This hasn't released yet according to mdl

Um okay, since you are cancelling the opinions of anyone who is not an adult let me start out by saying that I am an adult

Now yes, there is something called consensual rape sexual roleplay but your phrasing makes it seem like you're confusing bdsm and rape fantasy and the biggest distinction between both: consent.

The description doesn't look like rape roleplay at all. Role-play is consensual, whatever happened here—or is going to happen here judging from the description—is clearly not. If it isn't consensual, it is wrong. If something non consensual is romanticize, it is wrong.

I won't argue whether it is right or wrong to seek out romanticized rape and watch it, but everyone here on mydramalist (and on the internet in general) can comment (or 'whine' as you call it) as much as they want.

That synopsis isn't helping my first impression at all but I'm interested in seeing what they do with it but I'm not exactly eager to watch it, it looks like romanticization of rape. But I don't want my first impression to cloud my judgement :/

Okay but did I spot lesbians in episode 13? Those two ladies were leaning in too close
And then Ping told Tin that 'girls are more open minded than him.'
Props to the showmakers for making such a great series with gay/bi/pan characters and to MIRROR for portraying them and for being so open

I don't think so. The one Japanese one needed a sequel imo because it didn't end with them completely showing enough progression in their relationship. Hong Kong did the time apart conflict already (Haruta went abroad in the second part but Tin is already doing that by going to Taiwan)
HK ver. has also shown lots of development and ups and downs in their relationship ready

The Hong Kong version has a way more cohesive storyline, I love how they're doing the ending in their style. Hong Kong sure is a chic place ;)

There wasn't any Ossan's Love released in 2016 to my knowledge. 2018 is the original Japanese one. 2019 is it's sequel. 2021 is this one, the hk adaptation
It's kind of hard to say which is better. The Japanese and Hong Kong versions have a different vibe and Hong Kong added lots of new things in terms of dialogue and some of the storyline has been altered near the end. HK has a more cohesive storyline. But the Japanese one was more—idk it had that particular Japanese effect which is hard to reproduce

Both
In the og the cafe scene was actually an old fashioned Japanese restaurant/eatery
The cosplay wasn't even there in the og (I liked it because it somehow showed Francesca's youthful side but simultaneously how mature she was) and the dialogue after that was all Hong Kong

This ark was there but the Francesca and Louis scene you're talking about was all Hong kong

Omg I recognized you from Tumblr

Siu Muk did it because he believes it would be good for Tin, he doesn't have any excuse to give to explain all this to Tin. He thinks Tin isn't happy with him or won't be in the future and do what he thought was Noble

And Tim being good with kids wasn't a 'new' development, not for Tin anyway. Like Ping said, Tin has always wanted kids and it's noticeable in his interact with Ryan too. Siu Muk's break up was kind of explained better here than in the og

Hong Kong's entertainment industry is largely over shadowed by China where cheaper and worse movies and series will get a larger viewship simply because of the larger population. Not to mention Hong Kong is Cantonese.
I don't think people understand what a huge step this adaptation is for Hong Kong
I'm pleasantly surprised by this series and I love it no matter what anybody says

The two most common shippings in Mirror are are Keungson (Keung To and Anson Lo) and Jerdan (Jer Lau and Edan Lui)
It's actually kind of interesting that instead of going with a shipped pairing, they went picked one from each xD I think Anson is the most shipped because he's kind of considered the face of the group and Edan is naturally goofy :p

I made a post too but I'll say it again, Lee Sae On's dimples are adorable 😭🤚

I could not watch that wrist grab and collar pull with a straight face, they looked too cute XD

I actually feel bad for Namgoong, they're obviously setting up his character to be with Sohee

I find it good, but it's sort of hard to compare even though the storylines are really similar

Haha in the group he's shipped with someone else XD

It's from the English description of the manga. I believe users can't write their own synopsis, don't they have to submit a legitimate source? Or maybe they can and I've never seen it but nevertheless this is from the manga itself

Sohee is properly lighted too but lmao this interpretation makes it interesting
