Well, this is definitely interesting topic, so let's see what I can talk about this topic. As for traps VN, let's just say that obviously I treat it as BL VN even though the dateable characters (Or maybe I should call them as heroes) looking good like usual VNs heroines, although this should be the discussion for another days. That said, let me say that the trap VN that really sit in the middle of GL and BL is Trap Yuri Garden, if only because the MC himself also the trap (And yes I admit that I like the premise so much I treat it as VN of the Month for June 2024, so in a way this is my guilty pleasure). For the rest of the topic, let's just say that I find it interesting there are much more well received BL VNs compared to GL VNs, with two of particular examples are Slow Damage and Hashihime. It help that somehow Nitroplus see the interest to develop BL VN and thus give them the chance to woven their story writing, which tend to be well received for how twisted it is. Obviously, the people who want to see good story would play the VN no matter the genre, and thus it manage to attract the number of people (From what I see on VNDB). The same phenomenon can also be observed in otome VN, which is no coincidence that some otome VN has more interesting stories compared to the usual VN. I don't really know though on why the work aimed for female demographic has more intricate story, but it's quite interesting phenomenon to see. In the end, while I prefer to not play BL or otome, I understand some man would like to try that kind of game for several reasons. That's all for what I can write in regard of this topic.
