Manhua BL is completely disappearing due to homophobia

Since April 2025, Chinese authorities have been cracking down on the Danmei (Boys’ Love) community, arresting over 30 writers for posting boys love stories online.

Many now face charges under strict content laws, and those who earned money from their work could get up to 10 years in prison. Which is INSANE. a

The crackdown, said to protect “traditional values,” has shocked fans around the world, especially those of *The Untamed* and *Heaven Official’s Blessing*.

The arrests are still ongoing.
