Seiya said: Lol I'm confused by so many different views of people Generally, "Shounen-ai" Anime/Manga are much more light-hearted and tame, and most true shounen ai have no sex in them at all. I really enjoy shounen-ai. Yaoi on the other hand, is much more explicit. I do NOT watch/read yaoi. If you're interested in shounen-ai, I can give you a few recommendations. @DepravedMagi: There's plenty of shounen-ai that have consensual relationships. You've simply been watching/reading the wrong stuff. |

J_LEE_C said: Thanks lee for the recommendations but ig I will not watch themTomoya1 said: Hey guys how are hope ur doing well? Recently something has been bothering me and that is Shounen Ai. I have been watching anime for a long time but I have been through this genre. As I'm straight I never thought of watching it(I didn't mean that straight can't watch Shounen Ai) but recently one of my friends was saying about it and it hits my interest. So I wanna know about Shounen Ai genre how's it? Will I enjoy it? Is there any good Shounen Ai anime blah blah. So please give me a detail description of Shounen Ai plus if u think I should watch it please suggest me some of the good yaoi anime. Also thanks in advance. P.S-I'm a big yuri lover. El Psy Congree I CORRECTED MY POST AS I WAS MISTAKEN WITH SHOUNEN AI AS YAOI Okay OP, so are you asking about Shounen Ai or Yaoi, or both? Anyway I love the genre, my top favs are: 1. Super Lovers / Super Lovers 2 (hands down #1) https://myanimelist.net/anime/31680/Super_Lovers & https://myanimelist.net/anime/33417/Super_Lovers_2 2. Doukyuusei https://myanimelist.net/anime/30346/Doukyuusei_Movie 3. Hitorijime My Hero https://myanimelist.net/anime/33654/Hitorijime_My_Hero 4. Loveless https://myanimelist.net/anime/149/Loveless 5. Hybrid Child https://myanimelist.net/anime/11135/Hybrid_Child Completely separate / different from above rec's: I know everyone trolls with the whole 'Boku no Pico' / 'Pico x Chico' / 'Pico x CoCo x Chico' series...but if you're looking for something like that, then 'Otokonoko Delivery' makes BnP look vanilla. Just sayin. https://myanimelist.net/anime/34659/Otokonoko_%E2%99%82_Delivery @Sonal1988 what do you think, got any good ones to add? |

Sonal1988 said: Yeah but sometimes it becomes cringy. Also r u from India?When you're recommending someone about BL stuff, I'd say begin with shows or manga that do not have questionable content in it, including step-incest, abuse or paedophilia. @Tomoya1 I'd say begin with No. 6, Yuri on Ice or Banana Fish. I mean, love is love. It doesn't matter what a person's sex is tbh. |

GlowingAura said: Cool btw I think I will give Doukyuusei a watch due to so many people recommending it.Shounen ai is less rapey than yaoi so that's a plus. Jokes aside, if you really want to watch it, I'd recommend manga more. Shounen ai anime is just embarrassing, everyone is gay and the line between top/bottom is far too clear. The only one I'd recommend is Doukyuusei, neither of them are that feminine and it's not some low-budget movie. If you want manga recommendations, I have some of those too. |

I guess you won't like it, but some animes have a subplot of shonen ai... so.. the question if it bothers as a subplot. Betrayal knows my name has interesting plot without any shonen ai (it adds, if someone loves it, but really, there's not even a kiss there). |

I haven't watched a Shounen ai anime except for "Gravitation" maybe and it wasn't good. So I can at least tell you to avoid it. But I read a lot of mangas so if you're open to recommendations, I can hit you up with some. |

It is absolutely terrible once you discover more but the music is damn good. And not one person mentioned the Kono Danshi series? They're short, purely shounen ai and full consent afaik. |

My only recommendation would probably be Hybrid child. I haven't seen the anime but I read the manga, so I suppose the anime is good. |

I can't remember entirely as it's been about 7 years since I read/watched it but he was emotionally abusive, he used Shuichi for sex yet still cheated on him constantly. Afaik he never once told Shuichi how he felt in the entire manga/spinoff/novels. Tho I only read to vol 7/8 and skimmed the rest. Yuki was also in love with the guy he killed and ends up raising his kid or some shit. Edit- the guy he killed who tried to rape him/sell him to other dudes as a child. I almost forgot, when ASK raped Shuichi and how it was quickly forgotten. But it's decent enough to watch for the music, the OVA too. And obviously I liked it enough to name myself after the MC. |

Afaik he never once told Shuichi how he felt in the entire manga/spinoff/novels. Tho I only read to vol 7/8 and skimmed the rest. Yuki was also in love with the guy he killed and ends up raising his kid or some shit. I almost forgot, when ASK raped Shuichi and how it was quickly forgotten. But it's decent enough to watch for the music, the OVA too. And obviously I liked it enough to name myself after the MC. I have no plans on reading the Manga, so I'm just focused on the Anime. Do all these things you've mentioned happen in the Anime as well? All of that happens in the anime (except the kid part) but certain scenes are only implied, it's completely shounen ai. Hmm, I'm not sure if I should watch it or not then. I own it on DVD, but the box set is still factory sealed. If you have the DVD I don't see why not. But I recommend not watching dub, it was awful lol. I saw the first episode dubbed, and I didn't mind it. I tend to prefer dubs over subs, as I can't really stand the sound of seiyuu, and all seiyuu sound the same. |

But I read a lot of mangas so if you're open to recommendations, I can hit you up with some. Ah Gravitation, my first ever shounen ai. It is absolutely terrible once you discover more but the music is damn good. I specially liked the song in the OVA. Was it this one? It's been in my head since posting. I'll also mention how they changed his appearance from red hair and green eyes to pink hair and purple eyes. |

For me, an anime can be good despite being a Shonen Ai, but it would always be better if it wasn't (basically, it's a negative point for me, as I find Yaoi scenes disgusting). |

I don't really watch yoai/shounen ai, or even yuri/shoujo ai for that matter. Not that I have anything against them, simply because I'm not interested in the same plot of dubious consent between a confident gay and a once thought straight. While I don't mind watching shounen ai, I don't really enjoy yaoi, so I have no reason to watch it. As for yuri... hmmm... Doukyuusei was really good though, I'd recommend that if you're looking for a short shounen ai to experiment with. |

So if want to try a light BL story I will recommend: * Doukyuusei (as everyone has already said) - emotional * Love stage - funny and cute * Ling Qi (a Chinese animation - but has dubbed to Japanese. I have watched the Japanese version) - surprisingly good Give it a try, what can possibly happen? As I did with Sci-fi - I loved it! |

Nyaa said: lol same here cgdct💞💞Shounen Ai is basically softcore Yaoi. It's still gay, just not lewd. Personally, I avoid this genre as I don't find it interesting. I want to see cute girls in my anime, not dudes and...more dudes. But sometimes we should try something new so as most of them are suggesting to watch it Ig I will give a watch. First dukyuusei as it is preferred by most of them. |

I think Shounen Ai is supposed to be the same as Shoujo Ai. But since there's many stereotypes around gay people, most shounen Ai anime are twisted af. My recommendations are: -Doukyuusei -The Poem of wind and trees Btw: Yaoi is mostly gay porn. Shounen Ai is the romance genre. Bara is hardcore porn with muscular men xD |

NthDegree said: Speaking of shounen ai, is there anyone else who liked Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, but hated Junjou Romantica (same author)? The latter has just waaaaay too much sexual assault. Not to say the former doesn't have any, but at least it's more toned down. Shungiku Nakamura wrote Junjou first, so I think she was still learning how to be a better author when she released that. Yeah, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi is infinitely better, probably because Shungiku Nakamura was a more seasoned writer when she wrote it. The art is also a lot better in the Sekaiichi manga than the Junjou manga. Junjou looks awful in some places. Pretty sure it's just a practice thing. |

Loveless is absolute fucking garbage with its creepy age gap and shitty romance between ritsuka and the pedophilic long haired dude. Loveless is indeed trash. I once got wasted and watched the first few episodes of dub for a laugh. It was really fucking funny. |
