Monochrome Factor 01 - P.S. This is BL.

Published by Taiyaki Category: Anime - Other


Ohhhhhhhh…

Flavor: Sour
Initial reaction: Is this yaoi?

Huh? Either they went overboard with the BL jokes or this is really yaoi, orz. I mean, I actually watched the first episode of that other show with ninjas, and that one also had a few of these kind of jokes, but in this one they were all over the place and there was even a gay kissing scene. I actually don’t mind yaoi, though… it’s just that everything came out so unexpected because nobody had mentioned anything about this show having that sort of content.

Anyway, aside from that, I don’t think there was anything else that managed to catch my attention. The action scenes were pretty average and the overall episode seemed pretty boring to me. From what I’ve seen so far, I wouldn’t even recommend it to yaoi fangirls, though it’s obvious that there are a lot of them who would actually watch any kind of crappy show as long as it has gay material on it.

Keep blogging? Probably not.

    I saw a lot of Loveless in this for some reason, haha.

    miya> That was mostly a joke, although it’s true that this first episode didn’t really manage to catch my interest.

    Actually, I own the manga and I found it to be a little bland too…the only thing that kept my interest was the fact that they threw some BL in there.
    Btw, Yaoi is more hardcore than shonen ai, so Monochrome Factor would fall in the cattegory of shonen-ai.
