Dekichatta Danshi features Childhood Friends as the main couple and they raise an infant together. Crimson Spell is a hybrid of Heroic Fantasy and Boys' Love. Chintsubu is a manga about boys with talking penises. 
Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!. Caste Heaven is a psychological drama that's heavy on Nightmare Fuel. Very explicit and mature-themed around family duty, the ruthlessness and constant violence of the yakuza world, Revenge, If It's You, It's Okay and the problems such a relationship can cause in a very gay-unfriendly setting contrasting the sweet moments and otherwise touching developments. Bi no Kyoujin: A Yakuza leader falls for a young and clever smuggler. Acid Town is one of the most unusual numbers on the list, being rather light on the sex (which appears as nothing but a byproduct) and very heavy on a storytelling full of dark themes such as child abuse, broken homes, violence, prostitution, drug trafic, crime and more. Furthermore, transmasculine fans may relate strongly to men being assigned feminine bodies and female social roles. While some stereotypes and cliches remain, such as characters denying homosexuality, or lack of realism with regard to gay culture, and the prevalence of rape fantasy as a common theme, modern BL often grapples with subjects like homophobia and gay identity, and has gained popularity among gay men as a result. 
With its roots in the chinbi (aesthetic) novels of the 1970's and doujinshi culture, commercial Boy's Love has developed drastically in terms of style and content. The word itself comes from "yamanashi, ochinashi, iminashi" (or "no climax, no ending, no meaning"), though fans have also come up with another memetic acronym: "Yamete! Oshiri ga itai!" ("Stop it! My ass hurts!") However, the term is outdated in Japan and now uses the more neutral term "Boys' Love" to describe the genre, which also refers to any gay content in general. Typical pairings have the seme and the uke roles, which signify the characters' roles during sex, penetrative and receptive respectively, and often times even dictate their personalities and masculinity relative to each other.
Yaoi, also known in Japan as "Boys' Love", is a subgenre of Shoujo focusing on male homosexuality, for a predominantly female audience.
