First impression
Really strong start. It reminds me a lot of the Japanese series Jack o' Frost. I like the acting, and also the quality of the series itself is pretty good.But yeah, so far, so good—a little bit sad, a little bit cute; hopefully it will be able to keep its momentum.
Where to watch: https://wetv.vip/en/album/z8grnsk4uhwvfb0
Things I liked:
1. Great acting.
2. The main character's boyfriend is extremely understanding and accommodating.
Things I disliked:
1. Communication skills at both the age of 19 and the age of 29 are so terrible, from both the main character and his boyfriend.
2. I don't particularly like the barista who works at the main character's sister's cafe. He is too flirty, in my opinion, for just some barista, especially since I am 100% sure he knows the main character has a boyfriend of 7 years.
3. Main character. I know that it's probably mostly because of his memory loss, but he keeps acting like a 10-year-old brat, and it really pisses me off.

You can watch it on iQIYI: https://www.iq.com/album/your-third-2026-2aoejlaowv9?lang=en_usSo far i'm not the biggest fan of this series, it is alright, but I really expected something more. It is just another comedy series, and I genuinely find it upsetting that they once again give MaxNat a series that is just alright. With a lot of comedic sounds that only make it worse and humor that is not actually funny, unfortunately.
Episode 1:
* I like that we got PeterFluke as an established couple.
* Another comedy series for MaxNat. I feel sort of disappointed, I really think they deserve a serious and more mature series.
* The mustache has got to go...
* The actor playing Taibao's father is really bad at acting; it feels like he is just reading stuff off the screen with the script.
Episode 2:
* I'm not sure about what is happening in this episode. They fight one second and then immediately become besties a few seconds later. Everything is a bit too confusing this episode.

You can watch it on GagaOOLala: https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/8378/duty-first-kiss-later-2026Japanese BLs just hit different sometimes, and this is definitely one of those times. Awesome acting and an interesting premise, I'm bought!
This series reminds me of another BL called "Love Is a Poison." Both have a similar vibe and have the storyline around law work.
Overall I really like it so far; I'm excited for more episodes.
Episode 1:
* It is so nice to see more mature Bls.
* I like the characters and the whole opposites attract thing. Takoi being a sweetheart older detective and Shiono being more of a blunt and straightforward kind of guy.
I sort of enjoy watching their bickering and little silent glances of microaggression.
* Most of the humor is pretty much typical Japanese humor with all of the exaggerated face expressions and that sort of stuff. Not bad or annoying necessarily, I just can never get used to them.
Episode 2:
* Yeah, Haruka got real creepy real fast. I'm never one to complain about a female side character who has feelings for one of the leads in BLs, but this one is just crazy.
Episode 3:
* I love seeing Heisuke slowly grow closer with Shiono.
Episode 4:
* When I first seen this series and learned that it's about police officers, I honestly thought it will be a bit more serious and have some crime and things of sorts mixed in. But after all, it is more of a lighthearted drama that is mostly focused on humor and romance, which I don't mind, but I do want more serious moments between them.
Maybe more of the work-related things: Takoi and Shiono working together on a case, especially with the whole good cop/bad cop they have going on.

Extremely hard to watch
I really tried to get into it because of all the good comments and reviews on this, but omg, I really hate it. I thought trying to fight through the first minutes would probably be rewarding in the end, but I couldn't even finish the first episode.The acting, if you can call whatever clown show they had in there that, was SO TERRIBLE, I'm not even joking.
The only reason I even started watching this series is because of the actor Tong. Since I saw him perform well in other series of his, I really had some expectations. And after reading all the reviews about how underrated this series is, I just had to give it a go.
Well, that was clearly a mistake. In the end, their so-called “acting” made my skin crawl from cringe. Unbearable watch, Pangpond's acting definitely pissed me off the most. Girl, what are you doing?
At this point it feels like the director was just BEGGING them to perform their worst and to act the cringiest they can.
Putting all that toxicity to the side, I truly believe that it could get better later on if you just sit through all the cringe. But I just couldn't do that, so if it really gets better later on, I would like to apologize for my outburst. I still am not watching that or giving it another chance though ;))
So yeah, not much else to say except for… Never again, I'm good on that.

I like it. It's a pretty good series. I really enjoy it so far, and I'm excited to see more. My eventual rating was 7.5 after the first episode, but I upped it to 8.5 after watching the second episode. It is definitely growing on me the more i watch.
Episode 1:
* Everything is happening pretty fast. I don't know how I feel about it.
* I like the contrast between the main characters and how they show their feelings.
* Those guys are disgusting. I really thought that if not friends, they at least were civil with Sui, but that couldn't be further from the truth. They had no right to out him in that way.
* I'm happy to see Harutora accepting Sui after all, especially with everything Sui had to go through before.
* Harutora trying to "become Sui's type" is weirdly adorable.
* And more fish kisses, eh... It is what it is, I guess.
Episode 2:
* Harutora is so down bad for Sui.
* Harutora really just wears his heart on his sleeve.
* I understand that Daiki is trying to be a good friend or whatever. But he just sounds mean, basically telling his friend to hide himself and to not trust anyone. So weird.
* Harutora finding a bathing place where he and Sui can go without Sui having to worry about other people is incredibly thoughtful of him. He is genuinely a giant green flag.
* So happy to see Harutora stand up for Sui.

It's a sweet and light-hearted story. Classic school JBL, I personally wouldn't consider it to be an overused trope because it is still really enjoyable to watch.It's nice to see Konishi Eito play in a BL again. For countries other than Thailand, it's pretty rare to see the same actors continuously film in BLs, but lately it's been happening more often, and i'm happy to see a change.
Episode 1-2:
* Nice and straight to the point, the name doesn't lie. On the topic of this, so far every Japanese BL with an insanely long name I've watched has been great.
* I've only seen Konishi Eito in BLs before, so I can't really know for sure if he is always like that. But his acting and the way he behaves just make me think he is just a hamster operating a human body.
* I like the friends, it's nice to see good supportive friends.
Episode 3:
* I really like Haru's brother, he seems like a really sweet and supportive older brother.

I like it so far, it is definitely not like other school BLs, and I like that about it. It's pretty good, but I'm not too crazy about it. Excited to see more though.Episode 1-2:
* I like the plot; it's pretty interesting and definitely stands out from other school JBLs.
* It's pretty funny, the humor is not cringy or annoying.

You can watch it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKSScKG6XtloIt's honestly great so far, the acting is good, I like the plot, and overall it's just giving a typical nice school BL.
Episode 1:
* The start was quite slow, but then it became much better, in my opinion, and I really liked how the episode ended.
* I love the characters that Sea and Keen are playing and the contrast between them. It feels a bit weird/unusual to see Sea playing more of a nerdy character, but he is definitely doing a great job so far, and I am definitely liking it.
Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this episode and am excited to see more.
Episode 2:
* Great episode. Not much to talk about here, but I really enjoyed it and want to see more.

You can watch it on GagaOOLala: https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/8455/your-sky-hare-nochi-koi-2026I really like it so far, this is one of those cases when a remake might just be better than the original.
Episode 1:
* I love the cast. All of the characters remind me a lot of their original.
* It is pretty similar to the original, but due to how short the episodes are, some moments are missing. Which, in my opinion, is for the best since I wasn't a fan of the slow pacing in the original.
Episode 2-3:
* I genuinely really enjoy it. Since it is shorter and the budget is definitely smaller, there are a lot of moments that are either fully cut out or altered, but I genuinely don't even mind it. I do sort of miss the football match, but other than that, they are doing an incredible job with what they have.
Episode 4:
* Episode about nothing. They are just wasting screentime on nonsense. The moment that was resolved within few minutes of screentime in the original was dragged out for ages, that was the worst episode so far in my opinion.

It is genuinely great. I didn't like the start at first, but I'm so happy I continued watching, as it really is not what it seems. I like the acting, and the visuals are also incredible.Episode 1:
* I absolutely am not a fan of them showing us the whole series in the first few minutes of the episode as an intro. (Now that I got to the point of the series that they showed at the start, I would like to take it back since it really wasnt what it seemed.)
* The way those girls won't back off even after Chiharu rejected the confession is so irritating. No means no, and he definitely did not owe them an explanation.
* That ending was so unexpected but not in a bad way. Now I'm definitely excited to see how it will continue.
Episode 2:
* I really like the cinematography of this series.
* This episode has some really beautiful views.
Episode 3:
* The classic "We actually met before when we were kids."
This one, though, is a bit more interesting since the main character thinks it was a girl.
* This episode made me wonder more about Chiharu's childhood.
Episode 4:
* Honestly, Chiharu moving to Canada was a crazy surprise. I genuinely didn't expect something like that to happen closer to the end of the series.
Episode 5:
* Genuinely a heartbreaking episode.
* I definitely didn't expect that, but I'm guessing the last half of the series will be with Wataru and Chiharu being adults. Which is honestly a great switch to the usual school BLs; it's nice to see main leads grow up and see their life together as adults.
Episode 6:
* I just love Wataru's friends so much, they are so supportive and are there for him when needed. They are such great friends.
* I am so excited to watch more now that I know that the rest of the series is about the main leads relationship as adults after Chiharu comes back from Canada. That was unexpected but honestly a really good plot twist.
* After the first episode I really thought that I figured it all out, and so I wasn't a fan of it. And I ended up putting it on hold, but I'm so happy I came back because this series is actually incredible.
Episode 7-9:
* I don't think Chiharu will actually go back to Canada, but at the same time why would he go to the meeting about it? I'm worried for their relationship if it's going to end up being the case, but all we can do is wait and see.
* Chiharu's college friend Akiyoshi definitely has a crush on him. Which honestly makes me worried about Akiyoshi potentially trying to get between Wataru and Chiharu.

Dissapointing
GagaOOLala: https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/6645/unexpectedly-naughty-fukami-2026Just plainly bad, doesn't make any sense, and overall is just a big, big disappointment.
Watching this nonsense felt like watching someone spit into the pool of all so many great japanese BLs.
And people who made this have A LOT of work to do if they plan on producing BL's ever again.

Episode 1:Incredible so far, I had low expectations for this drama, but it definitely is much better than expected. Great acting, beautiful visuals, and a really interesting and engaging storyline.
So far there are some things that I am confused about, but that only makes me more interested and invested in future episodes.
Episode 2:
I like Song Haneul, he is a nice ray of sunshine in such series.
Even though I understand the "prosecutor's" point and his reasons to act the way he does, I still think he can be a bit more civil while talking to the main character.
His way of coping with everything is definitely not the best.

You can watch it on IQIYI: https://www.iq.com/play/knot-episode-1-c3hbjhxtcg?lang=en_us?lang=en_usPretty good start, better than expected. I am really interested so far due to there being a miserable number of omegaverse series. I'd say that from what I've seen, they have done the best with portraying the omegaverse world in a BL series.
After all of the Run's slop series, I just really hope this one is his redemption arc.
Episode 1:
* I like the Boat's haircut in this series.
* The main character being 20+ and not knowing what secondary gender is while clearly living in an omegaverse world is a bit bizarre to me.
* Not the biggest fan of the special effects so far, but it's not too bad.
* I like that the main character has some "character" to him, because people often portray omegas somewhat childish, weak, etc.
* The text on the screen every time they introduced a new character made me laugh at first. I'm sure there is a better way to show information about them without making it this whole thing.
* I was getting confused at first due to the number of characters. Especially with most of them being introduced the first few minutes.
* The end of the first episode was too coincidental, in my opinion. Surely there are a hundred other ways they could've met for the first time.
Episode 2:
* I find it weird how Nakhun's mother looks younger than her kids, while the father looks quite old.
* Nakhin kissing Phatsa's friend/brother (?) while he was in distress, crying and fighting, was absolutely uncalled for, especially since that was their first time meeting.
Episode 3:
* Phatsa being extremely defensive any time someone calls him Nakhun's partner genuinely gets on my nerves.
Episode 4:
* Phatsa acting like a child about what Nakhun did in the bathroom and the fact that he slept with other people before is ridiculous.
* I like that Nakhin took responsibility for his actions as well as acknowledged that what he did was wrong and apologized.
Episode 5-6:
* Phatsa has incontinence in his judgment. In one episode he fights Naphitch and tells him he will serve his food to dogs, and in another episode he invites him to the table with a smile and gets upset when Nakhin and Nakhun aren't friendly with their brother.
* With all of the drama currently happening, getting pregnant shouldn't even be in their top 100 things to do, but oh well...
Episode 7:
* Not only am I not surprised Phatsa is not pregnant, but I am also extremely happy about it. Him getting pregnant right now would only make everything worse in my opinion.
* Nakhun's father is extremely hypocritical and needs to take a nice long look in the mirror before opening his mouth and barking at everyone around him.
Episode 8:
* Not much worth mentioning has happened this episode, but I'm definitely suspicious of Amintra's assistant, Kingyok.
