Is there a Japanese equivalent word/term for either of these genres?
romance
rom comEdit:
I found these referring to movies:恋愛 (ren’ai) - love, romance
ラブコメ (rabukome) - romantic comedy

vanilla? I suppose?
Using classic genre labels, would it not just be romance? Yaoi and yuri are special labels specifically because they’re “out of the norm”
Hentai?
this implies sexual (which yaoi and yuri usually not necesarily imply), and doesn’t imply heterosexual
Yaoi and yuri only refer to sexual, shōnen ai and shojō ai are what you’re looking for
