I just noticed this series is ending. How was it? It’s been on my list to start.

My comment was far from hateful and it is you who chose to be personal when I dare post a dissenting opinion.

No one does french kissing 💋 like Boss. He’s a freaking tongue master.

Amen sister 🙏🏻

Love Sea is a masterpiece compared to this.

You and me both.

I am not only interested in NC scenes, I find the pacing slow.

I hear you. Don’t get me wrong. I love this pair of actors, I just have high expectations and I’ve been finding it slow. Love in the Air is my top 10 BL because of Boss and Noeul.

A SLOW start to this series. It’s hard not to compare Love in the Air or Love Sea which had a hotter start for the main couple. I am hoping it will improve, but it’s never good when I find my self watching at 2.5 speed. I can’t remember when the lat time that was for a MAME project.

The main couple is definitely lovely to look at. It’s so far a story that is not really going anywhere. I find this is the type of series you are just fine with watching. I will give it three stars for the massage scene in episode 1. Onward!

Sadly there are only 37 countries where same-sex marriages are legal and Japan is not one of them. (Source: https://www.hrc.org/resources/marriage-equality-around-the-world) Yes the true treasure is the ability to love who who want in your own country and have the same rights and freedoms. Until then the fight continues.

I kept yelling at my screen “get on a plane to Canada 🇨🇦 we’ve had same-sex marriage legal since 2005!!!!!!

Hands down the best BL of 2024 (even though it finished in early 2025). The love and longing these two characters had for one another was so well scripted and performed. The injustice you feel that they can’t share their love with others. To be accepted for who they are. There is a concept of “bearing witness” in religions like Buddhism. Witnesses give meaning to one’s life because of the witnesses’ willingness to become intimate with another's experience. These two lovers are missing the witnessing of their love through marriage. It’s truly heartbreaking.

Haruki can’t win for losing.

Angst started with episode 2!

You are absolutely correct. Neglect is a central theme of this series. It doesn’t matter if you come from wealth or poverty, the impact is the same. It’s what bonds Hirukawa and Minsase together.

He is deeply broken from abuse and neglect. His reality is skewed. He looks at everything from a fractured perspective. He longs for love & normalcy but lives on the edge of a knife. I do not fault his character.

This series is unrelenting. Heartbreaking. Mesmerizing. I’ve never seen such deep commitment between two characters. Goddess give them a good ending.

Agreed, it was like he was looking at the life he could have though a window. Out of reach and heartbreaking.

Episode 6 is a heartbreaker. It lifts you up with Minase and Hirukawa consummating their relationship only to see it falling apart by the end of the episode. The story arc conflict is right in the middle, so here’s hoping it will be resolved. I am not certain I can take any more scenes of Hirukawa getting beaten up by his so-called father. Domestic violence is hard to watch.
