| I notice a lot of people are reading / watching junjou romantica more often than Sekaiichi Hatsukoi ... Is there a reason why ? |
| More, because it's more well known I suppose. It came before Sekaiichi, after all. I prefer SH over JR any day. But they're both pretty mediocre. |
| I think it's because scanlations come out faster for Junjou. I actually prefer Sekaiichi Hatsukoi. |
 |
| What mayukachan said makes sense. Since JR came before SH, it it going to be more well-known. For me, I watched SH before JR (backwards I know) and when I think about, I enjoyed SH slightly more than JR. I think that SH had a better story line. SH was my first BL series by the way. |

| This is new, I thought most people preferred Sekaiichi over JR. As I do. If that's the case, then it's maybe due to nostalgia reasons. ^I watched SH first as well, and it was my first BL too. |

SH was my first BL series by the way. Same. I watched it before JR (and it was my first BL). After watching SH and then jumping to JR was like a quality loss. It was more rapey in every way as well as the art being more...yaoi-porportional LOL |

| I feel like this is a high school reunion or something, I'm currently watching Sekaiichi Hatsukoi and it is my first BL. Will definitely check out Junjou at some point too. |
 |
| Never heard of either of them, but then judging by the posts in this thread that is not surprising since it's a genre I don't watch. |

parfaited said: Idk but they really should prefer Love Stage over these, at least the art is nicer. Fully agreed. Plus Love Stage actually has a mutual relationship, not just seme raping uke. |
| I feel the same about both of them. But as stated, Junjou is more well known and it came out before Sekaiichi. |

The artist improved a lot for Sekaiichi's faces. :-( I really like SH (only the main story, really) but I just cannot bring myself to pick up JR because of the art. I can't stand it LOL. Also: mayukachan said: It was more rapey in every way But OP: I also feel that JR is more popular. |

While I liked the anime versions, these shows are really generic and boring compared to some of the more interesting BL manga that is available to read (and they have nicer art styles). |

| junjou comes out more often and it's way funnier, i guess. also, it kinda stresses you out that takano gets annoying towards onodera and onodera takes too long for his feelings to come clean, so yeah, it gets annoying easily. |
