(comment) An image cut from the JUNE-era short masterpiece "Vampire Fantasy" included in the November 1982 issue of JUNE. A young man captured by a vampire, wandering between madness and fantasy as his life blood is drained. Food and eros, and death. It's a rich cut soaked in gloomy aestheticism and splashes of blood (Kinj ). "Yaoi" was born in 1970 in the ancient city of Kanazawa. It was defined in a manga doujinshi that merged RAPPORI (rappori), the manga research circle "Lovely" organized by editor-in-charge Akiko Hatsu and Yasuko Sakata, and the manga circle "Rapponpon" to which Akiko Hatsu belonged. It plays an important role in BL history. Yasuko Sakata, a pioneer of doujinshi, published the first issue of the handwritten doujinshi "Lovely" in 1972 together with Yukiko Hani. At that time Yasuko Sakata was 18 and Akiko Kai (Yukiko Hanuki) was 16. Around the same time, I visited the Oizumi salon-where Hagio and Takemiya lived together with Yukiko Hanuki-for the first time. After that, in 1975, Akiko Kai (Akiko Hatsu) participated in the 'The Little Mermaid' in the Lovely special copy issue. 'Lovely' was a top-class original creative circle nationwide from the late 1970s. Among these, Yasuko Sakata's decadent BL "Amon and Asrael," a BL fan work based on the 1967 American film Proud and the Passion, was hugely popular and was later published commercially: its influence on both commercial and doujin circles is immeasurable. Also, beginning in 1980, she began working for JUNE alongside Akiko Hatsu and Yasuko Sakata. She can be said to be an indispensable author when discussing the prehistory of BL (Kinj ).
