Yaoi pictures to start your weekend!

I liked this one. Even though I’m not a huge fan of Reno and Rude pairings. It looks so realistic!
This is more shonen ai, but I like it.
Enjoy your weekend!

A yaoi cafe!
“Although themed bars and role-playing cafes aren’t new in Japan, most are male-oriented. Visitors to such places can expect to be served by shy cute maids in frilly outfits, sexy dominatrixes, or – in some infamous places – waitresses wearing no underwear.
Given the popularity of Edelstein with young Japanese women, it appears that themed cafes aimed at females can also be a lucrative market. “

Manga Review: Walkin' Butterfly Volume 2 (non-yaoi)
The manga entitled Walkin’ Butterfly is the story of a young woman who has a the goal of becoming a model. In the second volume as Michiko pursues her goal, she faces some obstacles. To make matters worse, Michiko isn’t exactly model material. She’s clumsy and ungraceful, and very stubborn.
Throughout the entire story, Michiko is uncooperative. Ms. Tago a former model gives her assignments in order for her make into modeling, but Michiko doesn’t seem to take the jobs seriously. On the other hand, there are occasions where Michiko puts effort into learning how to walk in heels like a model. Mihara is another interesting character. He ends up in the hospital due to malnutrition, probably due to overworking himself.
I like how the manga deals with two characters who are experiencing a sense of failure. These are the things Mihara and Michiko have in common. The manga does contains lots of humor, especially with Michiko with her stubbornness and clumsiness. But with the humor the manga is sad in many ways, especially towards the end.
As for the artwork, was pretty good. I wasn’t disappointed with it. It seems Walkin’ Butterfly is in the genre of shojo manga, so if you’re a fan I would recommend this. On a scale I would give Walkin’ Butterfly a seven and a half.

Best homoerotic kissing scenes
The first is a scene from the series Queer As Folk between Brian and Justin. From season one, episode four.
Next is a scene from the yaoi anime Our Road of No Return. I’m not familiar with this particular anime, but I thought the kissing scene between the characters was sexy.
Another kissing scene that’s been surfacing, I’ve seen it on a few message boards and people have used the scene as an avatar.
This is a video complied from the movie Formula 17 which I’ve seen and enjoyed. There were a few kissing scenes I thought were lovely.
If you haven’t seen this movie, I really recommend it seeing it.
Finally from the anime Gravitation is another video complied of kissing scenes.
I hope you enjoy these videos.

Yaoi Manga Release for March
Ai no Kusabi: Destiny volume two is coming out. Riki finds himself in a bad situation, and he is still haunted by the humiliation and pleasure he received from Iason. This is one of those stories that many yaoi fans have been waiting for.
Sweet Admiration deals with a young man named Katsuya who always had feelings for Shio. But there’s a twist of a fate that happens in this story. Find out when it comes out!
Great Place High School seems to deal with all sorts of characters, from weirdos to narcissists.
The Color of Love is the story of a young man named Nao has feelings for his long time friend. However when he tells Nao he looks different, Nao overacts. Why?
This manga has a very strange title. Selfish Mr. Mermaid. Well, I think it’s strange, it’s the story of two characters named Kanan and a merman. So I suppose there is a reason for the title.
Finally, there is Don’t Blame Me volume one. University student Toshiaki is trying to make his life more exciting. He meets a group of students who seem incredibly odd, and Toshiaki’s life takes a turn.
