Description Finally! After working on this for like two months, I finally finished it!

Ok, there is a total of ten (10) pages of this, all drawn in chibi, except for two panels. You'll see afterwards. In any case, this little comic is to explain the difference between Shounen-ai and Yaoi, since a lot of people mix these two up a lot. I've done a lot of research before doing this so I have full confidence in what I say here.

Enjoy!

I don't know where you found infos like "shounen ai comes from the word bishounen" or "shota is a subgenre of yaoi", but they're totally false. :/ Seriously.

Shota has nothing to do with yaoi or bara, it's a completely different genre and it contains heterosexual OR homosexual stuff involving prepubescent boys.

Shounen ai does definitely not come from bishounen! Shounen ai means literally "boys love".:/

Look at the dates... the info here is from 2006. I got them from several manga/anime sources of the time, both books as well as internet. It would be natural if things changed over the years, as the concept of manga and anime changed as well.
On a sidenote, shotacon involves a younger usually childlike character and an older one. It could be qualified as paedophilia.

And yes, shounen-ai does come from bishounen as bishounen means "beautiful boy". Or have you ever seen ugly ass dudes making out in mangas... I surely haven't.

even in 2006 the shota genre was the same. It contained young boys/children but they could have sax with a woman, a loli, another shota or a men. I still don't see the relationship with yaoi.


Lolwhat? So hentai comes from beautiful chicks just because it contains chicks? No, sorry but study japanese a bit before saying such things. Shounen ai does not come from bishounen. Just prove it, give me a source. Nowhere on the internet it says so.

I'm questioning whether you read the whole thing I wrote or just part of it... I said I got my sources from books about the anime cult. But like I said, have it your way, I don't give a fuck, I got better things to do than argue over a japanese genre that involves guys making out.

I did, and that's not a valid source. I could say anything and then say "I read it on a book" and that wouldn't make it valid. ^^"

Lol, it's funny how you say you've got better things to do than argue over a "japanese genre that involves guys making out" when you spent time researching (or at least that's what you say) and drawing a comic to explain what that genre is. Oh well. Enjoy your books, then.

Oh so it's only valid when the source is from the internet instead of books? Explains a lot of things...

Yeah... 6 years ago... when I had more time to do shit...

No, it's only valid when the source is given. "Some books" are not a source. Titles or didn't happen.

Whatever. I'm tired to argue with you. Kthxbye

They're game magazines that I highly doubt exist in your country, they had a special article about manga/anime, though I doubt you'll believe me anyways, so what the hell...

You're not arguing, you're being a dumbass...
