I know my forum has a lot of people who can help you out in that. I did a quick check in the forum and it seems Sweet Pool, Lamento and Lucky Dog are pretty popular besides Togainu no Chi. Here are a wiki list of BL games you might find useful: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BL_game Best is you know how to read Japanese, most of them aren't translated. @Steno: Well, I actually forgot my username and password when I tried login last year (I kept on using aarinfantasy as my username), then I got lazy and forgot to come back. I was just randomly looking at some FaceBook stuff and a link brought me here!~ So I just tried a few times and got myself login successfully!~ XD (Suddenly remembered I used only my name "Aarin" to register before the whole AarinFantasy thing). I will come by when I can of course Are you going to the Comic Fiesta this weekend? I didn't know about it until today ;;; But I won't be able to go =x Haven't been in touch with animes (besides yaoi ones) for quite a long time now. @ps3 fanboy: Black Butler (Kuroshitsuji) and 07-Ghost are actually not categorized as yaoi or even BL. The anime contents have what we called Fan Service... so a lot of times, these animes are called "slash" animes (where fans will fantasize or couple up a pair or guys in the anime). To me, both aren't BL, but there are very subtle hints for Black Butler anime. These two animes are safe and fine for any guys (who dislike yaoi) to watch actually. Trust me on that, because I have friends who hates yaoi a lot. I don't know about Manga version of these two though, because there are titles that have BL scenes in the manga but for anime version they turned off the BL in it. @DrBlueBox: lol~ If you can't get rid of it, embrace it! If any of you guys and girls are just starting out and don't wanna be too startled by the thought of yaoi, just try watching Gakuen Heaven, Junjou Romantica or Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi first. Also hello to ganaeshd, Quazacolt and Silencers ~ hi i guess, lol.

BL (shounen ai) - at least some form of hugs, kisses or touches, or expression of feelings (interest) Fan service (slash) - just hints of BL but the anime is not marketed or intended for yaoi/BL. Usually an author/artist adds this in to give the viewer/reader something they "want" to see but they have no intention of bringing their work to BL/yaoi level. For an anime to be called yaoi or BL... the general story has to be at least focusing on the attraction of the male characters involved towards each other. But there are animes that can be dangerously on the border of being BL or just general anime, as I have heard like this anime called "No.6" which I haven't watch. That's why I didn't really push on the fact to other people that Black Butler is BL or not, because I said what I think and how it's marketed as - female target market with fan service (so that's not BL in my opinion). So if you really think Black Butler is indeed BL, then that's fine... many people have different level of interpretation of things for level of BL-ness. Oh... I don't mind yuri genre also.... because for me, if I like yaoi... I also have the same respect for yuri. (But I know of yaoi fans disliking yuri a lot and vice versa, so it's not a big deal). At the end of the day, I don't watch yaoi because it's yaoi... it's the artwork and storyline that matters for me the most. It's just that I have to pay more attention to yaoi because that's what AarinFantasy forum actually lives for (lol) Thanks for the link for the trading section happy_berry.
