Essa série é perfeita! Um roteiro bem escrito, com cenas que valorizam os personagens e suas personalidades em uma jornada significativa de amadurecimento. O papel de Seeiw foi perfeito para Earth, que me fez apaixonar pelo coração gentil e empático de Seeiw e Santa me conquistou com seu charme de garoto atrevido. Earth e Santa possuem uma química natural e conseguiram desenvolver um relacionamento envolvente. A série soube dosar na medida certa romance, drama, comédia, nos oferecendo lições de vida valiosas. Amei a maneira como Cake confessa seu amor com uma mensagem poderosa: "Eu serei gay com você porque eu te amo muito", enfatizando que é o amor que os une e que não considera um "problema" o fato de Seeiw ser gay. Cake queria que o mundo soubesse que eles eram namorados e alterou seu status no Facebook quase que imediatamente. Ele nunca tentou esconder o romance de amigos ou familiares e aos poucos vai encorajando o tímido Seeiw a se aceitar como gay, orgulhando-se do seu amor com demonstrações públicas de afeto. A maturidade de Cake me surpreendeu. Amo que Seeiw e Cake tenham uma rede de apoio maravilhosa em seus familiares e amigos. As cenas em que tanto a mãe moribunda e Long Pao abençoam o relacionamento entre Seeiw e Cake foram perfeitas. Todo o elenco de apoio conseguiu dar vida à personagens críveis e maravilhosos. É uma série que merece uma conferida!!!

O que eu realmente gosto das produções taiwanesas é que eles são capazes de contar histórias criativas, que raramente vemos em outros BL e emotivas, sem virar melodrama. É difícil comentar sobre essa série sem dar spoilers, mas ela realmente merece seu tempo. Existe uma história fascinante e psicologicamente complexa em DNA says I love you e acredito ser a primeira do gênero, pelo menos que eu tenha assistido. Sem querer revelar muito, a série aborda questões sobre descoberta e aceitação da própria sexualidade. Todo o elenco entrega performances tocantes, com destaque para Erik Lin (Amber), Lin Wei Jie (Li Ching Lung) e Huang Yv Hsin (Hsieh Yu He). Parabéns para quem escolheu o nome Amber para o personagem. Foi perfeito para definir um personagem que possui camadas de segredos e complexidades que vão sendo reveladas aos poucos à medida que a história progride. A cinematografia é perfeita. Super recomendo!

Shiba Ryoma é um advogado genial, ambicioso e exigente, que tem um plano audacioso. Tudo estava indo bem até conhecer Haruto e ser cativado pelo seu olhar doce e sorriso terno e ter sua vida virada de cabeça para baixo. Um dos pontos altos da série é a dinâmica entre Shiba e Haruto. Perfeita. Gosto da natureza severa e equilibrada de Shiba e da natureza engraçada e complexa de Haruto. A série tem um tom leve ao abordar ética, moralidade e o que significa ser honesto quando nem sempre tudo é preto no branco, certo ou errado. As cenas em que os personagem aparecem em situações cotidianas também me encantaram. Além disso gostei da maneira sutil, mas impactante que a série usou as suculentas para simbolizar o crescimento e desenvolvimento pessoal dos personagens à medida que enfrentam dilemas morais e éticos. Ufa, não sou a única que conversa com suas suculentas 😂😇 E finalmente temos um tema de abertura que é simplesmente cativante e dançante! Ia adorar se tivesse uma segunda temporada!!

Ponto negativo: a bagunça que a Netflix fez ao transmitir a série. 😡😡

Essa série é uma montanha russa confusa de emoções. Não sou muito de séries de horror (?), mas a presença de Fluke chamou minha atenção. A história tinha um potencial incrível, mas uma direção completamente desastrosa arruinou o potencial da série. Eu realmente gostei da premissa da série e mesmo com uma direção desastrosa conseguiu prender minha atenção. Adorei não saber se as coisas estavam acontecendo na vida real ou apenas na mente doentia de Khun. Gostei da dualidade dos personagens, porque nenhum deles é realmente o que aparenta ser. A caracterização de
Khanin e Phakkad como espíritos obsessores estava perfeita. Mas em determinados momentos tinha a impressão de estar assistindo uma série de comédia e não de horror. O fofo do Dangjai parecia mais um acessório que era usado para preencher as falhas da trama e depois ele desaparecia. Mas o que realmente me irritou foi descobrir que não existe o último episódio!!!Sério? Uma total falta de respeito com o público. Se eu voltaria a assistir a série? Só se o último episódio aparecer.

Lu Xia é um prodígio do tênis que herdou a força notável e o talento de seu pai. Ao retornar à China, ele se junta ao time de tênis do ensino médio e começa a descobrir o verdadeiro significado do tênis e a sua própria identidade como jogador. Na jornada para conquistar a liga nacional, Lu Xia e seus colegas de equipe aprendem valiosas lições sobre a importância da amizade, da perseverança e do trabalho em equipe para superar os desafios.

Confesso que fiquei surpresa com o quanto gostei desta série, porque nunca fui muito fã de tênis, mas acabei sendo conquistada desde o primeiro episódio por causa da narrativa envolvente e inspiradora.

O elenco, composto por jovens talentosos, entregou performances super convincentes. Foi interessante ver a evolução e o crescimento pessoal dos personagens. As partidas de tênis foram um dos pontos altos da série. A série soube dosar comédia, drama e uma pitada de romance.

Queria muitooooooooooo uma segunda temporada porque fiquei com muitaaaas perguntas sem respostas: o que acontece na liga nacional? Lu Xia e Qi Ying ficam juntos? E o bromance entre Chi Da Yong e Tang Jia Le?

This show was an absolute rollercoaster of emotions and I completely loved it! I went from having full-on laughing fits and giggling with a goofy smile on my face to crying a river. It’s a silly, chaotic, and intentionally over-the-top rom-com that perfectly balances its wild moments with more vulnerable ones that totally won me over.

The charm of the show is hands down Duang. How can anyone resist his impulsive, optimistic, naive, and vibrant energy? I love when he says he’s going to win Qin’s heart and that he’s not asking for permission, just letting him know. But while Duang is an open book and completely transparent about his feelings, Qin is the exact opposite. Seemingly cold and emotionally guarded, he slowly gives in to Duang’s chaotic, over-the-top, yet incredibly tender charm.

Qin was actually the character that surprised me the most. He’s complex, and the show gradually reveals the reasons behind his reserved nature and emotional distance. The nanny scene had me sobbing. Huge props to the young actor who played child Qin, because that was a really difficult, heavy scene.

TeeTee and Por have perfect chemistry, it feels so natural and they delivered all the emotional weight their characters demanded. Casting Yim as Duang’s older brother was a stroke of genius. Loved it! The entire cast gave solid performances, with North being a major standout. Plus, the OST is just as sweet and vibrant as the show itself. Duang with You has definitely made it onto my comfort show list.

If I could give this series a score of 1000, I would. It’s simply perfect. The show nailed the balance between romance, crime investigation, and social drama, delivering a story that felt more mature and intense than most BLs, all wrapped up in a plot so engaging I was literally counting down the days for each new episode. It’s a top-tier production with stunning sets, gorgeous costumes, and a beautiful soundtrack. You can really tell how much care went into making it, even down to the way the language shifts over time, a detail that’s almost always overlooked in time-travel stories, so I was pleasantly surprised. Huge props to the whole team for that.

The cast was fantastic across the board, but JJ especially stood out. The chemistry between Net and JJ was spot-on. Their interactions felt natural, sincere, and believable. JJ, though, completely blew me away. He gave way more than I expected, and I can’t wait to see what project he and Net take on next. The final episode wrapped everything up perfectly, leaving us with a beautiful message. Highly recommended!

This show took a totally unexpected turn and I loved it. It’s a story about redemption, regret, and growth. Getting a second chance in life is rare, so you have to know how to seize it. Instead of going after revenge against the people who wronged him, Armin chooses a kind of existential mea culpa, diving deep into his past mistakes, especially in love and the choices that led to his early death. Regret shapes everything he does after receiving this second chance, and he channels that into trying to be a better nephew, a better friend, a better professional, a better lover. He’s determined not to repeat the same mistakes that destroyed him. But sadly, some things are just out of his hands. No matter how hard he tries, some events seem destined to happen. Highlight of the series? Definitely the cast. Peterpan and Pond absolutely blew me away. Their performances were subtle, emotional, and full of charm. I really hope to see them in more projects soon. Janine and Veynai deserved a story of their own. 😍

Contrast is one of those shows that flew under the radar. It came out of nowhere without any hype and just stole my heart. I was addicted from episode one, and the wait for the next episode was brutal. Love doesn’t need grand gestures or dramatic scenes to happen. Sometimes it just takes a staircase and a CD player to spark something, awkwardly at first, without either person really understanding what they're feeling yet. But slowly, it brings together two people who, despite being total opposites, are just looking looking for a safe haven to survive their teenage years. A heartfelt coming-of-age story that leaves your heart feeling all warm and fuzzy.

I’m not usually a big fan of horror shows or movies, but this series completely won me over. I just couldn’t take my eyes off the screen, and waiting for the next episode felt like torture. Even though I figured out part of the mystery pretty early on, the show managed to build this addictive tension between science and spirituality, blending crime investigation with dark rituals. That mix gave the story real depth and kept the mystery alive, while putting the characters face-to-face with dilemmas about science/faith, life/death, love/sacrifice.

Pavel and Pooh absolutely nailed their performances. They went way beyond what I expected, if that’s even possible. The forensic side of the plot could’ve been developed a bit better, but honestly, it didn’t take away from the overall impact. I’d highly recommend it.

Now that it’s finally available on Netflix here, I’m enjoying rewatching it all over again 😉

This is one of those shows that, in my book, is a straight-up 1000 out of 10. A long time ago I heard a phrase that stuck with me: “Love is a neutral ground. It happens when one soul recognizes another, no matter who’s standing in front of you.” That’s exactly what this series is about. Love here isn’t tied to looks or the gender someone was born with. It’s about the heart and who it connects to.

What first drew me in was its unique and fascinating concept: a love that lasts through time, even as one of the characters reincarnates in a completely different gender. The show has this fairytale vibe, a mystical touch that grabs you from the start and doesn’t let go. It balances humor and romance beautifully, with a story that’s simple, easy to follow, and an absolute joy to watch.

But what really makes this series shine is the phenomenal acting from the entire cast, especially Daou, Offroad, Pond, and Xiang Pornsroung. Special mention goes to the young actor Udon Chayanon (Thong from Khemjira). Honestly, I can’t imagine anyone else playing San besides P’Daou. He was the perfect choice. He has the charm and elegance to embody a character who’s over a hundred years old, with old-fashioned values, and he managed to convey the doubts and struggles of someone who’s lived through so many changes. Watching San’s Journey, from his initial homophobia to finally accepting his love for Vee, was deeply rewarding. P’Daou is truly an incredible actor.

Vee isn’t a flawless character, but I love that he’s openly gay and unafraid to show what he wants. Offroad, with that radiant smile that could light up the whole universe, brings so much warmth. And the chemistry between Daou and Offroad is pure magic. Every scene they share is unforgettable. Pond, meanwhile, gave me a serious case of “second lead syndrome,” making me root for his character Third to find happiness too.

On top of all that, the production is solid and the soundtrack is wonderful. Highly recommended.

I liked the second season way more than the first. In At 25:00 in Akasaka 2, the focus is really on the couple’s romance, and we get to see them in sweet, domestic moments together. On top of that, they’re both competing fiercely for the same role, and against my expectations, that rivalry ends up being resolved in a really romantic and supportive way. Both of them feel more emotionally mature this time, and even though they’re in the same profession, they support each other. Once again, Niihara Taisuke and Komagine Kiita deliver heartfelt, engaging performances. They’re both so expressive that they can convey emotions without even saying a word.
