Title: What's your favourite Shounen-ai/Yaoi manga/anime?
Post by: Sakaki on July 21 2005, 10:31 am
I could always use recommendations when it comes to more Shounen-ai/Yaoi!!
So what is everyone reading and watching?  ^^

Edit:
Wow, I forgot I even started this topic.
So um yeah, revised list.

Tsubasa of course. KuroxFai yummyness XD
Hmm... if I have to say others, I say Legal Drug and Gravitation.

The only yaoi that really made me squeal "Cute!" was Tsuzuki and Hisoka in Yami no Matsuei (Descendants of Darkness). ^^

I just started reading X.
I've read the first book.
I haven't looked at Yami no Matsuei, sounds interesting though.

Here's a cool guide I found at Amazon.com

Interesting!

Manga: Fake! and Only The Ring Finger Knows (That was all I read so far)

Anime: Gravitation and Tokyo Babylon

Post by: Sakaki on July 21 2005, 02:25 pm
I want to read Fake! I just really don't like the art style.
If it's really good though........I'll give it a chance.
Or maybe the anime is better?

The anime is short but the manga is super better. You know what could have been an awsome Shonen AI is Petshop of Horrors because of Lenon and Count D's relationship. You should also check out Model. It has some Shonen AI moments.

I'll second Gravitation and Legal Drug for sure.

Boys Next Door (http://www.sakura-crisis.net/translations/boysnextdoor) is a favorite. It's by Kaori Yuki, author of Angel Sanctuary. A short read and awesome story, if somewhat gory and disturbing...  :sweatdrop:

Sakura Crisis (http://www.sakura-crisis.net/) has some other shounen-ai/yaoi stories worth checking out... I haven't read all of them. Love Mode is pretty good, though, erm... graphic at times, and the scanlation quality isn't the best.

Seishirou x Subaru in both Tokyo Babylon and x/1999
seeing how you've just started reading X...
Show content
Seishirou finally declares his love for Subaru in the end in vol 16...when his spell backfires in killing Subaru *sobs*
and Gohou drug, yup.  :keke:

Loveless, hmm, I actually like it alot, its more of peodephile shonen ai, but its still cute, and I just adore little boys in cat ears  :inlove:

I also like CCS/Tsubasa and maybe xxxHolic, I know it isn't that official, but I still like it, um, I also like D.N. Angel, Satoshi/Daisuke was crazy, lmao, but I thought it was cute, it wasn't my OTP though :XD:

Post by: Ruby Chan on July 26 2005, 09:22 pm
I like Tokyo Bablon and X (Subaru and Seishirou) and X with Kmaui and Fuuma (did a amv about their love)

I also like...
Gravitation
TRC (*KuroFai* ahem...and Touya/Yukito)
Legal Drug (although not really shonen-ai)
Fake (the anime is much worse than the manga)
CCs (Touya and Yuktio)

I also read Desire, by Maki Kazumi and Yukine Honami. It's a yaoi one, so there are one or 2 explicit scenes, but overall it's a sweet read if you ignore them.

It's basically about
Show content
a boy who has a crush on his jock of a friend, but doens't want to admit it in case of losing his friendship. But his jock friend gets curious about ummm...gay 'love', and asks if the boy will help him satisfy that curiosity. The boy has to choose between the physical side of a relationship, or having nothing at all.

Actually have you gotten very far into the series?
The last book that came out would qualify, I'd say.  :keke:

I can't remember for sure....is that the newest?
Can't remember if book four is out off the top of my head.
It's the one about the boy's school.  My favourite book.

Post by: Ruby Chan on July 28 2005, 07:00 am
Book 4 isn't out yet, I think. But in 3, they went to that school and had the ring trouble...but anyway, I've been reading translations...no idea of what pictures look like, because I'm already buying too many manga series, and I couldn't find any online scanlations. So maybe I didn't get the full picture.

Lol, you missed Kazahaya in a dress, twice!!
And, yeah, if you read the translations, then you aren't seeing a lot.
Much of the emotion is expressed in the pictures in this series.

The guy who sends them on all their "jobs" is absolutely in a relationship with his "bodyguard". They are shown throughout the books showing affection to each other, and you are missing the awesome chapter opening photos, you've got to see those! And I think Kazahaya and Rikuo have more going on as each chapter goes.

I'm going to try and find you the chapter openings!

I sure hope not, I really love this series, and it crosses over with XxxHolic and a few other Clamp manga.

I don't know about a favorite character yet Kazahaya and Rikuo are both pretty cool. But I like Saiga, too, especially his comments... and the sunglasses! XD

Wow, newly discovered yaoi anime/manga: Haru wo Daiteita!

I saw scans on a yaoi site, then desperately searched for what the series was. By the time I found out what it's called and looked for scanlations, it was already licensed and they were taken offline. T__T I've read a few translations though, and it's sweet. Right now I'm downloading the 1st OVA... can't wait till it's finished! There's also a movie called 'Winter Cicada.'

My faves:
Tokyo Babylon and X (Sei-chan no Baka! (Sob, Sob) Why couldn't you have told him before?!)
Legal Drug
Tsubasa (It counts because it has TouyaxYuki and Sei-chanxSu-kun, and I just know KuroxFai will be canon)
xxxHOLiC (WatanukixDoumeki is so canon. Dammit, it is.)
Fake (This is the yaoi series with which I corrupted my friends. Very fun.)
Fruits Basket (Hatsuharu is in love with Yuki! And Shigure and Ayame are always making insinuations! And lots of other insinuations abound! It totally counts!)
Gravitation (Yuki is such an a-hole, but we love him.)
Eerie Queerie
Only the Ring Finger Knows

I'll just add CCS, Gravitation, and Lawful Drug to Haru wo Daiteita. I also have read a few one shots by Chi-ran/Shi-ran. And I just started reading Fake. ^^
