Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[silverr]

... and not all yaoi has the rapey weepy-uke thing, either. (Granted, a lot does, but not all.)

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[ansela_jonla]

Every single time I've been recced a yaoi manga it's been full of those tropes.

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

And? That doesn't mean that every single yaoi manga is like that. Get better recs.

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[ansela_jonla]

You got any?

Pretty much anything by Miyamoto Kano and Kunieda Saika, their work consistently avoids that shit (not perfectly, but rapey stories are a minority), very heavy on plot and characters with a side of (consensual) porn. Mirai no Kioku (and its sequel Kaze no Yukue) from Kunieda are a great place to start with her. The massive Rules universe, with one long main story and a shitload of side stories, is Kano's best work. I'm very sensitive to rapey weepy uke tropes and those two are one of the very few whose work I can go into blindly without my yaoi armor on.

...yaoi armor...fer Chrissakes. I really can't blame you for being skeptical of this shit. The only reason I've got the above examples is after years of wading through crap. You're right that it's 80% rape and tears. It's just the few gems are so so good.

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[silverr]

Finding one where it's entirely absent ... yeah, I don't know nearly enough to suggest anything there.

However, if you can stand one more rec, (grins) I say take a look at Crimson Spell, which is a fantasy-romance yaoi. The very first encounter between the sorcerer and the Prince's demonic alter ego is dub-connish (some see it as more shading into non-con: I don't) but that's it. The Prince himself is conflicted and having a relationship with a man, but he ain't no weepy flower, and the sorcerer never forces himself on the unwilling.

(And the art is kinda gorgeous.)

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[ansela_jonla]

Crimson Spell is by the same mangaka as Finder, right?

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[silverr]

Yes. It's set in a high fantasy-type medieval setting.

(fwiw I have never been interested in Finder.)

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

There are tons of yaoi manga without that shit. There's a lot of crap, but there are a lot of good ones out there.

Re: What are your thoughts on yaoi?

[(Anonymous)]

Loooove Crimson Spell!
