There’s still some angst, of course, but from the ones I’ve read, the sex tends to be more on the fun (or, at least, the inconsequential) side.īara manga is also becoming popular among fujoshi who would like to see some guys with more meat on their bones than your typical willowy teenagers that populate most yaoi aimed at them. There are now bara visual novels, bara illustration collections, and other bara media. But no bara anime.īara is still very niche in Japan. There are no magazines dedicated to it (when it is published it’s in general gay magazines like ADONIS), and most are published as doujinshi.
Most sales are digital, and the content is HEAVILY pirated.
