Claude literally knows every single yaoi manga/anime/manhwa that I finished reading in my reading list... This guy is so cool that I'm so glad he debuted.

"don't say that you're age is showing." damn it 😄

[@OrangecatMilo]

haha, i feel called out hard lol

[@geneseizeseize8623]

Him and other niji en girls who into BL will get along quite well

He already talks to Elira in the dms about BL

[@avourrito1819]

Can't wait for Uki and him to just talk about Gay on Ice

[@PunskiChan]

Killing Stalking isn't BL.......It's BA (Boys Abused) let's be real

[@vincentgeiszler3749]

Yeah I don’t think it’s meant to be actual bl it’s more psychological horror afaik

[@Manilove223]

The creator even said it's not BL

[@Freetim1]

those who fetishize their relationship are something else fr

[@chimmiebomb]

I started reading it because I thought it was BL. I was wrong. But I kept reading it because DAMN if it didn’t keep me on the edge of my fucking seat

[@abhirose]

Actually, Killing stalking is a BL. Just like there is Fantasy BL, Historical BL, there is also Psychological Horror BL... Idk why people have so much hard time understanding this lol

[@omindivinoja0789]

I thought the men reading or watching bl was very hard to find. This is why I love Nijien. they have all the kinds of guys, specially fudanshis. Fu-chan is so good at it and now Claude. talking about these things that we find hard to talk with a guy 😂😂 but man talking about bl genre with them is so funny and wholesome ❤❤

[@Bearslikejaimie]

Well considering Fu-chan isnt straight, it didn't surprise me that he liked BL and everything but I'm glad that Claude is also open to sharing how much he likes it :p Either way, you really don't see guys talk about this very often so it's pretty cool.

[@everyday_is_everyday69]

​@@Bearslikejaimiewhat's fu Chan's sexuality?

[@MLee_15]

​@@everyday_is_everyday69I think he's bi

[@duru_mii]

main branch has some male livers who talk about bl and/or aren't het too iirc

[@Mmannk]

⁠​⁠@@duru_miiyeah, genzuki is nonbinary (is okay with masculine pronouns) and talks about loving bl (mainly bara tho). Akina is bi, and i remember a while ago finding a clip from kanae talking about how gender doesn’t matter towards the people he likes but didn’t give it a label (i can no longer find the clip and my memory is starting to gaslight me about it lmao). Shikinagi Akira is bi and is also a fudanshi and even had a very funny otome game stream. There’s a lot of queer people in the main branch, including men (which is usually lacking in representation). And i don’t think I’ve seen any homophobia from those who say they’re straight. It’s a very welcoming place and part of why i fell in love with the main branch years ago.

[@PuffyWuzHere]

😂 gotta have a deep appreciation and respect for a man who reads BL ❤

[@UnluckyWh0re]

5:13 NOT THE CALL OUT 😭😭

[@reireiryuuji]

HIS SK8 TAKE IS BASED

[@izumimimimi]

I need Claude, Fuuchan, and Elira to do a stream together talking about BL

[@gencarcar]

ok i respect so much about this man and his knowledge... he truly understands the bl struggle. but like imo ten count is bad TT to each their own but there's so many better bl stories out there

[@abhirose]

I agree Ten count just made me feel so Icky...

[@sparo_splat]

The beginning of Ten Count was really good...but then it got into gaslighting, very questionable ethics territory when, I assume because of popular demand, they added more spice to the story. I remember thinking "hey it'll be a nice healing slow burn" but nope, just speed through the damn list.

[@hanae4512]

theres one singular chapter in ten count that i love, and thats when the dark haired ml put that one girl in her place lmao

[@liandoaethend2403]

Reading 10count is not even guilty pleasure, i just read it cuz its intriguing Younger me have more tolerance and bravery than i am now💀 Tho theres some Bl that is so fked up, Ten Count is considered safe in my booklist💀 Just remembering the other ones made me shudder, if i could- i'll roll my eyes around on glass shards

[@cronchy_bakingsoda]

I remember reading it when I was younger and then rereading it later and really not liking it

[@AceK3chi]

All my memories of Dakaichi just came back and I don’t know if I want to forget again or not

CASE OF VANITAS OH MY GOOOOOOOOOODDDDD This man is so BASED it’s so rare to see fudanshis talking about bl so openly I’m so happy that we got to meet him😭🫶

[@Kari_._]

7:50 I was so happy someone had the same origin story as me with Junjou Romantica and then Claude went in for the kill with the age comment, savage af Your clip definetely made me want to watch him live instead of the vods, thank you! 💜

[@morbidcorvid_ly]

Wait is junjou romantica really old? Guessing early 2k bl reader as ancient

[@Alwerien]

@@morbidcorvid_ly Honestly I wouldn't say it's that old but to someone who was in middle school when it aired (since iirc it was around the same time as KnB he mentioned)...it sure would seem that way. JR wasn't even my first either so I feel you on the ancient ;_;

[@lyssao.8308]

but me too, and I'm not that old

[@awiiator]

He was fowl for that tbh 😭 JR and some other ones were like the pillars of the BL world. Everybody read those once in their life before all the new stuff came

[@vicmaenation9785]

He fr just called me out on 5:13 💀

[@AiXin_8059]

Hahahahaha his reaction to junjou Romantica.... Hahahaha "your age is showing"🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Fynlanis]

Not the callout about age... I suddenly feel old with my 23 years of age XD I love Junjou Romantica...(well, the nostalgia of it, nowadays)

[@suky000]

Girl, Gravitation was my first BL... you are fine, dont worry LMAO

[@Fynlanis]

@@suky000 I mean if we're talking first BL manga I'd have to say S** Therapist. Junjou is just one of my nostalgic favourites xD Gravitation I tried before Junjou I belive and gave up, it was just too uncomfortable to watch

[@vcaesium]

Idk I never really got into Junjou (in terms of the romance part but it was funny, also I can only speak for the anime, I didn't read the manga) Ig that was because everytime theres a story: they like each other -> they get together -> NEXT COUPLE 😂 (I like when stories end after they got together OR when it takes literal ages to get together; mean that in general not only in junjou) But yeah thats just my opinion xD (I really liked Hybrid Child tho)

[@oomay1925]

I was literally thinking how him watching that actor BL anime under the covers was me watching Junjou Romantica when I was a teenager 😭

[@orangerafflesia4996]

Imagine Alban asking this guy about omegaverse and shit and he fcking start to explain with his powerpoint. 😆

[@vcaesium]

Tbh I really liked Ten Count for reasons, a lil toxicity never hurt anybody 🙃 (Other works by the same author are def healthier and more on the shounen ai side, I liked Graineliers a lot) My fave author atm would have to be Hinohara Meguru, I eat their work up

[@frnn9041]

It's all fiction anyway, i think havin a little bit of Spice is okay, like sometimes jealousy and toxicity make the bl more amusing

[@fajartirta4934]

BL is about love and drama after all, it needs some struggle and conflict to keep viewer entertain

[@vcaesium]

@@frnn9041 yes I agree. Mostly I read healthy cute stuff but sometimes its gonna be spicy lol (I could not bring myself to continue reading the BL spinoff from Sadistic Beauty, that was too much toxicity and in no way rewarding)

Claude with the very specific 11pm Crunchyroll app situation was me too but with 11eyes, Dark Rabbit Has Seven Lives… Mirai Nikki… the Terrorist anime… He took me back to my junior high days 😂 ALSO, regarding BL,,, Dramatical Murder. Back in the day (2010s) was quite popular and was fun to read as a teen. If it was released right now I BET it’d be cancelled to kingdom come for pro-ship content.
