When Justin Sevakis at Answer Man is asked: I confess that I really like bara manga because of its incredible art style, sexy situations (depending on the subject), and most certainly its appeal to gay male readers such as myself. A quick primer for the uninitiated Yaoi although the more commonly known term for traditional Japanese style anime/manga boy love comics was mostly created by girls for other girls and although that’s changed especially in recent years, Bara means that it’s made by men for men.
Yaoi/bara/bl art and artists have exploded in recent years.
