12 Boys Love Games to Play this Yaoi Day – 2025 Edition

Fujin Fam, we made it to another Yaoi Day! Yes, today is the day all the fujin take to the streets and proclaim their love of boys love (I kid, we do that EVERYDAY)!

For the newbies, August 1st is celebrated as Yaoi Day because when you write “801“ in Japanese, it can be read as “yaoi”. The 8 can be read as “ya” (や) in the Japanese number “8”, when read as ‘yattsu’ (八つ). The 0 can be read as the western letter “O.” And the 1 can be read as “I” (い). Together that makes Y-A-O-I!!

I have been a proud fujoshi, since I first snuck and watched Gravitation on my parent’s TV all those many moons ago. And that love has only grown more and more over the years! Since, I cover games here on Blerdy Otome, I wanted to continue the tradition of spotlighting boys love games on this most sacred of days! SO, here is a list of games that you should definitely check out this Yaoi Day or anytime this year!
