10/10 office romance, age gap, employee/boss, food is the love language, coming of age late in life At first because of the visuals of the actors, I thought it would be boring to watch - An old guy falling in love with young guy. But dang !!! I was wrong. And good that I was wrong. It is such a brrath of fresh air. I loved this series. It's about a younger man with a long cherished crush on his boss (ten years older and going through a mid life crisis who decides to save and seduce said man with pancakes. It's wholesome, comforting, sexy, and a very necessary narrative about still having hope, interests, and openness to affection at any age. It's coming of age/queerness packaged in a subtle critique of expectations around masculinity and love and loneliness... and it's beautiful. MUST WATCH!!
10/10 A warm, sweet, and pure gay love story This is my first time to write a review. This drama depicts two unrealistically adorable boys accidentally discovered their sexual-orientation and fell in love with each other, reminding people that how beautiful and pure a relationship could be. I am most impressed by how the two characters reconciled with their own identity and dealt with the social environment together. The Japanese-style respect and communications also makes this drama light-hearted and sincere. The fast pace of story-telling is perfect, though i would not mind spending more time watching these two innocent boys' interactions. This drama rebuilt my love and moral standards, after having witnessed so many ugliness in reality. I am grateful that i watched this. Love to Michieda, his action was impeccable.
like drifting through a beautiful dream. and so romantic! Ritsu, a dreamy illustrator and Fumiya, a rather pragmatic salesman, are a couple. Everything seems fine, but Fumiya hasn't been happy in the relationship for a while, but instead of talking about it, he has been bottling up his emotions. On Ritsu's birthday, the situation escalates: Fumiya finally explodes, and tells Ritsu that he can't be with him any more. Ritsu storms out of their apartment and later is involved in an accident which results in amnesia. Ritsu remembers everything apart from his relationship with Fumiya. Fumiya, who feels sorry for him, tells Ritsu that they used to be roommates. They are back to living together again and both young men find themselves falling in love with the other again. Can they maybe start anew? Oooh, boy, this one could have turned out depressing and dark. But it's not. It's a gentle story of two gentle souls who break up because of a misunderstanding and fall in love again. The production is calm and dreamy and you drift through it like through a beautiful dream. Ritsu and Fumiya are one of those couples where it doesn't need passion and fireworks (oh, there is passion, it's just not over the top), instead Jack O'Frost delivers quiet romance and domestic What I loved most about the production is the wonderful, natural chemistry between the two (gorgeous) leads. It feels natural and not forced, you can feel that both actors are comfortable with each other and if they were not, they are damn good at acting as if they were. Also, and this is what I really would like to emphasize: Their love and kissing scenes were to die for, to the point where they pull you in and you want to watch them over and over again. Jack O'Frost is a typically bittersweet Japanese BL (and I love those and if you decide to watch it, you're in for a good time. Also, it only has six episodes, so it's not too long. 10/10 I wasn't bored for a moment, I didn't have to fast forward and it warmed my heart.
9/10 Wonderful 2nd chance love "I will follow you. Forever, all my life. No matter where it is." Heartbreak, hurt, fears, insecurities, and learning to trust again are the tropes of this series. And, oh, does it do them justice! I felt every heartbreak. Every past memory hit right where it hurts. Their love is simply mesmerizing to me. This series also underlines how hard it is true grand trust again after having been hurt that badly before. Hence, there is a lot of drama here. However, these dramatic aspects are not front and center, but rather an underlying current. This makes it all the more amazingly good to me. The ending is really amazing as it turns their story into a circle with the ending they should have had from the start.
10/10 Two awkward souls find each other I found this show so cute, and I would just smile throughout each episode. Even though Watarai is very popular, he grows tired of it because no one sees him for who is. They all like him for his looks. When he overhears Hioki complements him for his kindness, he's intrigued by this one person who doesn't focus on his looks alone. Deep down, it's about being seen, and Watarai feels seen by Hioki. When they start dating, it was a relief that their friends readily accept them, even though they have to deal with a possessive and jealous Watarai. Hioki feels jealous too but he backs off, not feeling confident he has a right to be with Watarai. I loved seeing them work on their communication. There were just so many things to love about this show.
9/10 Happy of the End 9/10 Happy of the End is a series that draws its charm from a story that is far from glamorous. The main characters both carry heavy scars from their painful pasts before fate brings them together, and eventually, they find love in each other. At first, I expected this series to be overwhelmingly sad, considering how dark and harsh the experiences of each character are. And while the story is indeed emotionally heavy, it gradually reveals moments of tenderness and intimacy that soften the overall tone. What stands out most is the storytelling. Despite the high level of emotional tension throughout the series, it manages to balance pain and love beautifully. The series allows viewers to witness not only suffering, but also the quiet healing that comes from connection and understanding between two people. Overall, Happy of the End is a well-crafted series that blends darkness and romance in a thoughtful and meaningful way. It offers a realistic portrayal of damaged souls finding solace in each other, leaving a subtle sense of hope beneath the sorrow.
10/10 One of the best queer representation nowadays. This series is simply a work of art, I am very happy that productions like this are created, in a world where Queer relationships are always portrayed from negativity and tragedy, Having this series is simply an honor and I want to believe that it is a mirror of the new queer reality. From the bottom of my heart thank you, all the people involved in this series deserve a lot, my dream is someday maybe be a part of a production like this, thank you for let me see my dream come true. I forget to say it but I thanks also for showing that the love has not to be hipersexualized, best wishes for all.
who is paradoxically pink here? Not having read the original manga, i can't tell the extent to which the storyline has been adapted. Most viewers claim absence of harmlessly fatal banters (laughs) and complained of shallow interactions between the leads. This short series on V:ki took me too long to complete. I would blame the cinematography because journalism was different from it's contemporaries as a premise, years ago. However the narrative contained typical elements like reserved and disciplined passive partner, cynical and carefree aggressive partner who flirts women prior to realizing his feelings for his colleague. An EXILE enthusiast pointed out that the agencies of Keito and Yutaro respectively, planned their promotion outside the insular country hence opted a BI. Fortunately, they won't be dragged into toxic shipping culture owing to no stipulated work partnership contracts. Opening theme song is playful and slow unlike most J series. The chemistry between main leads neither impressed nor disappointed me thus i can't recommend this series..... gomen.
I loved this. Short and sweet. Definitely one of the better ones l've seen and may even be my favorite Japanese BL. It was well-written and well-directed. The casting was great: two actually good-looking actors with great on-screen chemistry. The acting was good, too; there were still some awkwardness here and there, especially in intimate scenes (BL guys just never quite know what to do with their hands, do they?), but overall, it was some pretty solid acting from the whole adult cast. I made the mistake of reading the manga halfway through the series run because I got impatient with the weekly release. It was a mistake because I robbed myself of the otherwise worthwhile experience of going in blindly and being pleasantly surprised by all the good things that a well-done show can offer. While I loved the manga and this faithful live action adaptation, I really think I would have enjoyed this a lot more if I didn't have the source material in my head as I watched it. Nevertheless, ! loved the series and I can't wait to rewatch it in one sitting this time.
10/10 Beautiful story, beautifully told I loved every character portrayal, the story, the imagery, everything. This is a masterpiece. Sometimes BL is an overused school-kid trope, generally involving engineering majors. This is not that. It's a beautiful story that is well told. An unlikely (from the outside) pair find solace for their loneliness together, and embark on an emotional, twisting journey. No spoilers, but I will say it's sort of a happy ending. It could be happier if it wasn't for some legal discrimination, but that's not something the writers can change alone. Kudos to the whole cast and crew for making this lovely series.
First off I'd like to say it love is love. If you have an issue with someone loving some one else than that's your problem. There's no grooming so stop talking about it or acting like there was ever. This is a very good show. Shintaro is a smart young man and knows what he wants in life and figured it out at a young age. Akria on the other hand Shintaro's love interest well...lol different' story. It seems like he didn't know what to do with his life and just went with the flow. That doesn't mean he isn't a good soul tho. When they where both younger it turns out Akira saved Shintaro's life and that event stayed with him for ever and that's what made him fall in love with Akira. Shintaro makes a promise to himself he doesn't want to see Akria cry and wants to be by his side for ever to protect him. I feel like season one started out slow and I would have loved to see Akira stop acting like the way he did the first half of the show. Even when Shintaros an Adult he still acts the same way it even continues in season 2. I really want to see a season 3 but he needs to stop acting like a kid. I feel like most of the problems could have been avoid if Akira would grow up and stop causing them and just ell him how he feels and stop pushing Shin away. I feel like i spend the half of the second season yelling at akira to stop breaking the relationship lol. I want to see there relationship as a real couple now for season 3.
8/10 Love it but some stuff I didn't like Obviously I'm going to tell you right now, the age gap was so weird. When I first started watching, it was very hard to watch because I could not stop thinking about the fact that the age gap was 18 and 30. Also in the beginning I got a lot of second hand embarrassment. It was good though. I didn't have much of a problem with the rest of it though. I got a lot of butterflies and even though it was a huge slow burn, but I really enjoyed watching it. I haven't watched the second series yet but I'm hoping more well romantic things happen in it if you know what I mean. And I'd love to see more of the second couple as well! Anyway overall a great BL.
7110 Call Him Yuki Already! This is not the first Japanese BL series about actors and film making. But this is the first one which digs deeper into the film making factor. And the knowledge about it makes the plot even more interesting. The acting was decent, the plot was straight forward without any major plot twist and it has a happy ending. There's only a simple plot twist which can already be successfully guessed by the audience at least I did). The main leads developed a great chemistry, although when it comes to the intimate scenes, something was missing. The story was sweet and enjoyable, although there's something that's still bothering me till the end. Why Asami kept calling him Shirasaki-kun, when Yuki already called him by his first name? In my opinion, this is one of the many things that made things a little awkward.
8/10 Surprisingly Enjoyable Honestly, I went into Battle of the Writers with pretty low expectations because of the low rating but I didn't bother reading the negative reviews. To my surprise, I actually ended up enjoying it! It's a light, easy-to-watch romance with a touch of comedy. If you're just looking to relax without getting emotionally wrecked, this is a great pick. It's heartwarming, cute, and has a calm vibe, not a complicated or heavy series at all. I especially liked Shan and Ob-aun's backstory and how it ties into the main plot. Also, I really appreciated the scenes where they brought their own novel to life, short but creative, and their wuxia costumes were on point! Visually, the cinematography was beautiful and the OST was chef's kiss. Tutor and Yim's chemistry? Still as strong as ever. If you've seen them in other series, you know what I mean. The side couples also had really good chemistry, which made the show even more fun to watch. Ob-aun's flirty little daydreams were adorable, and once he and Shan became a couple, their non-stop flirting had me giggling like a crazy. I watched the uncut version, and it was spicier than I expected. Too many kisses and NC. Speaking of NC, it felt natural and not cringey or forced at all, which I appreciated. Don't let the bad reviews turn you off. Just try the first few episodes and decide for yourself. Sure, the writing isn't perfect, and yeah, there are some cheesy parts, but overall it kept me entertained. That said this series has no big drama, no villains, no stressful or unnecessary plot twists-it's just a feel-good series. I enjoy action-packed dramas too, but sometimes, I'm just in the mood for something mellow and sweet like this. Maybe I'm just not a harsh critic, or maybe I'm easy to please, but for me, this was definitely watchable, way more than some shows I've rated 5 or below (feel free to check out my other reviews if you're curious 00). However, there were a few things I noticed: some early episodes had unnecessary flashbacks, and there was this round table scene where the camera kept circling and made me dizzy-l had to skip it. Also, some of the makeup was a bit much but their outfits were stylish, so I'll let that slide. The title is kind of misleading. I thought it would be an actual battle of the writers, or maybe an enemies-to-lovers plot, but nope, they're all working on the same BL novel. Still, it turned out to be a pretty solid watch.
10/10 | laugh and crying in every episode I read the manga first, then I watch this.. It is look similarly with it's manga.. The casts are doing great acting.! watching this till episode 9, and till I wrote this, I dont know how much episode do they have. But I hope it should be long story series. But unfortunately, the duration is arround 25-30 mins only per episode. But so far, it is quitely touching.. They don't showing any nudity or even sensual activity.. Literally love story between 2 boys, where they complement each other. The boys are super kawaiiii, and their acting seems so natural. Not only romantic, also the comedy is good.. I hope it can be shown in netflx.
Seriously, the series is a masterpiece, the characters are amazing, the interaction between them is amazing, and Om's acting is 10/10 as usual. Ling is amazing. He's very handsome, and his acting is very beautiful, literally, actually. I have been enjoying this series for a while now and look forward to watching it every Friday. I'm currently obsessed with the duo. They are my favorite duo now. The series, in terms of story and acting, is very wonderful, and the atmosphere of the series is enjoyable, from sadness to extreme joy. I highly recommend watching the series, you will not regret it. My passion has truly returned. I love Om and Ling very much.
8/10 Kiss You At The Blossom This is the first BL Wu Xia series that I've ever watched. If I had to compare its fighting scenes to other Wu Xia series, then I'd say that this series is lacking in that department. The fighting choreography was not good, especially with the main actor. You can see that he's not really good with martial arts just by looking at his movements. As for the visuals, it's really good. The plot is also very straight forward, it's not hard to follow. The acting was decent, from most actors anyway. Personally, I think that Leslie Li's acting was too stiff. I mean, there's a difference between a tsundere character and a wooden statue. Just because he had to play an icy cold person, doesn't mean he had to be expressionless while getting stabbed in the shoulder. Maybe he needs to take more acting classes.
10/10 Cast and Performance Only friends is about complex relationship and toxic red flag persons and their personality which leads to the interwined storyline with each other. Plainly the story is good. The screenplay is good. Boston is not the Boston we knew back then. Whatever I am not hyping the storyline. The only thing I want to speak is about the Cast. It is not easy for the actors to express complex roles but actors are really amazing. EarthMix are such a nice choice to be in the position to lead the show. They are amazing actors. JossGawin has their own story moving in good path until Boston came back. Three of them are also very expressive in the manner it needs to be. I was amazed by AouBoom. They are fabulous and Fantastic. Boom's role is not easy. He has to show pressure from his mom, the expectations. He has to declare he likes Jack while having a kind of relationship with Rome, has to fight with Dean. Honestly AouBoom impressed me a more. Aou is doing the serious role. It is his charm. He is showing different personalities from his past roles too. The actors and their acting are really amazing enough to hook up with the show till the end.
7110 | Saw You In My Premonition This BL series falls into the supernatural genre which focusing more on the romance side. The plot is straight forward and not being dragged out too much. There are several little twists along the series, but nothing major. The acting was decent, for most actors anyway. The ending was also satisfying, so there's no need to worry about sad or bad ending. My only complaint is just that sometimes it's unclear if the events being shown to the audience were dreams or reality. And it makes the audience confused sometimes, at least until the main character wakes up. They should've made the dreams more obvious, that way no one will get confused.
10/10 Welcome to the bi world Halooo my trainee You are a wonderful experience to me.like I never expect.cooking crush is so bad I thought you are also bad .but the reality make me realize a good filim maker can make a master piece. Your a very good experience for me The vishual was amazing The cast look fit together Story decently good. Lot of things going to happened Offgun is their gm tv The power couple of gmmtv. But still their is are lot to watch. Honestly speaking its just a first episode. I need to waite for more episode to under stand you l just love The first episode its eppo adorable looking forward to the episodes that going to happened soon.
At first because of the visuals of the actors, I thought it would be boring to watch - An old guy falling in love with young guy.
But dang !!!
I was wrong. And good that I was wrong.
It is such a brrath of fresh air. I loved this series.
It's about a younger man with a long cherished crush on his boss (ten years older and going through a mid life crisis who decides to save and seduce said man with pancakes.
It's wholesome, comforting, sexy, and a very necessary narrative about still having hope, interests, and openness to affection at any age. It's coming of age/queerness packaged in a subtle critique of expectations around masculinity and love and loneliness... and it's beautiful.
MUST WATCH!!

Oooh, boy, this one could have turned out depressing and dark. But it's not. It's a gentle story of two gentle souls who break up because of a misunderstanding and fall in love again. The production is calm and dreamy and you drift through it like through a beautiful dream.

"I will follow you.

Heartbreak, hurt, fears, insecurities, and learning to trust again are the tropes of this series. And, oh, does it do them justice!
I felt every heartbreak.
Every past memory hit right where it hurts.
Their love is simply mesmerizing to me.
This series also underlines how hard it is true grand trust again after having been hurt that badly before.

There were just so many things to love about this show.

The plot is also very straight forward, it's not hard to follow. The acting was decent, from most actors anyway. Personally, I think that Leslie Li's acting was too stiff. I mean, there's a difference between a tsundere character and a wooden statue. Just because he had to play an icy cold person, doesn't mean he had to be expressionless while getting stabbed in the shoulder. Maybe he needs to take more acting classes.
Only friends is about complex relationship and toxic red flag persons and their personality which leads to the interwined storyline with each other. Plainly the story is good. The screenplay is good. Boston is not the Boston we knew back then. Whatever I am not hyping the storyline. The only thing I want to speak is about the Cast. It is not easy for the actors to express complex roles but actors are really amazing.
EarthMix are such a nice choice to be in the position to lead the show. They are amazing actors. JossGawin has their own story moving in good path until Boston came back. Three of them are also very expressive in the manner it needs to be.
I was amazed by AouBoom. They are fabulous and Fantastic.
Boom's role is not easy. He has to show pressure from his mom, the expectations. He has to declare he likes Jack while having a kind of relationship with Rome, has to fight with Dean. Honestly AouBoom impressed me a more. Aou is doing the serious role. It is his charm. He is showing different personalities from his past roles too.
The actors and their acting are really amazing enough to hook up with the show till the end.
This BL series falls into the supernatural genre which focusing more on the romance side. The plot is straight forward and not being dragged out too much. There are several little twists along the series, but nothing major. The acting was decent, for most actors anyway. The ending was also satisfying, so there's no need to worry about sad or bad ending. My only complaint is just that sometimes it's unclear if the events being shown to the audience were dreams or reality. And it makes the audience confused sometimes, at least until the main character wakes up. They should've made the dreams more obvious, that way no one will get confused.
Halooo my trainee You are a wonderful experience to me.like I never expect.cooking crush is so bad I thought you are also bad .but the reality make me realize a good filim maker can make a master piece.
