I agree with what Bri73 said. I also think that Le is more nervous/shy/awkward than anything else. Le is an inexperienced…
Agreed. I can unerstand Le's hesitation, his awkwardness, his confusion about the realization of his true feelings for Amber. It's not just about him being a guy, or being their childhood friend, Wen Wen, who they all thought was a girl. I think this is the very first time that Le has had true romanic feelings for someone in his life, and he saw it as friendship, but it's really him, falling in love with Amber.
This show has a weak plot and pretty boring character portrait. Not to mention toxicity and weird grooming vibes.…
You can wait another month, and someone YT, will have created a compilation video of all the scenes of the Alpha (Lian) with his little Omega (Kuea) from the series. So, you won't have to spend up to 9 plus hours watching, an uncomplete plot, with extra fan service added. It'll be 3 hours max.
Everything about the last episode summed up the problems with the series. It was awkward and full of unearned…
"It was awkward and full of unearned moments. The few shout-outs to gay rights and marriage equality felt completely disingenuous and made my skin crawl."
Agreed.
The last 5 minutes of the finale was something, because as I tried to listen to the message about love, marriage equality, and the importance of being there for your partner, in good times and bad, ALL that I kept thinking was, "Why wasn't this type of messaging told in the screenwriting for these characters relationships, and development, during the series run?! Why did we have to rely on the tired miscommunication trope throughout 11 episodes? Why was Lian so damn insistent on being the one to propose first before Kuea?!" And I realized, because he's the "Alpha" to Kuea's "Omega". He couldn't be shown as still not having the ultimate control, and decision making in their relationship. That's simple not what those fans want to see.
"This show and these characters have shown nothing but privilege from start to finish and the hardships that real gay people face were ignored."
Well, this really doesn't go against what most BLs are all about: a total fantasy.
Some BLs have actually made a real efforts to blend in real-life LGBTQ+ issues, within the fantasy world of their BLs. This one, did not, even with the sporadic 3 minute dialogues about certain issues in certain episodes.
Damn, I've never left a comment but here goes. I'm very surprised by this show and how much I enjoyed it. The…
Yup!! Our "confident exhibitionist bi king" really loved having his bae's eyes, and interest always on him. I joked earlier in the series, that I had expected to see Nuea, clearly losing patience, breaking into Toh's dormroom, to lay on his bed, absolutely naked to continue their "practice kisses". After he ripped off the comforter, and bedsheets with his image on them. 😃 😊
Good jobs are hard to find, so why does Tian continue to mess up Poon's opportunities for other placements in his desired career?! Especially for there to be a chance for them to be a couple in the future, they need to have their personal lives separated from their professional careers
The possessiveness isn't an attractive trait at all.
nuea, sky and touch are walking green flags and that was the biggest surprise to me because i just expected at…
Seriously. In last week's episode, we had Nuea breaking down, in total fear that Toh, would end their relationship, because he thought that Toh would be much more happier with having the memories, over having a future with him.
Then in the finale, we have Sky, also in tears over being given a gift, by his lover Jao, in which he showcases his love for him, as the equivalent to the nighttime sky.
Let's not forget the below dialogue between Daisy, and her man Intouch.
Intouch: "Truthfully, I don't want to back away, but it pains me you are not being your true self."
Daisy: "I'm a trans. Don't you think it's weird?"
Intouch: "Even if you're a man, and asked me to be your wife, I'm willing to do it for you."
Sigh....just one more episode.
He keeps sneaking glances at Roa. 😃 😊
Agreed!

Exactly. I know that most BLs are TV adaptions of novels, but has there ever been a BL based solely off an original manuscript?
