Best BL Series (Through My INFP Lens)

This is LGBT story - so raw, so authentic, painfully honest but in the best way.It’s gonna stick with me for a long time.

Slow burn but not just love story, nope. It's a real gem. it’s slower paced, but every dialogue and every look actually means something. The whole thing just pulls you in with emotions.

At first I was like ‘hmm idk about this,’ but then the emotions slapped me in the face and suddenly I was drowning in feelings. Probably the most intense rollercoaster thing I’ve watched in a while.

This is like my ultimate definition of a comfort show , honestly… I wouldn’t have survived the first months of 2023 without it .

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a beautifully told love story.
Plus, it’s the first ancient Chinese BL (with actual kisses!!)

THIS. IS. ART. Visually, musically, acting-wise.

Stunning shots, gorgeous music, totally gave me Call Me By Your Name vibes. I was literally just soaking it all in visually

One of the rawest, grittiest stories I’ve ever experienced. So painfully real it broke me into pieces.  

This show is sooo underrated?? Like it’s such a pure love story, no toxic nonsense, no messy characters, good plot. Why is no one talking about it?

If falling in love with a love story is a thing… congrats, this is it.  It’s so adorable and has rewatch potential like 1000 times

I wasn’t ready for this wild plot. Thought I was just here for the NC stuff… but ended up loving the weird, gripping storyline. And the characters transformations made the show even better 

It’s about grief, hits harder than you expect, and honestly… worth every second

Not BL - a bromance, but chemistry between them and the lingering glances are unreal. Chef’s kiss compared to many BLs.

Low budget but honestly? So good. Story, acting, and a lil’ angst had me hooked

This show is so balanced between romance and everything else. Super fresh and different from other Thai BLs. Mentions real LGBT struggles and issues too.  Huge positive surprise

Very cute, solid acting plus a great soundtrack. Nobody asked, literally everyone needed it

It’s a bromance, but a good one.  Super family-oriented and it really melts your heart

Another great LGBT story - a romance that isn’t rushed, really makes you feel. This is set in the late ’80s Taiwan.

This isn’t BL, though it’s LGBT-themed and i absolutely loved the story.

I’m not a fan of the main couple,  but omg, HeartLiMing -  I loved it. And this series is just beautifully done in every way.

Probably in the minority here, but the second part of the story grabbed me way more plot-wise than the first (ITSAY). Maybe it’s because the characters started having real-life doubts. This part just felt way more authentic and relatable, so I could actually vibe with it.  Though it was def less artsy than the first part 

The best part of this is how the characters are developed and how emotions are shown in a subtle way.  Easly felt connected to the characters and their experiences.

This is also more of an LGBT story, but it really touched my heart. I didn’t expect it to turn out this way.. Stayed in my thoughts for weeks

I watched this like years ago! Wow! But I still remember how amazing the chemistry was in this one.

My  first BL series – I watched it back in 2015 when there weren’t many other titles yet, so I’m rating it a bit through the lens of nostalgia.

First of all, I’ve been so missing Chinese BLs (like, we’ve waited years). Technically this isn’t the best show - you could def pick on a bunch of things.  But what made me love this series?  The second couple (totally won me over)  + the awesome soundtrack + that super unique Chinese BL/bromance way of showing chemistry. They literally just look at each other and I’m gone...

This is a whole different caliber of story. Another one with depth, that talks about trauma, family secrets, but no romanticizing the problems. Beautiful slow burn, age gap, and a solid villian.

this series isn’t super outstanding ,  but the angst was so well balanced and I was shook at how the actors nailed that teenage intimacy  and closeness - awkward first kisses. Trigger warning: domestic violence

This is the BL series I’d recommend to anyone just entering the BL world . It’s cute but also super engaging.

This is honestly a really good series - one of the best from GMMTV.  Loved the cast!  Ohm definitely has more BL experience than Nanon, but Nanon’s still amazing. I was super into the story and  it didn’t feel nearly as cringe as some GMMTV series can be.
