Actually I like both BL and GL, but it's hard to find GL with good quality since yaoi is more popular. My first BL manga was Sakura Gari, after that I read Totally Captivated and Tight Rope. These 3 are special to me :) My first BL anime was Seitokaichou ni Chuukoku (Hey Class President), I was surprised to hear Gintoki's voice in a BL anime =)) Sugita Tomokazu never fails to impress me. Well, I find this club very useful, I hope we get along. @rothrock, thank you for inviting me :) Yoroshiku onegai shimasu. |
| Hello :D Welcome and no problem! |
|
rothrock said: Hello! Welcome :) nice to meet you too. Surprising to hear Rutta to Kodama on a hentai site lol. lol i actually read rutta to kodama on a hentai site(fakku) too :D hi angelica6661989, im from turkey, too ^^ |
| Hi! Abigail Ranz desu. You can just call me Abby/Abi, but I don't mind any other nicknames actually. ;) I'm 26 turning 27 (am I the oldest so far?), been watching anime since three years old, reading manga since four or five (a great way to know your ABCs, I tell you lol). Started on BL when I was 14. My first attempt on reading BL manga (which was Gravitation), my heart went erratically fast and my face turned really hot only on a mere kiss scene (which when I reread it was more like a peck) that I had to skip it. Ol' times, 'ol times xDDDDDD My points always go to manga with deep plot dramas or great, flowing comedies instead of arts. In fact, some of my friends told me that I have a weird taste in arts lol. I also the kind who ship straight canon pairing even though I slash-shipped the characters with other male chara if I find them lovely. My general info is on my page, but it's nothing interesting. :)) |
| Hello Abigail. I think you're the oldest so far c: along with Mirai and Angelica. I've read so much now that my tastes are greatly influenced by artwork. You'll find a lot of people here with similar taste :D we've only got a few active people here so don't be afraid to join in, welcome to the club. It's pretty fun :P |

Ol' times, 'ol times xDDDDDD LOOOL I FEEL YA! When I first started off with Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, I was like frantically fangirling over the "smut" scenes as I never felt that way with your normal shoujo manga (even the smut..) |
| hello y'all n_n I'm mocha-chan (I am not creative at all and such a caffeine lover) I joined this club some days ago, usually for reference only purposes but I thought I'd try introducing myself since I don't know many BL lovers out there T_T~ (actually only one, it's a sad world ._.) my history with anime actually goes a long way back, about when I was 9 (I'm 22 now). but I'm much more into reading than watching! I was introduced by a friend at that age (she showed me Sailor Moon), since then we still have this passion within us, to the point of going broke on ami-ami ;_; (anyone else? no, oh OK then T_T) but I will stop babbling >_<... I am actually a new born in the amazing yaoi world, I started reading like months ago, and that's the reason I joined MAL: so I could keep track of the titles I've read. what got my curiosity awaken was dreaming about KuroFai (from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE) happening for real <3 that was how I started looking for BL titles. my first one was Kyuuso wa Cheese no Yume wo Miru (and then it's sequel), which I thought was great but kinda painful ;_; I usually prefer when things turn out alright and when they get together like in the first chapter bwahaha 8D currently my favorites are Haru wo Daite Ita, Totally Captivated, and the Warui series ♥~ I tend to read only works that have been finished so my heart won't suffer >_< still there are some ongoing things like Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai that I really look forward to n.n well I've said way too much, I'm so sorry! T_T~ anyways, nice meeting everyone! |

| I confused the last post of the thread to be "mayukachan" lol. Hello mochachan. Welcome to the club, one of my favs still remain to be the Warui Series since I started to read. It's good you came out and introduced yourself, I'm always wondering who's using the club in the shadows. |
|
| thanks for welcoming me, rothrock! yeah, I thought I should do it even though it's not really like me. I hope to have read as many as you someday T_T~ I'll probably return to your profile to look for titles if you allow me (I hope it didn't sound too creepy XD), because I feel there are a lot out there that isn't tagged. yes, the Warui series was one of my firsts and I love it, still I hate the fact that Shouwaru Ookami ga Koi wo Shita Rashii is still ongoing >_< I hate waiting. |
| Lol it's okay, using other people's lists is normal here. Yeah I hate waiting too ;_; |

| Hello everyone! I'm claudia, 22 years old. I'm an easy-going person, a dork who loves japanese culture, an otaku and pervert as hell aka fujoshi. Yes, I love BL and a lot of different genres. I've been watching anime since I can remember and discovered the beautiful BL world 12 years ago, all thanks to my curiosity and the accidental kiss that naruto and sasuke had(lol), you can say that CLAMP helped too. The firsts Bl mangas that I read after watching all the available ovas, were from Takanaga Hinako and from there It went down hill (lol). I love a lot of mangakas and have read all their works (if they have been translated of course xD). Anyway, nice to meet you all and let's get along :) |
| Welcome, Claudia! c: |
| Hey Claudia, welcome! 12 yrs wow :o |

mayukachan said: Welcome, Claudia! c: Thanks!!mayukachan*A* rothrock said: Hey Claudia, welcome! 12 yrs wow :o jejeje thank you rothrock and yep, 12 years xD it's been a long and painful trip too many otps that have ruined my life |
| Hello, I recently joined. I prefered to be called by my screen name or any shortening of it. I'm a teenager, I don't exaclty remember when I started...perhaps around 14? 13? But when I started it was shounen ai manga mostly. Too embarrassed to go further. But over time I moved from shounen ai to yaoi, and now I love yaoi manga, anime, games, etc. I'm a fan of BL comedies. Since I started with manga, I more into BL manga than anime so I haven't seen many BL anime. Now adays I just read random yaoi manga on manga sites. I've become too lazy to read those super long ones or try to find good ones. ONE DAY I will read them. I must. |
