2021: A Year That Certainly Happened

In lieu of my traditional (lol I've done it maybe three times) "top ten things that happened to me this year" list, I'm going to share some of my favorite media that I consumed.

It is, in fact, the way in which I celebrated the victories of my personal life that inspired me to look back on the year this way. I had two major life events occur this year (advancing to PhD candidacy and a milestone birthday) that in normal times would have warranted some sort of party or trip but, due to the ongoing pandemic and the generally isolating nature of grad school, led merely to grabbing some more-expensive-than-normal takeout and watching my favorite shows at home. At a time when in-person socializing continued to be iffy, media helped keep me company, and will be what I remember when I look back on this weird time.

Music

In general, I felt like this year was somewhat weaker music-wise than the surprisingly fruitful 2020, but there was still plenty to enjoy:

-Marina: After the decidedly underwhelming Love + Fear, Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land was a refreshing return to form. I know a lot of people though the more political lyrics were corny, but...I don't care, they spoke to me? Personal highlight: "Venus Fly Trap", which imo is a spiritual sequel sung by the more mature protagonist of The Family Jewels' "Oh No!", maybe my fave song by her.

youtube

-Jessie Ware: What's Your Pleasure was my favorite album of 2020 hands down; somewhat surprisingly because up until then I had been pretty lukewarm on Jessie Ware as an artist. The deluxe version this year (released when she was like 38 weeks pregnant, btw) only enhanced this wonderful album, which is def not true of most bonus tracks!

youtube

Her collab with Kylie Minogue, "Kiss of Life", was also one of the best tracks this year--why it isn't the #1 song in the world is a mystery to me. The Pedro Almodovar-inspired video is also amazing!

youtube

-Go_A, "Shum": The Eurovision Song Contest has gotten less camp in recent years with the introduction of the combined jury/public vote system, but it has led to an increasing number of genuine bops making it to the final. This year in particular was one of the strongest in recent memory. While I liked the winner, Italy's Måneskin, my personal favorite was Ukraine's entry, "Shum" by Go_A. It's the perfect Eurovision song: it showcases the band's roots by being adapted from Ukrainian folk music (they even had to rework the song so it sounded less like the original) and using the Slavic White Voice vocal technique, while also being an outstanding pop song. Lead singer Kateryna Pavlenko's aesthetic is also impeccable.

youtube

What can I say? TV keeps getting made and I keep watching. The first half of the year was pretty slow (likely bc of the early Covid shutdowns), but the summer onward was an embarrassment of riches.

-The Great S2: perhaps recency bias is at play, but my fav show of the year. It took everything that was great about S1 and turned it up to 11. Catherine and Peter really have the most twisted and fascinating dynamic of just about any ship (if you can call it that). Unfortunately it seems to have gotten lost among the holiday season as well as having to run against Succession S2--don't sleep on it. S2 Ep 5 is prob my favorite episode of tv this year.

-Call My Agent!: I spent much of the first half of this year watching foreign shows almost exclusively. This French show about a Parisian talent agency featuring cameos by stars of French cinema (and Sigourney Weaver!) playing heightened versions of themselves was perfect quarantine content--funny and heartwarming. I'm glad Netflix decided to order more after it was done. Also happy to see Camille Cottin blowing up!

-What We Do in the Shadows S3: another show that seems to live in the shadows (see what I did there) of more high profile comedies; it also continued to keep upping its quality this year. The image of the baron in the Barbie car is one of the most hilarious visual gags I've ever seen. And then there's this:

youtube

-Succession S3: Too much digital ink has already been spilled on this show. It is really good, though.

-Never Have I Ever S2: possibly Mindy Kaling's best work? This show does a great job of keeping you invested in someone who can be an incredibly unlikeable character. Perfect soundtrack too.

-The Pursuit of Love: perhaps a bit derivative of Wes Anderson stylistically, but I still really enjoyed it. Yet another show that seemed to have gone under the radar (maybe due to the Lily James/Dominic West drama behind the scenes). Recommended for fans of all things Mitford (but srsly WHEN are we getting a mini series about them?).

-RuPaul's Drag Race UK, S2: I've finally reached the point of fatigue with the multiple international iterations of Drag Race; if you have a Wow Presents Plus subscription, you can be watching new Drag Race virtually every week of the year. That said, I have to shout out DRUK S2, which was even more engaging than the delightful S1, even though its filming was interrupted by the initial Covid outbreak in March 2020. Plus it gave us this banger:

youtube

"New to Me" TV

Even though it seems like there's so much new streaming content that one could not possibly have the time to watch older shows, I still found the time to catch up with some older stuff that I had missed that warrant mention:

-Borgen: One of those shows that I had been hearing great things about for years but couldn't find until it came to Netflix. Let me be the first to ask where I can get merch that says "What Would Birgitte Nyborg Do?" I am a little bit worried about the upcoming revival season on Netflix, partially due to the fact that key characters are missing (always a foreboding sign for a revival, and already a problem in S3) but also because I wonder how the writers will reconcile Denmark's harsh anti-immigration measures as of late with Birgitte's historical pro-refugee positions (especially since she's apparently going to be foreign secretary!)

-Reboot-era Degrassi: Degrassi: The Next Generation was probably my favorite teen show when I was a teen myself. I fell off the show as the older group of characters that I liked graduated and it started to decline in quality, c. season 6, and kind of disdained the newer seasons without even watching them bc I felt like they were too glossy and conventional compared to the charming realism of the early TNG seasons (also Emma and Spinner got married, WTF?). Cut to earlier this year when, in a fit of nostalgia, I started watching the Degrassi channel on Pluto TV. I avoided the later seasons at first, but it ended up being hard since the show moved to a 40+ episode/season telenovela format starting in season 10, dropping the TNG suffix in the process. As it turns out, these seasons (well, 10-12, after which another period of decline set in) were actually pretty good--giving a much needed refresh to the series by severing ties with the first TNG group altogether and focusing more heavily on contained story arcs. Special shout out to the arguable emotional core of this era, Eclare (Eli/Clare), who have entirely too much chemistry for a PG-rated Canadian teen drama (and who I may or may not be writing my first ever fic about, oops); someone please get Munro Chambers and Aislinn Paul to star in a Canadian remake of Normal People, stat. Just look at them:

youtube

-Insecure: This is one of those shows where I was lukewarm on the pilot so I never got around to continuing it, even as it amassed critical acclaim. I did start watching the final season since it aired after Succession and absolutely loved it, even though I've missed the middle 3.9 seasons. I still need to catch up on those, and will once I get a HBO Max login.

Movies

I usually don't see that many new movies in a year; TV is really more my vibe just bc I prefer longform exploration of character. That said I'll still seek out movies that look particularly interesting or appealing to me personally. The fact that so many movies debut on streaming now does make that easier.

-Barb and Star Go To Vista del Mar: After Bridesmaids, a new Kristen Wiig/Annie Mumolo joint is going to be a must-see for me. This was probably the funniest movie I've seen in years, but it seems to have slipped under the radar in the midst of streaming-only releases. Features possibly Jamie Dornan's best performance?

-Tick, Tick...Boom!: I know that liking Rent is uncool these days (if it was ever cool), but its soundtrack was formative for me, so I'm def up for any Jonathan Larson-related content. Andrew Garfield really captured the spirit of Jonathan Larson, and I felt like the movie's overall discussion of what it means to be an artist and keep pursuing one's dreams as one gets older was particularly resonant (especially as someone who just hit the same birthday Jonathan does in the movie). Also my former workplace is featured prominently in the background as IRL it's across the street from the former location of the Moondance Diner, and it was nice to see the movie take place in streets that are familiar to me.

Books

I'm the typical Millennial former bookworm-turned-internet addict with a destroyed attention span who barely actually reads anymore. I have found myself with more reading time as my work involves a lot of time on a microscope that takes 10 minutes to acquire one image. Now much of that time has involved re-reading the Princess Diaries series (I was deep in nostalgia mode this year) and scrolling through gossipy figure skating accounts on Twitter (spending 5-8 hours in a dark room is quite mentally draining) but I did manage to read one new lit fic book that came out this year:

-No One is Talking About This: On the one hand, I kept taking multiple screenshots of my Libby app because there were several quotes that were either super-LOL worthy or profound or both. It does rely heavily on references that will only make sense if you are Extremely Online, so I do wonder how it plays to people who aren't. I also wonder if people will even be able to read this book in 10 years time due to how specific it is to late 2010s social media. That said, it is an easy read and it takes a narrative turn that is completely unexpected.

YouTube Channels

I never really understood the appeal of YouTube channels as one's primary form of entertainment until I faced a particularly slow lab period between finishing up my classes and writing my thesis proposal. It turns out that there is actually more on there than conspiracy theorists! Here are some I listened to while playing games on my iPad this year:

-Trash Theory: Basically an encyclopedic guide to most of my favorite music, especially his "New British Canon" series. Soothing and informative; I've learned things about artists I thought I already knew everything about and gotten a better picture of artists I've only been a casual fan of.

youtube

-Mic the Snare: Another music channel, I especially like his recently-revamped Deep Discog Dives on various artists; his reviews are generally well-measured.

youtube

-The Skating Lesson: I've been following these guys since I started watching figure skating in 2018, but I want to give them a special shoutout for their coverage of all things Russian figure skating drama in the lead up to the 2022 Winter Olympics. They're divisive in the figure skating community for their gossipiness, but their info is generally legit.

#no one is prob going to read this but idc #I could include podcasts but this was getting too long #the year that was #acting like i'm some kind of tastemaker or something

What are your top 5 notps

tHANK YOU for asking me I woke up this morning still kinda salty so like.

These are gonna be in no particular order btw so ye! Also Ma/bill and Mab/ifica aren’t gonna be included as I already talked about why I don’t like those ships and why are they are part of my ever-growing notp list.

1. D/rarry (Harry Potter)

Honestly? Just don’t like it. Like... that’s it. I like Dramione well enough, it was actually one of the first ships I started reading fanfiction for (as I just so happened to find a fic that sounded interesting that had it, read it, and was hooked) and I am a multi-shipper with certain characters, so by all means I should like d/rarry but I just don’t?

My theory for why I dislike this ship is easy: I find protag/antag ships kinda boring now after doing like. Everything with bill/dip. Don’t get me wrong, bill/dip and d/rarry are. Very different in numerous ways, but d/rarry reminds me of bill/dip and I already played and read about the dynamics of a protag/antag ship like this, so trying to get into d/rarry, which is similar, was boring for me.

Also, in general, I don’t ship Harry with anyone? Like I dislike h/inny too, but that’s more of “I don’t like it, but it’s canon, and I have to deal with it so might as well just Not Care” instead of outright hating it. And though I say I would’ve preferred Harry to end up with Hermione, I don’t ship those two together either!

The only ship with Harry I kinda sorta like is Harry/Luna and even then, I see them as being something really low-key. No sexual relationship, just them being good friends and being borderline, what they would consider “romantic” once in a blue moon. And that’s it?

Anyways, I find d/rarry boring and I feel like there isn’t anything new to the ship for me and shipping Harry w anyone sexually or in a heavily romantic way makes me kinda uncomfortable and I Don’t Like It so yeah.

2. Amenadiel/Linda (Lucifer)

God. Idk how many people who follow me watch Lucifer but this ship is. No. No? Nooooo?

They’re just. So awkward together. They’re kinda awkward together as friends but their awkward friendship is more kinda cute than anything. But together like... romantically? No? Pls no?

I also ship Linda with Maze like. A lot. A lot a lot. I ship Linda w Maze more than I do Chloe w Lucifer at least like. I am actively talking to the TV when I see Linda and Maze together to PLEASE KISS PLEASE YA’LL ARE SO GAY FOR EACH OTHER ITS OBV PLS KISS

Hasn’t happened yet but. But. It could happen. I am really hoping this ain’t q*eer/baiting tho. I r r r hope so. I mean. Maze and Lucifer are both confirmed to be bi/pan basically (tho Lucifer seems to have a pref for women) so there are technically lgbt+ characters in the show already but like. But. B u t.

Anyways. Luckily for me, it looks like Amenadiel/Linda won’t be canon at ALL and I really hope it stays that way and they stay kinda awkward friends. That’s cuter and a lot more interesting than shipping them together in my book.

3. Hermione/Snape (Harry Potter)

Is anyone surprised this is a ship, really? I mean if you’ve been on tumblr for any length of time you’re prob sayin’ nah. Thing is, I found about this ship years before I had a tumblr and on ffnet so I was kinda. Shocked? As I didn’t realize how. Weird ships could get.

And I can’t really say much about adult/minor ships or teacher/student whatever. I really can’t. But this is just so. Fucking random? Like. I guess bill/dip is random too.... but also i feel Hermione/Snape is even more so.

And idk most the fics I’ve seen of this ship is just standard student/teacher shit nothing all that. Interesting I guess to me? which is if you like standard student/teacher whatever I guess but that doesn’t cut it for me.

But again. Why? Is it because Hermione is muggle-born and Snape an ex-magical na//zi? That’s.... even I wouldn’t touch that can of worms Jesus Christ. Like. I don’t get it. I don’t get it, I don’t wanna get it, and I’m gonna continue disliking it from my own corner and mind my own business ‘cause I don’t even wanna know.

4. Kat/aang (Avatar: The Last Airbender)

Z/utara should’ve been canon

No really I grew up watching A/tla and like. It was my fav show and I. Really liked Katara and Zuko together esp as I only shipped canon ships at that time for the most part (or if I didn’t like it I’d just ignore it but not actively ship those characters with anyone else) as I was young and didn’t think you could. Ship two people who aren’t together in canon I guess.

But then. Kat/aang happened and I went “Wtf” and “that’s not right Zuko and Katara should’ve been together wtf wtf” I felt really cheated. And so Z/utara was the first technical non-canon ship I ever had.

Another reason I dislike kat/aang is that, for me, it felt forced, and the kat/anng episodes (like cave of two lovers or whatever its called) are just. Boring. And dumb. And not that good. I felt like they ended up together bc protagonist and deuteragonist not because I felt they went well together.

Idk! I felt like Aang and Katara had a more sibling relationship together! Like she was more of an older sister to Aang than anything else! And his crush on her was more like the young boy who has a crush on his older babysitter sorta thing but obv that would never go anywhere and it’d fade.

That’s the general vibe I got so when they got together I was. Kinda uncomfortable. Because I felt they had a sibling relationship. And I felt it kinda came out of left field, was forced, and just. Stereotypical? Boring?

I mean I still enjoy the show and it’s, again, kinda like a “well it’s canon so whatever” but I still dislike it a lot and still feel like z/utara should’ve been canon.

5. Ma/korra

I liked Korra well enough, but lets be real, the first season had some MAJOR issues trying to include a stupid love triangle like they were adapting some shitty YA novel. And even tho the second season was kinda blah as well, the third and fourth season made up for the previous two in my book.

But... ma/korra was just. A fucking mess. I hate this ship as I hate the things is stands for.

The girl hate between Korra and Asami, Korra being a fucking asshole to Bolin (WHO IS A SWEETIE PIE HOW COULD YOU) and just. Me sitting there. Going “Are we really doing this. Are we really. How could you write a series as amazing as a:tla and think that a short sequel series needed something as complex as a LOVE TRIANGLE.

(and yes: proper long triangles are very hard to pull off, very complex, could be a plot in itself, and that’s why most everything fails when incorporating one as a subplot lol)

When the love triangle popped up, I just. No. No. Mako isn’t a bad guy ‘cause he liked Asami instead of Korra. Asami isn’t a bad guy ‘cause she liked Mako back. And the narrative kinda painted both of them as being “bad” because... idk Korra didn’t get the guy? Like Christ. Please stop. Please stop characterizing Korra as a fucking asshole and some sort of girl version of a Nice Guy TM.

And though I think Korra and Mako did get some nice moments between each other once together, and though overall their relationship, on paper minus all the other shit wasn’t like. Pure garbage or anything, I def ship Korra with Asami a hell of a lot more. And the entire love triangle bullshit just. Ruined Mako and Korra, at least in my opinion. (Bolin and Asami came from that unscathed for me). It took me quite a while to start liking Mako again ‘cause of the love triangle and same with Korra.

So I guess for ma/korra it’s less the ship itself (tho imo the ship itself isn’t that special and kinda whatever) I hate the ship for what it did to the show and what it reminds me of. If that makes any sense.

THIS IS SUCH A LONG POST I’m sorry but. Yeah I was salty last night and had a LOT to say.

And I have more notps for sure but I have to... remember them. I tend to kinda forget my notps as well. I don’t like them. Why remember them?

Anyways, thanks for the ask!!

the gay ass anime masterpost*

*not actually a masterpost, since i give about two and a half fucks about keeping this updated or properly categorized. real loose classifications to follow. shit i haven’t seen in italics; stuff i’d highly recommend in bold. now updated w/ streaming links (some are US-only tho, sorry)

no predatory lesbians or okama joke characters or else we’ll be here all day. k? k.

LGBT-THEMED: anime that directly addresses LGBT identity as one of its primary focuses

Revolutionary Girl Utena

the ez one

Yurikuma Arashi

Class S is bullshit, did u know that. Also, thirsty-ass bear girls and a real angry takedown of the patriarchy

Flip Flappers

I don’t know how you can read this show as anything but lesbian sexual awakening, especially given the Class S Yuri Hell episode

Wandering Son (Hourou Musuko)

pls pay attention to the T friends

Aoi Hana (Sweet Blue Flowers)

Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju

Kikuhiko is def not cishet and i will fite u if u insist otherwise. Half the show’s choices make no sense without that lens

Yuri!!! on Ice

fite me

LGBT-THEMED; LIMITED REP: anime that addresses gender or sexuality as a secondary focus, though perhaps lacking explicit representation (e.g. LGBT narratives in the secondary cast).

The Woman Called Fujiko Mine (from the director of Yuri!!! on Ice)

One of the supporting characters is a gay man struggling w/ masculinity

Gay schoolgirl episode all about female sexual repression

did i mention the titty is good

Princess Jellyfish

Prominent focus on gender presentation

Kuranosuke can be read as a closeted trans woman

Paradise Kiss

Heroine’s love interest is bisexual

Trans woman in the supporting cast; trans identity plays a major role in her story

Ouran High School Host Club

Discusses gender + gender presentation, though protagonist isn’t explicitly stated to be nonbinary

Protagonist’s parents implied to be genderqueer; father definitely bi

Plenty of gay subtext among the male cast

Scum’s Wish

Strong focus on female sexuality; main character is bisexual

Central cast also includes a lesbian

Simoun

Discusses gender as more of an abstraction? Takes place in a world where everyone is born female to later choose a permanent gender. It does less to directly address gender than you’d expect, though, which is why I’m sticking it here

From the New World (Shin Sekai Yori)

Future dystopia where societal norms practically mandate bisexuality. Honestly, I dunno where to put this; the story’s more concerned with sexuality in general than with LGBT identity

Devilman Crybaby

Classic characters reinterpreted through a queer lens; important theme of coming to terms with one’s own sexuality and identity. Ryo is the definition of disaster gay

LGBT REP: anime w/ positive depictions of LGBT characters, though not necessarily concerned w/ addressing queerness directly.

Samurai Flamenco

Four words: gay naked gunpoint proposal. the show makes about that much sense but it’s a lotta fun

i don’t care what the director said

bisexual girl in a poly relationship

No. 6

boys kissing tho???

Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid

pls ignore the manga and its magic dick nonsense

Haruchika

One of the two leads is a gay boy. He explicitly says so in the first episode. Avoid the live-action movie like the plague.

I should probably list Kase-san and Bloom Into You here

Mikagura School Suite

The heroine is REALLY THIRSTY for all the cute girls

Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo

Beyond the obvious homoerotic overtones of Albert/the Count, there’s Franz’s gay crush

Sympathetic trans girl character in the secondary cast

Michiko and Hatchin (from the director of Yuri!!! on Ice!!!)

Girls are good ok

Atsuko is gay

Macross Delta

two girls in the supporting cast do a hell of a lotta cuddling on screen

some versions of Sailor Moon

namely the ‘90s anime

Sailor Moon Crystal and the manga do address gender in… questionable ways

Tokyo Godfathers

Trans woman in the main cast

Tiger and Bunny

Reasonably respectful portrayal of a gay man once it gets going

Central relationship between two men could be read as romantic

Genshiken

Whispered Words (Sasameki Koto)

Psycho-Pass

One of the officers is a lesbian. She gets a focus episode

Monogatari series

Really just limited to Kanbaru, but she’s the most accurate depiction of the constantly horny dank meme problematic gay (e.g. me) i’ve ever seen, ironic propositioning of her straight dude friend and all. The rest of the franchise is obnoxious though, so ymmv

Kill la Kill?

i don’t know how else you interpret one girl kissing another on the mouth

Attack on Titan

If you’ve been living under a rock and somehow haven’t heard about it Ymir and Christa are all but explicitly stated to be in love with each other

Kino’s Journey

Kino asks people to use non-gendered pronouns, apparently? I haven’t seen this yet.

Knights of Sidonia

Non-binary character in the main cast

The manga goes some iffy places with their character tho, be warned

Really though, I mostly like this show for the sentient pink penis alien

Gatchaman Crowds

Several gender non-conforming characters

Trans girl in the main cast

Cardcaptor Sakura?

Fuuka

One of the dudes is canonically gay, not that it makes much of an improvement to the show

A Centaur’s Life

there’s a moment where a lesbian objects to her PDA being considered more obscene than the straight equivalent, which is nice but pretty off-the-cuff

Rose of Versailles

Oscar’s debatably genderqueer, though the show goes some real questionable places towards the end

Gay ladies?

Hunter x Hunter

Trans girl in the supporting cast. Her story’s extremely minor in the grand scheme of things but it’s there and it’s good

Love and Lies

potato-kun gets a harem that includes his male best friend

Land of the Lustrous

non-gendered rock people searching for meaning in life

Bodacious Space Pirates

via @madscientist212: “two explicitly lesbian characters who are lovers, and one of the story arcs involves the crew helping one of them avoid being forced into an arranged marriage to a dude by her uncle”

Banana Fish

Extremely dated BL-flavored crime drama; unfortunately falls into the pitfalls of old-ass exploitation films: csa, sexual assault, etc. It’s such a problematic fav tho

Kiss Him, Not Me

Reverse harem includes a lesbian

Double Decker! Doug & Kirill

heavy gay subtext between leads and secondary cast members; well-intentioned trans representation that’s... kinda clumsy, tbh

Zombie Land Saga

one of the zombie girls is a trans girl who dies from the shock of puberty. it’s p incidental to her character but the show’s real cute otherwise so go for it

Anima Yell

apparently one of the girls admits to having a crush on a female teacher. or something. idk this show looks hella boring why bother

THE SUBTEXT IS STRONK: not textually gay (some you could argue could fall under category #2 and vice versa; not the point of this post) but can be read that way, even though these shows aren’t super concerned w/ romance in general

Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Neon Genesis Evangelion?

Depending on the version, Shinji’s sexuality can be read a variety of ways. Manga Shinji is pretty clearly bi; TV anime Shinji you could debate.

Free, I guess

Love Live (Sunshine esp.) if I’m counting Free

Symphogear

Dear Brother (Oniisama e, otherwise known as BE STRONG)

Kids on the Slope (Sakamichi no Apollon)

Nominally they’re straight and pining for the same girl but BOY do Kaoru and Sentarou have a LOT of chemistry with each other, so much that it’s hard to read them otherwise

Marimite (Maria Watches Over Us)

Izetta: The Last Thing I Would Watch Even If I Had a Gun Pointed at My Head

Despite what you may have heard, this show is bad and 100% plays in bait territory. Also, obnoxious gun fetishism and way. too. much. goddamn. phallic imagery.

Tanaka-kun is Always Listless

Umamusume: Pretty Derby

Princess Principal

Spiritpact

I have complicated feelings about this goddamn trash fire of a show, but halfway through the second season it turns into a genuinely compelling gay pseudo-romance (?) about two boys navigating heteronormativity. also i guess the main couple exists, tho they spend a ridiculous amount of effort no-homoing

Amanchu

basically any sports anime ever tbh

Golden Kamuy

MADE FOR THE STRAIGHTS BUT STILL OK: the yuri, BL, etc. that’s clearly targeted at a heterosexual audience but respectful enough to be enjoyable for the people they’re about

Doukyuusei

This Boy Caught a Merman

This Boy is a Professional Wizard

Strawberry Panic

Love Stage??? I have some qualms about putting this here but of the trashy BL anime that exist this is probably the least offensive

Maria-Holic

TEXTUALLY GAY BUT BLUGHHHH: the yuri and BL that just sux

Sakura Trick

Junjou Romantica (how the hell does this thing have three seasons)

Sekaiichi Hatsukoi

Gakuen Heaven

Dramatical Murder (POTATO DOGGO)

Super Lovers UGH

idk Gravitation and all that other crappy BL I don’t have the patience to list

GIMME THE TRASH NOW: problematic as all hell but i sure ain’t complainin b/c i’m gay ass trash

Netsuzou Trap (NTR)

Riddle Story of Devil

Love to Lie Angle

if you ever wanted a generic ass harem comedy except with a potato girl instead of a potato guy, here’s that compressed into 3 minutes

Citrus

Corpse Party wwww

Gakuen Handsome FITE ME

NOT TOUCHING THIS HORNET’S NEST WITH A TEN FOOT POLE: pls,,,, save me from the Disk Horse

Sound! Euphonium

One of these days I might organize this a lil better. Maybe if/when Tumblr figures out how to make editing not a pain in the ass

#gay shit #long post
