I am already excited that he is already appearing next episode. Of the relationship of the main trio, I find it to be more of familial love. Yogi feel like a unreliable and weak willed big brother that is really good at taking care of the two youngsters. Gareki is the more independent one who has an attitude but is growing up. Nai is like a wishful little brother who and is as dependent on their relationship as Yogi. |

And I think a trio of brothers is the best way to describe them too. Lol such an odd bunch. |

My bad (since the question is from me), I thought Yaoi, Shounen-ai and BL are the same thing . Maybe BL is stronger in sexual department? Tbh, this kind of genre is not my favorite so I don't know the differences XP.

Speaking of that, I really like Nai and Gareki's relationship. They tend to juxtapose each other nicely, with Nai's innocence and naïveté acting as a foil to Gareki's more hardened view and methods. |

Yaoi is the more sexual term, while shounen-ai is the mild term. But both terms indicates the romantic love between boys. Though, this show is even milder than that. The relationship between the main trio is truly brotherly and familial. |

I never saw Ghost-07 so I can't compare but I didn't even see mild BL hints from the manga-ka. However I think the relationships are written in a way to appeal to female fans.
Also lets not ignore the fact that it is not a trio but a quartet and the 4th character is a girl.

I know it's hard to believe that it's not shounen-ai given the character designs and the overpopulated male characters, but shounen-ai is not present in 07-Ghost. It's easy, is it not, for you guys out there to perceive that if an anime/manga has plenty of bishounens and strong bonds between characters, then the anime/manga falls under yaoi/shounen-ai genre. I understand, but I would like to emphasize that it's not always the case.I think this misconception partly stems from yaoi/shounen-ai fandoms. Last edited by MUAHAHAHAHAHA; 2013-04-07 at 11:03. |

I think any m/m relationship (even if they don't like each other in the story but have some type of interaction) whatever it actually is, is going to create a fujoshi fandom. That's almost a given. And it doesn't even have to be aimed at female fandom. But at this point because of how these fandoms have come to be I think even some guys start imagining it is there when it's really not.

Shounen-ai =/= strong suggestive bromance. So unless actual romance is involved the likes of 07-Ghost & Karneval do not count. Hakkenden doesn't count either despite Genpachi's character, since it's being played as more of a running gag than anything serious. They're are all just big cockteases.

Anyway, my advice to those who are curious but not sure if there is any BL vibes, the best thing to do is to watch a couple of episodes first and then decide it for yourself. |

Well.....that was about as helpful as Id expected I thought they couldnt make the start to the manga anymore confusing, the anime succeeded XD Im in for the long run though, Ive loved this manga since it came out. And Kamiyan as Gareki is perfect

Wow... been reading the manga for a very very long time and now there's an anime! Yeah!
But yes, it may give off a shounen-ai feel at times but it's definitely not. Just like 07 Ghost and a few others. On the other hand, somehow I'm still a bit bothered by Tsukumo's golden hair. It should be more of a mix of platinum and gold.
