Can someone please spoil me ? In the novel, what happened that night after Nuea had his hand in Toh's pants ? They kissed and Toh admitted he dreamed of such situation. I'm curious to know what happened after that? Did they just kiss ? Did they exchange handjob? Did they spend the night together? I need to know lol.
I'm here, barely breathing but still alive! I swear I've never screamed so much while watching a BL. Through the episode I was giggling, blushing and finally crying when they confessed. This series is making me act over the top, just like its characters lol. But let's discuss the scene where Nuea had his hand in Toh's pants! I mean, they interrupted the scene just like that but I need to know what happened after! What did they do?! Lol.
This is how Boys Love series' should be. Everyone is just real life normal. No weird acting lady boys being coupled…
Can't believe your post has 11 likes...There's no "BL should be like this" because BL is a genre in which you find diversity in stories : over the top shenanigans like Secret Crush On You, romcom like Bad Buddy and Lovely Writer, detective such as Manner of Death and so on. BL was never about depicting real lives of the gay community. If you want that you can watch LGBTQ movies and series. Of course BL has evolve nowadays and we can find all the example I cited above and we should support more diverse productions but really there's no need to bash a whole genre based on your wrong knowledge of its origin and characteristics.
bro what?! i do agree that theres some weird bits in bl concepts that we ignore that need to change but dude the…
No my dude, BL was never about real life! It was written by women for women and it was far from reality : the set up, the over the top characterization etc. So don't come here juging a genre you obviously don't know about.
The ending was anticlimactic like huh!...the episode started very strong and then in a blink of an eye, they got…
I don't like this series for all the reasons you pointed out. I understand the topic is new in BL but for someone who's into activism and politics the repetitive dialogues about freedom & corruption weren't new nor well written (it always felt like lectures). If we set aside the topic that was engaging to many fans, the plot and pacing weren't great. As someone who likes serious series/movies to be nearly flawless, I found too many flaws in Not Me. While it's a good series, I don't believe it's a masterpiece like fans are stating. Unfortunately, you can't tell them that or you'be stone...
i think the people hating on this show focus too much on the first episode it was extreme in the beginning but…
Exactly, that's what I've been saying too : Nuea loves making Toh drool over him. He's the one initiating every lustful interaction with Toh. There's no victim in this relationship.
That's it guys, I'm done. I hate dropping shows, especially when we're close to the end but I can't anymore. I have no interest watching AkkTheo's staring contest. At this point I'm so embarrassed I can't look at them anymore. I don't get any satisfaction watching Enchanté so I'm bowing out. I'll come later to read your opinions on the ending :-)
Oooh, i only saw one person commenting about not liking how effeminate Toh was, have there been more? Thank God…
I've seen at least 10 comments like that. They say they don't like Toh because he's too creepy and then they add he's too effeminate... I bet if he was manly they would love him more, same way they like Nuea even though he's a creep in his own way lol.
The comments section didn't pass the vibe check... "Toh is too effeminate! I don't like that!" So what, effeminate guys shouldn't be seen on tv? They don't deserve to be main character?! Sad how some of you watch BL but are homophobic.
I love this series but for the first time, I was annoyed with NueaToh in episode 5. While I love them and their interaction are hilarious, it's becoming repetitive: Nuea initiates a sexy encounter with Toh, Toh is over the moon and being creepy, Nuea puts a stop to it and acts like he doesn't see Toh perving on him. Rinse and repeat. I can understand Toh's pov because of his (psychological) issues (lack of self-esteem and obsessive behaviour) but at this point I can't get behind Nuea's attitude. He knows Toh likes him and wants him sexually. He manipulates Toh to obtain what he wants (spending time with Toh, watching Toh lust over him) so what is he waiting for? He should confess his feelings! He told Sky he's now sure of his feelings for Toh. That's good but did he need to play Toh like that in order to test his theory? Also, the misunderstanding after the kiss wasn't needed since he should know now Toh is interested in him. I swear I want to slap them hard! One is all in his head and the other one is being a coward...
To those criticizing Toh creepiness and saying Nuea deserves better, are you even watching the series? You can't even see Nuea is as bad as Toh. The two are creepy in their own way. Toh is an obsessive stalker and Nuea is narcissist and manipulative. Don't you see Nuea is always the one initiating their encounter and creating situation in which Toh is going to perv on him? You might not like Toh but let's be honest, Nuea isn't better than him, they both deserve each other lol.
I called it since episode 2! I quite liked the series even if it was lacking but the explanations given in episode 7 don't make sense at all. The plot is so makjang it's laughable...
Another tedious episode to watch. I'm trying, I really do... We know Akk likes Theo because we see it every episode, but what about Theo ? He's not a great friend to Akk, he's not showing romantic behaviour towards him (meaning he's not boyfriend material) so I'm wondering why Akk likes him. Did they keep in touch during all these years? I don't think so. Akk's feelings come from childhood memories. But is it enough to build a romance? This setup worked in Lovely Writer because Sib kept tabs on Gene during the years. Then while they worked and lived together, Gene felt in love with Sib and Sib's feelings went from childhood crush to adult love. In Enchanté, they waste so much time with the 4 ambassadors instead of showing us Theo's (developing) feeling for Akk. Another thing they could have done is giving Akk a life! Who is he apart from being Theo's friend ? Does he have other friends ? What does he like? What does he do in his free time when he's not following Theo ? Same goes for Theo : he likes reading and speaks bad french but what else? They're students but we never see them in classes though 90% of the story happens in the university premises... The characters have no depth. The whole plot feels like a gimmick to get to the ending with no care for the journey to get there. It seems the writers were more interested in the story's idea (harem plot, who is enchanté, main character coming from abroad...) but didn't think through the execution.
