Amazing show, was a little underwhelmed at the end, but I am tired too. Also what is with the controlling parents in these shows!? It's like damn can't y'all chill

Right. Its not like people are out to make homophobic narratives it's just is something that takes time to address and move away from which more BL's are doing
I say let people comment. It's not our job to police people's opinions. You can only share insights and points of view to someone's opinions; wrong or right. If it's negative fine, positive fine. At the end of the day it's there's it's not your job to vouch for the show. Someone's experience isn't yours. That out of the way, I'm not feeling the character who is using his friend to get with the girl when she clearly stated she isn't into him at all. It's a triggering no=yes situation that I'm not finding humorous. It's being diluted with the queerbating he's doing, but I'm just like that behaviour that isn't cool. Also the brother thing doesn't bother me cause they ain't related so... Cause anime has done much worse, and societal norms like 'see you as a brother' are mute when put into this context especially when it is clearly stated they aren't related, that literally means they are two guys who like each other. When actual incest is introduced, then discussions can be had. Like how people brush over rape and boundaries pushing is looked over, but non-blood relationship is where lines are drawn?
Um so that happened. I don't know how to feel about them just killing off the third character like that, and how no one seemed to care or really resolve that plot thread
After a long hiatus, Episode 4: Finale (Part 1) was finally released. Unfortunately, the break didn't help solve…
Would you mind explaining the plot to me? Or verify my assumption? So I thought someone had amnesia and the other was basically watching him...but it's not the case?

To dismiss that is in itself a bit irresponsible. You can be gay and homophobic. I also did say unconsciously as well. Even if that wasn't the writers intent it is still possible for it to happen. I'm just pointing out that possibility. In all honesty compared to alot of other BL'S it is a cut above. Bear in mind that death is not the only means of effective emotional loss. Watching a lot of queer media by queer people it tends to happen. There is actually a new for it, though i don't remember, but it's a means of suffering thinking it's a way to show great love and it's not conducive. Again you don't have to show loss through death. They could've drifted apart. Which to me shows am even greater loss because they fought so hard to be together and having to still exist knowing that their love dissolved through such hardships, in my mind, makes for better story telling. And i think that's the point of the narrative. You don't know what will happen, so treasure those moments. Again to think that death is the only real option shows a lack of understanding when it comes to the 'bury your gay troupe' it's not looking at something too deeply, it's acknowledging that homophobia has ingrained itself into queer narrative and it is not recognized as such, and that's where my discussion is coming from
Are they seriously trynna make it a dream? I enjoyed the ending. Not every drama needs a good ending. To me, the…
It was lazy at best and was a bury your gay troupe( https://the-take.com/watch/the-bury-your-gays-trope-explained), you're right not every ending has to be happy. The ending could have been done a dozens of ways that didn't result in death. By killing off your gay character it comes with an unconscious and possible unintentional homophobia, thought as being meaningful and deep. Which is undermine by the fact the actor was brought back as a "student" look a like. Which was worse that he was like 'oh he was the only man' made it all feel hollow, like it was a spur of the moment. Don't misunderstand i completely get what was intended and could appreciate it. It still doesn't excuse the messiness of how they chose to do, and that has to be acknowledged.
As long as Tae is still in it, I'm fine. It's not just me, right? He gets more attractive with every ep? How does…
I think they shot stuff out of sequence. His hair is lighter. When I saw it I thought it was different dude, because he always wore baggy stuff, but now they showed his body more and the light hair threw me off

I saw one dream theory; so possibly?
