Each show has its own pros and cons, some overcome it but some don't. Just like how Plus & Minus started up in a good run but began to stumble in the middle and failed to re-sprint in a recovery state.
A BL roaming around the field of law is quite fresh yet the storyline ruins the chance of it to be unique and memorable. The vibe has a lot of similarities to the previous BLs I’ve watched such as Beloved in House: I Do and HIStory 4: Close to you, that loses the spark of the show to cater its own impact. Nevertheless, one thing I’m grateful for this show is by reuniting some of the prominent characters from the other famous Taiwan BLs. Seeing them made me reminisce about their own story from their respective shows.
Connecting the title to the two couples, I must say that Plus goes to the main one and the Minus goes to the second pair. The lack of chemistry between the side couple and the nuisance acting along with the baby girl is a cringe. I skipped their scenes since it mostly distributes an uninteresting flow of story.
Fortunately, the main couple saves it but it isn't enough to save the whole show. That accidental kiss on the sofa was the only romantic scene I adore from them and the rest are pure plainness. The downfall of the show starts on EP07, all episodes prior to this one are good ones. Then I began to get really bored of the later episodes. Nevertheless, the finale was fine. Helding a wedding ceremony is a good execution not only for romance but also for showcasing the legalization of same sex marriage to their country, Taiwan.
Ending this with a positive statement that the Plus and Minus pendant is so cute!
I just can't help it but to hate seeing Kinn and Porsche being happy while Pete is being tortured and slaved by Vegas. Also, I feel like Pete can fall under a psychological response called Stockholm Syndrome, an emotional retort in a captive situation. However, I don't know if knowing Vegas even before kidnapping him can compromise this coping mechanism. Nevertheless, I pity both Pete and Vegas for living in a life where their fathers vent their anger and frustrations into them.
Japanese BLs are literally the best among the rest when it comes to cuteness and fluffiness. I just keep smiling the whole time, especially seeing those ethereal visuals of the main characters. Yanase-senpai is soothing with a mixture of hotness and kawainess. Also, they offer us a new and fresh concept that revolves around the profession of 3D CG Designers. Overall, the pilot episode manages to set a great start and captures the viewers’ attention.
Love Mechanics is the only bearable show among the three sequels of EN of Love. I am grateful for it to introduce YinWar to me, who captivates my heart from their great portrayal of roles, eye-candy visuals, and strong heated chemistry. However, it’s hard to fully love the show since you can’t enjoy the flow of the story from the toxicity presented that revolves around cheating. Nevertheless, YinWar once again saved the show. It is also important to take note that in real life, some people are like Vee and Mark, under the same kind of situation.
I prefer this realistic way of storytelling over some over-romanticized love stories that are pushy and all over the place. However, this sequel was really an agonizing one. Especially seeing Seo Jun's great efforts and sacrifice just to save their relationship. As well as Han Ji Woo hating himself for his own behavior. There's too many things left unexplained and I'm all ears and eyes for them.
The campus sweetheart trope along with their huge shipping fanbase is absolutely a tiring norm to have. When will Thai BL makers realize this and offer the audience a better kind of storyline? I just can’t help but feel sorry for the outdated vibes that I’ve already seen plenty of times. The only thing that makes me cling to this show is the cute and fluffy scenes provided by the side couples (Park&Lee, Bear&Bomb)
I never expected this show to be this fluff and cute. Despite the loopholes I’ve seen, the overall impact it had on me was great enough. Park and Lee are the most loveable couple here. Their scenes were immersing, charming, and heart-fluttering. Also, the relatable moments of Bomb to his one-sided crush Bear were comedic and executed in a realistic way without too much romanticism. As much as I love the chemistry going on between the characters, I can’t help but feel annoyed by the basis of the love story. In which the teacher abuses her power to ship the two students in favor of her personal wants. I hope this will end sooner since it really affects my enjoyment of watching. Nevertheless, My Secret Love is a pretty good BL show featuring many good-looking visuals.
The resemblance of Mek's friends to some of my favorite K-artists is pretty close; Park looks like Ju Haknyeon and Bare's appearance is closely like Song Jae Rim.
