Not a Robot

The epitome of Japanese culture, tell each other that they love them, but still on a last name basis.

I would like to see Ken have a story. Let's see what's behind the curtain.

I think they may be throwing some shade at the author and "management" of 2M2 for the way the original actors were dumped from the project. Allegedly, the author didn't like the 2Moons casting and the minions mostly went after Bas. That's why it's funny, not cringe to me.

No, because I'm enjoying the shade too much.

I'm afraid to watch because of the synopsis above, "BenXJim follows the story of two people who turn from strangers, to friends, to lovers and back to strangers with memories. " Back to strangers means they don't make it. I like this couple and hope they are able to stay together.

You can purchase it on Amazon.

The calm before the storm.

Hello Strangers or Gameboys.

People are giving bad ratings because they feel emotionally manipulated and are upset by these old fashioned tropes. There are many people who do not believe in an afterlife, so to them these two young men are in a jar or in the ground. The people who don't want them together don't believe they are together in heaven, they will say that's what they get for being gay. If they didn't sin, the wouldn't have died. That's what they said when AIDS was killing people.

I'm not a gay man, so I'm not speaking for them, but this is yet another instance of where the gay person feels they have to consider everyone else's feelings above their own. Even in death Ken has to worry about his mom, who is partly responsible for the accident. Even in death Shake has to get trashed. Ken, just leave with Shake. Sandee can take care of your mom. If she learned from this, she wouldn't be drinking, she would be thinking about educating other parents.

I don't think that viewers are considering the timeline and that they only got together after Vlad ran back to the apartment. In fact in the beginning of the episode, it is Vlad, who keeps stating that it's their last day. They are young men who need to work on this between them. It's their relationship and they are should make the decisions.

I'm ooooooooold so I remember a time when you did not declare yourself an ally, the community declared you an ally. I remember the first time a gay man referred to me as so and so's f** h@g and I had not heard that gay slang before and it had to be explained to me. Since I'm old, I don't call my self out as an ally, but I am a proud parent of an LGBT child, so I think that I feel maternal toward these characters.

Only 2 volumes have been released in English and I haven't tried to get Japanese raws, but so far, the show is following it well and no non-con so far. I would classify it as shonen-ai up to Vol 2.

I believe that everybody is entitled to their own story. It seems like everyone wants to write Karl's story, but it belongs to Karl alone. An 18-19 year old just accepted his feelings and came out to somebody he has feelings for approx. 3 days ago. Just because Karl doesn't fit the narrative, doesn't mean he is wrong. Vlad was hurt, but equating Karl's hesitance to accusing Vlad of committing a crime was a pressure tactic as well. Karl cares which is why he got jealous, stole the phone number off of Vlad's phone and called the number. I hope he switches majors, lives on his own so that he can work things out with Vlad with just the two of them in charge.

Me too or that the gay partner runs away so that the other partner can live a heterosexual life. I liked this series because the guys weren't overly handsome, they didn't show ripped abs, they are just guys who meet in school, just like real life.

Now that I let my emotions de-escalate, Karl has been out to Vlad for literally a weekend. In real life, I would tell all of them to stop butting in and give it time. They just met a month ago. I guess the mom in me thinks that isn't long enough to be pressured by Judit, and I'm giving Vlad a pass because he is hurt from a similar situation. Everyone's coming out experience is a personal journey. I'm just going to ride out the last episode and accept it.

It's possible they lied because when the History 3 MODC actors were doing press for Make our Days Count, the actors said that the series was nostalgic and satisfying. Then the character, Gu Yu Xi is killed. That character is similar to Shake, where they just didn't seem to get a break until they fell in love, but then that was snatched too. I keep hoping this is one of Ken's plays, but who knows. At this point, I'm going to wait until the last episode is spoiled. don't want to watch a final episode that is half recap and half 2 women having a pity party for themselves.

Thanks for the info. I'm confused by this episode because that was a clear statement.

I wanted to but it aired in the middle of the night my time. Hopefully they can make it so that we can watch it on demand after we pay for it.

I hope the author didn't mean, "they're alive in our hearts" or in heaven watching over us.

I had a feeling when I noticed that Ken and Shake were wearing the same clothes, but Sandee wasn't emotional under the tree after contributing to her friend's death. Since the mother only took her husband's ashes, I had hope. Thanks for sharing, I'm going to stop watching because I'm tired of dead gays and family regret when it's too late. Sandee may believe she is reuniting them in her head, but there is no proof of an afterlife. I was hoping this was Ken's play, but guess not.
