Yaoi Hands refers to a long-running joke within the anime and manga community regarding the disproportionately large and often anatomically incorrect hands found in Boy's Love (BL) or Yaoi manga, particularly from the late 90s and early 2000s. The trend became a viral sensation as fans began noticing that characters often featured fingers longer than their heads or palms larger than their torsos. While originally an artistic choice intended to convey elegance or masculinity, it transitioned into a beloved internet trope used to mock exaggerated art styles or bizarre physical proportions in media. Today, the meme is frequently used to highlight anything oversized or to poke fun at the nostalgic, sometimes awkward evolution of manga illustration.
