Not a Robot

I actually love the manga. While I think they are doing a fantastic job adapting this to live action, the live action does not capture the cute blushes that appear on Adachi's face when he learns things about Kurosawa. I also think the manga is better at portraying the interaction between Tsuga and the delivery worker. In my opinion, the first impressions are better explained in the manga even though it's only an extra.

My condolences for the loss of your husband. I hope that My Extraordinary doesn't have them reunite in the spirit realm just to redeem Sandee and Mom. I think that Shake deserves a break in life, especially since he now has Ken. By the way, Make Our Days Count resulted in so much outrage that they are now making the alternate ending. It's on MDL already. Also, thed are very briefly shown with both of them alive alive in a Japanese BL called Senjou Bokura. I think that you should wait until History 4 comes out, then watch MODC1, right before MODC2. My favorite BL so far this year is 30sai made Dotei dato Mahotsukai ni Narerurashii (Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!). It's about working adults and has supernatural and comedic moments.

I didn't know they were making a movie on this series. I have the manga so thanks for the information!

So far, this is my favorite young love show. No angst about being gay, being honest with the ex-girlfriend, no scheming females. The gratuitous shirtless scenes provide the comic relief. I hope that Key doesn't get hurt by the video, but focuses on that he is Chen's crush.

I love this show and this episode was great. I think Karl was dancing because he did two things that were out of character, he told his parents the truth, then he reached out to Vlad. As they say, the first person you come out to is yourself, so why not feel free? Since Vlad came back, we don't know whether or not Karl would have fought for Vlad, but when Vlad came back, Karl immediately motioned him to join and finally surrendered to his feelings. The comments about Karl being feminine or gay dancing are old fashioned. It's up there with the top/bottom stereotypes.

Thanks for explaining this. I don't know anything about Filipino culture, so this is just my perception without understanding the cultural aspects. Since there is an age gap between Judit and Vlad, she is the child who had to witness the unhappiness between her parents. When their dad walked out, it must have devastated her as well. Sometimes we cope with our pain by trying to be the best, perfect, and everybody's "ally" including to to her friend Anna. In my opinion, the scene in the car, she let go of this and allowed Vald to run back to Karl is where I feel we saw the real Judit.

Thank you. I would not have found it on my own. Karl Zarate is such a good singer.

First I've heard of them, but not the last. They are talented! I'm wondering if anyone put together an OST list. I like all of the music, which is rare for me.

I really loved this series. Both learned to takes risks and take a stand for themselves. Judah decided to take a risk on Rocky instead of having "space" and Rocky took a risk on coming out to his dad. My only complaint is, they should have subtitled the soundtrack, especially the originals.

I enjoyed this whole series! I was happy for both of them because they each decided to take a risk on each other. Rocky came out to his dad (who already knew) and Judah learned that his grandmother had unresolved feelings about her ex-husband. I didn't care for the phallic artwork because I felt that it was male adolescent humor.

I am not affiliated with this project, just a viewer with an opinion. I think that Karl set himself free when he announced to his parents that he is switching majors. He decided that he is not going to live his dead brother's life to make his parents happy, he will live his own, including who he chooses to love. That's why he is not conflicted, he is happy. In the previous episode he was very conflicted about his feelings toward Vlad, that's why he flinched with the lights came on. His dancing is not "gay" maybe you see it in gay clubs, but he is dancing in a similar way to Vlad in episode 1, so maybe that's subconscious. Also, heteros dance like that too. As far as kissing and hugging in bed, he likes Vlad. He called Vlad on the phone to watch a movie. He wasn't able to tell Vlad that he missed him and wanted to see him, but we know that's why he made the call. Maybe you should watch the whole episode, because this episode had many revelations, and only watching for 5 minutes will not give you the true picture of what took place.

Who ever is in charge of the soundtrack deserves a raise!

I watch some gay couple YouTubers from other countries and let the ads run so they can make money. I'm older, so to be honest, I want them to get some income so they can be independent from their families. I'm surprised at how many say they are not out to their families. I'm surprised because moms are usually not stupid. Child hasn't had boyfriend/girlfriend + living with a same sex person in a studio + always with this "roommate" = heterosexual? I don't get it. We need to love our kids as our kids. Who cares who they fall in love with? It would break my heart if my child couldn't share this part of life with me.

She may pay the ultimate price for her reaction. She reminds me of the mom in the movie Latter Days, where they don't start to become aware of their ignorance until they are pushed into an extreme situation.

Although I understand that there is too much focus on non-con, I think the painful sex stereotype was debunked by Can himself. Can thought it was going to hurt but apparently it didn't because he ended up loving it and wanted to do it again right away (this is also in the book). Can also seems to want to have sex and he lets Tin know when he does, like when they were on the couch. Then again, BL never mentions that some couples do not like anal and do not engage in it.

I agree. Love Sick received the same critiques, but now is beloved. I like this drama and it's not because they kissed in episode 8. I think everybody is working hard on this drama, given they have a large cast and shoot in multiple settings.

I really like this series. Yes, there are flaws such as the computers not being turned on and in episode 8, they are at a resort, but the door to the room has a cat door. They seem to have put their money on filming and cast. When a country is launching a new genre, there are hurdles to overcome. Look at Love Sick episode 1, it was so confusing, almost unwatchable and was a mess. Gameboys (which I also liked) did not have the location shooting and large cast that this series does. This story does not have the pandemic to use as a 3rd main character either (so far). The same critiques (cringe, bad acting, etc) were said about Love Sick, and now people are nostalgic when they speak of that series. I think that I can get over the flaws because the story is sweet. Ace feels unloved by his family, but he loves Sky and Sky and his family loves him. I hope this series doesn't have a sad ending, but so far, I think they are doing a great job.

I agree with In having his rant because he was devastated and In also took accountability for shooting himself too. They omitted that Korn's dad beat him because he said that he wouldn't take over the loan business. They also cut out that In's dad beat Korn right before Korn shot himself. Korn did not defend himself, he took the beating. Not only that, In's mother witnessed everything because she followed her husband to the condo. They also didn't include Dean and Parm in the future (I won't spoil it) and that's why I said they may want to save it for a special episode.

I loved this series but felt let down by the ending, and I thought the ending was the weakest part of the series. While everybody was bashing on Korn, the violent scenes toward Korn were deleted from the show, and those scenes give a better understanding of why Korn made that impulsive decision. The acting and the music were great, and these actors have a long career ahead of them. Maybe they're saving what they left off of the ending for a special episode.

I like the series because of the acting, storytelling and music - yes the most hated parts! I think since the story is supernatural, I just go with the flow and buy into the story. I will never get tired or Boy Sompob either. What I don't like is the suicide scene being played over and over and over. I think it's a little unnecessary to keep showing it because anybody who saw episode 1 isn't going to forget what they saw.
