🥞 [PDF] ODDsu - handsome bottoms and unconventional tops

A BL Rec List for yaoi lovers.
If you like webtoons, manly bottoms and pretty tops, this is for you!

In this paper, I coin the term "ODD수" which is a play on words mixing the English "Odd" (for "unusual, deviating from ordinary") and Korean "수 (su)" (bottom or "plural suffix S") to designate the deeply beloved yet still niche manlier bottoms in the BL comic genre.

This personal zine is a list with entirely original written summaries, tag lists and commentaries related to digital comics exploring the various charms of the Handsome bottom and Unconventional top trope.
In this zine, I talk a lot about less popular BL dynamics, my relation to it, vocabulary related to the genre and specific comics I've read and love that I recommend you read as well because they offer a lot to those who like these dynamics. I provide spoiler-free summaries, TopxBottom visual references, as well as commentaries including spoilers and special mention titles that play with some aspects of the trope. Each suggestion comes with easy to scan QR codes to their official translation in both FR & ENG on their official reading service.

The zine is in both French in English, some parts only in French, some only in English. You are free to machine translate the text but please do not feed it to AI translators.

This list is non-exhaustive and only contains hand-picked titles I wanted to share at the moment
