Most characters and couples in BL have fixed seme/uke roles and it stays like this the entire story. It rarely happens that the characters switch roles and if they do they often only try it once. This stack is a collection of BL stories with reversible/versatile/switching characters, be it one time or several times throughout the story, or them changing over time.

This stack is a collection of BL manga with a darker setting. It includes psychological themes, dark pasts, underground settings, prison locations, dark fantasy/magic, and other things. The focus is less on the most disturbing stories but more on the overall setting, though some stories here are more messed up than others. Content warning: Some of these manga contain triggering elements like r*pe, abuse, torture, violence, blood, etc.

Tags: Dark Boys Love, Dark Yaoi, Dark Shounen Ai

This stack collects BL manga which have longer stories or several stories about different characters in one universe, but can't be easily found because they're not in one entry. Instead, they're split in many sequels, spin-offs, side-stories, etc. The stack doesn't list all related series but only the first manga or the main manga. Also check the "more info" tab on the DB entries, they might contain more information about the best reading order.

Tags: Boys Love long, BL long, Yaoi long, Shounen Ai long

Series with a prison setting/theme, either institutional jails or informal, DIY prisons.

Note: Once a series reaches 5 titles, it'll be moved to the larger stack called BL Series. I might eventually create a reading order for the series (especially for those I intend to read/complete)...

P.S. Only those with 3-4 titles are listed here as they might get more installments that could warrant a reading order guide/stack of their own. Those with only 2 titles aren't icluded; I might create a separate stack for those.

These manga predominantly or fully take place in the United States of America. [Source: Anime-Planet]
