Japanese BL ❤️️
The Japanese-specific BL content and my thoughts on them. I only post series I have watched and can give reference to.

1. Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!
Japanese Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
Another 'must watch' among the fandom, Cherry Magic appears a lot of fav lists. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it, it's very soft...like super soft, but the side couple, was....bad. I highly recommend giving it a go, especially if you're new to the BL genre it's nice gentle ease-in, or 'popping your cherry'
Rewatchable

2. Absolute BL
Japanese Special - 2021, 1 episode
Funniest opening ever, and the meta concept is hilarious. Manic energy that carried the series through.
-
3. Zettai BL ni Naru Sekai VS Zettai BL ni Naritakunai Otoko 2
Japanese Special - 2022, 1 episode
Still utterly chaotic, and the opening was absolutely dead....but it wasn't quite as good as the first series.
-
4. Utsukushii Kare
Japanese Drama - 2021, 6 episodes
This was so well done. It's got a very yaoi sort of feel to it, but just so well shot, highly recommend it.
-
5. Kieta Hatsukoi
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Just a soft, sweet coming-of-age story. Aoki is so relatable, such a chaotic soul.
-
6. Vita~Amore in Riga
Japanese Drama - 2020, 4 episodes
If you want somthing emotionally devastating....it has a happy ending, but just a punch in feels and a fantastic cameo (but I won't tell you who)
-
7. Seven Days: Monday - Thursday
Japanese Movie - 2015
So many perms.....it's ok, not my favourite watch, but not a huge time commitment.
-
8. Udagawachou de Matteteyo
Japanese Movie - 2015
One of the first BL's I ever watched, I loved the manga and this was sort of tragically beautiful.
-
9. Fukou-kun wa Kiss Suru Shikanai!
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
So soft, the JBL's are all about soft and innocent, the last episode was a little strange though.
-
10. Old Fashion Cupcake
Japanese Drama - 2022, 5 episodes
LOVED LOVED LOVED it's so nice to see an 'older' couple. The visuals of this are fantastic, it feels so soft and just sweet.
-
11. Minato Shouji Coin Laundry
Japanese Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
This one lost me halfway through, it dragged more then I wanted it too. The end was surprising, I thought it was going to take a different turn.
-
12. Takara-kun to Amagi-kun
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Super soft, unproblematic, not one I'll revisit anytime soon but if you're in the mood for fluff.
-
13. Kabe Sa Doujin Sakka no Neko Yashiki-kun wa Shouninyokkyou wo Kojiraseteiru
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
JBL's have an odd chaos to them sometimes and this is deff one of them what a random series but super cute, if a little cliche on the plot.
-
14. Eien no Kino
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
I knew this one was going to ruin me from the opening episode, prepare your heart for this but it's absolutely beautiful top 5 JBL's for sure.
-
15. Ameiro Paradox
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
This was a pleasant surprise of a series, and that ending was everything I needed in life. Not to mention the skinship was natural.
-
16. Utsukushii Kare Season 2
Japanese Drama - 2023, 4 episodes
Just as good as season one, just a gem.
-
17. Bokura no Micro na Shuumatsu
Japanese Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
SPICY
-
18. Jack Frost
Japanese Drama - 2023, 6 episodes
Had mixed feelings on this one, I don't want to ruin this but the emotional toll is no joke.
-
19. Kei×Yaku: Abunai Aibou
Japanese Drama - 2022, 10 episodes
Not explicitly BL more implied, but I did love the chemistry.
-
20. Senpai, Danjite Koide wa!
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
-
21. Bokura no Shokutaku
Japanese Drama - 2023, 10 episodes
One of my top JBL's of 2023, if you want a soft watch that won't take an emotional toll on you this is the one.
