BAD AI!
:korokke_nekobeam:
カタイ/ Katai means both strong/solid (as in a bond) and hard (as in erection). The "(meaningful)" (意味深) (i'm guessing the other one somehow translated it as enigmatic?) isn't describing the bond but pointing out the double meaning of his own words, so it's like adding a (get it???) after your own joke (Thank you Bakshi we all laughed!!)

Then when he's saying how just watching it makes him get an erection (ボッキ), he censors it twice (er*ction and *rection). Thank you Bakshi for my innocence was preserved. And in the first instance he's also using shimasu wa which is a feminine way of ending a sentence (Once again thank you Bakshi)

(but also, in all seriousness, thank you for the explanation - I find that kind of breakdown fascinating, it's (amazing? depressing?) how much nuance that gets lost in translation)

Right?? And that's not counting the niche pop culture references I probably miss all the time (and that's true for all media regardless of language but the barrier does make it much harder to pick up on stuff I guess!) But it's also always fun to reread and notice new stuff!

And yeah it's funny how nowadays, AI translation is able to pick up on certain nuances not stated in text but that means it'll also often invent nuance that doesn't exist lol

pop culture references
Speaking of, in this instance Bing managed to catch that 帰りま10 (kaerima-TEN) should be 'not going back home' (kaerimasen) and it had me look up - apparently 帰りま10 was the name of some variety show?

No preserving of your innocence, not in this thread!

Many online translators have NSFW censorship.
For sure, but basic Google and Bing (my staple diet) don't. As far as I've noticed.

I also use a Google LLM—and sometimes Google itself—but Bing in Spanish is absolute shit. I really like using the LLM because I can specify the characters' genders; Spanish is much harder to translate than English, thanks to all its damn grammatical rules t_t

Well, I'm currently diving into this new BL gacha game—damn, I've been laughing so much, especially with these two. I mean, the way one of them just says, "Let's stop being friends and start fucking instead"—hilarious!

Besides, I only have 2 SSRs, yet I can still hold my own against the bosses—though the game is definitely tougher to beat with just those 2. I also just unlocked the event; I don't usually play the beta versions of gacha BL games.

Honestly, I just want to fuck Asahi brother too, and these other two as well—I mean, why is everyone in the game so fuckable? It makes it hard for me to stop spending money $ lol

Well, if anyone wants to translate the images in case they don't know Spanish—go ahead, because I'm feeling too lazy to do it lol

BL games are pretty niche and I know a lot of people feel awkward posting about BL in a largely otome space, so I figured a dedicated thread for just BL games would help for people wanting to find information about or discuss anything about the genre, including lesser known games that are less likely to sustain their own dedicated threads. Connect with your fellow BL games enjoyers! Ask for recs, rant about games you're excited to play, talk about your fav MCs, discuss the most horrible bad endings, lament the woes of getting the things to run on Windows 11, anything goes!

List of Upcoming BL Games as of 1/23/2026

水都は薄明 (HolicWorks) - 1/30/2026, Japanese devs
PSYCHIC ECLIPSE-サイキックイクリプス- code:green (NEXT-B) - Release date unannounced, a sequel to the original Psychic Eclipse, Japanese devs
東京幻燈─Tokyo Phantasmagoria─ (Procyon) - Release date unannounced, Japanese devs
The Inn Between (Cats on a Lilypad Studios) - Release date unannounced, Western devs
艾尔蒂的晚宴 ALTY'S DINNER (ZEM泽狼) - Release date unannounced, Chinese devs
咒影 Curse of the Shadow (小青蛙妙妙制作组) - Q1 2026, Chinese devs
Once Upon a Throne of Thorns (ebihime) - 2026, Western devs
3 Lines of A Delta (kiviont) - 3/3/2026, Western devs (I think it's BL? it can be hard to tell)
Bifröst: Prelude to the Storm (eccentric studio) - Q4 2026 , Western devs
Double-Sided Aces (Kukui Studios) - Release date unannounced, Chinese devs
Tree's Love Crossing Above (Apes boom) - Release date unannounced, Chinese devs
Elton Manor: Requiem of the Cursed Roses (PlayMeow) - 2026, Chinese devs but with only JP voice acting
万圣节之眼Halloween Eye (环形电CIRCUIT) - Release date unannounced, Chinese devs
黑山羊BlackGoat (HUPIDAN) - Release date unannounced, Chinese devs
Deep in the Forest (Ertal Games) - Release date unannounced, Western devs

Categorization is Dicey:
Project II: Silent Valley (GoldenBlade) - Q1 2026, the MC is an apparently male-bodied NB person, you be the judge of whether you consider that BL. Chinese devs.

To get things rolling: I'm currently thinking about whether to build a list of games that lets you obtain endings or romances with male characters as a male MC, because I think that's within the BL enjoyers' interest zone. Would anyone be interested in this? If anyone has suggestions for new BL games that I don't know about, especially from Korean or Chinese side, I'd also love to know about them!
thankyou for the information!!
 
A new indie BLVN, A Personal Winter, has been out for a few days now! It's not tagged as such (yet?) but the developer describes it as BL in one of their tweets. It's also going to get English, Spanish and Chinese translations in the next two months! I'll check it out soon along with their other finished game (not bl).
