How did you start watching yaoi?

Recommended Posts

it was eight years ago when i first bought manga Eerie Queerie by Shiozu Shuri. although it's only shonen ai, but i've just realized that i like this kind of genre(lol) and started to find the others, but it was pretty hard and wasn't popular like nowadays.

 

the next five years i read desire by honami yukine. wow, it was the first yaoi manga i've ever read.

she become one of my favorite mangaka forever. furthermore i like drawing and i like to imitate her style sometime (lol).

I first discovered yaoi and shonen ai when I was 13 or 14. I was first exposed while reading fanfiction. and you have to admit, for a shonen manga written by a guy, it is practically impossible to find a fanfiction that isn't yaoi! At first I was like, "This is so wrong!" But man, was it right! JunjunRomantica kinda sealed the deal for me. so that has been 5 years for me too!

I heard about it on a magazine a couple of years ago and I didn't pay too much atention to it. This year I saw on TV show talking about yaoi. I searched for it on the internet and the started watching Junjou Romantica and totally fell in love with the series. After that I've seen all the yaoi I can! ^^

I mistook one of the characters in a yaoi anime for a girl, then a bit later, after going to camp, met a friend there who was 100% addicted to yaoi, and after chatting with her for two weeks about stuff, she brought me to the dark side-we even dressed up as Sasuke and Naruto one of the days at camp. (It was awesome!

. .i was an anime' aficionada ever since i was a kid

. .i always bought anime' dvds

. .one time, a dvd caught my eye, the cover was somewhat weird, when i start staring into it, i felt romance,

funny thing is, it's 2 men i'm staring at, then i bought it

. .then i watched it,

. .that was the first time i watched an anime' like that

. .and that's the reason that made me hook to this,

. .i was been opened that stuff like this do exist

 

. .the yaoi that opened my mind to this was entitled " JUNJOU RAMONTICA" ( first impression lasts) :)

Well, I was looking for a shoujo anime back then and then I saw an advertisment of Junjou Romantica.

I was like.."What The hell?!..Is that a boy and a boy?!.."..and then I watched it to clarify if those people were really boys.

And then I found out that both of them were boys and I started to like it!..so kept on watching Junjou Romantica back then and finished it..also the manga..although its still continuing...and from that day on I kept watching Yaoi..but I just found the forum now..XD

I think it was about when I was 14 years old. I was introduce to manga by my brother. At that time I was stupid not knowing what yaoi mean. I was searching something to read and yeah, I was accidentally reading yaoi. I didn't read the plot summary and just based on the cover, I thought it was an action story. Haha, and I like it! Since then, I was hooked by yaoi! :cuteonion41:

I liked yaoi since 4 months ago (It's really accidently), I want to read shoujo manga but when I searched it I found yaoi manga. The tittle is Kafe Kara Hajimaru Love Life, the cover's picture make me curious. So I start to read it, I never know if love story between 2 mens can be so romantic!

Then I saw Takumi Kun Series, my first BL drama (I found it accidently, again!!!) and I love the story between Takumi & Gii. Then I addicted to Yaoi......

I didn't watch any to know about Yaoi. I read Cardcaptor Sakura and I was wondering, why Tomoyo said she loves Sakura. And the most confusing part is Syaoran keeps blushing when he sees Yukito. Also Touya is kinda "overrated" to Yukito, like hugging him, dramatically whispering in his ear. (You know I sweat too much because of it) ^^" After that I searched on internet about it and found out about shonen-ai and then yaoi. Since I still have no idea about those things, I started watching gravitation just for healing my curiosity. In the end, I really loooove it and I start watching and reading yaoi stuff! ^^
