[YAOI] Recently Read: Hopelessly Devoted

Art&Story: Yamamoto Kotetsuko Publisher: Kaiohsha English License and Official Translation on futekiya Volumes: 10 (~4 chapters/volume)

----------

My review below (each rating out of 5): Art: 🥵🥵🥵 Plot: 😏😏😏 Character Development: 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I came for the unique Buddhist priest setting and childhood friends plot of Yuuji x Saburou, but stayed for the side couple, Kenji (Yuuji’s pretty, asshole brother) and Yoshito (dopey neighbor with big dick??). 3 volumes in, I found myself trying to get through Yuuji and Saburou’s plot quickly so I could see what would happen with Kenji and Yoshito. Thinking back, sure, Yuuji and Saburou are super devoted to each other, but the most hopelessly devoted one is Yoshito. While for me, Yuuji and Saburou’s story became a little boring and predictable after a while, all the drama ended up with Kenji and Yoshito. I mean... their subplot includes another sexy priest.

Hello, can I ask your top fav BL & GL manga/manhwa? Feel free if you want to write why you love them or not....

I love your favorite romance anime recs and want to know your favorite on BL/GL, too...

Also thanks for your kind answer, it really helps me not feeling strange or guilty toward what I like (mlm and wlw media)....

You're welcome!

I've hardly read any manhwa, and even though I've read a good amount of bl manga (sorry I haven't read any gl manga, only seen some anime), I have the memory of a goldfish and have forgotten a lot of them because I don't keep track of them as much. That's why I gravitate more towards anime.

This is going to be the most basic list ever but some of my favorites are:

Sasaki to Miyano and Given (I know I put them on my romance list, but I love the manga for them too).

Omairi desu yo (Beautiful Priest) is really great!

Babylon and by extension X/1999. They're not technically categorized as BL, but I love CLAMP and the relationship character dynamics are so interesting.

Umibe no Étranger: The movie was a little...all over the place, but I loved the manga

Seven days

Hidamari ga Kikoeru (I Hear the Sunspot)

Cello Mellow: I think this was actually a collection of oneshots. I don't remember much about it, but I know I rated it highly

Not a manga but obviously I also love Heaven Official's Blessing too! All of the author's characters are so well written and so heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time 😭

Overall, I think hiranospiercing's lists are much better than mine. A lot of these are on my reading list

Also if anyone has any GL recommendations, help this person out!

I don't go here, as in, I ain't watching We Are cause I'm lazy and have 100+ episodes of One Piece to catch up on but I do find the discussion around "slice of life" as a genre to be interesting.

It's a pretty flexible genre, and in my experience, it can be both mature and immature, having a plot and not have a plot, though a majority of slice of life manga/anime (which I would argue is probably what most influences Thai creators take on the genre rather than something like idk Lady Bird) don't have A Plot and is mostly about vibes.

In my experience slice of life tends to have a lot of crossover with romance and/or comedy.

Example, Poyopoyo Kansatsu Nikki is a slice of life that is just about a fat orange cat named PoyoPoyo. Nothing else, just that. No plot, just comedy, vibes and cuteness.

It's so cute in fact, I've literally seen people cry over how cute it is. PoyoPoyo was published by Takeshobo in their seinen (manga targeted at men 18 - mid 30s) magazine Manga Life/Manga Life Momo.

School Babysitters/Gakuen Babysitters is another slice of life & comedy series, published in the shojo magazine LaLa (which also published Ouran High School Host Club which is not considered slice of life); while A Man and His Cat - also slice of life and comedy - was published by Monthly Shonen Gangan (the same magazine that published Full Metal Alchemist, variety!). Also gotta shoutout Way of the Househusband probably one of the most popular slice of life comedies on the market, published in Kurage Bunch (another seinen) magazine.

None of these these series have "plot" they really just have jokes, sincerity and vibes.

Then you have the romance stuff.

Love Hina is considered slice of life, but also a harem manga and "the plot" only happens in like the last god damn movie of that stupid show in between loads and loads of fan service.

You also have something like Maison Ikkoku (one of Rumiko Takahashi's earliest works) which is comedy, slice of life, and romance in that order (imo anyway lol). It has more plot than Poyopoyo or even Love Hina, but is still pretty comedy driven in between softer more emotional romantic moments.

For a BL comparable, a ton of stuff by Yamamoto Kotetsuko counts like Honto Yajuu, Bokura no Negai, and Omairi Desu Yo.

[Maison Ikkoku was also published in a seinen magazine, Big Comic Spirits (check out THIS 2007 cover whew), while Love Hina was published in Weekly Shounen Magazine (yup same magazine that published My Hero Academia and Naruto lol).]

On the flipside of all of that you have series like Kids on the Slope, which is slice of life, romance, and coming of age which has a more melancholy tone to it (which makes sense, it was published in a josei magazine Monthly Flowers).

For me, given the flexibility of the genre and how often it crosses over with comedy, romance, and coming of age slice of life is really just a genre that prioritizes lower stakes, characters and their dynamics with one another, in a (majority) real world setting. Which is why it lends so well to school settings, home life/work settings, as well as comedy, romance, and large casts of characters.

There's a lot of fun and comedy to be had in the mundanity of normal every day life.

Idk if We Are fits those parameters in any way, but it sounds like people are having a good time with it either way and kudos to y'all spark that joy I just found the discussion on "what is slice of life" as a genre interesting bendicions 🙏

“we are has no plot” skill issue the lack of plot is the plot

Have you seen that Futekiya licensed Omairi desu yo and Honto Yajuu??

Thanks for the notification! That’s both great news for Yamamoto-sensei, who’s long deserved to have her work recognized and terrible news because...well, I’ve heard nothing but bad reviews of Futekiya’s translation and quality (and also IIRC it’s a subscription service? so RIP anyone who wanted to actually own content).

I encourage fans of the series to really stay on top of the licensors to let them know you expect and demand quality output for these beloved series.

We were privileged to have brought you guys these stories thus far and will be keeping our eyes peeled for new gems to bring to your attention going forward!
