My first one was Love in the Air, a friend recommended it to me and after that i watched The Boy Next World and Love Sea after that i started watching Me and Thee that’s when i really got obsessed with bl. How many Bl shows did ya‘ll watch?

Love in the Air was my second one, but that's the series that got me addicted. I also watched The Boy Next World (and re-watched it I don't know many times) and Love Sea (that I dropped in the middle). Regarding the BL shows we watch, should we open a new discussion about it? I would need to look at my Watch List, I lost count since I started watching BL 1,5 years ago.

Mine was Tharntype after a friend recommended it to me. My first one was one of the most toxic dramas

Since 2023 I’ve watched over 400. Safe to say I’m obsessed. Lol.

Are there over 400 BL ? 🫣 I started in 2025, so I am so far behind 😄 But let's create a discussion just for this topic, I have so many questions!

Oh there are way more than 400. I still have a long PTW list. Plus so many new ones are coming out now it’s hard to keep up with everything.

I don't remember which one it was, but I think it was either the Takumi-kun Series 1: And the Spring Breeze Whispers or Ai no Kotodama. I stumbled upon them by chance after looking for Japanese movies on Youtube. It was definitely in 2015 as I had watched Love Sick season 1 after those, and the 2nd season wasn't out yet.

To add to this, I remember having liked love sick 1 and even waiting for the 2nd season but when it came out, I lost interest after 2eps. I come back to BL in 2018 and picked the series up again, which is when I started liking the genre more, but I wasn't obsessed.

So I would say I really started actively watching BL in 2018.

The series that started my obsession was SOTUS.

I still have in on my PTW list, you're not the first one mentioning it. As if I needed even more obsession ;-)

I've seen shows with gay couples before but my first actual live action BL was I Cannot Reach You.
