My Beautiful Man

美しい彼 シーズン1 ‧ Drama ‧ 2021
Both are MBS TV series and as manga reader I find Kaneda and Hira being similar in a way lol but the vibe is very different with Sepakoi being pure romcom while utsukare is more of bittersweet coming of age.

Both dramas portray the Tsundere vibe, stand offish but also shows affection to their lover. They also both have aspects of school and work.

Seventeen-year-old Hira, who is at the bottom of the class, tries to remain invisible at school, never wanting to open his mouth and expose his stuttering speech to his classmates. He views the world through his camera lens, detached until one day, Kiyoi Sou walks through the classroom door. The impact is instantaneous.

Hira finds himself pulled into Kiyoi's gravity, following him everywhere and attending to his every need. Popularity comes easily to beautiful Kiyoi, who is always surrounded by his classmates. He uses his status to get what he wants, ordering around the boy who stares at him with his big eyes and seems to worship him like a god.

Hira contents himself to merely exist within Kiyoi's orbit, asking for nothing in return…

Both are short japanese dramas about a romance between two boys. The story starts when the characters are 17 and then later continues when theyre adults meeting again (his movie). Theres a sequel movie for both and funny enough the actors have similar haistyles.

Zhang Jing Yi is the FL in both. The chemistry is natural. The relationship had depth. However, BEITD does not have a satisfactory ending.

These both have beautiful posters, toxic queer love, and great and creative cinematography. Only on episode 1 so far, but I couldn't help but think of this while watching.

Japanese Latin dance champion Suzuki Shinya and Japanese standard dance champion Sugiki Shinya are both famous dancers. Although they are in different fields, their names differ by only one letter. Suzuki, who hates to lose, is irritated by being compared to the other dancer. One day, Sugiki suddenly invites Suzuki to "aim to be champion together in 10 Dances." 10 Dances is a competitive dance where dancers who have mastered both Latin and standard dance compete in a total of 10 dances.

Suzuki initially refuses Sugiki's proposal to teach each other and aim for the top because it seems too reckless. However, he is overwhelmed by Sugiki's provocative and competitive attitude and accepts in anger. The two are polar opposites in terms of personality and everything and they clash, but as they take lessons every day, they work hard together and gradually close the gap. Then, Suzuki gradually realizes that he is starting to be attracted to Sugiki.

In both of these dramas, one of the MLs discover a passion for photography that they decide to make a career, especially with the help of the other male lead who he enjoys photographing.

Not really any similarities but in MSCL, Minato is "hiding" his feelings and in Utsukushii Kare, they both hide the fact that they like each other for a pretty long time.
They're both really enjoyable and fun! (if you know how to enjoy a show)

Another bl where one lead seems to be bully and the other bullied. They don't seem to get along at first but in end in love at the end.

Our youth just makes me think of MBM since it takes place in high school, main characters are really polar opposites but they make a very beautiful couple, I also think that they are similar because of the cinematography and in MBM Kiyoi wasn't happy with his family and Hira wasn't living with his and its just the same in Our youth.
