I started liking yaoi because my friends were talking about it and I had no idea what it was so I got curious and searched up what yaoi was and it showed me a yaoi manhwa (K’s secret) so I clicked on the manhwa and went to a random chapter, and that chapter had a sex scene lol. I had dropped my phone when I saw it but then I got used to it, that was my first yaoi I read
(о´∀`о)
Sorry if it’s confusing
Well MY 1st manga was very cliche I guess----Sekaiichi hatsukoi. I didn't even know that mangas existed (basically living under a rock)~ my 1st encounter with yaoi was on youtube and the anime was Kizuna, and LIKE everyone I was hooked. Then i searched for more yaoi anime and found out junjou romantica, hybrid child, LOVE stage, winter cicadas, finder....y'know the OGs. Then I googled about them and found out about how they were based on mangas and they were better than the anime cause 18+ .. am I right??!!18+ ones were like holy grail for me and now 7years later& its still going strong.. MY love for mangas hasn't changed and I'm even more excited for the newer ones.
my first bl was actually not a manga, an anime rather (loveless). i remembered when I was like 11, my cousin let me borrow her cd and told me to try to watch it but alone. She notified me that it would be bl but i didn't really mind. so, i watched it and kept wanting for more and now we are here T^T. After that, I started shipping anime characters that i like.
When break time at school year 2016 a classmates of mine who's a cosplayer reading some Manga on her phone and she looks suspicious coz she's covering her phone in a weird me so I ask her what is she doing and she didn't speak she was blushing and ask me if I like to read Manga I said yes coz she knew I love books and Mangas that time I'm knew to this so she as me if I knew yaoi/Yuri and I said what is that coz I really don't know so she grin at me so I was likeeeee ( ̄∇ ̄") then she saw a Yuri on ice Dj.... Then it's all start with that and I'm here now hahaha
My friends also talk about Yaoi. one of my friends literally want me to read yaoi and she wants me to hooked onto it but I could never. Then I found Saezuru. hehehe. I didnt drop my phone though. I dropped my phone when I was in first year of college when my friend google and showed me about hand job xD
How did you start liking yaoi ?
For me, my first one that I was hooked onto was Saezuru Tori wa Habtakanai. I just want to share my story bcoz it was like I was meant to read it <3 I used to read smut straight Adult mangas so whenever I searched adult category, I would always see Saezuru in recommendation. I always ignored it, like wth is that bcoz of the front cover. Also I always listen J music so one day YouTube suggests me a song, that was so good, the lyrics makes me cry. Then I found out the song is from Saezuru movie adaption trailer. I couldn’t wait for movie to come out and decided to read manga. When searched for manga, I was like WHAT!!?? This is the one always showed up in my Adult recommendation list and always ignored it. Talk about fate :3 Hehe so I started reading it and love it so much.
So what about yours?
