Get the Free size mug.Retro term once used in Japan to depics softcore romantic relationships between men, aimed for women's entertainment (& not for mockery either). Some people who have touble adjusting or reading Japanese or staying updated still call it Shounenai, but now it's called BL.
Go to Google.om, switch settings to Japanese language only, type in BL. You'll gets tons & tons of links. For you buffs who know katakana & cut-&-paste, try adding wods like gallery & illust for picture BL sites.

Get the shounenai mug.Eroica Yori Ai wo Komette is one of the few mangas that can be classified as both shounenai & BL because of how long it's been in publication. Starting in 1978 & still being written to this day.
When writer Aoike Yasuko took a long break in the 90s doing gawd knows what, she picked the story up again with a different art style. She actually managed to convert her art from retro to modern (sadly), & the fans still wait to see if Dorian will ever get Klaus, hoping to heck it doesn't end abruptly like her amazingly funny series; Ibu no Musukotachi.

Get the One-shot mug.A person who doesn't give a crap about politics, who doesn't vote, who doesn't watch news, & probably doesn't even know the president's name.
Despite not caring about the politics of their own country, antipolis may be very interested in many or one other country, others are totally self-absorbed (one man is his own nation), & many others simply just plain don't like being lied to & don't trust people known for lying.

Many antipolis are accused of being anarchists, but anarchists are way beyond antipoli; taking action agaisnt government. Some Antipoli 'claim' to be anarchists, but they're either confused or posers.
