Yaoi: Turn ons and Turn offs.
(64 posts, 14120 views) Posted: 17d 12h, 29m ago by evilcleo in Yaoi/Yuri
I'm usually rather tolerant of most things. However, I do have a couple turn offs:
1) Extremely girly ukes. I don't mind girly ukes but there's a difference between feminine looking guys and characters that genuinely look like a shoujo girl.
2) Overly ...

New Poll - Rating Series
(35 posts, 667 views) Posted: 17d 12h, 50m ago by evilcleo in News
I'm usually for extremes. I mean, for most series there is a target audience and just because it might not be something that gains your interest, doesn't make it horrible for that reason alone. If I find one that bad or that good though, I'm enticed to ...

New Poll - Translation Accuracy vs Fluency
(56 posts, 1366 views) Posted: 24d 11h, 57m ago by evilcleo in News
Quote from puzzledsheep No, sarcasm is a thing in Japan...it's just that Western humour is different from Eastern humour. They don't use sarcasm as much as we do. It might be ok to make a sarcastic joke to a stranger at the bus stop here, but it cou ...

New Poll - Demographic Hate
(156 posts, 5854 views) Posted: 80d 11h, 53m ago by evilcleo in News
Ironic yaoi is leading. I mean, as much hatred towards it is shown, it has just as many successful manga series as any of the other genres. Has anyone tried reading manga on mangago? There's a 80% chance than any random manga you pick, it's p ...

New Poll - Anime OP/ED
(51 posts, 1998 views) Posted: 94d 18h, 46m ago by evilcleo in News
I have to question how well put the question was. I mean, sure, the ending and opening matter but let's be honest, you watch the anime for the actual show so obviously, you tend to like that the best. Which isn't one of the options. I mean, are you gonna w ...

Would you feel happier if the main heroine end up with the second guy?
(32 posts, 3447 views) Posted: 129d 16h, 8m ago by evilcleo in Shoujo/Josei
Only if the two guys stood on equal footing. Everytime I've read a shoujo where the second guy wins, the feelings aren't so strong and passionate as they were for the first guy. Makes it seem like he got cheated because although she's with hi ...

I put about the same. I mean, I am a student. Textbook and articles don't come in manga version although if they did, they'd be way more interesting. ...

Yaoi in polygamy setting
(4 posts, 427 views) Posted: 136d 10h, 50m ago by evilcleo in Yaoi/Yuri
I don't know if a yaoi like this exists but I've read a lot love triangles and I wonder what they'll be like in a setting where it's acceptable to have multiple lovers. Sometimes it just seems like an easier solution lol. ...

New Poll - Setting
(22 posts, 1481 views) Posted: 136d 11h, 26m ago by evilcleo in News
It is kind of typical and I guess we'd all think "been there, done that." I actually really like the setting though. My absolute favorite is fantasy/supernatural ones but I've been in school for a long time and that is the setting I am most familiar with ...

New Poll - Bad Spelling/Grammar
(81 posts, 3935 views) Posted: 164d 20h, 44m ago by evilcleo in News
I do think it's distracting but I overlook it unless it's so bad, it makes the scanlation useless. I mean, it's great that they're scanlating it but if it's not legible or you can't make sense of it, they're just wasting their time. ...

The wild (rose/fangs/wind) series by Yamagishi Hokuto. I mean, technically they're called manbeasts but they're more or less werewolves when you stick to the classic definition.
And maybe Zeus? Characters have supernatural powers, that make t ...

I'm gonna go on a limb and suggest royal fiance. It meets two of your requirements: guy is royalty and the marriage is arranged. However, it's only one volume and it's yaoi (boyxboy romance) so if you're okay with that, it might be worth ...

As long as they're well defined (that is you can tell it's a flashback) and not excessively used, I don't care. They usually add to the story and character depth if used well. ...
