Well, it has the "shounen-ai" tag, so I guess you can expect some "moments".

You can check the Chinese anime titles associated with the following club:

I can't tell the genres of all though--you have to check them out yourself :)

I would recommend Reikenzan.

Watch Tales of Demons and Gods and Douluo Dalu as well if you don't mind 3D animation.

A bunch of dudes blushing while taking a shower together? It sounds masculine, doesn't it?

What happened to the shounen-ai tag? It disappeared a while ago.

But is this really shounen-ai?

It has the Shounen Ai tag but there is no homosexual content in the anime at all. From what I read it is because in 2016 China banned all depictions of homosexuality, sexual assault, reincarnation and other things from the "dark side of society" (their words) on TV. Though that doesn't explain why spirit pact was allowed 2 seasons maybe there is a loop hole, like they kissed to obtain power not romance.

Yes it has its moments of guy closeness, now that the elephant in the room has been
pointed out let's remember that "Mo Dao Zu Shi" is probably the best Chinese or Korean anime to date. Or is there another non Japanese anime that can rival it.
