Boys Love (670)

Same-sex romantic/sexual relationships between men are the focus of these stories. The term Boys Love and its abbreviation BL are commonly used to refer media written by women for female audiences in Japan, while the term Bara is often used for media written by men for male audiences. In the West, the terms Shounen Ai (romantic/non-sexual) and Yaoi (sexual) are more commonly used for BL. On MAL, Boys Love combines all homosexual relationships between men and explicit genres (Ecchi, Erotica, Hentai) are used to indicate the sexual content level. This means most Shounen Ai stories have no explicit genres, most Yaoi are labelled Ecchi or Erotica, and most Bara are labelled Hentai.

Sessa Takuma!

Kodaka, Kazuma 2024
Takuma Ban, only son of the Ban familly from Hokkaido, comes to Tokyo on a quest: to find a fitting wife... with the help of Meari his cow. Jumping over a school fence while carrying Meari on his back, he unexpectedly meets a girl, Yuki Samejima. After one minute, he decides that SHE'll be his bride. Unfortunately for Takuma, Yuki's older brother, Ranmaru Samejima, is completely opposed to this.

Of course, the fact that Meari seems to have developed an instant "animal" attraction to him only reinforces Ranmaru's dislike of Takuma. Takuma is determined to make Yuki his bride and that, despite Ranmaru's stern "objections". Nevertheless, when not only Kei Enjouji but also Takuma's own family start getting involved, things get a little … "chaotic".
