Delusional Boyfriend Book Club

August '25 BL Anime of the Month: Classmates by Asumiko Nakamura

05 Aug 2025

Description

Welcome back to the Delusional Boyfriend Book Club!   For August’s BL Anime of the Month, Courtney and Val are switching gears with Classmates (Doukyuusei)—a quiet, heartfelt slice-of-life about two boys who find an unexpected connection during high school choir practice. When a shy honor student gets tutoring help from a free-spirit, their bond grows from casual classmates to something tender, honest, and deeply emotional. This coming-of-age story explores first love with soft animation, gentle pacing, and a soundtrack that feels like a love letter to adolescence.   Courtney and Val break down the film’s minimalism, how Classmates balances restraint and emotion, and why this slow-burn romance remains one of BL anime’s most beloved entries. If you’re into soft boys, poetic storytelling, and delicate feelings you never got to say out loud, this one’s for you.   New episodes drop every 5th, 15th, and 25th! Be sure to subscribe on YouTube or your favorite podcast app to stay updated with the book club.   #classmates #doukyuusei #blanime #fujoshi #slowburn #blromance #animepodcast #delusionalboyfriendbookclub
