However as you are aware China, like every country has challenges as far as gay representation and acceptance. I understand the importance to find good representation and honestly I do see lq as one of the few series that I can strongly identify with and I’m happy others think so too. The problem earlier was people calling others homophobic for not shipping characters. Bi person here who loves Bi Jinghua/Xihua. Who are glad to see some LGBTQ+ representation in fantasy anime would appreciate if you stop trying so hard to make gay things straight and continue watching your heterosexual fantasy shows. may be liking something that can be interpreted as “Gay” insults you? please tell me. What I don’t really understand is your annoyance in people interpreting the original comic/chinese version/japanese version as something gay.

Have you seen any special categorization of fantasy shows where there is a main male and female pairing. This can be a normal fantasy show with a homosexual couple. It is also important to acknowledge not all lgbtq+ content should be categorize under certain themes such as shounen ai, yaoi, yuri, shoujo ai. the homophobia in China) to categorize it under shounen ai you can’t blame the people who watch the Japanese version and think the characters are in love with each other.

Just because the original content didn’t have the balls(given the circumstances i.e. Chinese media has a notorious history of homophobia.īut the Japanese version is in fact shounen ai no matter how many times you try twisting it to sound different.There is also a clear romantic/sexual attraction between two protagonists which you can not deny or refuse as just fan service. Original Chinese animation, I don’t know how it’s been originally tagged. Original Chinese comic is not tagged as BL Well I thought it’d be better if I do it without the involvement of the said person This was supposed to be a reply to some person who tried so hard to deny the relationship between the two male protagonists using how the original creators of Chinese comic and anime didn’t categories it under shounen ai label.
