Baraou no Souretsu

Dark and edgy stuff found by yours truly the grim reaper edgelord crow

Series that are not BL but have a rich BL potential and fanbase. Includes some popular shippings and shipping potential between the two male leads.

These anime and donghua feature members of a royal family. They may be rulers, royal heirs, or people who have become royalty by other means, such as marriage, divine decree, or simply taking the throne. In rare cases, an exceptional individual will actually build their own kingdom from the ground up. While some characters enjoy the wealth and privilege their position affords them, others may be trying to distance themselves from their royal responsibilities. More tragic figures include survivors of fallen kingdoms and exiled royals fighting to survive and, in some cases, reclaim what they have lost.

This year there has been more shoujoseis animes than usual, so i think a list would help if someone's interested, i'll say a short thoughts on the animes too.

This is not include animes that has inspired by classic lit or mentions it, mainly this is on anime that adapts or loosely adapts on classic lit. (Note: I'll try and update as much as I can and add some obscure ones!)

They may be not enterly evil, but still their morality is a little bit different than that of average pearson

Royal family members, aristocrats and children from really rich and influential families

More hidden gems (once again, only ones that ranked below 2000 in 'Popularity' on MAL), though lesser ones than in part 1 in my view, but are still worth checking out. Will continue to fill the missing slots overtime.

All these anime's include very shippable characters who mostly have no other person in the anime you could possibly ship them with. This is a marketing ploy because this makes anime/ships very popular as well as being apart of the lgbtqia+ community is not openly embraced by any Asian media. A lot of these anime's has novels, manga chps, side manga, official art, and drama cds that are very suggestive or downright very gay. They have all have very suggestive scenes in the animes as well including op, ed, end credits that are very fruity.

disclaimer: Includes anime with non-canon couples, non canon lgbt but all animes are gay coded in a way that queer people recognize. Also most have anime with canon lgbtqia+ characters

Anime for a common audience that includes representation of marginalized communities without being narrowly focused queer or quuerbaiting content. The purpose of the list is to try and neutrally compile a list of shows with a diverse cast that isn't subject to the heavy fascination with ships and other wishful thinking. Therefore, you will not see any "heavily hinted" and other typical speculation for such stocks here.

Warning, for some of the included shows, this topic, as well as its image, may be a spoiler. Also, English is not my native language, so if my vocabulary in describing a particular topic may sound problematic, feel free to let me know. I will correct the text as soon as possible.

Shows, OVAs and movies with Historical European fashion, setting, or both.
Still being updated. Feel free to message/comment if you think something needs to be added :)
Mostly 19th century, with a few exceptions (noted)
