So good things happened yesterday and one of which was this announcement that A-1 pictures, the studio behind Persona and Utapuri are animating Nakamura Asumiko’s Doukyuusei series! You can check the　official anime page too!
It’s awesome to start the new year with some BL and I’m more than happy to share to you the list of most dangerous BL in 2015 from Kono BL ga Yabai!
2014 was a very busy year for me. The bulk of my research was done during this year and in terms of manga reading, I actually spent more time catching up or reading manga related to my research more than reading all the new manga I bought. But I did try. Most of the…
I have my fair set of expectations when it comes to my favourite authors. The fact that I consider them my favorite entails a kind of resonance, a hive mind of sorts where you just know what kind of title to expect whenever they release new works. As such, when I got one of Yamashita…
What initially got me with this title was a blurb in a fujoshi website saying “BEETLE BLâ€. And I’ve had my fair share of weird and odd things in BL but I have never read a beetle BL, more so drawn by a talented artist like Shoowa. So even when I’m not a die hard…

Burdened by his business woes, Satoru walks out on a rainy evening and stumbles over a lifeless…
