I mean, is too early to judge it but from the first episode... is on the bad till just bearable side of the bl ranking.

That's the case on some websites but i saw the episodes on facebook subbed in Spanish and they were full 45 minutes. Look around to hopefully find the full ones, they are not 15 minutes.

Really looking forward to this one!!! The first movie was really cute and tastefully made, but it ended at the beggining of their love, and i always love when we are able to explore the relationship so... this is a total win for me!!!

Agree, plenty of bl actors are kinda rookies and if so, they only have one or two series under their belts so i don't expect them to have Edward Northon/Leo Dicaprio acting skills and i cut them some slack. I wasn't really bother by his acting till this episode, i felt that the angry moments were a bit too much of a cringy fest and he had weird facial expresions. Maybe he has to work more on those emotions but overall i'm ok with his acting and is true, him and his promo are carrying the series and ratings.

Funny how the episode where both couples kissed is the episode that i'm more disapointed with.
Let's see if they can pick it up later on.

Specially the sequel is not for everyone in terms of plot, basically because it breaks with the fairytale more often than not unrealistic bl world, but for me is an accurate representation of a teen love that has to deal with the world spining around and see if it pass the test of time and becomes end game. But, being a fan of that or not, those 2 series are a masterpiece in every sense, from production, to direction, photography... quality out the charts. Totally recommended if you ask me :)

This is what i call a predictable GOOD teen bl. Cannot wait for everything that we know will happen to happen.
Korea here stepping up the bl game, and thank god because i am feeling like we are on a slump after IPYTM ended. I need a pick me up even if still cannot match what Nadao made me feel with their series.

I'll riot if the do. It's bl, and i don't think that they'll change that, stil keep in mind that this is Japan.

I did watch it with Spanish subs, since i speak both languages and the person that did the Spanish ones popped up on my Facebook.
There are no legal subs for this other other than fansubs.

Now for the subs controversy. If there was a legal and from the source option i would really think about it. I do pay for some subscriptions, Nadao productions, Gameboys the movie... and so on, but not gonna lie i do watch some things illegally as well, i wanna support the things that i love as much as i can tho.
NOW, about that person subbing it on his patreon and making you pay a subscription for it... is still piratery. It wouldn't be if the source did gave him the rights, but this way is still an illegal source and even if yes, he does a legit work, is still taking anothers work without paying the right amount for the rights to be distributed by himself so he can profit from it.
I feel way worse when reactors have a patreon and the content that the productions don't allow them to react to (mostly because they have their own channels or ways to make a profit from their hard work and pay the entire thing back and gain enough so they can still produce more series or movies) is there but you pay the reactors instead of the people that worked on it. Reactors already can make a profit from their youtube channel adsense, and they could make videos of them discusing the series or other new content so if they wanna be paid for their actual work, they can.
Is quite a tricky situation. And now is up to us to decide if we are ok with it, wanna support in any way, or not.

Just binged the 11 episodes that are already out. This has some ups and downs. Not gonna lie, is not a quality bl, the storyline is a bit messy and some plots and progressions make no sense. But it has something, i truly die with the comedic scenes, with the sing alone or to each others like if this was a musical... Those are so abrupt, absurd and they are so out of tune that is hilariously funny.
I take it for what it its, a funny nonsense with some cute and sweet scenes that make the bl worth it for a quick watch without investing too much on it or looking for a really deep and quality stuff. Looking forward to the last episode.

Still in my top 5 of kdramas. This was the point of inflexion for me, after Hello Monster others felt flat and i decreased the quantity that i watch. Never miss a Seo In Guk one tho.

Watched the full episode 5 in around 5 minutes. I don't feel like i missed anything.

I'm not happy about this bls making me hate my entire gender 99% of the time. I'm not claming the women here and they are not welcome in my queer household. We have enough with the mainstream girls being constantly men shadows and oversexualized, we don't need this stereotyped evil ones here all the time.

Now after my rant, i liked this short series, a few tropes but cute ones. I think it was well done and i always love me some retro vibes. Also, loved the shirt kind of kinda not moment, it was cute and emotional. The story overall was a plausible, sweet & sour comming of age.

Maybe it was the music plot, the bittersweet ending, the mom arc... It got me back to my first thai bl/queer movie, Love Of Siam. As much as i love happy endings and this type of sour ones get my heart broken the most, i still love them in a twisted masochistic way.
I would gladly devour a 2 season with a happy ending, even knowing that usually they are not on pair with 1 seasons, Nadao gave me hope and i am a hopeless romantic when it comes to fiction, specially when it's about my queer fam.

Damn, first, thank you to Taiwanfunan for the subs, secondly, this is going directly to my trash can. They played us, no bl and there is actually not even a gay character. The series itself is bad, starting from the format, the writting, the pacing... 1/10.

You are a total bl warrior then haha.

Fr, is clearly a syndrome worth to be studied. I don't have all this patience and high tolerance for anything else haha

Jesus, why i do this to myself... And the worst part is that i know i will finish this show (surely skipping all the time but still).

Totally with you! Even when i was watching it the comments were full of people rooting for them, why would you as a production company see all the hype and not give it a go? I wasn't a hardcore fan of The Vampire Diaries but watching the first seasons it was the same in the sense that everyone could feel and wanted the FL with the 2 guy, and ended up being end game. I had hopes for this to be similar, that after meeting other people they will end up seeing what we all saw. Too bad that, if they ever pick up this project again, it would be at least 1 season without that happening. Oh well, i guess that, at least for now, we can only make it happen in our heads or reading a fanfic if there's any... still bitter though haha

Oh you are talking about God. I remember how huge all that became back then.
For me, is not that i will actively hate on them or disregard every project that they are in, not at all, i'm totally going to watch this and hope to love it, but i just simply won't consider myself a fan of someone that says things like that, as a joke or as something that they think, specially if you don't reflect on it later on. Let's see.
For me, if your reasons are that you don't like the BL industry and don't wanna work in it (because yes, probably there is a lot of shit under the carpet), there are other ways to say it, you can be straigh about the issues the particular industry has, you can be evading and end things nicely, you can clarify that is not because of the sexuality of the characters but other reasons... but is not necesary to say things that can be hurtful specially for members of the community that already deal with that and worse on a daily and felt mocked and downgraded.
That's why i brought Saint to the conversation, because him being in a very similar situation, opted to say that he will not decide based on the sexuality of the character. He may as well never act on a BL again for whatever reasons, but his ways were respectful and normalized a bit that you can act as a gay character, as a trans (he did a cameo in few episodes of a lakorn, not bl) and as an hetero, acting is just acting at the end of the day.

And looks like they will only let us watch Love Area 6 months later... weird
