"homo romantic anime" is called Boys Love or BL as some people can find the word "homo" to be offensive. I can't recommend you any as I don't watch it.

For the OP, Enzai is a really good BL anime, the BL game on the other-hand, still really good, but a lot more graphic. For the more hardcore yaoi fans.

This thread would be a good place to look.

I didn't realize the word is offensive. I know it is called BL, but I think the word is formal here, so I wrote it. Nothing else.

In English, "homo" is a slur, an insult. Not a word one uses in polite company. English speaking LGBT individuals could, and might, get offended. It sounds as in your language, it is allowed (and I actually know other languages where this is true as well), so just note that in English it is not, for future reference.

Technically, this could include yuri or shoujo ai as well. I am a huge fan of Aoi Hana.

Got it, sorry for my mistake.

I have to say that I am a bit homophobic, but BL mangas do attract me sometimes. I like to see manly guy protecting, feeling for a feminine, handsome guy. Obviously it is just a tactic of replacing a female character with a guys name and some male attributes. I would call this tactic a subtle psychological signal for homosexuality, but in fact the real homosexuality is quite different. This kind of manga gives a twisted sense of beauty, many people become attracted mainly because of this. I am still repulsed by realistic style of BL manga, manly guy on manly guy, which is not to my taste.
