That doesnt mean I want no romance. I just dont want it to be the main focus. Not too in your face but a close bond between the two or more guys. A longer runner series is preferable but not necessary.
Examples are:
Loveless
Fake I think..? I stopped pretty fast. Got a bit bored. I might finish it..someday.
Sorta examples but not really:
Getbackers
Saiyuki
Ok let me explain. Those 2 are not yaoi or bl at all. And I only saw the anime. But there was enough sorta hints, teases, and no girls really getting between the guys to keep my inner bl fangirl happy. Then again that just may have been me seeing it through fangirl goggles.
If this topic has been done before sorry. 🤢

- Gengetsurou Kitan
- MW
- Animal X
- From Eroica with Love
- Mirage of Blaze (novel)
- Patalliro
- Hagio Moto's stuff. Scanlated so far : Marginal, Poe no Ichizoku, Thomas no Shinzou, Zankoku na kami ga shihai suru
not too in your face but a close bond :
- Tokyo Babylon, and many CLAMP's works
- Golden Days. It does have plenty teases that make me squee, though I needed 3 vols before I completely love it 😛
- Banana Fish
most of them aren't published in BL imprints 🤣

You might want to try some works by Sugiura Shiho and Morimoto Shuu. Silver Diamond by the former and Jinjuu Houretsuden by the latter are particularly good examples.
