005. Do you prefer serious or comedy?
Both of them works good for me.
006. What's a manga that made you cry?
Kage Aru Tokoro ni and Fullmetal Alchemist DJ - Freefall. I did not cry, but I was on the verge of tears :P
007. What's a manga that made you laugh?
Mossore and Chintsubu, I was LOL :D
008. What kind of Seme characters do you like?
Self-confident, (they can be shy or dorky too), easy-going, strong personality...
009. What kind of Uke characters do you like?
Easy-going, shy, dorky, playful, nice...
010. What kind of Seme character do you DISLIKE?
Those who upset and/or rape their ukes, and after that they say "I did it because I love you". Yet, I loved Endless World and Ochiru Seija no Seppun. In these stories, the characters are justified by the story, not because their own feelings.
011. What kind of Uke characters do you DISLIKE?
Those who can be replaced by a spoiled 14 years old girl and there's not difference. Yet, I liked Sex Pistols. So, it works for me if the story are interesting and how are the characters developing. But still... I can't stand muscular-macho ukes, they must be semes, not ukes! x(
012. What kind of setting is a turn on?
I have no preferences... I like the storytelling, not the setting... yet I liked the setting in Concrete Garden (a paradise inside a prision)
013. What kind of setting is a turn off?
Like I said before, I like the storytelling...
014. What do you think about mangas that don't have any "H" aspects?
There are excellent stories with just longing and yearning, and are better than others which have H aspects, like Kikoenai Koe. And there are very goood and perverted stories like Hoshi no Yakata, so I can say, I have no preference... yet, if its a good story and it has sex, it's better!
015. Do you like Younger semes?
I prefer Older semes, but I enjoy a good story with a younger seme.
016. Do you like clumsy, cowardly semes?
Yeah! I think they're cute.
017. Do you like school settings?
Not much, but stories like Shiranai Kao, Kanjou Spectrum, Rin!, Borderless, Kikoenai Koe are some of my favorites.
018. Do you like macho men?
Yes, as long as they're Semes.
019. Do you like long-haired guys?
I have no preference.
020. Do you like S&M stories?
Actually, I'm not searching for S&M stories, but I loved Hoshi no Yakata. I like certain masoquist characters from Yamashita Tomoko.
021. What mangaka's H scenes do you really like?
From Minami Haruka, P-Rhythm, Mizukami Shin, Sadahiro Mika, Tamaquis Wren, Nangoku Banana and Tori Maia
022. Is there an H scene you particularly liked?
Leopard Hakusho (I really liked how Tadatomo plays with Aya)
Uminari (The drawings are awesome and realistic)
NightS (Yoneda Kou shurely knows how to manage the eroticism)
Koi Negawakuha (When Kuro finds Yuki playing in his bed... ¡¡grrrhhh!!)
And a lot more...
023. What is a turn on in an H scene?
The uke's moanings and the seme's passion are sure a turn on, hahahaha! I really like when we can see EVERYTHING and how energetic the boys are, hahahaha!
024. Are you okay with realistically drawn H scenes?
Yes I'm so okay. And I'm ok with idealized H scenes too.
025. In manga H scenes, what position do you like most?
Doggy style!! hahahaha!
026. What do you think of mosaics?
They're annoying and stupid. we are seeing those boys already having sex, for crying out loud! What's the point in taking out of focus their private parts? Do the censors think "it's too much"?
027. What do you think about leg hair?
Fine with that.
028. What about armpit hair?
Fine with that.
029. What about pubic hair?
Perfectly fine.
030. Do you read BL novels?
I prefer to read fanfiction. I'm going to start reading a novel called (Feng Nong & Wang Yi) Feng Yu Jiu Tian, let's see how it goes.
031. Do you listen to BL drama CDs?
Noup. I don't understand japanese, so, why should I listen them?
032. Who are your favorite BL seiyuus?
Well, I liked to ear the voices of Kantarou and Haruka from Tactics, but I'm not very interested in that stuff.
033. Are there any manga besides BL that you enjoy?
Seinen, Josei, Shoujo...
034. Did you ever have non-canon pairings for the above manga?
Sure!
035. Do you fantasize about real people?

036. Have you ever played BL games?
Noup, I don't feel like it...
037. How long have you been a fujoshi?
When I saw my very first BL scene (Shun and Hyoga from Saint Seiya), I think I was 17 years old... When I started to search for yaoi and slash fanfiction, it was like 6 years ago...
038. What triggered you into becoming a fujoshi?
A lot of excellent fanfictions I read.
039. What makes you feel you are a fujoshi?
Making various guys couples on every movie or series I saw (Clark x Lex in Smallville, Mr. White x Mr. Orange in Reservoir Dogs, etc.). And feeling the pleasure when I see them or read their adventures :D
040. What is your fetish?
I think reading yaoi is a fetish by itself... maybe I'm a "voyeour".... mmhh, I like when the characters do cosplay too.
041. If you see BL manga magazines, what kind of description would make you want to purchase it?
Well, here in México doesn't sell magazines like June, BexBoy, Hug, Chara, Linx, etc. So I can't tell... maybe if I see an alluring cover, of if it contains stories of my favorite mangakas.
042. Do you have any friends who are fujoshi in real life?
I have two or three, but I haven't see them in a long time.
043. Do you have interest in the real gay world?
Kind of... I prefer the yaoi or slash idealization.
044. Have you ever seen gay porn or magazines?
Once I saw a gay porno movie, but it was 5 minutes of story, 20 of sex, 5 of story, 25 of sex, and so on... until two hours. In the beginning it's like "awesome!" but after that, you get bored, hahahaha!
045. Do you buy the comics? Or do you only read magazines?
At this moment, I have just downladed manga, because my country doesn't have that kind of magazines yet (I think). They got published Gravitation and I have 3 volumes.
046. Tell us why, and if you do buy magazines, which ones do you read?
---
047. What's a label you read most from?
---
048. Can you read BL manga openly in a bookstore?
hahahaha! Well, maybe, if I dare :D
049. Where do you buy your BL manga?
From a magazine store :D
050. On average, how much do you spend on BL manga a month?
I don't buy manga for now, but I spent 60 dollars in my BL manga (plus 100 in other manga, I think).
051. Do you buy based on the cover?
I prefer to buy based on the mangaka. And shame on me, I haven't bought anything.
052. Is there a Mangaka who's works you will buy without fail?
Nishida Igashi, she's wonderful.
053. Do you like or dislike it when a female appears in a BL manga?
I really appreciate when is a profound character, with strong personality, like the women of Takaguchi Satosumi y Yamashita Tomoko.
But the women that are just obstacles in the love of those boys, I can't stand them, and not just them, all those stories, I think they're boring and they lack of originality.
054. In school settings, what's a club activity you like for the setting?
I liked archery, judo, race...
055. How about cosplaying in stories?
I really have fun with that, and I like it more when they're perverted...
056. Are there any uniforms or clothing that is a turn on?
Well... I really like to see an uke like a french maiden, hahahaha! or with a disheveled kimono, uuuuoooooooohhh!!!
057. Gakuran or Blazer?
I like both of them!!
058. How about incest?
I really can't stand those stories... The ones I have read so far are always about "Oh, brother, take me and hit me!" and the other "Brother, now I'll punish you 'cos you don't pay enought attention to me!"... Ush, I prefer the Ouran Host Club brothers, hahaha. Those I really like them.
059. Do you like reversible uke/semes?
Not much. But I really liked Three Wolves Mountain.
060. What about animal sex?
Hahahaha, what a question! ok, let's see:
Sex with animals: Noup.
Sex dressed up as animals: Sure, (bonus if the story is a comedy... but there's no cosplay in a drama, right?).
Sex transformed in animals: There is a short scene in Wild Wind, but then it changes, hahaha. But still, it's a pretty perverted idea... xD
061. What's a location for good H scenes?
Any place is good for good H scenes.
062. Do you prefer rough, REAL art, or pretty and elegant art?
Both of them are fine with me when I really liked the story... there are few occasions when I like more the art than the storytelling though.
063. What kind of underwear do you prefer to see?
I like all of them (bikini, boxers, whites) but I like more when they took them off, hahaha!
064. Do you have any height preferences?
I prefer to see big, muscle semes and frail, short ukes... or both ot them big and muscle, or both of them frail and short, but I can't stand big, muscle uke and short, frail seme ¡¡nooooo!!!
065. Do you like two old guys together?
Yeah, sure, I love Nishida-sensei's old guys :D
066. What about old guys being the uke and young guys being the seme?
I don't like them very much, but Netsu no Hori and Koi Negawakuha are some of my favorite stories.
067. What about Shota?
Well, since we're talking about STORIES, I have no problem with that (I mean, it's not the real act), but I know it's a difficult subject. Besides, Mizukami Shin is very cunning, because she draws her ukes like 11 yo boys, but then they say: "I'm 18 yo" (yeah, right..)
068. What about gang bangs?
If it fits the story, I have no problem with that. In fact, other of my favorite mangas is Gamerz Heaven! Director's Cut - Rush ver. 2
069. Name a Seme character you thought was really hot and why.
I don't have favorites... I will answer later.
070. Name an Uke character you really liked and why.
I don't have favorites... I will answer later.
071. Do you like mangas that don't have a happy end?
I like when the story is complete, when it fits, when it makes sense. I don't have problems with unhappy endings, I do have problems with bad done endings.
072. If you were a gay guy, would you be uke or seme?
The uke... but, since i will have a "gun", i will like to use it, hahahaha, so maybe seme too.
073. Is there anything you wish they’d do in BL that’s either rarely explored or never been done before?
I need to think about it.
074. Do you wish they would incorporate other genres in BL or should BL stay BL only?
I will love that seinen and josei incorporate some BL in their stories, it would be awesome.
075. Is there a BL mangaka whose art or stories you absolutely can’t stand?
I have downloaded manga I can't stand, but I delete it right away from my computer, so I can't remember which authors I don't like, hahaha. I can say that story num. 3 "LL Size" from Ike Reibun, Hide and Seek has everything I hate from yaoi, it goes against all my beliefs, hahaha! But I do like other stories from the same mangaka, like Kanga na Spoon. So, I don't hate any magaka, I just ignore the ones I don't like.
076. Which new or emerging BL mangakas are you paying close attention to these days?
To Matsuo Marta and Hori Tomoki.
Hope you like it! ¡Saludos!

But the women that are just obstacles in the love of those boys, I can't stand them, and not just them, all those stories, I think they're boring and they lack of originality.
054. In school settings, what's a club activity you like for the setting?
I liked archery, judo, race...
055. How about cosplaying in stories?
I really have fun with that, and I like it more when they're perverted...
056. Are there any uniforms or clothing that is a turn on?
Well... I really like to see an uke like a french maiden, hahahaha! or with a disheveled kimono, uuuuoooooooohhh!!!
057. Gakuran or Blazer?
I like both of them!!
058. How about incest?
I really can't stand those stories... The ones I have read so far are always about "Oh, brother, take me and hit me!" and the other "Brother, now I'll punish you 'cos you don't pay enought attention to me!"... Ush, I prefer the Ouran Host Club brothers, hahaha. Those I really like them.
059. Do you like reversible uke/semes?
Not much. But I really liked Three Wolves Mountain.
060. What about animal sex?
Hahahaha, what a question! ok, let's see:
Sex with animals: Noup.
Sex dressed up as animals: Sure, (bonus if the story is a comedy... but there's no cosplay in a drama, right?).
Sex transformed in animals: There is a short scene in Wild Wind, but then it changes, hahaha. But still, it's a pretty perverted idea... xD
061. What's a location for good H scenes?
Any place is good for good H scenes.
062. Do you prefer rough, REAL art, or pretty and elegant art?
Both of them are fine with me when I really liked the story... there are few occasions when I like more the art than the storytelling though.
063. What kind of underwear do you prefer to see?
I like all of them (bikini, boxers, whites) but I like more when they took them off, hahaha!
064. Do you have any height preferences?
I prefer to see big, muscle semes and frail, short ukes... or both ot them big and muscle, or both of them frail and short, but I can't stand big, muscle uke and short, frail seme ¡¡nooooo!!!
065. Do you like two old guys together?
Yeah, sure, I love Nishida-sensei's old guys :D
066. What about old guys being the uke and young guys being the seme?
I don't like them very much, but Netsu no Hori and Koi Negawakuha are some of my favorite stories.
067. What about Shota?
Well, since we're talking about STORIES, I have no problem with that (I mean, it's not the real act), but I know it's a difficult subject. Besides, Mizukami Shin is very cunning, because she draws her ukes like 11 yo boys, but then they say: "I'm 18 yo" (yeah, right..)
068. What about gang bangs?
If it fits the story, I have no problem with that. In fact, other of my favorite mangas is Gamerz Heaven! Director's Cut - Rush ver. 2
069. Name a Seme character you thought was really hot and why.
I don't have favorites... I will answer later.
070. Name an Uke character you really liked and why.
I don't have favorites... I will answer later.
071. Do you like mangas that don't have a happy end?
I like when the story is complete, when it fits, when it makes sense. I don't have problems with unhappy endings, I do have problems with bad done endings.
072. If you were a gay guy, would you be uke or seme?
The uke... but, since i will have a "gun", i will like to use it, hahahaha, so maybe seme too.
073. Is there anything you wish they’d do in BL that’s either rarely explored or never been done before?
I need to think about it.
074. Do you wish they would incorporate other genres in BL or should BL stay BL only?
I will love that seinen and josei incorporate some BL in their stories, it would be awesome.
075. Is there a BL mangaka whose art or stories you absolutely can’t stand?
I have downloaded manga I can't stand, but I delete it right away from my computer, so I can't remember which authors I don't like, hahaha. I can say that story num. 3 "LL Size" from Ike Reibun, Hide and Seek has everything I hate from yaoi, it goes against all my beliefs, hahaha! But I do like other stories from the same mangaka, like Kanga na Spoon. So, I don't hate any magaka, I just ignore the ones I don't like.
076. Which new or emerging BL mangakas are you paying close attention to these days?
To Matsuo Marta and Hori Tomoki.
Hope you like it! ¡Saludos!
