For real, does the Chinese government actually think watching BL series can turn a straight person gay? So, what,…
China has restricted Boys' Love (BL) content due to concerns over capitalist exploitation of youth-driven trends, its potential influence on minors, and its perceived conflict with state-promoted values. While profit-driven use of BL themes has been criticized, the government’s broader goal appears to be reinforcing traditional cultural norms.
It’s not just about LGBTQ+ themes. China has also cracked down on celebrity culture, fandoms, reality shows, and anything seen as promoting "unhealthy trends."
Many popular BL dramas (like The Untamed) were able to air by toning down romantic elements and focusing on platonic friendship.
Best part of the drama is the ending. So if you read someone is saying the ending was ugly maybe he/ she is referring to another drama. Even you read the book or novel, the dramas ending wasn't bad at all. Also if you haven't read the book the drama will be somehow between 8-10. Those who over react like the world collapse because of the change of narrative good news the changes is unnoticeable if you haven't read the book.
Bad part.
Under utilized male lead. Entry of music in some of the scenes. Clingy FL, author forgot to improve the romantic relationship of TS and XW that's why people end up shipping TS to other characters :)
For people slandering actors here this is my take:
One way to measure impact is to measure reaction. Some negative reaction should be expected. If you are making 100% of the people happy, then you are not making enough of an impact. Try to make most people happy and some people a little upset too. Life is that way. Of course, if everyone is pissed off at you, then well, maybe you read some of their feedback and see if there is something you need to do about it too. Then their defamation and slander might actually have some value to you. But if they are just being mean, well, the world has many cruel people in it. So I recommend choosing to interact with those people who are not that way, and avoid the others as best as you can.
We really don't know what you guys are saying. Right now we are watching the drama as it is.
You are allowed but you people are too negative. You guys always say we won't watch it anymore but you guys still here spoiling everything to drama viewers. Not everyone read and watch the anime fyi.
Kills the mood of watching the drama instead of explaining to us so that we will read also the book and anime but instead they want us to hate the drama too. I'm like dude if you don't like the drama and like the book just go and marry the book.
Can anime fans and novel fans respect viewers that haven't read the book yet or watch the anime. We are watching drama here T_T go create a forum and discuss differences there.
I think it is fun for me. I really hate the boycotting attitude of some people. Super super enjoyed it and I think it will be the best drama of 2021 for me. Ok and also I just finish Mr. Queen its the same concept haha.
I bought fast track in wetv using vpn thailand in episode 24 and 25 there are no english subs. I wanna cry lol I want to see what's next because it is addicting. hln are starting to have feelings for ts and I think ts is dumb when it comes to relationship. The battle in the first 11 minutes of episode is a must watch (even tho there are no subs I watched it)
Hopefully tomorrow wetv thailand will upload english subs to fast track episodes I couodn't wait to watch it is so addicting.
For anime fans I hope that you'll respect the drama. Writers needed profit to write more good books in this form let the writers publish and recreate their work on tv. Be happy for them. I hope you give it a chance there's nothing wrong if you try.
