I went to Torino Comix yesterday, with the usual suspects (Lu&Arm, Simo and Rico)and spent a much needed 4 hours talking about books, mangas, the horror that is Stone's Alexander and most of all *not* thinking about the thesis of doom. Almost ( Read more... )

That is a really cute cellphone strap!

There's homoerotica manga? I've never read Manga before, but that makes me interested!

Sorry for the unbelievable late response inkaddict May 24 2007, 12:54:19 UTC
*pets cell* Manga gadgets never fail to cheer me up. It's kinda like taking a peace of another world wherever you go.

Oh, yesssss! In the post above the term shonen ai (boy's love) is linked to its definition in wikipedia, if you're interested. That's the way I first got into the whole man-on man idea. It's difficult though to find really good stories, maybe because our tastes are a bit less...over-dramatical that the jap's seems to be (although you wouldn't say that looking at some fanfiction) or maybe it's the fact the the clear cut divisions of roles in the couple -seme and uke, with one all manly and protective and the other something creepily close to a woman with a penis, at least in some stories. A bit like eromenos and erastes, to give you a rough idea- can be a disturbing. Or that most of the stories that arrive in Italy are not much more than porn with a cliched plot :P
I would suggest CLAMP's works, which are not exacly shonen ai per se, but have clear homoerotic themes (like Tokyo Babylon, X1999, Clover and Lawful ( ... )

Ah, Tex Willer e il buon vecchio capelli d'argento! Il primo fumetto non si scorda mai :)
Il mio ogni tanto lo legge ancora, anche se ormai pare non sia più un gran che...che trisstessa.

Sì, sono fortunata nel reparto genitori.

Oddio, mi sono completamente scordata della con. Mi sono messa a fare un'animazione di una camminata (la mia prima) e ho totalmente perso la cognizione del tempo. :| Fiu che non mi sono persa granché!

Ah, quella cosa che ti dicevo che mi sono letta e che mi hanno passato è bukiyou na silent. Ho 3 file e credo che abbiano smesso di pubblicarlo. Se li vuoi, dimmi che te li passo. Full Metal Alchimist si trova online invece. Interessa il link? Però questo non è yaoi, anche se è un po' slashy.
