I love the casual affection between Eiji and Ash! There's some hate in the comments but let me remind everyone that no one, and i do mean no one, would bat an eye if Eiji was a girl.

It has been clear as day from the start that they are interested in each other (not necesserely sexually but definitely romantically). They show such genuine love for each other and I honestly dont get why people need to trash it and call it slurs like "yaoi" when it's just a love story between two boys.

SAY IT LOUDER. People will always find wa way to complain smh

If Eiji was a girl this would feel like cowboy bebop.

I don't get why people are hating on Ash and Eiji's relationship. They just like each other.. what's the big deal? Not liking BL is one thing, but hating and criticizing their relationship is just homophobic. If you are not comfortable with it.. just move on. Stop spreading hate.

The end was really a badass move I can't with this boy 😤🤘🏽 The Ash-Eiji moment was just so heartwarming, yet I still can't help but to feel bad for Ash, he's been through a lot, my heart goes to him. I will always be thankful for Eiji for being there when Ash needed someone to be on his side.

The amount of hating comments just because it's "gay" is disputable. This series is not even labelled BL, not to mention yaoi in the first place, yet someone doesn't seem to care to do some research before spitting out hatred. Eiji is Ash's peace and he cares about him as a friend, soulmate and beloved one. Their relationship is enthralling, so to say they're being support to each other while overcoming hard times and that is the main focus of the anime.

And Cross Ange wasn't labelled ecchi, yet the protagonist spent half the anime naked.

no matter what your opinions are on the whole ash x eiii thing, can we all just agree that the story for this is amazing

Gosh Eji is really the type of guy who can comforts people around him ,gotta love him for that, his eyes, his face, his shoulders and literally everything.
And i have never seen or read any yaoi related stuff, but this isn't yaoi either just a cute romantically stuff, so chillax. But u can watch for the plot which is amazing.

He planned all of it and he's 17
Not to mention, he's a good fighter with marksmens skills

Yep ash eiji is your fcking weakness what max said is no cap

I feel like every time golzine captures ash, he returns the damage two fold,
He looked freaking badass in the end reminds me of emiya kiritsuga from fate zero

9/10 But who was that guy at the end tho that got stabbed by ash??

He was in Arthurs gang

eh what happened there at the end? :o

When the guy saw Ash's face, he was about to follow him, but the 2 of Ash's boys who was pretending to be wasted bumped him, and secretly stab him while walking out of the train.

damn you old man

Sweet revenge coming up, served on the rocks!

That moment of vunerability when Ash is around just Eiji, it's sweet. Probably the only person he trusted that can open up to, especially since Shorter died. So much happened must be going through it all.

This 17 years old can do all sort of things. The power of an anime character haha kidding aside, all out for such plots. Love it!

that stab was smooth~

There's no need to over thinking about their relationship me personally Im uncomfortable that why I fast forward when there's a slow scene between ash and eiji, but the anime it self is really good, so my advice if you feel cringe or uncomfortable just fast forward it like I do

To be honest i am here for this but the context is so good too

Damn man, are you my clone?

Cause I did the exact same thing lol.

Its not yaoi anime
Ash just love Eji because eji was the only one who helped ash without borrowing anything in return

I think girls are into this yaoi thing because to me it feels sobad

It's not yaoi bcs it's not sexual. It's bl. Love between two boys. Nothing more or nothing less and there's nothing to make you feel bad about it unless you're a homophobe

You’re throwing pretty heavy words there, disliking the view of love between two men does not make you homophobic. You can be uncomfortable without hating or disliking the group in itself.

... you literally just defined homophobia.

Exactly, since homophobia is prejudice or dislike of the gay community, it is not homophobic to be uncomfortable whilst seeing two gay men romancing each other. That’s just being heterosexual.

being uncomfortable whilst seeing two gay men romancing around each other is kinda homophobic to me ngl. Also if im not uncomfortable around them, does that mean im not str8? loving the same gender is comepletly normal and we can love who we want to.

i love how u said that :)

Even if we're heterosexual ,we're watching and we don't feel disgusted.you're feeling uncomfortable just bcoz you don't like two boys being shipped and that's what the definition of homophobia is..

Bro, think about what you just wrote. If you’re uncomfortable watching your parents romancing each other does that make you heterophobe? Like jesus christ, you guys are just trying to find homophobia everywhere, are you going to call me a racist if I want to make my character white in a video game? Too much Twitter makes people delusional.

Bl=Yaoi.

Correct me if I am wrong.

But that aside, I believe what they two share is completely is pretty normal upto this point.

Its not Yaoi, its not even BL guys!!! Has any of u read the manga???? its not f.ing gay

How is it not gay ?? Sure, you can argue about Ash and Eiji since it wasn't really confirmed ( not counting garden of light ) but half the guys in this show are gay

Wish it had better animation.

That ending though....

Yo Ash was trying really hard to seduce eiji lol

There's a chance that people who don't really understand Ash and Eiji's relationship never experienced having a closest friend in the deepest sense.

ASH IS SO COOL OMGF IM FANGIRLING

He is so fine with glasses 😍

that ending scene was cool asf

Damn Ash is smart

8:20 why is he in the wall,,,

This is the hardest anime ever to binge watch, it's so nerve wracking, I can only watch one episode per day or even two days, then I need to take break to recover.
The ending got spoiled for me, and this makes watching it even harder.

These nice, chill moments don't make me fell happy at all. seeing them close and happy like that while knowing that shit is gonna go down soon, just adds to the suffering.
I watch anime to be happy, the fu*k am I doing to myself ..

Made in abyss.
Akame ga kill.

That ending ⊙﹏⊙

8:20 yo thats racist😂
