With all due respect to Colors, this is the one I really wanted to see adapted.

instead of photograph backgrounds they now live in a vaguely pink void so it seems like a sidegrade

Colors ended today, it was good. The slow pan over to Yui's dead-eyed stare at Sacchan and her mom was possibly the funniest moment of the season.

Huh, that's interesting. Etotama was back in 2014 or so, wasn't it? I didn't see it but I wonder how the (extensive) CGI held up.

Is there a demonstrable difference between a manga labeled yaoi/yuri as compared to shounen-ai/shoujo-ai?

I mean, according to somewhat outdated standards, the difference between yaoi and shounen ai is that the former will depict some non zero amount of sex in it, but no one really ever makes this distinction outside of fujos.

yaoi is usually gonna have some sex and shounen-ai will be limited mainly to just kissing but I think that's primarily a western designation

I think BL works best as an overall umbrella term since it covers everything

also just because something has sex in it that doesn't mean it's pornographic wtf

I'm pretty sure the -ais are outdated western fandom terms (in Japan they refer to pedophilia) and yaoi is also outdated. They still get used on sites like ANN and MAL because, well, hrm :thunk:

Sorry this is what I meant, pornographic was definitely the wrong word to use there

shounen ai was an actual genre descriptor about BL with schoolboys, it's when western anime fandom made 'shoujo ai' to contrast it that things got strange.

According to some article I read shoyinen ai has fallen out of use because it sounds pedoey which makes it funny that BL is now the umbrella term.
And shoujo ai is entirely a western invention apparently

I'm procrastinating rn though so here's a bit from TJ

quote:

Can I do better than place him for a few pages in one of the most humiliating positions which I myself had been in? An awkward, childish and perhaps proud feeling of redemption makes me believe that I underwent all those humiliations so that he might be spared them. But in order that the experiment be more effective I shall make Lucien live for a moment in my wretched skin. In a book entitled Miracle of the Rose I take upon myself the ignominy of a young convict whose cheeks and eyes are spat on by the other prisoners, and speaking of him I say I..."

Maybe this will make you horny enough to read the book idk
