"Yes, No, or Maybe?"

This thing had major consent issues in its anime version. I've seen the anime and gave it a 2.

I don't know what they're going to do about this tbh

Good question. (I personally am not easily triggered, but I know many are.)

I don't read manga or watch anime, so I'm not familiar with this background. However, my sense is that JBLs are largely directed toward the domestic market, which sometimes has quite different sensibilities about certain themes (likewise with age), so it'll be interesting to see what they do about it, if anything.

I kept telling myself he looked familiar ! He was in the second season of At 25:00, in Akasaka. I'm really glad he got a main role this time, I wanted to see him again. 😊

so many shows, waaaahhh! i wish a day has 36 hrs, so that the 12 hrs i can spend on watching shows lol

Morning everyone!

Remember Thursday is Fool in Love day? I've been waiting for it like forever, even though I know this episode will be ugly and dramatic. I have Chinese, Spanish and Italian classes this afternoon when ep11 is airing, so I'll have to wait for tonight 🤷‍♀️ I wish you all a nice day (or a good night according to where you live on this planet) and talk to you later!

I've been writing a series called "Anything But C-drama" and this is my latest post, from this morning.

This remains one of my all-time GMMTV faves - and speaking for myself, the bad blood between Ohm and Nanon doesn't affect my enjoyment at all. It happens. Successful people (actors or otherwise) can often have strong personalities and big egos, which can lead to clashes. We'll never know the details of what really went wrong between them, but they're both first-rate actors.

Yeah, it's a mystery and will forever remain so. Unfortunately their history does affect my watching BBS again. I don't want to re-watch it and I only watched it once, the first time. Oh well. Maybe this is for the best.

Unfortunately their history does affect my watching BBS again.

For various reasons (including fairness to all the others involved in producing a drama), I generally separate scandal-tainted actors from the dramas, even when there's something unquestionable like a criminal conviction. But yeah, I know that I'm in the minority on this.

What the heck, let's do a quick poll:

If a BL actor is involved in a subsequent scandal (or messy break-up or whatever), how does it affect your opinion or enjoyment of the BL in which they starred?
Significantly. If I'm bothered by what an actor has done, or is widely believed to have done, this usually means that I can no longer enjoy the drama.
Maybe. It depends on the specifics.
Maybe. I'm sceptical of fandom accusations, but if it's proven beyond a doubt (e.g. by a criminal conviction), then I won't watch (or re-watch) the drama.
Generally not. I try to separate the actors from the dramas, even when an actor has unquestionably done something bad.

That guy from Our Youth (Miseinen) was accused of SA or smth and I believe he turned out to be innocent? I'm not sure. I'm on the fence about watching this drama tbh. But since it's in my dropped list (which now resides in the Not Interested section of my watchlist), I will eventually complete it. If only for the sake of completion. But will I watch subsequent dramas of his? Nope.

Edit: Then again I did give up on Chinese content because of CCP propaganda. lol

Xiao Zhan and Wang Yi Bo supporting Xinjiang cotton is what did it for me though. They implicitly support the brutalization of Uyghur people in China. :(

I believe that he was convicted but got off with a modest fine instead of a prison sentence because of "mitigating factors". (Without being in the courtroom or knowing HK law, I won't try to second-guess the judge.)

Damn. I might not watch it after all, then. :(
