Twilight Out of Focus

85

Twilight Out of Focus is a Japanese BL anime series about a high school film club. The protagonist receives special abilities, allowing him to see affection levels or accept side quests for rewards.

Through dubbing and localization, these anime series become accessible to those who do not understand Japanese or prefer not to read captions, allowing a wider audience to appreciate the rich diversity of stories and characters that anime offers.

Gay characters in anime when they do appear are largely a lot easier to spot and identify than those in movies from Disney and the like, but there have nevertheless been some cases of ‘hidden’ queer characters through anime’s history.

The main character is a university student who frantically tries to avoid romance. However, he loses confidence when a new student arrives and dazzles everyone with his talent. And while the anime paints them as female for the most part, it’s safe to say Hange stands somewhere in the middle.

Nobody seems to care much about this titan researcher’s gender.

After an injury, the protagonist finds himself in a wheelchair and needs support with his daily needs. The main character has been struggling lately. His noisy music is disturbing the peace in the middle of the night. Most couples blur the line between friendship and love. The pair have made great sacrifices for one another at many times during the show and the manga, and – without going into spoilers too much – create a bond of blood and bone more literal than truly metaphorical.

Not only that, but the CLAMP anime and manga production team – famous for their work in meta and interlocked fantasy worlds – seem to be just as into shipping the two as the fans are, and have given everything but a direct acknowledgement of the two being a couple across many instances of the two getting closer than just friends.

They welcome him into their home, believing that his vampire identity is just a joke. After this point, he met and became both best friends and worst enemies with Akira Fudo – the protagonist of the series, also known as the titular Devilman.

But what does any of this have to do with Ryo being gay, and Devilman having a queer streak?

Despite their cozy chats, both feel awkward because of a failed love confession from the past. A part of him stays hopeful, wondering if his affection might be returned. The main character feels lost in life. Despite his shyness, he forms new friendships with a few guys on the basketball team. Yet, he reaches out to make sure the other guy won't hurt himself.

Ymir

Anime: Attack on Titan

One of AoT’s second and third seasons’ most interesting characters is Ymir, an inspiring warrior with a tragic past and more than a little crush on Christa, also known as Historia Reiss.

And these two characters were opposite reflections of each other. Shonen-ai, or Boys Love, is a subgenre of anime that delivers everything from implied feelings of love to sexual and romantic encounters between two male characters.

After drifting apart over the years, living together brings them closer together.
