Nachi

Btw: If anybody knows the songs that plays at the end of the episode (which also started when they...met at the pool in the dark), PLEASE let me know ^^! Shazam couldn't help me.

I really don't want that but....what else can I do? I thought about watching it on iQIYI but it won't allow me to watch it because of the payment methods -.-. I think at gagaoolala it's easier (I think they accept paypal).

It's Minato Shouji Coin Laundry.

I am VERY pleased! I'm THRILLED to be honest. I'm highly likely facing a sad ending but the overall story is presented so well! I detested MSCL because of unnecessary drama and Akira not behaving like a normal human being (in my opinion). There's always been something about Japanese BL series that repelled me, because they tried to adapt from a manga and kept it as a manga but with actual human beings. That might work in an anime but most of the time, it won't work with real actors. I don't know the novel for Eien no Kinou but the series is already much more likeable.
There are still some manga or anime clichés (at least a little bit) but it feels like this is getting better by each episode. At episode 3, I was wondering why a kiss is barely the touch of the lips (even though Old Fashion Cupcake was like a moving manga...it worked there and the kissing scene was...*chef's kiss*; they were showing that a good kissing scene between two males in a Japanese series is possible 😉). In episode 4 it was a lot better and they even went further afterwards. Even though that scene wasn't shown, this is going way further than any (good) Japanese BL that I've watched by now. I was also thrilled about the content seen in the preview. I don't mean this in a way directed towards the content itself (what was shown is of course saddening) but addressing something like depression and possible suicide...this production team is going places!

Well, them taking it down might be a problem but not an obstacle 😉. There's always a way. I was confused why for once my rating was higher than the overall rating xD.

Thanks a lot!

HIStory 3: Make Our Days Count kinda had it as well and it tore me apart. I'm still feeling sad when I think about it. So I'm not sure if I can handle a series like that again.

I fought through it but it's kinda been a little waste of time. But I'm still on a train and can't do much anyway. I wish there was a series being more mature. By that I mean that I also want an actual story. There's of course a lot of series that I like that also don't have a plot. But just a good story with a male-male couple instead of m-f and giving their romance a bit more space from time to time...I'd love to watch something like that.

It's mainly episode 7 by now which is just weird. Why the decision to not talk it out? And what is there even to talk about? He could have asked all along! After talking to his colleague I thought Jar Yoon realises that what she said is right. I was kinda hoping for him asking Ho Joon if love life is difficult for him etc. Maybe Korean society is still a mystery to me but this is driving me crazy >.<. I dare to believe that it's not this bad in real life.

I'm struggling. Shall I watch the last episode or not? This forced drama is a total turn-off for me and in general the story is only so-so. Maybe after the weekend xD.

Definitely! And I have to say that I often caught me thinking "and now we switch to the side couple, yes?" xD. I'm super ready now ^^.

Me too! I'm glad that I was able to eat up UWMA in less than a week xD (I don't know how I did it). I wish I wouldn't have dropped it back when it aired the first time but well...past me was just not ready yet ;).

Totally agree with you but then again...Vice Versa brought me to Choco Pie xD. I was almost screaming when I saw them at my local Asian supermarket 😅.

I binged the special episodes...I need more xD!

But...how is a 7.8 considered bad? It's out of 10 thus it's more than average. 7.8 is a pretty good rating I'd say.

I started watching the series back in 2019 but somehow dropped it. I don't really know why. Maybe I wasn't ready for Thai BL? I picked up watching Thai BL again late last year and after watching a lot of different series (some I liked, some I didn't like) I was pushed towards "Between Us". I liked the teaser and tried to remember why I didn't like UWMA. There was no apparent reason and when I started with this series again, I was constantly asking myself "why did you drop this?!". It still has aspects that are kinda weird to me or that I didn't like but overall it's a very nice and cute series and I'm glad that I gave it another chance. Took me only a few days to eat it all up and now I'm ready for Team and Win. I'm glad they get their own series because after finishing half of UWMA I thought it will be similarly build to LitA (so that we get the other couple in the second half) and that "Between Us" is just a bit more background story. But nope! It'll probably tell all of their story. I'm curious ^^!

I think I saw much worse. I somehow saw it but it I wasn't constantly annoyed by it xD. I think then you won't be able to watch Vice Versa ^^.

It took me a split of a second to realize what was happening... I'm TOTALLY fine!

Thanks again! I think it's too much for me to analyse Name's behaviour and we can only guess. But I'm already happy for him that he found somebody he's this comfortable with. Em most likely noticed that as well and even though Name got left behind, I hope for him he'll get his chance to "evolve"? I wish for him to have a happy future as well and not just being able to watch his friends from behind.

Thank you for the insight! We sadly don't learn anything about ASD or anything similar at uni and I'll probably have to learn about it when I'm on the job (if I ever have to). There is so much variety in ASD that I thought Name falls into this category. Anxiety disorder can make sense as well but he never spoke at all. So it was the same with your student?
