What sets it apart from the average cultivation donghua? It’s a boys-love story in the making. Just like the other two that I had mentioned above, Scumbag System also has a cultivation-themed story but it shares a lot of similarities with cultivation donghua such as A Mortal’s Journey to Immortality, A Will Eternal, and Martial Universe.
So, he possessed the villain in the game, and knowing how that character’s demise will be, he dared to challenge the system and destiny itself to avoid the imminent unfortunate event that will befall him. My addiction with BL genre has started in October 2016 (I did watch lots of Hong Kong, Chinese, American, European gay themed movies before) and then I started watching animes, reading mangas and totally became obsessed. Just like our typical isekai anime, Scumbag System transported its main character from the real world inside a game that he blatantly insulted. Yeah, we have transmigration or isekai element in this Chinese anime. The third donghua that is based on the work of Mo Xiang Tong Xiu is the Scumbag System and has the element that many of you might be quite familiar with – isekai. Scumbag System main characters: Bing He and Shen Qingqiu
Akihiko is an author and he tutors Misaki after Misaki’s older brother asked him for help to get. The main couple is about Misaki and Akihiko.
The popular Junjou Romantica series is about 3 couples. Here are 25 anime that are part of the LGBTQ. However, if you don’t want to watch donghua and prefer to watch anime, then you can check my previous post on LGBT-themed Anime Recommendations where I have listed both yaoi and yuri anime. The storylines within that category aren’t that bad, and some are great. So far, I only see love and support for boys-love donghua on the internet from donghua fans both local and international.Īs I have mentioned, I would love to share a list of boys-love Chinese anime for the yaoi fans to add to their plan-to-watch anime list or even to those who are simply fond of it or can tolerate it. What’s even more amazing is that I hadn’t seen so many haters of Chinese bl anime or danmei among its local audiences compared to the Japanese animation where yaoi anime are often subject to the scrutiny of the highly masculine shounen-genre fans that is dominating the anime community in terms of numbers.
To a culture where LGBT issues are still not openly accepted in the public, it is amazing that the boys-love story still thrives. So, such is the case too even in Chinese animation where censorship is rampant. This is a sensitive topic for some, even fans of Japanese animation still have that boundary set between yaoi anime and the other genres. For those of us who’ve been waiting decades for a realistic gay relationship in anime, Yuri on Ice is here to please.Hua Cheng and Xie Lian (Heaven Official’s Blessing) Plus, each of them has heartfelt reactions to scenes like the kiss on the ice and Yuuri telling Victor to quit being his coach, further cementing them as real human beings with their own lives and feelings who desperately want to spend their lives with each other. Yuri on Ice avoids the common boys love trope of obvious seme and uke roles by having Yuuri and Victor be close in age, blurring their teacher/student relationship with moments of genuine friendship, and making Victor more flamboyant and girlish than Yuuri while still retaining his manliness. It’s a fairly standard sports anime otherwise, but the adorable and realistically structured romance between Yuuri and Victor is definitely the highlight of the show. Perhaps the most mainstream and popular of all boys love anime these days is Yuri on Ice – the 2016 ice skating show that actually had the balls to confirm a gay male relationship between the two main characters. If you’re a longtime boys love fan and want something that bucks the trends, check out Hitorijime My Hero. Masahiro and Kousuke also face realistic prejudice against their unorthodox relationship, and their struggles with the world around them strengthens their bond all the more. Since these two knew each other beforehand and all romantic moments have clear consent, there isn’t as much of an uncomfortable status difference between them as tends to happen in similar boys love relationships between a superior and an underling. He thought he’d never see his hero again, but a year later, Masahiro finds out that Kousuke is his new math teacher! Will he be able to get closer to his beloved Kousuke, or will their different stations in life keep them apart? Our young protagonist, Masahiro, was resigned to being bullied by neighborhood gangs, but that all changed when a mysterious figure known as Kousuke Oushiba saves him from his plight. This anime takes the common teacher/student romance and brings it closer to the real world and modern sensibilities.
