Delusional Boyfriend Book Club

Welcome to the Delusional Boyfriend Book Club — a romance-obsessed podcast and channel devoted to BL, manhwa, manga, anime, live-action dramas, and romance novels.

This is a judgment-free space where delusion is always the solution. New romance and BL episodes drop every Thursday. One Piece manga episodes — where we simp over shonen men — release every Tuesday. Follow along and subscribe to discover a new delusional boyfriend twice a week, every week.

This week on Delusional Boyfriend Book Club, we review 10 Things to Do Before I Turn 40 — the live action BL adaptation that left us asking: it’s cute… but where’s the chemistry?

Val says the manga brings the spice. The live action in comparison feels toned down. We unpack censorship, adaptation choices, and whether the on-screen chemistry lives up to the page.

This week we revisit Junjou Romantica — the iconic BL anime that shaped a generation of fujoshis. We unpack Misaki and Akihiko’s controversial dynamic, the power imbalance discourse, early-2000s BL tropes, and whether this series feels like nostalgic comfort… or a red-flag time capsule.

Did this story define the genre — and does it hit differently now?

This week on Delusional Boyfriend Book Club, I'm joined by the Buff Fujo as we dive into Painter of the Night — the dark romance BL manhwa that continues to divide readers and absolutely wreck our moral compasses. We unpack Seungho as a character, the power dynamics at play, why this story is so compelling despite (or because of) its discomfort, and whether simping for him is a bad decision or an inevitable one.
