ElementalStar:

barely keeping up with all the dramas.

I love your succinct wrap-ups. Helpful feedback on the titles I haven't started yet, and for the ones I am watching, it's fun to compare notes.

The number of new BLs these days is so overwhelming. I'm amazed that you can juggle so many, while also reading your daily books and doing all your house projects, and and and ... sugoi!

ElementalStar:

Ao to Midori: kind of boring.

I'm lovin' this one, but I tend to like slow burns if I'm engaged with the protagonists, which I am.

ElementalStar:

You Should Be The One to Kiss Me: swear this has been the year of long titles 😂 But yeah, I'm really enjoying this one.

Yes, this one is off to a promising start. Looking forward to tomorrow's episode 2.

And yes, some of the recent JBLs have had awkwardly long titles! But we've also had this trend here in Germany: For example, a few years back there was a very funny movie called "Das merkwürdige Verhalten geschlechtsreifer Großstädter zur Paarungszeit" = literally: "The Peculiar Behavior of Sexually Mature City Dwellers During the Mating Season". I think that one might win the crazy title award. 🤪

ElementalStar:

Lovex3: Out of the three main couples, one has me sucked in, one is surprisingly adorable, and one has me rolling my eyes.

I'm guessing that Physic/Fuen is the first, Din/Star is the second, and Aof/Chemi is the third? Or have I guessed wrong?

I sure hope Tang and Time become a successful fourth couple. They're so sweet together!

This series isn't brilliant drama, but it's a total cutie fest, and some of the young actors are quite good (although not at the extraordinary level of Progress and Almond in "Love Sick 2024", a similar school BL from the same studio, Tia51).

Looking at your list, I'm also watching and loving "Fanboy" (my favourite currently airing!), "Police in Love" (I love all things Yin & War!), "Oops, Mysterious Sounds" (love the main couple!), "Crow Club" (I loved Vann/Rakkhun, the second couple less so), and "School Trip S2" (so far: solid sequel to a great S1).
