Shounen ai doesn't specifically mean BL it just means the main characters are two boys
The Shounen-ai tag was added recently so that's why the older comments say it's not.
shounen ai does actually specify BL from my understanding, it just means that it isn’t as explicit as yaoi and rather focuses more on the emotional aspect of BL.
People read too many hentai is bl so much, yaoi, that they think its not bl if it doesn't have a yaoi tag. Wtf? Isn't it sad?
how is this not bl but labelled as shounen ai?? is this bl or no?
