Sorry, I couldn't be more help.....I'll have a search of the net, if I find anything I'll let you know. You've got me wanting to read it now! :D

have you tried Wattpad? There are a lot of really kind people on their translating books for we foreign readers to enjoy.

Title Love Me If You Dare Spoiler
I believe Jin Yan's look at the end symbolizes that he continues to solve crimes because if you remember whenever…
I think Allen exists - BUT as a protector for Simon's sanity. I think Allen surfaced when Simon was a captive of Tommy to ensure he survived the ordeal and now he exists to protect Simon from the worst mental stresses of the cases and also to find the most elusive of clues to catch the killers.

Haha so Love Me If You Dare got a spin off with the officer as main lead this time... sorry It's just that…
I thought the same thing - as I was reading the description I thought "ooh, so being kidnapped by the Flower Cannibal and losing the girl of his dreams has really messed with his head then!" before THEN realising it was a completely different drama! XD

"What no one knows is that the father's wish is for his two sons to co-operate and to take over the business together......." Well, here's a radical idea....TELL them. Open mouth and SPEAK! I really cannot stand this sort of 'misunderstanding' ruins a once loving family' scenario - ALL because one of them just refuses to open their mouth and speak.

where is the other ending the happy one i really need to see it to forget about all this shit ahhh i am going…
Sadly at the moment you can't, Baillie. Until the uncut DVD is released there is no way to see it and, so far, the chinese censors are being deliberately slow in the release of the uncut dvd because the filmmakers are insistent on including the happy ending. Someone told me they've heard it's due for release on 28th October - but whether that happens, or just becomes another in a long list of promised release dates that get missed, is anyone's guess. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news....but blame lies ENTIRELY with the chinese censors. :(

Is this from China? I'm asking as I know all their BL ALWAYS ends with a tragic outcome - so not sure if…
Thanks for that tip, Neyjour. :D I probably won't watch this one then as the Chinese ones rarely end happily. Thanks again for that tip though. :)

Ataru's scenes with adult Madoka were out of character. I don't see why his ability to communicate would be any…
Agreed and I did think that Nakai Masahiro was exceptionally good as Ataru; I'd love to see him reprise the role; especially now he's effectively 'alone'. I do believe he felt that Madoka was the only one who understood him.

You are right about the savantism being 'put to use'; I don't know why they always do that. I have to say I LOATHED the wheelchair woman for the way she treated him and the way she looked down on him - but expected HERSELF to be treated like everyone else.

Oh no, likewise - I was just trying to say I wasn't talking rubbish and did have some knowledge of autism. So we're good. :)

Well, that's your opinion which are of course entitled to. I still enjoyed it and would love to see another one. Still, if we all liked the same thing the world would be unbearably boring.

Oh and I wasn't preaching; just saying I did have a point of reference out here in the real world for my own take on his autism.

Title Fake Couple Spoiler
I wish I stopped at episode 8, it would have been a nice way to end it.
Likewise - by the end of the last episode I really loathed Himura. But even Kamon was just too weak and you ended up wanting to slap her. I think stopping it at episode 8 would've better for everyone, especially those of us watching it.

He loved her; just that. Autistic people have feelings even if they can't always relate to them properly - so for him, Madoka was his first love (just as he was hers) hence why he would've followed her and she KNEW that - that was why HIS gun had no bullets.

I think in his own way Ataru also resented Larry - Larry was responsible for separating he and Madoka; Larry was responsible for Madoka becoming what she was. So he's not really Larry's best pal. Ultimately he was also responsible for Madoka ending up the way she did and so I have no doubt that if they'd made another movie, Ataru would've been VERY distant from Larry compared to Maiko and Shunichi.

One of my daughter's best friends has Asperger's Syndrome (a mild form of autism). I am a very demonstrative person and, when she was going through some tough times, I was very huggy as I really felt bad for her. My daughter told me she didn't like being touched; so of course I apologised - but she said "it's you; so it's okay."

It seems with some people they like and, MOST importantly, feel comfortable with, whilst they rarely make eye contact autistic people ARE capable of showing affection and ARE okay about some touching. Looking back, she did used to hug me too - not tightly or anything, but she'd pat my back. :) She told my daughter she knew I was just offering her comfort because I was sad she was upset; she said she was touched I wanted to comfort her the same way I would my daughter.

So I think Ataru is the same - in a more complicated case of autism admittedly. But he still feels, he still loves............and he can still dislike. I would love to see Nakai Masahiro reprise his role as Ataru, and witness how he deals with his grief and also Larry. I mean he truly NAILED the autistic characterisations, he also made Ataru such a complicated character but so lovable too. To see him deal with Larry and come to terms with being (perhaps in his own mind at least) alone now - THAT would be brilliant.

I'm truly hoping your just trolling because to think that way is really sad. I grew with a pathological liar for a father who was also a serial womaniser and who's behaviour was so horrible, my mum (who remained true to him until the day she died) finally had her health break and died much too early. I was raped by an ex-boyfriend AND beaten by him - BUT I do not blame all men because of my father and my ex. My own father in law was a controlling bully, but my husband - who I've never even THOUGHT of cheating on - is a wonderful husband and father who I do my best not to take for granted. I KNOW that not all men are lying, cheating scumbags who delight in torturing the people they claim to love. Likewise not all women are like the one in this movie. I am ugly, I admit and my health could be better - so perhaps I go more for the person inside than a vacuous person only interested in themselves; but I've been very lucky to have my husband and I tell him that every day and always do my best to ensure I don't add to whatever burdens he carries - I NEVER tell him when I'm having bad days and always try to smile and make jokes of any pain I'm in.

So, please, remember NOT all women are evil; just like I know not all men are. But, if you've been badly hurt by a woman to make you think this way, then I'm sorry - no one deserves that; but her loss. Don't let her ruin your life; she cannot have been worth whatever heartache you suffered. I know my ex and my father aren't. The only reason I keep in contact with the latter is he is my father and I promised my late mum who still worried about him literally until the day she died. Personally I count my blessings every day that I married a good and loving man. I genuinely hope you can move on one day and find happiness - don't let whoever hurt you win; she's NOT worth it.

Is this from China? I'm asking as I know all their BL ALWAYS ends with a tragic outcome - so not sure if I'll bother if it's Chinese.......really don't need to keep kleenex in business any more than I already do. I'd rather wait for Japanese/Thai BLs which often do have happy endings.
Replying to SonnyFreya Oct 4, 2016
Till the end I hoped that it wasn't true, that it was just Nian plan so that Yan could forget him and marry that…
Oh yeah, definitely the case with the Chinese BL. However Thailand BL is the most open for happy endings, followed by Japan. :)
