About

BLupdates is a site dedicated to bringing you news of BL manga from English publishers. Licenses, news, releases and all that fun stuff. (́◉◞౪◟◉‵)
How title updates are organised:
Publisher:
English title (Romanized and original title; if different from English title) volume # (if none, it’s a oneshot) by Mangaka (First name, last name)
and/or ![]()
How often this site gets updated:
New licenses, news and releases announced ASAP.
DMG titles will be rounded-up weekly.
I’m a fairly busy person and I do this for free, so please understand that I might be late with news.

I am grateful to you for making this blog for BL fans like me *A* And wow, you live in NZ! I live in Australia so I’m happy meeting a blogger who also lives at the bottom of the world XD I hope you don’t mind but I added this blog to my blogroll :>
Thank you! I’m glad this site is useful to you! and it’s always nice to meet someone else from the bottom of nowhere~
You’re not getting a whole lot of comment love but this is a fabulous resource! Spread it around & keep up the good work! ^^
May I link to you site on my LJ? Just your home title page?
Thank you! I’ll do my best to keep it fabulous~
Sure, feel free to link! I appreciate you spreading the word ♥
Admittedly, not exactly a big fan of BL, but it’s great you guys are promoting legal alternatives to obtaining it (and other manga of interest xD ). Shall add you to my reader and go from there :)
Thank you! Maybe you’d find something that’ll catch your eye here haha. There’s a handful of licensed titles I’d rec to anyone, regardless of BL fan or not -anything by est em, Yumeka Sumomo, Yamashita Tomoko for starters.
Hmm, shall keep those artists in mind then :)
They’re pretty versatile artists -they all write other genres too :)
If you sign up for a Netcomics account, you can read the first chapter for free. They have Black Winged Love and Dining Bar Akira by Yamashita Tomoko, and Age Called Blue by est em. JManga has titles from both of them too, BL and non-BL.
