Jie Yao

Chinese anime (AKA Donghua) that has adapted a Boy's Love source.

Bromance, Male-friendship, Ambiguous ambiance, Fujo-bait this time focusing on the non-japanese side (donghua and else).
Most of the entries are adapted from Danmei (BL) novel, but censorship kinda take out BL moments.
(male) Characters that have a strong moving emotional bond, fujoshi particularly enjoy.

I'm not including the Sequels & sides stories in the list to keep place :)

Anime that are not pet-centered shows, but have a cute cat mascot. These kitties are usually the main character's pet or magical familiar.

A selection of 21st century anime series featuring characters who are adults. From ordinary office workers to traveling peddlers to superheroes, adult protagonists can have a variety of life experiences and many different ways of living. Young emerging adults may still be trying to find their path in life, while established older folks are more likely to have mastered the art of adulting - or at least learned enough to muddle by. Some adults become jaded over time from repeated exposure to the reality that life is often painful, depressing, and unfair. Others retain a more positive outlook by focusing on their dreams for the future or take a more pragmatic approach by putting all their efforts into improving their lives here and now.

Various types of series that involve some sort of LGBT representation, be it in characters, relationships, plots, etc.

Includes: Gay/Lesbian/Homosexual, Trans Characters, Gender Non-Comformists, etc.
I got tired of half-baked representation and shitty ass plots slapped with a rep label on it.

from stuff I watched at least

Danmei stories adapted into Chinese animation (Donghua)

(I added some that are not danmei but the protagonists seem like a couple! ^^)

Daihao is an upcoming Donghua Danmei but they haven't approved it yet so here is the link: https://myanimelist.net/anime/51033/Daihao__Kuangxin

The BL anime included are labelled 'uncontroversial', 'partly controversial', 'controversial', and 'bait' to better help you find something to your liking. Those labels mainly refer to how healthy the relationships depicted are, and whether those relationships are explicitly romantic.

[Boys love, yaoi, shounen ai, male-male romance]

Anime found on Viki Rakuten. (details explain if subscription is needed:)

+ "Leiji Matsumoto;s OZMA" (watch free)
+ "My Little Boys" (watch free)

just gay anime, non-gay anime with gay characters, and gay-adjacent fruity stuff. quick thoughts on how gay they are, amount of boys kissing, and if BL anime, how toxic/problematic it is.

will not include any Nakamura BL anime because they're all problematic, repetitive, low-hanging fruit and the definition of homophobic and gay at the same time.

Anime based on BL novels, mostly donghuas/chinese novels.

Might write short reviews comparing the anime and the novels.
