Quantcast

When Oranges Fall : I binge-watched it today, and it was such a feel-good and heartwarming BL.

I really liked the late '90s and early 2000s setting. The friendship was so precious. I loved how chaotic they were and really enjoyed their sense of humor. There were no major misunderstandings, no evil parents (which was a huge plus), and no huge traumas.

I loved the last episode. It was nice to see them as young adults who were still hanging out together.

I was equally invested in the two main couples. I almost want to say three couples, but the third one didn't have enough scenes for me to get fully attached to them, even though I liked them too.

Achi was my favorite character. I hope to see Ken and Paul as the main couple in a BL someday, but they're still so young, so they have plenty of time.

8.5/10

Knot ep 5 : Pretty good overall, but I'm not really impressed. Weirdly enough, I'm more interested in the second and third couples. I hope we'll see more of the third couple next week.


I will probably take a break of BL and het dramas tomorrow and just binge watch a dating show.

Random, but does anyone have BL tattoos? I have 5... I have two of the ducks from My Beautiful Man, a panel from the MBM Manga... a panel from The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese Manga... and Tenshi from One Room Angel...

I have tattoos but nothing referring to BL or K-pop. Mostly just decorative (stars, etc) but I do have a quote around my ankle from a singer I loved 20 years ago. (Yes, I’m old.) I would find it hard to choose a BL tattoo since I don’t have any one BL I love so much more than any other. (It doesn’t help that my spouse doesn’t like BLs and wouldn’t love a BL tattoo.) I might get something BL if it was a special word, quote, or symbol, but nothing comes to mind at the moment. (Right now I really need to get all of my tattoos retouched because they are 25-15 years old and have bled out a lot. The smallest ones look the worst over time.)

FYI, I have a white tattoo on my inner arm that says “this moment.” People go crazy over it because I’m so pale it’s barely noticeable, like a secret tattoo or something.

Art Girl, I have a tattoo on my inner wrist—just something decorative. I wanted a finger one as well but my spouse finds finger tattoos disturbing.

I didn't know you could get white tattoos. I think the idea is so cool.

I also have a tattoo on my inner wrist. It's the only tattoo I have. It's not right next to my hand because my sisters didn't want me to get one in the exact same spot as them, so we all have different tattoos in different places. But I did get it on the same arm as them. 😂

I started watching the vertical Painter of the Night on Lezhin Snack yesterday. It started out really good. It’s both a period drama and very spicy, plus red flag ML so I’m totally hooked already. I immediately ordered the first volume of the manwha as well. I don’t know if I’ll be patient enough with this one to watch it for free, but I hate supporting verticals financially because the prices are so high. Sometimes it’s worth a one-month subscription, though, if there are enough dramas I’m interested in. I did that once with Shortime and saw quite a few good ones. I have been waiting to watch this drama more than any other vertical so far, so I may cave.

It’s really unclear with Lezhin Snack how to watch ads for points but if you say no thank you to paying, the choice for ads pops up. It doesn’t have as many ways to gain point freely as other apps, but it’s still possible. I made it to episode 13 yesterday but I think most of those were free episodes to hook you in.

I only have one tattoo and it is a medium sized butterfly tattoo on my left side upper back. My bf bought it for me as a high school graduation gift. It is pink and green. Pink was his favorite color and green was mine. And I got a butterfly as a sign of freedom from school cause I got bullied really badly in high school. He was the one that passed away when a car that was going 50mph and was texting on her cell phone not paying attention and not knowing there was a red light and hit him while he was at the stop light on his motorcycle. And found out he was gonna propose 3 months after he died which would have been around christmas time but his dad gave me the ring and I keep it on a necklace chain in my jewelry box.

Is Pit babe uncut on Netflix in Europe? I heard may say that only iqiyi has/had the uncut version. I watched S1 on YouTube and wanted to watch the uncut now some months later so I am confused

Edit: I summed up S1 and the duration per episode is 51,6 Minutes but Mdl says 54. Thats really odd. I don't have Iqiyi yet and would like to know if it has the full version. It is so unfortunate because I thought I could finally watch the whole thing. The uncut is rated 0.2 better and that got me really hyped.

You could watch it on kisskh, uncut, both seasons.

Be My Player Two ep 2

May contain spoilers!

Is it possible to use the spoiler tool? I only ask cuz I'd like to read what you have to say about this drama, and other ones, but I don't want to know everything, lol. I skip over every one of your posts that start with "May contain spoilers!" 😁🤣

dora:
I really liked Love Class 3.

Sure, I can keep it for now. I'll check out the first ep soon and see if I want to continue it or not.

dora:
Oh—but you like age-gap romances don’t you? So then I’d at least try it.

I LOVE age-gap love stories! (That's why I wish I knew the scoop on Mr. P's love story, muhahaha).

I went back and used the tool (hopefully correctly, haven't used it before) and basically covered the last section which was more about the episode plot.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing something so personal. Your tattoo has such a meaningful story behind it, and I think it's a wonderful way to honor his memory. 💜

Be My Player Two ep 2

I thought this would be smth I'd like but it wasn't long into EP 1 that I started having second thoughts. Maxky's character is jarring and OTT to me. Not sure I'll get past it. I'm always disappointed with either OTT roles or my reaction to them, cuz it means I'll likely drop it. I don't know why I feel so strongly about that type of character, I just do. It's like nails on a chalkboard. The more ridiculous (imo) or cringy the behavior/humor, the more I run the other way. There's been a few exceptions, but overall it's a def no no.

I'll keep tabs on what other watchers have to say about this one! Thanks again for the spoilers! They worked for you! 👍😁

Hmmm, interesting. I feel a bit intimidated by men with tats on their finger knuckles. I don't know why but it feels threatening. Anywhere else is fine, lol. Wait, maybe under the eyes feels the same as the knuckles.

Such a sweet and bittersweet story. I remember you mentioned him in the past. It's very special to have a tangible token of him that you'll never lose. Hugs ❤️ 🤗 (Those stupid bullies!!)


I'll just share 2 of my fav tats. I have a large colorful very decorative custom butterfly covering my whole upper back shoulder area and large colored star-sun on my side shoulder on the opposite arm. I'm prob going to have the bracelet tat a plain color. Maybe dark brown or sepia. Ooo, maybe turquoise, one of my fav colors. Now I'm distracting myself with thoughts of designing smth.

I wouldn't mind a Stray Kids tat, maybe smth in Korean, but I'd have to answer too many questions about it. Unless I camo that tat inside a floral one. Time for me to stop thinking!

I really need to finish this one! I started a C-historical for the first time in a while, Blossoms of Power, and LOVE it! I'm having a hard time pulling myself away.
