🍑🍌 BL + gay: all watched 🌈 ⚣

BL feature film.

♦ compilation of the series Life: Senjou no Bokura – this Director's Cut includes a few extra minutes.

• unverified, but i read that a scene toward the end of this (originally the final scene) is like an alternate ending for HIStory3: Make Our Days Count (also on this list).  those actors have a brief cameo in the scene but i'm not sure they call each other by name.

UGH, it's complicated – ///?SPOILER?/// simply put, it's a body swap/gender swap where the ML realizes he is attracted and in love regardless of the fact that it's another man (so bi or pan), and he goes all in. can't quite call it a "true BL" but to me it is.

♦ sequel (special) to Mr. Queen – adds a bit more to the story so i'm including it.

◒ on hold  |  ✧ started: 12-07-2020

series with gay support character that is important to story and is actually a well-written character, not just a token gay.  ML pretends to be gay for much of the story and there is a lot of homophobic trash here, even by the MCs (although i believe they are unaware of how shitty they sound - if not homophobic then extremely ignorant at the very least).

series with a ML who may be bi/pan.  this is a *very* weak addition, but ///?SPOILER?/// the ML has prosopagnosia (aka face blindness) and the FL is sometimes in a man's body (body swap/gender swap) but he does not see her or treat her any differently.  because of this he seems to be pan but i don't remember anything overtly romantic happening during those times (a bit of baiting maybe).

gay couple shown in a few brief scenes; the main story revolves around playing with BL tropes and it's flipping side-splitting. XD
