I should've figured they'd get to yaoi eventually.

Of course, just as predicted, especially due to how well all pure yaoi in animated form seems to be received lately. Expect for more of these for seasons to come, especially when there's thousands to hundred thousands of yaoi manga out there.

As someone is completely out of the loop with Yaoi, why do people in these comments seem to be upset? Is the series bad? And/Or the studio?

Had to do a double-take because I first read that was "Shueisha," LoL. Is that English title official? Because if it is, it's not very accurate... But I guess Japanese-made English titles are often a bit off. |

...Idk if other people are upset just because its a yaoi or because they are disappointed. I am in the later camp. Off model faces in the trailer looks REALLY bad for the production. This is likely going to be a train wreck, but I'll give it a chance anyways because animated yaoi (if they'll even got hat far) is super rare. |

Its a 5 minute hentai short, so I wouldn't expect too much. The men in the comments that are threatened by a shitty 5 minutes BL short of a mid 20s college student dating a single father are the real entertainment. |

And the trend of ANN's translators not being able to correctly translate titles continues... I mean I apologize if this is the official English title, but if that's the case color me very, very surprised - I'd assume that no native Japanese speaker would ever parse "datte" here as "you're". Like, it just so obviously means "Papa Needs Some Lovin' Too" or well, something along those lines (a native English speaker would probably find something snappier) I'm actually surprised that someone managed to misunderstand it.

I'm happy to see more yaoi manga getting animated. That said, based on the promo, my immediate thought was...
I'm sure this will be just full of consent and beautifully animated. [/sarcasm]

I could not have stated this better. I'd love for there to be a lot more great yaoi Anime. It's just, they apply the wrong formula or something. It's one time when you find yourself silently screaming "just follow the manga!" That being said, Lots of great manga. Love or Hate Sign Wolf In The House Blood Bank Canis Finder Moon Trick THE TYRANT FALLS IN LOVE!! (squirt) Something for everyone. I'm finding that the shorter the name, the more I like it. It would be nice if some of the better BL would get made into Anime, but we'll just keep seeing what we've been seeing. Tenuous close approaches because the money men get involved, and start talking about formulas for maximizing viewership that simply don't apply. Additional: And it's frustrating. Because we've seen them nail Yuri. |

Same. “Honto Yajuu” consistently places in the top ten “Manga You Most Want to See Made Into an Anime” over on The Big Japanese anime news sites and even has drama CDs but hasn’t gotten picked up yet. That seems the likeliest to really make a splash given its got episodic chapters and so could easily make a short series, heavy on comedy, and sex scenes that could easily fade to black without affecting the story or characterization at all. |

You put a song in my head. A really great one I had forgotten for decades. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COV1PEmuB_Q Note: It's a song about a guy figuring out he wants other things. But, because it's a totally honest emotional explosion from the lead singer figuring out he's bisexual, it's timeless. And it's a better song than "lola, L O L A Cola". And yanno, have yet another much better song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzSsIlGgyOQ Body Parts Are Nice. It doesn't have to be about some defined level of sexuality. You can just logically love anyone and want to please them. It doesn't have to be so complicated. JLC got that. |

It looks bad though.
If I really need to see them move, I can just watch live-action stuff and make up a story for them in my head that would be loads better than this. Most BL manga are really no different from het romance stories, either. Anything where you can point out which character is the seme and which character is the uke, is not alright. (... most of my favorite pairings are the "prince x knight" variety where most people would say the prince is the uke, but they're way more complex than that. They're also never pairings, but OT4+). What the world needs is something with an elaborate, complex, three-dimensional fantasy plot, that also happens to have sexually explicit BL. Like, Code Geass, but with sexually explicit BL. There's no reason for this world and this species to exist if we can't have that. |

They're parsing "datte" as "but", not you're. Because of the different ways that English and Japanese function, it can be hard to translate things without context. Since the title's speaker isn't clear - is he the Papa, talking about himself in third person, the person who wants to do it with Papa, or a third person - then the translator has to guess. I agree the translation is clunky but it's otherwise perfectly valid. |
