If all you can do is criticize the kissing scenes, then just shut up. This is even worse. It's embarrassing. The…
Yes, they’re doing their jobs and I thought they did a bad one. So... What exactly is your point? You’re the one living in a fantasy world if you think actors are above criticism. They’re supposed to be college students. I liked the banter and flirting, but that kiss was a childish mess that looked like a dare they both regretted accepting. Bad direction, inexperience, whatever. This was supposed to make me believe they wanted each other and it made me feel the opposite. It supposed to be a romance. Right?! Surely looking like they actually want to kiss each other isn’t asking too much. But I’m not going to make excuses for a half-baked show. I also criticised the plot, which you’d know if you’d bothered to read the comments before telling me to shut up. You liked it? Fine. I didn’t and I don’t need your permission to say so. You’re telling a stranger to shut up over a BL review, and somehow I’m the embarrassing one? Get real.
Damn really? I was gonna start but the comments are telling me it's not promising...
It did looked promising... The leads are gorgeous, the banter, the flirting on the first two episodes were working and was fluffy. But the plot hadn’t done anything for me up to that point and the above mentioned kiss crumbled everything to the ground. There is nothing left. Don’t take my word for it, though. Be my guest and see for yourself.
Dropped. Istg, I will drop every bl where the actors are disgusted to kiss each other. If they can't kiss, don't force them. It'sf*cking embarrassing. Please, stop. I can't unwatch that and I don't want that on my screen again. It felt like abuse. Oh god...
This one should be called Bromance - The Reality. For heaven's sake, I got nothing. This looks more like a Boy's Scout collecting merits mockumentary than anything BL related. The hype faded very quickly. I´ll put this on hold and bingewatch eventualy, but the two first episodes did not sold the show for me.
The AI use is jarring and absolutely unecessary. "Telling" sometimes works better than "showing". And those animated AI flashbacks are icky and cringe.
It would put me off completelly if the story and the Main Leads chemestry and skills were not that good (the kissing is textbook chinese tho). An edited cut without the AI would improve the production imho.
That being said and out of the way, I am in love Nie Chuan, he is one of my favorite characters of the year. #niechuansavestheworld
If you made it through Double Helix, you are good with this one. This one, at least, does not fool you with lovey dovey couples at the start. From the begining EVERYTHING IS FUCKED. You got nothing, you are as clueless as the main caracther. For now you are with TWO questions: WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? and WHYYYYYYYYYYY!?
Moth suposed to be be the uptight, but fell first and harder for the sluty player Dean in the first episode? Those characters don't have my respect. Nobody to root for here. Call me if get any good by the end.
No hate. Junt venting. Dropped on the second episode. Every character who showed up until that point were incredibly annoying. Sorry. Taiwan can do much better than this silly mess.
There are so many BLs where both brothers are gay 😂 If you like toxic and red flag characters, I recommend…
Some really bold move to recommend Double Helix to someone watching this FR. 😂😂. It's like the oposite side of the spectrum; the lowest depths of the iceberg in the genre.
Wow! What a breath of fresh air. Those familiar with the Thai version will notice there was not a second wasted here with side quests and fat fillings. Just straight to the point. The casting here does not disapoint: the plot suits the japanese acting style (underreacting x overreacting) very well. So far, so good.

And that's the first 2 episodes. I am hooked.
