I'm not looking for yaoi or shounen-ai animes - rather, I'm just looking for a good anime that happens to include a male gay romance in there as a sub-plot. No ambigious or implied romance - a proper romance of them expressing each others' love for one another, preferrably with kissing and such included.

I got irritated somehow.
don't be half-hearted, you should try to watch the real one tho, it's good lol
I could recommend you some good sho-ai anime & manga if you're looking for the proper one...

... what the hell are you talking about? I WANT proper romances. But why can straight people get proper romances in ANY anime, while us homosexuals must go to romance-centered gay-genre of anime to find it? God forbid there could for instance be an anime out there centered around fantasy fighting and action that happens to include a male gay romance in it, huh? -_-

People seem bizarrely averse to having gay men having straightforward romances in anime.

Indeed. It's like they only avoid having it because straight people find it "icky". :/

I think perhaps no.6 may be what you're looking for. It's not listed as shounen ai as sci fi/action is the main focus but there is a clear straightforward romance between the two male leads as sub plot & they do express it. The manga of it is great too!

Oh yeah, that one. I keep trying to look for it on DVD, but it doesn't seem like it's possible to get that way. I can only find "Blue Submarine No 6 DTC Complete Collection" - and I don't think that's the same thing. XP

I know there are probably ways to watch No.6 online, but I'm a collector. If I end up enjoying and loving something, I want to be able to collect it on DVD.

I think amazon have it in stock but it depends where you live.. https://www.amazon.com/No-6-Complete-Collection-Blu-ray/dp/B0083QJV44

Another great one is Doukyuusei . It's a film though & shounen ai but it presents the relationship in a fairly realistic & simple way IMO(I'm bi in real life). Although romance is the main focus of the plot & it might be hard to find on dvd as it's fairly new..

Ah, okay. ^^; Well, that's blu-ray anyway, and I prefer DVD, so... XP I don't know.

Oh? Okay. Never heard of this Doukyuusei. But yeah, couldn't find that either when I looked for it. Good god, why is it so hard to find stuff? XP lol
