This show is quite good, but 8.9 feels massively overrated. It’s not a masterpiece people will remember for…
I told sunset about you is indeed amazing, but I feel this is an unfair comparison as Mr Fanboy and ITSAY are different in their core. ITSAY is more of a coming of age series, while Mr Fanboy is a romance focused story mixed with drama and comedy elements, they might be both under the bl category but their themes and focus are different. Both do a great job at portraying the themes they want to explore. ITSAY is great because of how it explores the feeling of being queer and the journey to accepting your self, Mr fanboy focuses on the romance and the point of a romance is to show the journey of two people falling in love and it does a great job at it, since most people love the main couple, so that is all it needs to be memorable based on its genre.
The sex scene might come off as awkward to people because that's what is supposed to convey on Wan's side. This is most likely the first time he has been pursued romantically and desired sexually so he doesn't know how to handle it, he is already timid in nature so that only adds to his awkwardness and inexperience. Near the end of the scene he seems more at ease and based on the bathtub scene in the preview he seems comfortable. Third's approach paid off because he respected Wan's pace but at the same time he made it clear that he is serious about him in order to give him confidence and I find it BEAUTIFUL
The sex scene was BRILIANT. Emotion and desire balancing each other out, it was both hot and sweet at the same time. I AM GOING CRAZY OVER HERE. Saturday can't come fast enough but Wan sure did.
I just can't stop admiring the little details. Third smirking while looking at Wan and after kissing him, looking intensely at him and licking/biting his lips, he is savoring EVERY moment with Wan, it's like he wants time to stop so they can always be together.
Camping in the comment section while rewatching episode 8 and Third's confession always leaves me floored. I find his choice of words interesting,he says I really like you to show the sincerity of his feelings,but then he says "if you would let me say the word love I would say it right now" to show the intensity of his feelings. It's like he is indicating he has been holding back all this time, Third's advances might already have been a bit much for someone as inexperienced and shy as Wan, so I can only imagine how overwhelming it could be if Third was allowed to go all out, so by confessing he not only expresses his feelings but also tries to make Wan warm up and get used to the ways he expresses said feelings.
I do get where you come from, I also think Third is rushing a bit. I mean the first time he confessed and kissed…
Moving with the speed of light is so accurate! I know this man wasn't joking when he told him to move in together,he is obsessed. Likewise, thank you for the convo!
