Anime@ani.social•[Discussion] What is your best BL anime?English
1·30 days agoHow did I miss this post?! I have a duty here as a fujo/dan. *rolls up sleeves*
-
Doukyuusei: This one is a movie. It was the first BL anime that I watched and actually liked. Devoured the manga after.
-
Given (Season 1): This was a turning point in my relationship with BL. Before this anime, I had only really read/watched old-school rapey BL, so I thought it was always like that (with the exception of Doukyuusei, which I thought was a one-off). This series showed me that BL was much more than that, even though it gets a bad rep.
-
Yarichin Bitch Bu: What can I say 😅 It’s definitely not for everyone, but I enjoy it because of how crazy and ridiculous it is. Plus it helped me find my #4 pick…
-
Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai: The quality of this adaptation is actually not that good, imho. It’s carried by the story and vibes, which were more than good enough to capture my attention and spur me on to seek out and read the source manga.
That being said, there aren’t very many good BL anime, because it’s niche and so whenever there’s an adaptation (which is relatively rarely), the resources it gets assigned are usually low, and so production is subpar. Manga is where it’s at.
Anyway, gonna go rewatch Doukyuusei.

2·1 month agoMost of my ebooks are large as they are comics. You also have EPUB3 ebooks now, which can contain images and audio in them too (think combined ebook + audiobook). So they can get pretty large.

21·1 month ago… comics and manga, which is another aspect I’ve been noticing calibre does not do such a great job
Absolutely. Calibre is horrible with anything that is fixed format. I recently backed up my entire Kindle library with about 1k manga volumes, expecting to be able to convert from KFX to EPUB format as I have been doing for my regular books for 15+ years. Calibre failed awfully at this. The only thing it’s reasonably good at with comics, is converting to ZIP format. So I had to write a Python script to take the KFX -> ZIP outputs from Calibre and convert them into working EPUB files.

3·2 months agoFinally, I have been waiting for this for so long! Will post thoughts once I can watch in a few hours.
Edit: Few hours turned into a few weeks 🙃
Anyway, I loved it. They’re doing Tomoko Yamashita justice, after the Tri-Coloured Window adaptation was so meh. 🤩

Anime@ani.social•Raise wa Tanin ga Ii • Yakuza Fiancé: Raise wa Tanin ga Ii - Episode 2 discussionEnglish
2·1 year agoI was wondering why there were no new chapters for a while. Thought the scan group had dropped it again.
Just want to point out that he used the N word once, got hugely criticised for it, and didn’t do it again.
Not trying to defend nor minimise any of his actions, btw. Take from that as you will. Just want to clarify, as in my opinion your wording kind of implies he did it regularly.
