Episode 37: Changing BL Opinions

The 8OH1 Podcast

This episode of the 8OH1 podcast is sponsored by Irodori Sakura.

Seasons change, and fujoshi too! We may be seasoned fujoshi, but as BL itself has changed so have our once long-held beliefs. Is childhood friends to lovers still the peak of romance? Is 2D always better than 3D? Are these characters getting younger, or are we just getting older? BL Garden discusses what they used to love but now hate, what they used to hate but now love, and things that will never change.
