Read Manga

For Yaoi it really doesn't matter to me, both are great tbh. But as for yuri, Korean manwhas have left me absolutely s h o o k. Japanese mangas for yuri tend to be mostly be overly moe, high school girls and I'm not into the cutesty school girl genre really. It's okay, but I prefer working older women and college girls. With Korean webtoons coming......   reply

~ Me feels soooo muuuch LOVE for both !!! ~1. JAPANESE MANGA: ... i love japanese manga for its depth and subtlety in conveying the complexity of a character's emotions. The black-and-white manga forces the reader to unconsciously focus all their attention in the story's plot, dilemmas/circumstances, characters' body language, and interactions be......   1 reply

Tbh it's just refreshing and nice to see males being sensitive and actually having emotions on any kind of media, to me it's just about enjoying a story and admiring the nice art that comes with it. I don't feel I sexualize anyone by doing that, I don't fantasize or harass people I know irl or anything. If people aren't uncomfortable with shipping ......   reply

I recently asked myself that too and I found the answer when I swapped the demographic with others I'm into and the answer is no. I love shoujo, josei, shounen, psychological and horror stories, movies etc but there is a difference between these mediums and reality. BL is interesting because the stakes are higher. In m x f romance stories a faile......   reply

Definitely Korean Webtoons! I like the comic layout a lot more, they're usually colored (which I appreciate), and the storylines are more varied and unique! [I love manga - the art and stories are great but when it comes to the BL genre, it's pretty lackluster and repetitive. There are certain artists that I enjoy very much, but as i keep reading m......   1 reply

I totally get what you mean about Korean webtoons. They do indeed feel more realistic, the characters have more depth and the seme doesn't try to rape the uke. I freaking hate how they try to make rape seem romantic, but then again, there are also Japanese manga that are just as good. I think it's because there's so much Japanese bl out there, so y......   1 reply

Japanese Mangas...It seems that Korean webtoons or manhwas have more unfeeling or uncaring psychos. I especially do not like their ukes...They do have good looking and modern looking characters. My overall preference is yaoi so that's my basis for my reasoning. (▰˘◡˘▰) Lol   reply

I prefer Japanese manga more. It's probably out of habit. But I haven't read that much korean webtoons to be honest, so it must just really be a question of preference or something, or me not giving korean webtoons a chance that they deserve. But I'd probably choose Chinese Manhuas over Korean webtoons anytime. I enjoy Chinese manhuas because the......   1 reply

I also agree with your point on women in media and the preference for men. I don't hate when women are love interests, I hate it when they are 2D characters. Same goes for men, because it happens too, that it's the guy the one who is the love interest and is a 2d person. I don't like shojo, jousei or hentai, and when shonen has obvious romance, I d......   reply

i can 100% understand this and relate to this!! what a lot of people tend to not understand is that it's not simply just about girls reading yaoi, but rather about STRAIGHT girls reading yaoi. if ur straight and u prefer yaoi over shoujo then whatever, that's fine, nobody is criminalizing you for that since shoujo often has no depth to their storie......   1 reply
