HoYay recommendations please.

You know what's fun? Looking at Otakon panel comments from Masayuki Ozaki where he's all, "Really, everyone kept telling us that nobody would really like Kotetsu because he's a middle-aged dude with a beard. Chicks in Japan don't really dig that."

Well, they do now, Ozaki. And the guys, too. Yes, even the straight ones.

I'm still holding out for two daddies ending. Kaede deserves no less. Fuck, give her a pony while you're at it. A flying pony. FAKE-OUT DEATH IS A FAKE-OUT, DAMMIT.

OH GUH you have NO IDEA how bad I want Kaede to have two daddies.

(And this is weirding me out a bit because Barnaby and Kotetsu are the polar opposite of my other m/m OTP...)

Episode four of Togainu No Chi. Starts out with Keisuke x Akira, goes to Rin x Akira, and wraps it up with Shiki x Akira. The other episodes are pretty Ho Yay-riffic too.

Basically any guy/Akira though the anime is based on a boys love game.

I wouldn't mind two daddies ending, but I'm kind of enjoying the "how blatant can they make the subtext without actually making it text" thing they've got going.

There's also lots of yaoi manga/anime with plenty of Ho Yay.

Saw the ending to No6. Nezumi kisses Sion again but he also leaves at the end.

Kyo Kara Maoh might be right up your alley, can't watch an episode of that without imagining the main character paired up with any of his male underlings.

Someone told me it was 'Boys-Love-Scented', it's equal parts subtext and text.

Yeah, Wolfram is totally in love with Yuuri.

Chapter 336 of Mahou Sensei Negima has some interesting Fate/Negi Ho Yay at the end. "He already belongs to me. Give up" indeed.

Star Driver

That thing runs on Ho Yay

Masahiro x Guren of Shonen Onmyouji. They intertwine fingers in the opening among other moments.

Anyone else notice how Ho Yay seems to run rampant within certain Mind Screw anime shows, like Neon Genesis Evangelion (Kaworu and Shinji), Revolutionary Girl Utena (Anthy and Utena and others) and Serial Experiments Lain (Lain and Alice)?

Vampire Doll too.

Chaotic Dreams may you use the edit button above your posts instead of double and triple posting, please?

You could check out the works on the Boys' Love Genre page that are commonly mistaken for Boys Love works.

If someone hasn't mentioned it already, Hetalia. Just...Hetalia. You'll have yourself asking, are there any straight couples in this show? To put it in perspective, Sweden refers to Finland as his wife, and Italy regularly sleeps in the same bed with Germany. And on top of that, it's funny.

Also, anything by CLAMP, especially XX Xholic, Legal Drug and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle. Oh God, XX Xholic with Watanuki and Doumeki. It can't be denied.

Yu Yu Hakusho definitely has some as well. Hiei and Kurama, were literally almost canon.

And whatevering Tiger And Bunny, aside from being an amazing anime it has Ho Yay out the whazzoo. I love it so much.

Ouran High School Host Club has quite a bit as well.

Also quite a bit of HoYay in Trigun now that I think of it. Especially Legato x Knives and Wolfwood x Vash, and then there's the Knives x Vash...

And oh god, I haven't mentioned Loveless. The Ho Yay there is beyond blatant.

Ah yes, and Uta No Prince Sama. While a reverse harem, it often feels to me that you could right the protagonist out and the whole show would float with Ho Yay alone.

Loveless, Cain and Shido of Nightwalker, Nabari No Ou, and Karneval. Oh and Saiyuki. And its been said before but Axis Powers Hetalia is really good in this regard as well. Just check out all the Ho Yay pages on the anime/manga section.

I find that Kaze To Ki No Uta has a lot of Ho Yay besides the yaoi couples.

Oh and Vampire Knight Kaname and Zero what with blood sucking being a metaphor for sex.

Also, Rune from Karakuridouji Ultimo towards Yamato though that's more text.

Plenty in Pandora Hearts like with Oz and Gil.

Yeah, No6 is pretty much text, I believe.

Fruits Basket has a few moments.

Even though the Ho Yay between Shion/Nezumi in No 6 is pretty much text it can't be stated enough how awesome it is.

Baka Test is full of ho yay, among other things.

Kyo Kara Maoh! is ho yay, up to the max, cause if you observe, it's like a yaoi harem series.

Has anyone suggested Yu Yu Hakusho yet? That one is rife with it,especially in the 3rd arc

male!Yuki and Luka in The Betrayal Knows My Name among others.
