Can we have a BL and related manga thread?
I've picked up Ao no Flag recently, it's a coming of age type manga, but one of the boys likes the other. Also does feature some /u/ too.
Feels a bit like Shimanami Tasogare without the supernatural woman.
Also what term is used for non explicit homo now by the nips? Shounen-ai is a dead term.
We can all agree that no dicks/lightsaber dicks > redrawn dicks, right?
Don't they use BL for everything?
I just want a new chapter to this.
Oh and I guess Hitorijime My Hero can be discussed as the token airing BL anime.
I think scan groups should redraw as little as possible. Some of them delay release ages just to deface the original artwork.
Thank you user, nobody would spoonfeed me the name of this manga.
I don't think they have a term for it. If it's porn they slap R-18 somewhere and call it a day.
I know I've read that but I literally can't remember a single thing that happened in it.
>Don't they use BL for everything?
Yes. They're not infiltrated with underage little shits so they just label things as 18+ or not, with no need to come up with entirely new terms so the little shits can have a safe space like we have to here.
There's no new term, they just use the R-18 rating.
>Also what term is used for non explicit homo now by the nips?
BL and R18 BL
It depends. If the decensoring is done by the BL scanlating community then no thanks.
Makes sense yeah.
I've also read how they don't use bara at all, that's a western term only. It's just BL or Gay there depending on the audience.
Anime when?
It's the gay best friend manga. A guy finds out his classmate is gay and tries to support him by being there for him / someone he can talk to.
The guy broke up with his girlfriend though, so it looks like it'll be heading towards a pairing with them anyway.
I can't believe this became popular.
What do you mean? It's trash but it's pandering trash. It's basically your average minimal plot ecchi manga but with guys
Minimal plot? It's basically Pet Shop of Monsters without the petshop and if D was a slut.
Lightsaber dicks look less silly than oversized "realistic" ones, so yeah
I made another meta thread, if you require.
Never.
Please stop. You're spamming now. Let it rest for a while.
Why? Are you retarded? Goddammit.
Iirc bara was used years ago, but it's pretty outdated now. Why can't the western fanbases keep up with nip terminology?
>popular.
Is it, though? Obviously it sells enough to still be ongoing but in the decade it's been around no one bothered to draw a single doujin, and even for regular fanart its pixiv is pretty much dead.
I only read Ao no flag, this and Hidamari ga kikoeru.
Any other worth a damn? Shimanami tasogare is pretty annoying.
Itoshi no nekokke is cute, it's by the rakugo author
Check out Fujitobi for pure fluff.
user did you save more Fujitobi pics before her twitter was kill?
Unfortunately I didn't, senpai. I was too busy hauling mobage trash fanarts instead these past few days.
Have you tried running it on archive websites? It might potentially saved some stuff. I think there's also gook/chink twitter scrapper somewhere. I'm too busy with the events to do that shit though, sorry.
She still have her pixiv and it has tons of contents still.
Also if you're the scanlator, then just directly place it on mega if you're that paranoid.
I mean
I really didn't expect this sudden NTR but I am mad because it wasn't called for at all.
Thanks, will check out.
I really hate glasses on men though, phew.
What is this from? I want to get mad too.
FUJOSHITS GET THE FUCK OUT
>NTR
Dropped before I've even picked it up
Sugar Pain. It's only one volume so it's a quick read and the NTR really made me mad.
It's BL. The distinction is between "all-ages BL" and "R18 BL".
Every time a BL manga gets adapted before A Cruel Good Reigns I die a little inside.
Doukyuusei and its sequels are pretty good. Doukyuusei even got a pretty good movie.
Don't mind me, just posting the GOAT BL.
Thanks. I read it and the side story and that pacing almost broke my neck.
>muh everything is bad
>muh I'm a faggot with a million dumb problems
>muh bitching
It would be GOAT if Shun didn't exist.
But yukinoshita no qualia was better than that long-running trash.
And that's not pic related.
no, this is why we have
Has that even been translated yet
Is there any news on what's going to happen with Shimanami Tasogare since Hibana ended?
>it's a bury your dead gays episode
Every time. Every single fucking time.
He's fine, calm your tits.
Update next Friday right?
>not killing the gays
Yeah I just checked the raws. Still cheap. But even so I must admit I'm hooked, I care, and I can't let go. I'm afraid of the endgame though.
Best case scenario he gets over Taichi and finds another guy he can be happy with. I just want him to get comfortable enough with himself to confess first, though.
After pic related? Yeah no, that's just really unlikely.
>as if there's anything more important than you!
Pretty sure he's gonna be sad and alone while Taichi hooks up with Kuze.
TOO SOON
No best case scenario is Taichi magically turns gay (or maybe he's bi the whole time and didn't realise) and lets Touma pound his boipussi
Please author-kun I've never read a manga that has gay characters in it which has good art like this, make it a yaoi manga, Taichi and Touma are prefect together
It's fucking hilarious and has great art, why wouldn't it be.
No, please. I like the homo but straight guys magically turning gay/bi is almost as bad as gays getting corrected.
I also think the MC and the hamster are cute together.
Is there any yaoi mangas out there with artstyle like ao no flag or where the dudes actually look like dudes instead of long flowing hair types in shounen ai?
That was a pleasant read. Bubunhanten's work are always so good.
I wish more scanlators invest on good bl oneshots instead of shitty volumes that's just about everywhere.
Ganbare! Nakamura-kun!! has a cute 80s art style and it's pretty funny.
There's only a few chapters out though
I wonder if there's gonna be another misunderstanding since Itachi matches the fake ideal woman that Touma described. Anyways, there's gonna be a lot of people hating on Taichi for what he did. I don't think Touma will recover in time for the next baseball match
I've been out of the BL loop since Gravitation finished printing volumes Stateside. Is there anything really worth reading? As a whole BL art looks so much easier to stomach now.
There's 11 out right now. Nakamura and Hirose are finally getting some development together.
Don't we have a separate board for this?
One is for discussing PLOT and this is for discussing plot
No. There's a board for imagedumps and one for porn, but only Sup Forums for actual discussion.
This is the board for anime and manga discussion. This thread is discussing manga. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean that it's not discussion.
Just pick an artist you like and go from there.
i like saezuru tori wa habatakanai, but the characters can kinda look same-facey. the overall story is darker too.
Most good shit doesn't get translated because it requires more effort than run of the mill stuff with easy lingo.
Why are most BL manga so short?
Hardest thing that I've read was Momo to Manji and it got translated. I seriously thought it would never happen because of that fucking edo dialect.
I think good shit not getting translated is more about people having shit taste and preferring things that are mostly porn so not very good.
>long BL manga
>recycled "plot" and misunderstandings over and over again
Only good BL are the ones with traps. Everything else is shit.
Trapfags are the most cancerous posters on the site. Worse than footfags.
BL authors can't into long running series. They should just stick to oneshots as most them are masterpieces.
Otherwise, 2 volumes should be enough. Any further than that is just a cashgrab trash.
Seems pretty porny, but I like the artstyle
The bottoms looks exactly like the tops though and that's a little creepy
So it's just because most writers are hacks? I thought it was how BL magazines worked or something.
Well basically if it's good enough, they can be forced to keep it running (how manga magazines work in the first place). If they're hacks, that's even worse.
Nigga you in the wrong neighborhood. This is Sup Forums not /y/. Traps are more popular around here.
>good
I meant popular enough. Good =/= popular.
Not really hacks but for the most part BL isn't the type of story that can go on for a long time. It just becomes repetitive or filled with drama. Also most authors aren't popular enough to be allowed to do a certain work for longer than that. Besides most go in thinking their stuff will only be one volume long and build the story in a way that it can end at that.
BL is a niche category still and if shit doesn't sell then it'll get a single volume at most.
I could only find chapters up till 7, any links for the rest?
They're on mangago.me
Thanks!
...
I remember there was something about Eishi being worried about Takayama reading his thoughts and finding out "that", did it ever pan into what we thought it would or nah?
Not BL.
This is probably the funniest manga I've read in a while and it's a yaoi too, this is great
Birdman is so shit I'll never understand why homos like this generic shonen so much.
I love Nakamura.
Why are the good ones never fully translated?
I was tempted to buy the volume off amazon a while back because I wanted to see how it ended, but waited too long and now it's out of stock.
Anyone read any Korean stuff?
Picture unrelated.
Is there any good Korean yaoi?
Because Tanabe used to deliver actual homo content and made the females as irrelevant as she possibly can.
Sneaky Red was actually being translated by qvfamma some time ago. A homod/a/chi also offered and distributed actual private HQ raws for the first volume that doesn't exist anywhere too. He offered the raws to the group but who knows what happened to that.
No.
Fuck off.
I just checked their blog and it looks like they dropped it. That sucks.
title? art reminds me of ido gihou
>Because Tanabe used to deliver actual homo content
What did she deliver on?
