The High School Life of a Fudanshi
腐男子高校生活
Synopsis
A closeted fudanshi navigates BL obsession, secrecy, and friendship while seeking fellow male BL fans.
Ryo Sakaguchi has a deep, dark secret: he's a fudanshi—a boy obsessed with BL. While he has trouble understanding how others don't find the same bliss he does from his unusual hobbies, that doesn't make it any easier for Ryo to buy his precious manga from the “girls” section of the store, or any simpler explaining the world of boys' love, shipping wars, and doujinshi circles to his best friend Nakamura. Will Ryo find other fanboys to share his hobby with, or is he doomed to sit alone on his throne of BL romance? (Source: Seven Seas Entertainment)
