BL Anime 2024: 6 Essential Recommendations
The world of BL anime reached its new heights in 2024, offering an extraordinary mix of heartfelt romance, mature storytelling, and groundbreaking representation. As fans eagerly consume each new release, certain titles have risen above the rest, delivering unforgettable experiences that push the genre forward. Here’s our in-depth look at the six most remarkable BL anime 2024 that deserve your attention.
“I Found Love at 7-11” Series Review
This series actually has a number of different headings, but I liked this one the most. You have to search to find this gem as it is not ‘officially’ translated into English, so I am thankful for the individual who did so. Otherwise, I would never have been able to watch this. I became intrigued by the title, and it honestly did not disappoint me. It is a slice-of-life narrative with surprisingly good acting and fairly good story lines that are really cutting edge. This is an obviously low budget series, but these actors put their heart and soul into this creation. It took a rather mundane story and turned into a feel-good series. It was like wrapping yourself in a warm blanket on a cold night kind of feeling.
“Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist” First Impressions (Ep.1 & 2)
After The drama of The Heart Killers (เขาจ้างให้ผมจีบนักฆ่า) and the supernatural sex appeal of My Golden Blood (เลือดนายลมหายใจฉัน) I am glad to see GMMTV returning to their lighthearted roots with their newest series Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist. The Series stars Mark Pakin (ภาคิน คุณาอนุวิทย์) and Ohm Thipakorn (ฐิภากร ฐิตะฐาน) and is absolutely adorable.

“Ossan’s Love Thailand” Series Review (Ep.1 to 12)
The saying that ‘imitation is the sincerest form of flattery’ is not always true. This series proved that. I shall come right out and say it. This is one of the worst BLs I have ever seen and one of the worst supposed remakes I have ever seen as well. To put it bluntly, this version was fatuous. Everything about it is. The production. The acting. The story. The plot. Hardly any of it even resembles the originality of the Japanese version. That had humanity. It had heart. Most importantly, it had authenticity sprinkled with humor, grace, and tons of human emotions. I can categorically tell you that the original Japanese version of Ossan’s Love was a masterpiece. This is simply a farce. Before you start clutching your pearls and calling me names, let me explain my reasons.

BL Week in Review
I don’t remember the last time that both Mondays and Tuesdays have been devoid of BL, but after this week, that is the case. April feels a bit slow in the BL world. Right now, I’m only watching 9 series, but maybe that’s alright. I plan on writing more. I am publishing an interactive BL on Wattpad and Archive of Our Own. New chapters should come out regularly. Also, I have a BL novel in the works.
