Love. Does loving someone is a sin? I don't think so loving someone is the best part of life but some people think that love is nothing but a waste of time

Boys love

"The story is very different from what others have been doing,”

The genre of boys’ love has become increasingly popular over the past two decades, and has quickly become a global phenomenon in media across the world. This Japanese genre, which portrays the romantic love of two men, often in a sexually explicit form, appears in anime, manga, video games, and textual and visual pieces created by fans. The growing interest of young female enthusiasts in male homoerotic narratives inspired the formation of large fan communities in the mid-2000s and received increasing attention from academics. A large number of theoretical essays, qualitative and quantitative research articles emerged, focusing on either boys’ love media or the fan culture associated with it. In this paper, we provide a review of boys’ love literature based on genre-specific characteristics, fan culture and motivations, critiques from gay society, and the possible social implications of boys’ love media in an intercultural context.

For example:

1. Seitokaichou ni Chuukoku (Hey! Class President)

Seitokaichou ni Chuukoku might seem kind of an obvious anime but not so

much. You would think that the Class President would be the confident guy with a charming personality but Seitokaichou breaks the norms.

Yuuzou Kokusai is a timid and naive guy. He doesn’t understand the advances made towards him and neither does he understand how the world around him works. Chiga-kun the Vice President, is always up for protecting his naive president. ni Chuukoku (Hey! Class President)

Seitokaichou ni Chuukoku might seem kind of an obvious anime but not so much. You would think that the Class President would be the confident guy with a charming personality but Seitokaichou breaks the norms

As the plot progresses Chiga-kun cannot believe that he is attracted to a naive country boy despite being an intellectual himself. The anime is one of the better relationship dynamics of all couples featured in this list.

2.Junjou Romantica

Next up on number seven we have Junjou Romantica. The main character, Misaki Takahashi, is a high school student and like all high school students, he is preparing for his University Exams so that he can get into the best of the best universities in the country.

Akihiko Usami is Misaki’s older brother’s friend who offers to help Misaki prepare for the exams. Thinking that Akihiko would help him relieve some stress and get better at studying efficiently Misaki accepts his offer.

But soon he finds out that Akihiko’s books are of lewd nature but that actually ignites something inside of Misaki. The anime is more about corrupting an innocent soul.

3.Yuri!!! on Ice

This anime needs no introductions. It is quite popular not just in the BL anime genre but even amongst the most popular anime in all genres.

Yuri!!! on Ice is more than just ice skating, it is about life in general. It teaches many things and takes some away too.

After his failure at the Grand Prix, a 23-year-old Yuri, once the most promising figure skater in Japan turns into a couch potato all because of the standards he set himself to.

4.Given

This franchise took over the BL genre by surprise in 2019. It has reached new heights in the genre with its ever-growing fanbase. All of this is because of the amazing storyline and the animation quality it has.

Mafuyu Satou the protagonist has an encounter with Ritsuka, a band member who berates him about his rusted and broken guitar strings. Admiring Ritsuka’s knowledge about the instrument, Satou requests him to fix it and teach him the guitar.

Over the time they spend together Ritsuka is please so much by Satou’s voice that he decides to make him the lead singer in his band.

Given is much more than just a high school band drama. It has romance, love expressed with music, and some of the best heart-warming moments in all of anime.
