I do love how Jin is curious and not totally shutting Bbomb out. But this one is getting harder and harder for me to watch. Too many side characters that don't have enough personality, so I can't keep them all straight. Too many scenes that do not progress the story. Random dialogue about nothing (I don't care who's going home for the holiday.) Or dialogue that negates itself. "I wanna sleep. Let's go have dinner." I'll give it one more week but I may end up dropping this one. It's a shame. Jin is so cute.
I read the "Don't ever leave me" in the rain as Pi's genuine call for a friend, because friendship is what he's…
Yeah. I think that’s what they were going for. I just think Don’t Leave Me wasn’t the right way to say all that. And I have to say, I HATE the whole disease/vaccine dialogue. If anyone ever said something like that to me, I’d vomit. But then again, I’m not a teen girl.
I wasn’t expecting the about face with Pi deciding to go after Nan again. After Ep 6 where Pi breaks down and says “Don’t ever leave me”, I took it as him finally giving up, giving in and accepting Mork. Then they spend a sweet date together and then back to square one. I understand Pi is conflicted, fearful, but they made it seem like he had finally given himself over to Mork so this felt untrue to the character’s evolution. And how can he ever complain when he abandons Mirk less than 24 hours after he says Don’t Leave Ne! But a minor complaint.
I agree completely with your comment! I think that Mork is using the pushy, affectionate method, though, because…
I agree with all of you. I've never had a problem with Pi because his real emotions were always so evident underneath the bluster. You can tell (and Mork can tell) that Pi is just arguing because he's covering his confusion/insecurities. He's not being rude because he's a jerk, he simply doesn't know how to deal with this attention. This is probably the first real, honest affection he's ever experienced and he doesn't trust it... or trust himself about it.
For the most part, I enjoyed this series. There were a lot of elements that really annoyed me or made me angry, but some of that was intended by the creators. But while it tried to be self-aware, it failed 50% of the time and relied on the same tropes and cliches it tried to criticize. What’s really fascinating is that a series that aims to expose the darker side of the BL industry and pretends to celebrate a MM relationship, chooses to make a gay man the villain of the series. So even when others are taking advantage of the MC it’s gays who do the most damage and deserve the most wrath. LBGTQIA+ writers need to take over this industry.
Strongest episode yet. Phuwin is best when he is real and not being forced to overreact. That final line, "Just don't leave me" said so much. I give up. I give myself to you. I need you. I will let you be the one. It's a cliche trope but it got me right where it counts this time. Looking forward to the next evolution of this relationship. - I'm dying to know what Louis is like outside this character. He plays the naif very well, but I'm sure he's nothing like this.
Tell me... am I the only one finding the series a chore to watch after EP 8? What to do???? eeek!
I wouldn't say it's a chore, but it feels like a different series than what we started with. The tone and pacing (and even the OST) is very different. Did they decide to go in a different direction mid-stream?
Can't finish. When you only have 6 episodes, please don't waste time on scenes like a lunch with friends that has no purpose (the MC literally had 2 bites and then left and no one else had even eaten), followed by a dinner with Mom that has no purpose other than to talk about the cake.
Also, please stop with endless dialogue exchanges likes I'll drive you home No I'll walk No I'll drive you No I'll walk No I'll drive you....
That tells us ZERO about the characters, the relationship and wastes what little time you have.
Finally, I know this is a Boys Love series, but when every female is shallow and obsessed only with shipping (The boys talk about university, the girls talk about how handsome someone is).you send a horrible message to young girls.
I think they were meant to be complete idiots, not mocking Sikhs. If anyone took that as a serious depiction of…
I'm offended for all minorities that are inaccurately portrayed, stereotyped and most especially shown in negative fashion for "comedy". Racism is not funny.

The implication is that the boys think Sikh men would start a fight. If the boys think this, the writer thinks this. It tells the audience to think that. We can agree to disagree. Comedy is subjective, as are our perceptions of others.
