BL MASTERLIST

If you are a fan of the manga, you will want to watch it and you could understand better. If not, is an average Japanese Bl movie.

The acting is average, the deliver of their love story is average, and the chemistry... lacks.

Still, the story behind is sweet and lovely, art and flower lovers are welcomed.

Chaotic, insipid, empty.
I'm not that fond on the main characters, and specially Fiat, is hard to understand emphasize or like him after how he acted on TarnType 2 and even here knowing his reasoning is still of, stupid. I feel like trying to make Fiat the standard bl passive bottom from thai bls they are taking away the only cool side that he had. If i disliked some of his ways before, now i cannot stand him, he comes across as fake, childish and a martyr that gives his ass as a sacrifice. And Leo is so empty, the only thing that he does is taking care of Fiat and treating him like a 5yo kid. Is weird and creepy.
And about them as a couple...  they have hot, sweet, bonding moments and all, love to see that, but i still don't feel the love chemi between them in the way i like it, in the eyes, in the small things... is a bit dry of emotions. And let's not eve talk about the intimate scenes, they try to portray it as if they were a crazily hot couple in bed but everything feels forced, staged and weird.

My hopes were landing on the second couple Leon and Pob, they are really cute, funny and sweet together, their story and them individuallly have depth and it was very nicely built. BUT Mame had tu ruin it with stupid ilogical issues that break them up and leave us with an speciall episode of a clifhanger for, who knows if a series of their own sometime in the future. They could have done it better, tastefully, logically... but choose the Mame route.

Is a cute short!

Delivers.

The plot twist is cuteeeee :)

A sweet candy.

A cute simple short. 

Not too much meat but still sweet. Want a second part to know more.

That was painful to watch both physically and emotionally, emotionally because you get to see a man losing everything gradually -with no proper excuse for it-, and physically because you have to sit on your arse for two bloody hours watching a man losing everything, without a freaking excuse for it!!!

So beautiful, so sweet, so painfully broken...  

i'm debastated.
Now excuse while i keep crying in the corner.

This was the En of love couple that had more fans and we will have a full series later on during 2021.

For me it wasn't a great love story tho. I don't like Vee, how he behaves and treats people.  I gave him a little bit of redemption, let's see if they give enough in the long series for me to enjoy their love.

The ship is good, they have chemistry, that's probably why they stand out even more.  Both hella handsome and good acting skills.

I wanted better for Mark tho, but let's give them the benefit of the doubt for a future progress.

I shipped them the most out of the 3 stories.

Quite cute. Enjoy their moments, the library one... sweetest and honest ones.

This was recorded while the first huge strike from our enemy, the Covid. Postponed first and shortened later.

The other 2 couples had 4 eps and this one 3. Sadly, because they had huge potential.

Still, was a sweet treat and i enjoyed them the most.

Want more from them.

The start of En of Love.

Their couple is cute, crazy cute hight diference. Liked that both have personality and know themselves.

When they get together, they are the most stable, healthy, honest and full of maturity and love out of the 3 couples. Maybe that's why the story doesn't have that much. There's not that much drama here. But personally,  i loved to see a good love like this one.

The series as a series is average and so is the acting but imo. Some predictable boring stuff. A bit outdated.

They are strong, the kind of couple that trust and has a great foundation.  They are building a house with strong firm foundations witch is nice to see, maybe not as entertaining but. Hey! you nice, keep going. 

I do wanna see more of this two as well.

I'm just so... The story disapointed me. A cute premise that turned into a childish scheme and ruined what could have been the sweet teen love confesion that i wished all this to be.

I hate how Akk treats Theo like he is a kid that cannot do, touch or handle anything but then again often times he proves that he is just that child like so... Whatever floats their boat.

Overall i just had higher hopes and this was mundane at best.
Let's collectivelly pretend that Theo wasn't this insecure stupid kiddo and they ended together at ep 8. THE END

I don't know, sometimes is funny, sometimes dramatic sometimes sweet... It's an ok drama if you live the fantasy and forget all the major issues that this would have.

The gays also deserve their unrealistic robot love story and this one is good to satisfy that.

Quite a good old school movie.

One of those that i like, An story, LGBTQ+, BL, Movie... everything, as it should.

The key moment was... was something.  Great acting and cinematography for the times.

Interpretative ending.

One of the most beautiful, unique and heartbreaking series I have ever seen. Truly unforgettable. Magnificent storytelling, stellar performances and excellent cinematography.

This series is the definition of bittersweet - the most beautiful and the most heartbreaking definition of bittersweet.

Strange. Unusual. Melancholy. Beautiful. Profoundly original.
It is remarkable that somehow the creators of this drama are making these disparate elements come together to work so well.

The whole point of the show is to accept loss, to mourn it, to breathe life into the memories of the person you lost, to let the scar heal and fade, and keep going.

Sad, very, but i love this heart wretching full of life meaning dramas.

Occasionally we get this introspective and full of meaning bl pieces that make us all have hope for the genre and be grateful that it exists and it's giving this massive, diverse and deep love stories to the gay community out there that has been neglected and robbed from having monumental love stories and for everyone else to enjoy them as well.

“The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.“
Funeral Blues, WH Auden

What is this.

I saw friends making tik toks with a more convincing acting and plot, and that itself should warn you.

I knew this was bad before watching it, but i am the kind of person that watches even knowing it so i can say it sucks from my own judging, 

I like to watch bad movies as well, sometimes you can rant or laugh about it.  Maybe you want as well. 

Meh

Not a fan of having 4 or 5 stories that are very different with the same pairing. Some where ok and others i completely dettached myself from them.

It was all over the place, too much nonsense, too much drama, the chemistry was a bit off...

Poorly acted but worse written. 

Toxic cheater and guywho forgives everything, rapist and his womanizer boyfriend... the hell.

The kind of BL that should't be done.

Bad incoherent story.
Tries to be funny, but lacks.
Tries to be BL, but not at the same time, let's not make our country hate this.

It's a pass.

A weird one, a bit hard to digest.

Like i said i don't mind art to cross morals, so that's interesting.

The issue is that isn't a good one.

This is an important movie to make.

Highlights issues that are very important for the LGBTQ+ comunity.

You will be furious and disappointed with the dad, Phoon
Good to see that the other papa has balls and is a bomb as dad.
The kid does a pretty good damn job.

The ending that deserved.

Yuke, i would like you to be my dad, or my daddy, you can choose. Well, you are gay, so let's just see you as a dad /uncle haha Still, if you are open to women, i would gladly marry you as well.

Nat, Singto left to find himself but you found the family that you wanted, not bad.  Singto is Singto tho. hahaha sorry, i like to put my finger into the wound, *jokes for the ones that know*

Skipped half of it. It was ridiculous and no chemistry at all.

As a hardcore football fan my entire life i cringed constantly. 0 effort.

Another good premise that felt short.

Has her ups and downs.

A bit better than the first and a bit worse.

Take it as that.

Is a good short. 

Don't come for romance, is more about dealing with issues.

Meh. This is a pass if you aren't like me and watch everything no matter what.

They tried to make a complicaterd ode to forever love but it's just a mess, senseless and doesn't meet the expectations.

I felt nothing and care 0 about everyone and everything.

Is a filler. Feels all kinds of short. Predictable plots, a ugly until he takes his glasses and brakets off, kind of early 2000 american teen romance movie style.
The actors are cute and all. Puwin lips are giving me everithing at this point. 

This is your upgraded basic BL 2021 edition, full of nonsense, stupid plots, cringe characters and actions... GMMTV has such a great production quality that everything feels better than low budget productions, but they still have a lot to improve when it comes to the actual stories. I really had high hopes for this one, so the slap on my face was harder. Comming after ATOTS, you can clearly see the downgrade. A cute mess that ends without leaving a mark on me.

I hate the shippers and their scenes, the motorbike/dogs one wasn't even funny, plain bad,  weird and fakest chrome ever, shocked this quality came from GGMTV production. in general I'm so over this type of shipper characters and fake girlfriends in bl... please let's build a healthier place for everyone, this is making me feel like the frigid, act like a 5yo passive and submissive japanese FL on doramas, is toxic and painful.

Your old friend from Japan.

Currently it's aged, never was good, but it was what we had.

It has good moments, i remember how blindly in love the older one was and how the other had a hella sad struggling past.

Sometimes i don't know how i remember all this old school Japanese movies, and more specially how i differentiate them. This is old school coming to end times, 2015. From 2018-2019 things are getting better.

It was your typical:  What are this feelings, no, unsure, yes, fuck this isn't right, afraid, better not, sad past comes along, sickness,  let's try, too late.

For a while 80% of Japanese BL was this plot line, and sad ending.

Pain and sadness, our gays cannot be happy.

I recall a sweet scene with photos and white curtains.

A sad but meaningful short.

Memories vs forgetting.

This was one of my first Taiwanese BL movies.

Yes, it's quite absurd but for the times wasn't as terrible.
The issue is that the traumas are a bit... eh silly.

But has some comedic scenes that are a bit entertaining and the actors are quite cute.

I wound't say is a must watch but you can watch it as a filler or to go back in time to early 2000's BL.

Bland

Wabi sabi style, stupid school series with no sibstance just to get the coin
Thank god a binged this one.

Cannot stand Earth voice, sorry
Love Pond as an actor but this is a steppig pad drama in order to eat till a good one comes along again. I feel that the one he is doing in 2025 looks promising.

Liked the methapor a lot. Made me sad but happy that they could get each others hearts. 

Worth every second of those 9 minutes. 

Would have watched if it was elaborated into a movie, the plot has potential to look further. 

The start was promising but it went downhill.

The progress isn't well done, needs a better line of time and the characters act a bit nonsensical, specially the main couple. Oil is like, well, if my man doesn't get in line, may as well enjoy my popularity with males. He does some hard to explain out of character and questionable things while the other is struggling with a lot on his plate.

I enjoyed the secondary couple the best, the band singers.
The scene where they first meet (ep. 1), where one falls in love for the other while seeing him busking and then he tries his best to make him enter into his top music school... is cute as hell.
I was disappointed with the slow and badly put together progress and sometimes is hard to see how the other guy  starts liking this guy as a man rather than as a friend.
But they have some fluffy cute scenes, borderline bromance tho.  Still, i am happy i saw them.

The third couple feels like a filler.

Overall the start is promising but falls quite easily.  

I enjoyed this one way more than i anticipated.

At first i saw Singto and jumped with my eyes closed, even knowing that the BL is a side dish.

The series is quite good, a group of friends that are far from put together, everyone is dealing with their ish, cheating, mental health, fresh from college what do i do, who i am, what i want...  Struggling like all of us and making hella mistakes.

Is chaotic, you hate some at a time, then star to understand, forgive, maybe not... it leaves room for all of us to see ourselves in the mirror and use our morals and ideals to decide if some things are ok or not for us. 

Even better than the first one.

Tell me tell me baby... i still jam to the opening song.

We get to see their present after season 1, but most importantly, their past, how they meet, how everything started... it provides a lot of insight on every character and you get to understand and read them.

The feeling of redemption, finding themselves, being confident in their own skin, realizing their true feelings, their mistakes, being mature to let go... but still humanly broken, and making mistakes all over again. 

Even if is not full BL is super fun and the BL plot quite a good one. Is one of those BL + LGBTQ+, no separation line. I live for that. 

I loved it and still have hopes for a 3rd season. Everything kinda ends well rounded yes, but there's also room and an open circle, just as life evolves, they evolved and will keep doing so.

Wet hot dudes, rain and alcohol, sexual tension, sadness and an hetero wedding.

This hardly ends well. Not an exception, be aware. Still, i kinda liked it. 

Our old school Japan.

Consent? we don't know him in this household, or should i say orchestra?

Teacher and student

Poorly executed, acted and directed.

5 to 10 mins of this movie are BL...
And you can bet that those are the only ones i truly watched.

I saw a few more, but wasn't really interesting enough.

The BL couple are worth the search tho, for Korea 2014 and two now quite well known actors, is a fun ride.
They are cute and in love, military issue.

 Those were 5 minutes of sweetness.

What a cute, meaningful and sweet ride.

This was powerful. A love that overcomes covid, sadness, loosings, distance...
It starts like a cute basic story of two teens , a new way of sliding in your dms, sliding in your streaming.  Yes, during covid season, but as a fun game, playful. jokingly... Till you get to know them, their stories, their actual struggles... and everything is deep, as their love deepens as well.
A BL that it's also a LGBTQ+ story, no lines in between, just how i like it the most.

They are so lovable, charming, honest, sweet... is beautiful to watch.

The acting is great, specially from Elijah Canlas, Philippines has a jewel there.
Kudos for the production team, recording with phones during long lockdowns, actors working from their homes, acting in front of a computer... Superb job.

Side note, i watched this while both my parent were positive and i decided to be with them at their house taking care of them. Everything went ok and 0 symptoms, i didn't got infected. But imagine how this felt then, specially Cairo's story.

More than ready to watch the second season.

Is just a recicled extended version of the movie.
Not even going an step forward with the ending.

I feel a bit cheated and the way they handle the international viewers wasn't nice either.

Just one or the other, we didn't need both. Let's see if they give us a 3 seasons that it's actually a continuation.

If you loved the series, you will love the movie.

Our babies are back!! As in love as we left them, ready to deepen their relationship!!

The acting was everything we could expect from this two talented actors. Being able to reciprocate in situ made the chemistry go even further, if that was even possible, they made it happen. The supporting cast delivered their roles, specially Pearl and Aquilles, they put the lightness and necessary fun, the breathing breaks so necessary in a few key moments.

Plotwise, we got what we knew and continued where we left it. The characters dealing with their new realities, emotions and the family issues, this time more centered on Gab's side. It was very well delivered, i would have enjoyed a bit more time for the main couple to connect and all that. After the series, we all wished and were really invested into them having what the pandemic didn't let them before, and i feel like i needed a bit more of that here, just for them, just a bit more prior to all the people that came at once.

I kinda felt that Terrence and Wes relationship was a bit rushed and needed more story in between, i wished they didn't give us the rush and focus less on that here in the movie, but let it develop more in the 2 season. I feel like i haven't been able to really be invested in their story or see their fellings for each others and emotions develop or flow.

The endind is well thought for us to be eager to see what's next and ready to jump into the 2 season whenever they give it to us, but not too hearbreaking to leave us on the floor bawling our eyes put. A bittersweet but hopeful endind, for now, and we all know is just a see you later.

Overall it maintained the level of the series, and we reinforced the fact that we have here a perfect pairing of 2 of the best young actors from the Philippines with a magical chemistry shy to none.

LGBTQ+, Realism, Community real struggles.

The main couple are hot, good actors, part of the community for real... sad to see them so little on Thai BL.

Back then this was the best kiss scene and chemistry i saw coming from Thailand, now they dropped a bit on the rank but still great none less.

Waited for the second season like crazy, even dropped some coin for the project to come to light.

LGBTQ+, Realism, Community real struggles AGAIN.

Not as great as the first season, by far, it didn't went how i wanted or expected but still a good one.
Some new life hustle trying to find their happiness, new actors new couples...

Sometimes it wasn't supposed to work. Sometimes you can start anew. 

Friendship.

The picture, costume desing, the vibes... inmaculate.
Yet the messy nonsensical love stories and changes out of nowhere ruined it for me. 

I fet no love here, but loved every second of the picture department.

Sometimes we need to know where to stop.

I was sad watching this. They made a whole ass mess here trying to bring back to life something that is as dead as my ancestors.
Let's not talk about Pi Pha, what a shitty love story they made trying to find a new ship for Bass. Is ok for the actor to move on, totally, but they should have made a new character for him, not break into pieces the love story,  making our doc a cunt.

This is kinda like if they make a Titanic 2.0 and Rose learns that Jack told his friend that she was a fling and he was about to drop her after they landed. NOPE.

The secondary couple left us with a sweet tooth in 2 moons but here didn't maintain the quality either, still nothing compares to the main ones catastrophe.

i don't really think this was ever a good idea. Let's cast them in new roles an move on. I'll try to forget this.

It had some potential with the story, it tried,  but never actually exploded the way i hoped. 

Just a basic forgettable one.  I really never had much idea what was going on because nothing impressed itself on my stongly enough for me to remember.

It lacks but at least the couple connected decently, even if still feels that it was half done. 

Sweet, cute and japanese emotional style. So far on my top 5 of 2021. The main actor, Jin is hot as hell, his face is just right on my alley, but man, his hands, i never thought i had a thing for hands till now haha.

Love the entire casting and love me a japanese rock band drama. No other country conveys music based dramas like Japan, they really express all their emotions through the songs beautifully.

 I just wish they delivered on the love deppartment as much as in the music/emotional one, more like in the intimacy, touches, development and all that jazz between the lovers, it would be the icing of the cake, but most of the times, Japan is still Japan after all.

The ending credits song, Strange days by Panorama Panama Town is great!! Puts me on the best mood :)

Another old school but Taiwan.

Fun at some point, desperately bad at others.

I remember liking the bottom a lot (is a cutie and a keeper) and not understanding why he was in love with his friend that wasn't exactly a good catch, his girlfriend will testify.  

Quite eccentric, the trope trying to win the gay contest have some fun ones. Take it for what it is, a nonsensical ride with many queens.

Expected worse.

Not your typical sweet BL

SPOILER:

They went south... yep ;)

• The cringe was hardcore this last episode, i really rolled my eyes every 5 seconds haha. The last scene when the pendants are glued while on their necks... i was about to pass out istg. They were cliché and full of tropes the entire series but the amount of fake sugar in the last episode was too much to handle till the point that i completely stopped enjoying and was an strugle to finish the series.
  
  For me this series started very promising and loved many aspects of it, a good premise, production quality, great taste with the sets (the house was super aesthetically pleasing), cool action stunts for bl, good pairing... But everything went downhill quite fast, the tropes never ceased, their chemistry was lowering when it was supposed to be increasing with their feellings, the sexual tension was nowhere to be found and the romance and kisses felt forced... Added to continuosly repeating the same thing with the mafia trying to hurt Sky in stupid ways, poorly written, characters that made or said things that had no sense and were stupid there... and all this considering that even from the start i didn't took it super seriously, so imagine.
  
  Started as an 8 for me and ended as a 6.5.

a mess, frustration, nosense.

It's a nonsensical fantasy comedic series.

I am not the biggest fan of body swapping, way less with bl content. Sometimes i feel like they use it as an excuse to show bl without actually being bl. Here i am not feeling that bad, because is a magical ride all over, not only in that sense. but still... not my favorite thing in the world.

Didn't like how the handle the "If he likes to dress as a girl is a pervert" thing, at all.

The ending is quite open, it was cute the overall "no matter what", but i won't watch it again for sure.

Decent short.

Could be better but has some good points and an understandable struggle. 

The scenery is already worth the watch.

It's ok, a bit of nothing.

It wasn't terrible but tried to hard.

They always looked like they were living a hell but never told us what happened to be that way just that "something happened".

The first love never looked like they were more than friends with some bad blood around.

The actual end game couple had no much chemistry but the guy that comes at his rescue has the cutest puppy personality and puppy face and man that sold the series for me, shallow here just wanted to see that beautiful smile eyes.

So so. Rushed, i don't really get a build up for them falling in love.

But it's super short so.

Okeish

Not for everyone, really damaged peope doing damage and eventually finding peace.

Emotionally disturbing things.

I enjoyed it but it has a place and a time. 

Dark.

Quite fun. Family/friendship kind of sitcom.

The BL couple is hella cute. They have some ups and downs on the road, some issues to face after a long term relationship.
They are way different and want different things, are afraid of others... and they have to deal with all that common issues.

Enjoyed the drama but i would only rewatch a few  cute scenes if so.

An... Ok short.

It fail to get me. There is a bit of cuteness there.

We all been knew about the keys ;)

The kiss and their cuteness helped sustaining this ship so they could make Ingredients the series.

This is a bad one, nonsensical, pointless.

Thank god they had a 2 chance.

One of the best series that GMMTV has put out.
The story is what is worth it, but that doesn't leave behind a beautiful OST and great acting from two of the`very best GMMTV actors, Singto and Ohm.

I am not a supernatural stories type of fan, at all, but this is something. The story feels strong, there's weight, deepness, each episode provides more and more insight, and how the love story develops is just... mesmerizingly stunning. Worth every single second.

There are some scenes there that alone could outweight plenty of full BL series. 

Get your tissues ready, and put the seatbelt in your heart, because this will be a strong ride of emotions.  One of those that provides you with a lot of life meaning.

The way this went downhill... badly

Doha started this dating and is not being responsible. Has decided on his own for a while that he is leaving indefinitely yet has been trying to deepen the relationships at the same time knowing that he will leave him anyways... for me that's egotistical and doing Junsu dirty.
After that the 2 last episodes felt like an insult.

The worst part is that there's 0 chemistry between them.

The bl is just sprinkles between a boring hetero couple that actually never formed in the actual manwha but this production decided to give 70% of the screentime. 

The gays were sidelined getting supporting characters treatment in their own story. 

In 10 episodes whe get a few fun scenes, a last minutes of the last episode confesion scene and a 30 seconds scene holding hands and shoulders, the end.

It was ok.

Liked the premise, felt that the plot was lost half of the time, stupid stuff to cover lack of story... and a hopeful ending.

I liked it, but not as much as i expected to.

Liked it more than the series.
Makes more sense and the storyline goes as it should. i would have put more meat in some of the plots and not in others but overall this was enjoyable.
The ending... sweet.

Has some redeeming qualities but a plain boring and poorly acted GMMTV filler.

The movie after the short series.

Japan got his shit together after 2018, they are doing great things.
This movie is needed, specially there, is a discourse, is an LGBTQ+ empowerment.  

I just felt that i would have appreciated a bit more about their life together from the mid teens after the short series, till he leaves him to have an heterosexual marriage. It would have added a bit more deepness and layers. You can also watch this skipping the series, is not needed to understand the movie, but you would be missing out big time.

Still, this movie is real, important, their story is quite like the weather there, the gloomy sky but calmly breeze, not too hot, not too warm, just right.

China. One doesn't need to say much more.

Potential ruined, barely any substance and you have to read between lines. No physical contact. 

Again, China.

Gay reality show

Best dating show season i have seen, ever.
SH AND SJ COUPLE IS TO DIE FOR
AND THEY HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR 200 DAYS NOW!!

Jungyoong king, You did not deserve what Hanmin did to you.
Youngjoon carried this season for me.

1. Being the one making the group feel confortable and get them out of the awkwardness at first

2. The drama with Myeongkyung where he showed realness (hate to watch everyone act perfect and proper all the time portraying fake personas, i much rather have someone with layers that also makes mistakes get angry, stressed... human). Both are my fave contestants because of that and i understand both.

3. Being straighforward with liking Hanmin and truly being intentional and wanting to make it work, Hanmin did the typical korean fuckboy reverse card, and sadly i saw it comming because of the way he acted from the get go (remember it was his idea to make couple rings on the first date, ear charmer), it came across as a bit trying to look perfect and tell you and do all the lovely things that make you catch feellings and you would think he is into you badly, but in reality he is just trying to look good but without actually being deep and personal, surface level fakeness, enough to make you believe there's a bond there. Because of that it's the only one i don't like.

The rest of the show was a bid meh for me, he gave me all the drama, romance and did all the talk to make the group have fun and all.

This proves that Japan has more to offer than the old school bittersweet and poorly executed BL.
 
Is a very cute and realistic coming of age short series, a prequel of the movie. Sort but tasteful, the only issue is that the filler arcs get too much focus and sometimes the point should have been somewhere else.

The sleeping in two futons scene got me through it. I was there, trying to be as quiet as i could, stopping my breath.

I wished the ending had more deepness and soul, that's what lacked to most for me. It needed a bit more there, just 5 more minutes mom.

The History saga.
A good friend that never fails you... but this one kinda, is just ok. The worst for sure.

I don't really enjoy the swapping bodies arcs, here is even weirder.
There are some cute things and scenes and the top is very handsome.

And History got better.

This is a toxic love, works for me. They are crazy, obsessed, irrational, powerful and hot.  

The acting in the last few scenes... wow.

My second last favorite from our friend History.  

The story is a bit weirdly explained, lacks emotions on the delivery and they don't really feel that much in love.

There are a few nice moments and is watchable.

This History installment is completed, but it doesn't feel like it. I left it wanting more.

The 2 year of History was an upgrade from the first.

The stories here were good, cute, sweet, the chemistry was there, the acting, the eye candy, the building up, the moments, the butterflies... and the kisses.

I really enjoyed it. Sad that the movie will no longer be done. But happy that we got this good story.

History coming through once again.
This 2 year was a good one.

This is an age gap story between a divorced uni professor with a daughter and his sweetie pie young student.

The story is nice, well executed, sweet, full of good feelings. They have a good love and finally everything feels right for once when they meet and fall in love.

History 1 and 2 walked so History 3 could run.

This is the best one. What a meaningful, sweet and sad ride.
Their love is cute as if, and the story and acting superb.
Let's give a proper place to the secondary couple, they delivered and hardly i like both couples equally and feel that they made a fantastic job with both in every sense.

This series has serious doses of lovely moments, great kisses and hot sex scenes. Enjoy.

The stories of both couples feel deep, interesting, with layers, just how it should be. Every character is well built, have their background and you connect with them, see them overcome issues and grow their love.  Fantastic acting.

This is the first time that i cry my eyes out for a ball of rice.

I am on the shortest side, the one that loved the sad ending (be warned, ep. 10). The acting at the end is just... outstanding. The way those emotions are portrayed it just breaks you into million pieces.
Is not often when you see this kind of pain and absolute devastation without an ending redemption, a glance of hope. There's none, there's no way. I am in love with how such an inner core sadness was projected and we were able to taste it in all her glory. Is devastating but totally profound. This is the truth and realism of that kind of feelings, if you experienced that before, you know this was you, this will always be you.

History 3 is just it.

Both stories are great, liked MODC better specially because of the ending (call me masochist).
But, even with that, let's just state that this one is unique. A plot not seen yet in BL land.

A police and a suspected criminal, both hot dudes that know how to handle a gun (i saw a hard gun in someone's boxers at some point, you ain't lying there my pal), handcuff each others and fight. It delivered, as it should.
There was also love, deepness, interesting arcs, action, sexy moments...
The secondary couple is so cute and fun as well, the perfect balance for the dark side.

Can i just get any of them or all and a birthday cake? For delivery please. We all know what to do next.

HIStory 3 peaked tbh, I have maybe around 15 bls with a 9 or + and both of those were. Even the sadness of MODC ending (hated by many but actually elevated the story for me) touched my core inmensly, it was very raw and with no redemption, just how real life loss really feels. I cannot watch the box of memories or the "he will always be 18" scenes without breaking my heart, but i did not felt a single scene here, neither happiness, sweetness, sadness... very below the bar and some ridiculous plots and scenes. I was out if it the entire time, 0 invested.

Not reaching me in any way or making me feel their emotions is the worst scenario to me. So along with the 1st stories, the worst ones in my ranking. I would say that it's a series that pass by like nothing to me, i won't recall about it or miss it. But i still hope they make a part 6 tho, i will take this as an slump.

Plot and scrip aside, I'm quite cold about the main couple, for me one of the worst from the entire franchise (just some of the first seasons could compete for that sad rank). I cannot sense their chemistry even when they are together in bed. I never felt like they are romantically in love, not even for a second. First and foremost for the script but in terms of the acting, from Hai Yi side, he at least somewhat tried, worked with what he was given and would like to see the actor in another role but... yes, sorry i do not enjoy He Bo Wei / Tai Che Ni. Nor the character, his personality, eye expresion, kissing and skinship... I don't know if it's the actor who cannot act well, that he did not take the character seriously or that the character itself is so bad that nothing could save it or make the actor try to act like he loves the other guy.

Absurdity

A super short. Literallly 2 scenes. It was cute, but nothing else. 

5 minutes watching it as a sweet candy won't hurt.

This is a good teen series that broke many stereotypes and put out there hard to diggest topics.

Is also the first tv show where gay teens are included as a main arc as well, one of the couples. Only for that is a must. Movies like Love of Siam helped for this to be produced and this helped to have Love sick, the actual first BL series.

In some ways it reminds me of a toned down The OC.

A continuation of the first one. 

The series is a mess and i skipped half of it.
But there are some interesting things here and there. Also, hot scenes.
It finished with a clifhanger, so they may want to have a 2 season.
Would just watch it for the hot scenes, not gonna lie.

It lacks on every department. I would say that it's somethig to watch to kill time.

A bunch of early teens that play a card game where someone is a king and is able to tell other to do all kind of things, usually those are making out, wich is nice for us.
Mark did a decent job here, that couple with the crossdresing had some moments, like the bathtube one.
The main couple is a bit strange, friends to lovers but a bf on the side.

The ending is disappointing.

A bit beter than the first one, still badly ejecuted, and bad storytelling and pace of the plot.

This time the card game has less presence, but the scene when it happens is basically 10 minutes of a bunch of dudes kissing each others, pasionatelly but totally weird, like being sucked by a vacuum cleaner and fighting for getting your lips out.

The coupling is complicated and bad thougth as well. brothers liking the same dude, friend liking the friend, boy liked sleepimg with both brothers and changing his mind.
Wouldn't recommend.

The chaos and comedy felt over the top. 

They ended up together after the 1 season and here they made no progress at all till the last second, always like that so they don't show love, intimacy... disappointing japan, stop joking and just milking the bl tag in half of your series

A cute light thing. 

The typical passive and irritating japanese personality tho that makes things go slowly and have stupid misunderstandings.

But they as a couple and their romance is very cute and sweet, 

pg13 friendly.

This has been one of the best bls i have ever watched, straight to my top 10 no question asked.

The story is entertaining, unique, exciting... and their love story truly transcends
The acting and chemistry was amazing and that elevated it but the story carries all the waight for this to be a once in a lifetime type of series, one of those that leave a dent, a mark in my heart.

The only thing is a wished to get more details about the present time, how Yai gets to know about their past lifes, how he waits till they can meet again...see more angst there and love, see them grow together... but was one scene as usual.

If only the tribal times5 second scene makes me believe that we may have another season and maybe that one and the present life, or maybe even more are shown and talk more in deeep about their bond that transcends every period of time.

I'll be waiting for that to happen.

A cute short about 2 high school classmates that like each other, a comming of age one. The top is handsome as hell, the bottom  looks a lot like Xi Gu from History Make our days count.

Is good. Nothing more mothing less. Sweet, take it for what it is.

The story is as sweet and tender as i remebered from the old movie adaptation (goes till half of the series more or less), the acting specially Kohei was brilliand and he has those actor eyes able to portray emotions

BUT  

I get that this is a great adaptation of the manga, but for me the story lacks a good pay off for the confesion time, for a love so tender, honest, sweet and unconditional, for the acting, specially of Kohei character... this needed a better pay off, is not about kiss not to kiss only, is about how to make the hearts of the fans move, and i just rolled my eyes and felt nothing romantic with that ending.

Overall is great till the last 3 episodes that got me saying, go boys give us nothing.

What in the world. 

A mess. Pooly acted specially by the older cast. The story is all over the place, the plot keeps going on circles and at the end they open everything, but in a very bas and distasteful way, and there's no second movie / season. WTF? If you were about to do this, better do nothing.

Not recommended in the slightest.

Is one of those that i don't love but neither hate.

I had a hard time understanging how they fall for each other. But when they have kiss or sex scenes, they are into it, so that´s a plus for me to believing them.

The story is ok, a cool has it all guy and a nerdy one, the sencond is the one that follows the first and tries to make him fall in love, witch is fun and not that common in bl territory.

The family against it plot is not very well done,.

Follows where the first part left.

They are together, having a tom and jerry relationship.
They make really hot scenes.

*Goship* : The top here has a huge scandal nowdays. He had a long term gf, aparently mentally unestable. They were contemplating marriage, but things went downhill. She "exposed" that he do drugs and cheated on her with shemales a few times. He said that he didn't do illegal drugs or anything and she lost her shit. Nothing added about the shemaless ;)

Back to the movie, the story is again, not very good, and they have some back and forth a couple of times, jokes misinterpreted... meh.

The worse part  is how it ends, and leave us with that horrible clif hanger, no 3rd part. NO.

My heart was acting out before even playing press on episode 1.
This show tugs with your emotions in every way possible mainly due to how real, intense and well done and acted  it is.

I think that both have valid fears and struggles and they just happen to be on different sides of the coin. Sometimes Teh makes mistakes and so do Oh. Mistakes that we all have commited sometimes. I wanna scream; communicate... Lean on each others!!
At the end, i think that Teh character is real and amazing, super caring and a helper, will do anything for Oh, he overcomes things and is a fighter, loved how he realized his sexuality and in a short time he overpowered the fears and look how open and proud he is now... he is just human. If Oh wanted the moon, he will get it for him, quite sure about that. His issue is that he botles up. I do that as well. He was at a point where he lost his inspiration, his dream, and his old relation with oh-aew. So when he found a perfect source for his lost confidence he clung himself to it. It was more like his dream on one side and oh aew on the other side.

 This drama is not just about their love, it's about their growth, They can't live without each other, like "you can do anything you want but just don't disappear" there's something that ties them together no matter what, a profund and sincere love that needed more maturity and emotional inteligence to keep being the thing that conquers everything else. It happened. 

I could write a thesis about why this series is so brilliant, but i think we all can testify that, and honestly, i am so full of beautiful emotions that now it's not the time to go back, i'm just totally happy about the existence of this piece of art. And totally devastated about this being the end. At least, for now.

Started with a nice premise but then absurdity came, going in circles when they could go straight, nonsense of explaining everything serious to friends but not to the bf and person who really could make a diference, not making us see or understand how they catch feelings... 

I'm so tired of this sloppy bls... they are ruining the genre to me. 

I'm not here just to watch two cute guys kiss, i want a story, layers, cohesive plots and to feel the love and emotions.

THE MASTERPIECE

No words here will provide enough justice to the greatness of this show. The must watch of the must watch BL and LGBTQ+ series.

I am absolutely flabbergasted, mesmerized... I remember start watching the first two episodes on a row, went to see my family with tears in the eyes saying how i never felt like this watching a show. Because i felt every single thing.

This is one of the most realistic coming of age stories I've ever seen. Is beautiful, has layers, Deepness... You feel what they say, what they don't, what they do, what they don't. You feel every glance, every touch, every breeze, every tear...

Every trace on a paper tells you something, the coconut smell comes to you as well, the red color becomes very important, your knee feels a touch.

It has so many deep emotions rooted there that i even felt drained in the most beautiful worth it way possible. Totally rewarding. 

The story, the production, the photography, the landscapes, the colors, the way is directed and filmed, the narrative, the acting, the OST... There's no better BL out there.

Worth to watch. For the die hard fans, me included.

This was the perfect mix and perfect definition of fun + fluf.

They made it 90's, love the vibes.

I could live without the "always make a last ark of issue that will be solved in the last ep", that usually is the parents and it was here again. Even been the distance issue would have been a 1000000 times better. But since i watched it in 2 days, it wasn't as an strugle (yep, i skipped there and problem solved).

Still, super cute teen like couple, clumsy, stupdly folish (youth) and tender.
It was teen comedy, tons of stupidly fun moments, very easy to enjoy and leaves a good aftertaste in your mouth. 

I saw a compilled version i¡on youtube.

China cannot do full on bls because of the bans and restrictions. 

Some advances but this is a mess and nothing physical can happen between them.
