i loved this. it felt too real. the issues were delicately portrayed. i didnât understand why everyone was so mad about itsukiâs character and why the rating is so low tbh. every episode felt intentional with the messages it wanted to convey. beautifully shot, beautifully acted, it did hurt nonetheless. i loved the ost as well. Japan is really creating some compelling and real stories about lgbtq people.
i wouldnât have watched this if it wasnât for takahashi issei. the story was alright but it was so cheesy and cringe for the most part. i wanna see issei be in more dramas that are more grounded like koisenu futari. he really outshines those roles.
honestly after Unknown, this story felt like something was missing. i liked the location and scenery but something felt off. the fantasy element was cool. like most comments the second couple were very cute. but yeah this was a little disappointing. i liked the guest appearances though.
im not mad about this show. it is beautifully shot and acted etc. BUT the actual story felt like grief porn in a A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara kinda way ifykyk.
honestly after ep 8, this show could go on forever and ever and i would not complain i just wanna be a part of these lesbianâs lives. representation like this, outside of just romance and drama is so so important. a community of like minded strong friends especially for lgbtq folks is so needed!
this show is so special!!! this was one of the shows from the 2025 lineup that i was truly waiting for and im not disappointed to say the least. they really took their time with this one. and im so glad perthsanta got cast as leads for this project because they can really showoff their acting skills. everything from production, set design, story pacing, acting, sensitivity to issues is 10/10, no notes.
can i just say that the actress that plays Mata, is so good!!! her expressions especially in that scene at the end of ep 2 after the fire was breathtaking.
im just watching this for pearlpeak and the iconic lakorn vibes. but since ep 1 the story feels quite predictable. the uncle is clearly the one who put the dad in a coma, and also wrote that fake letter to get kaysornâs mom to go to bangkok. i am just wondering if the mom died (got killed) or is alive somewhere. also kinda confused as to how they are gonna extract the perfume since it only emanates from emotion/love it looks like. and once kaysorn realizes that he is being betrayed by scent, there goes the fragrance. this isnât like they can take his blood to concoct his scent or something. 8 eps is really too short. i wish we got dmd series style length so they could build the story slower. i hope pearlpeak keep working together in many more projects together. they are great actors and have excellent chemistry.
i donât think iâve ever rated a show (BL or not) a 10/10. but this one became a 10 early on and stayed that way all the way through. im so glad i watched this đđ
