-Male Protagonist.
-Anime that shows strong bonds and lots of interactions between two or more male casts.
-Friendship, rivalry, brothership,non-romantic relationship.
-Basically, something that isn't tagged as BL, but still enjoyable for female audiences and fujoshi.
-Non sports anime.
Why non sports anime? because I have another stack specifically for sports anime, check it here:
