OCs from my webtoon Roofroom~ you can read for free on Webtoon and tapas :3

My suggestion is based on 1 Korean BL, Semantic Error, since its adaptations are varied and relatively easy to access.

Live action covers a part of the novel and is a relatively mild adaptation. Comic covers lot more than live action does but is not (yet) explicit. As for the animation, even though it doesn't cover much, it gives a flavor for the treatment common to BL, but usually missing from live action. (Sorry for the vague sounding wording, you will understand what I mean when you watch the animation.) Novel is very detailed and long. While its fan translation is incomplete, it offers a good enough understanding of what BL can offer and what one would (or won't) enjoy.

As a starting point, please try Semantic Error live action, comic, animation [fan-sub] and novel [fan-sub] in that order.

If you like the live action better, explore more series and movies, especially newer live action BL.

If you like the comic more than the others, try more Korean BL comics that are R15 rated.

If the animation (aeni) is what you liked the best, try

Namui BL Manhwa aka Someone Else's BL Cartoon

Hyperventilation

If you like the former better, check out Unbelievable Space Love.

If you didn’t like Someone Else's BL Cartoon animation, you can try

the comic (manhwa) of the same name it is adapted from.

the Japanese BL anime The Stranger by the Beach.

If you like Hyperventilation better, try Mignon (don’t miss the post-credit scene). You can also try R18 (R19) Korean BL comics.

If you like the novel as much as the adaptations or more, check out:

other BL novels. You can access official translation of select Korean BL novels at Publang and fan-translation links by logging into Novel Updates.

older live action BL from China and Japan, and Korean movies by Leesong Hee Il.

*SPOILER WARNING *

I don't hate it but I definitely don't love it. My only favorite character is the sassy AI and somehow boy who literally has zero lines. I also like the little spider dude cause he's kind of adorable in his little hoodie. Other than that and the mystery of the plot to keep me entertained and the semi good animation is good.

BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS STRAIGHT SHIT. Like the main characters pissed me off the entire time. Except for mai because I shared her sympathy for being pissed at the kids dumbass decisions and caring for their idiots butts. But the two main honchos can literally kick rocks like they could die and I would probably enjoy the show more. Let me explain my annoyance tho in detail.

First Haley this girl from the jump made me want to drop kick her. Like this is suppose to represent actual siblings. I don't care how much I love my sister I'm gonna tell her when something is dumb and slap her when she losing her marbles. This girl MURDERED AN ENTIRE VILLAGE?! Cause she was fucking bored and nosy. Like did she completely forget the entire reason they are hiding in the first place?! I mean I'll give the writers a pass because someone gotta be stupid to get the plot to roll. BUT NOT THIS STUPID?! In more than one spot she has almost gotten her brother killed by being just dumb. From banging a glass tube while surrounded by monsters to literally putting everyone in jeopardy by growing attached to boy beyond reason. I can't blame her tho I would've saved the kid and gotten attached too but like she like Sakura from Naruto just in convincing everyone.

Like did he come in clutch later yes he did revealing some big secrets. My thing is tho majority of the situations were her fault Or her brothers by sharing one braincell at a time. For example, when the sisters came for them instead of doing a convoy stand off or thinking of strategies she whined... THE.ENTIRE.TIME! Like girl you are the main one that wants this dude so bad at least be convincing cause everyone around you has lost sympathy for your crocodile tears. There were some parts where she was cool but majority I wanted to smack her.
