Warehouse is kind of interesting, it's semi PWP but pretty intense and psychological, too. The art (not a super great example from the OP) is also pretty dynamic and neat, it's a lot more deliberately stylized. Hope it gets an official translation on Lezhin soon.

Ack, Okane ga Nai lol. It's kind of weird that one is so popular and even got an anime, the art is supbar and the plot super boring imo. The uke was creepy looking as fuck, and the seme was about six times bigger than him lol. There are a ton of junk BL out there, but I think between both Japan and Korea, there's getting to be more out there that have a different plot other than the old 2 guys meet, seme pursues and/or rapes uke, uke snivels and deliberates about it before deciding he's madly in love with seme after all, happy ending. I admit I kind of like BL bodice-rippers, but it's fun to stumble across ones that have a little more interesting characterization, or, heaven forbid, an engaging plot.

Lol I remember the seme's hand looking like it could crush the uke's head. I swear, very few good BL stories get an anime. I do like the bodice-ripper type stories too with all those dumb seme/uke dynamics, but too many of them bore me. I'm always pleasantly surprised when I read a BL manga with an actual plot or with the two guys switching (not enough of the IMHO) or when *gasp* they're actually gay and struggling with their identity and trying to fit into society.

Yeah, any BL that mentions one of the characters identifying as gay to me instantly gets points. Or at any point they have to "come out" to peers/etc. and not just hide it. It's always a bit of a pleasant surprise. I'd also love to read more switches, or at least where neither character is visually "the seme" vs "the uke". But then again, I also kind of like the seme/uke visual aesthetic (as long as the uke doesn't look like a fucking six-year-old and the seme doesn't have three men's worth of shoulders). I can think of a few BL I'd love to see proper anime for, but I guess the problem is they are generally too mature/violent for a studio to ever consider. Basically almost every BL anime adaptation is fluff. Well, with like.... two major exceptions I guess.
