This week we revisit Junjou Romantica — the iconic BL anime that shaped a generation of fujoshis. We unpack Misaki and Akihiko’s controversial dynamic, the power imbalance discourse, early-2000s BL tropes, and whether this series feels like nostalgic comfort… or a red-flag time capsule.

Did this story define the genre — and does it hit differently now?

New romance and BL episodes drop every Thursday. One Piece manga episodes — where we simp over shonen men — release every Tuesday. Follow along and subscribe to discover a new delusional boyfriend twice a week, every week.
