I've started a few new titles that just ended or will be ending soon...and they're all JBLs ๐ I watched the first ep of each drama to get a feel for them. I got this idea from one of you guys here, but I don't remember who. I wanted to know which ones I might enjoy the most and which ones I should pass on.
I don't think too hard or examine too deeply about a drama overall, so my comments tend to be superficial and casual. I'm in it for the entertainment above all else, lol. And I would say many, not all, of the BLs I watch are more lighthearted so there may not be a strong connection to the story or characters like Winter Sun, for example. That drama inspired me more than most.
Your Sky: Hare Nochi Koi - I watched the Thai version while it was airing, along with other members here. I liked and enjoyed it, but didn't LOVE it. I had to keep watching for it to grow on me and I'm glad I finished it. I love Thomas and Teerak's sister was so adorable!. ๐
I'm on the fence about the J-version after EP 1. I have a good impression of Sora, but for Hinata, the fluffy innocent cutie bits aren't there for me. Overall the vibe is less colorful and bubbly than the Thai version. I could keep watching for now. Maybe it gets cuter?
Your Summer, My Storm - There's just enough of a different spin on the story and enjoyable MLs that I watched the first 3 eps. I'm prob more curious about how this story ends than anything else. I do have a soft spot for Natsuki though. I'll keep it on my CW list.
My Summer of You - I didn't finish the first ep. It felt like a recycled x 100 plot with the exact same lines like so many school JBLs. Convos are cookie cutter and uninspiring. There's no motivation to keep watching. Or it's me. Or my bias is showing. ๐ญ๐คฃ. Do I keep watching or not...๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Now I'd rather start Popular Serizawa Acts Weird around Me, but I need to wait to binge watch! Mr. P got me hyped! lol
