Hello, please recommend me some novels that barely has any romance (if possible the MC didn't end up with any girls) that has many fujoshi-baiting moments. Or basically, novels that have bromance and/or character casts that made up mostly by males. The ones I have read (these ones have prominent baiting moments) Herscherik Resurrection of Duke Werstein Elqueeness The S-Classes That I Raised Trash of the Count’s Family How to Live as the Enemy Prince Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint The Novel's Extra - This one doesn't really count tho because while the bromance between Kim Suho and Kim Hajin is great, it's not many and I had to wade through a lot of harem moments. Most of them are korean novels and they did great with the queerbaiting, honestly. Any novels with character casts that are mostly males is also great. CN, KR, JP are all okay. Open ending is okay too. Thanks in advance.
Dominion’s End (or any Yu Wo novel tbh) Paladin of the End The Case Files of Jeweler Richard Chen Yue Zhi Yao The Yu Brothers’ Case Book
Basically all of the Taiwanese novels being translated right now LOL. It's one of my favourite genres as well~ As stated above, the author Yu Wo uses that type of baiting non-romance. Here are just a few, although you can search more up later (they're almost all being translated on the same site): Legend of Sun Knight* No Hero Dominion’s End +1 Illusions, Lies, Truth GOD Kill no More* A few other Taiwanese novels that are similar, and most of them are by other well-known authors like Yu Wo: The Yu Brothers’ Case Book* +1 / Case Book Chen Yue Zhi Yao +1 Unique Legend Residence of Monsters I starred the ones that have completed translations and italicized the ones that the author is still writing. I also plan on translating another one that is from the same author as one of the series listed above Just a matter of how much more translating I can squeeze in... >.<
I've read some of those but there are ones that I haven't so Imma check it!!! Thanks~ Hohoho bless you dear, I'm gonna dive into this comprehensive rec now, thank youu
A Mild Noble's Vacation Suggestion This is not bl, just fujoshi filled Bromance. But the author has written extra stories of this, filled with bl smut. This is a manga. The novel is not translated yet. So if you want to read the smut, you only have raws.
Only in the novel so far. Maybe in the future the manga would release a special issue, but I'm only guessing, since the manga is under general audience.
The kings avatar. I guess most team sport story have queerbaiting. Even if it doesn't it has enough character development for male character for fans to imagine stuff. The genre is pretty rare in novels, but there's quite a lot in manga.
yeah, smut would probably exist only on official doujin, but thanks for the info! it's quite rare in novels, but most sport-themed anime or manga almost always have queerbaiting moments since they are all male-centric casts. The novels I've read that has a fandom big enough are mainly because the MC doesn't get romantically involved with any female casts and there are many supporting male casts. I'll check the king's avatar now, thanks~
Hehe, you’re welcome~ Here's a bit more information: Of the ones I've listed, LSK, Dominion's End, Chen Yue Zhi Yao (Key of Sunken Moon), and Unique Legend are some of the most popular fantasy light novels in Taiwan, and are more or less the works that the 'top three' authors of the genre are most well-known for. I also forgot to mention that YBCB is by the same author as UL. I think if I had to personally list my top five novels from the ones I posted, it would be a close competition with the following results: LSK NH KSM YBCB UL (My preference is probably evident by the fact that I've helped translate 3 out of 5 of these...lmao). In addition, I would say that the most "baiting" ones when it comes to quotes and interactions would be RoM and KSM.
Oh my.... seriously, thank you so much, you've made it all easier (and rise my curiousity now) so as you suggested, I'd probably check them first. But again, seriously, your comments are awesome and I'm gonna go now to start reading!
You're my man /auto watch this, let's be friend! laughs We need more of bromance!!! I heard dao mu biji has bromance uwu I have huge list of my fav COUGH: but it is manga: https://www.anime-planet.com/users/Raebit/lists/i-see-bromance-going-on-here-cough-188679
