Okay! So, some enthusiastic artists  sent in their entries and they’re amazing and quite varied! There are others in the comments section which is still ongoing, but with the kinks drawn closed, it’s time to ask what you guys think about these kinks. By the way, at the end of this is a poll asking…
When a couple of Japanese BL scholars went down to Manila, I spent a good week with them – interviewing local female artists and getting to know BL fans in Manila. During down time, they had a chance to ask me, “What kind of BL do you read?” And as with everything that involves my…
HAH! And you fujojos thought you’re safe in your quiet little holes, mumbling naughty sounds uke make while they’re getting pummeled by their seme. Oh wait… you don’t do that!?! You should! It’s a very liberating experience as a fujoshi and I personally find it educational in your learning of Japanese. However these fujojos seem…
In Eureka’s Fujoshi Manga Compendium, there’s this interesting section where they list down the things a fujoshi must read.　They called it the Fujoshi Manga Bible.  I thought it’d be best to share the list down here for fujoshi to check what these women think are titles that we fujojos must read. I’ll also try to append…
“What is BL?” A question I ask fujoshi who I meet here and there. “Schmex,” is always the immediate answer that often comes with an almost mischievous laugh. “Boy’s Love and everything that comes in between” is the most straightforward answer. “Is that the same as yaoi,” another would ask. “That’s the girly stuff, isn’t…
Ladies and gents! I’m happy to announce that finally the 801 Manga Moveable Feast is officially open! 😀 As host of this month’s MMF, I would like to invite all you enthusiastic fujoshi with so many feels to participate in this BL manga feast! Or, you can also join the contests in the website: name…
Fujojos, wat do? I’ve been stuck in a limbo trying to find some few titles to write about without knowing, what do you fujojos exactly want? Well other than SCHMEX, I know you fujojos can get specific. A kink meme is a litany to our needs thus here I am asking, what are your favorite…
801. Yaoi. Boy’s Love. Tanbi. Shounen-Ai. BL. Pr0n. Call it whatever you want. Fujoshi. Fudanshi. Fujojo. Call us whatever you want. We probably wouldn’t care because all we know is that 8/01 is our special day and here in Otaku Champloo we’ll be celebrating a fiesta for what we fujoshi love: Boy’s Love manga. From…
When there was an idea to bring back the BL con in the Philippines, my first suggestion was that we should have a fan anthology. It seems to be the thing nowadays. At tumblr, there’s countless of fan anthologies going up: from Avengers to Sherlock, and even some for original works. We know that there…
Just where did January and February go?! I promised myself in my last spotlight that I will make a point in writing 12 spotlights for this year, but here I am in March writing my first spotlight! Que horror! That said, starting the spotlight again is a lot better than not ever continuing it at…
