Yaoi (やおい) is a publishing genre which focuses on male/male relationships and is marketed at females. The genre originated in Japan and encompasses manga, anime, novels and dōjinshi. In Japan, this genre is called "Boys' Love" or simply "BL", and "yaoi" as a genre name is mostly used by western fans. Yaoi has spread beyond Japan; yaoi material is available in the United States, as well as other Western and Eastern nations worldwide.
I love Yaoi. I think it's a beautiful "art" form, though some has taken it to further and gone into the more "adult" area's of yaoi.
yaoi is anime/ manga
that has to do with love.
litterally translated it means "boys love"
in other words it is GAY manga that includes
characters that are male that are attracted
to other guys^_^
I LOOOOOVE YAOI^^
anyway, i hope this helped!
yuri is also just like yaoi
except it has to do with lesbians falling in love
[not really my cup of tea]
here has many info on it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoi
it means boyXboy
or gay
Yaoi means boys love (extreme)
That means boys love each other. It is also called hardcore boys love, wich means that the kissing and s.. scenes are very detailed^^
Shonen-Ai also means boys love, but it's not very detailed.
The same princip goes for Yuri.
Yuri means girls love (extreme)
-> girls love each other. Hardcore, wich means kissing and s.. scenes are very detailed
Shoujo-Ai also means gils love, but it's not very detailed. It's simple.
I hope that was at least a bit helpful.
