News Shippable (Gay)
This is a list for shows that are NOT BL, gay film, or "bromance" that is intended to be watched as BL (like the cdramas that don't show any explicit romance but intentionally use BL tropes). These are shows that are (at least ostensibly) not meant to be gay but I found them good for shipping gay ships.
If you're into non-canon gay ships, here are some random options :D
-
1. Kamen Rider Kuuga
Japanese Drama - 2000, 49 episodes
There's a scene where Ichijou wakes up in Godai's lap, which I thought was later in the show when they knew each other better, but turns out this happens in like episode 2 or 3. They proceed to be pretty married from there.
-
2. Kamen Rider Agito
Japanese Drama - 2001, 51 episodes
There're 3 single dudes running around, only one of whom shows any interest in women. Hikawa also clearly has kind of a crush on Agito.
-
3. Kamen Rider Ryuki
Japanese Drama - 2002, 50 episodes
This one is a popular one for shipping - I actually less true love shipped it and more thought Ren and Shinji could be in a weird situationship.
-
4. Kamen Rider 555
Japanese Drama - 2003, 50 episodes
Takumi and Yuuji are each others' white moonlight don't @ me
-
5. Kamen Rider W
Japanese Drama - 2009, 49 episodes
The theme song literally says they're two bodies and souls becoming one.
-
6. Kamen Rider OOO
Japanese Drama - 2010, 48 episodes
I feel like even the straight bros who watch KR for the power fantasy admit Eiji and Ankh are pretty gay.
-
7. Kamen Rider Fourze
Japanese Drama - 2011, 48 episodes
I felt like if Kengo were a girl he would clearly be assumed to be Gen's love interest. Or if you're not into that, a lot people like Gen with Ryuusei.
-
8. Kamen Rider Wizard
Japanese Drama - 2012, 53 episodes
I know this is considered less of a popular shipping show, but I felt like Nitou made the show/Haruto really come alive >>
-
9. Han Wu Da Di
Chinese Drama - 2005, 58 episodes
I'm aware this is a long historical epic. I still ended up really shipping Wei Qing with the emperor.
-
10. Red Cliff
Chinese Movie - 2008
Never thought I'd end up here, but I kiiiiinda shipped Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang in this version.
-
11. The Prince of Tennis
Chinese Drama - 2019, 42 episodes
It's based on a gaybait sports anime and is equally as shippable.
-
12. The Wandering Earth 2
Chinese Movie - 2023
The main character is raised by his two adopted astronaut dads.
-
13. Xtreme Vanguard
Chinese Drama - 2025, 21 episodes
You know they learned the right lessons from Kamen Rider because this show has the 3 most important toku elements:
- henshin kaiju fights
- Masahiro Inoue
- two dudes who just understand each other on a deep level -
14. I Sell Banmian in Qingbei
Chinese Drama - 2025, 6 episodes
Watched this while trying to tag shows on MDL and somehow it was kinda gay
