so is no one gonna mention the gross kidnapping + sexual assault scene ?? not surprised since y'all nut over…
I definitely agree with you on this. The relationship was extremely unhealthy and is apparently even more so in the novel. Abuse is never good and this series romanticised it.
not to mention this is literally incest lmfaooooo y'all are weird
This is a controversial topic. You both have good points and neither of you are wrong, but it really comes down to one's frame of reference. In many cultures, but not all, relationships between step siblings is considered incestual and sometimes even illegal. However, if someone grew up in a culture where it's accepted, you won't be able to change their opinion on that. Now, I'm assuming you're a Westerner so I'm going to reference Western culture from this point on. If two people became step siblings while they were in their late teens to adulthood, it's not considered incest as they did not spend much time together as siblings. If the step siblings were raised in the same house and currently live together as a family, it still isn't considered incest by definition, but is a bad idea. It's not only seen as strange, but can cause problems with the family if they one day break up.
Whether something is considered incest or "morally wrong" is opinionated. Humans created morals. Humans decided for themselves that relationships between relatives were wrong (the reason being that it caused issues with genetics). When the issue of genetics is no longer there, it's up to the individual to decide whether a relationship goes against their idea of what's healthy. You grew up to believe that step siblings shouldn't begin romantic relations with each other. That's your frame of reference and it most likely won't change. But neither will the people's who believe relationships between step siblings is acceptable.
An uncut version of Advance Bravely (15 episodes + first three episodes of season two) are being sold on USBs.…
Even if you buy a USB, the episodes won't have subtitles. Only buy one if you want the additional posters, post cards, and photo book. If you only want to buy one for the episodes, wait for someone else to upload them with subtitles instead. And if you can't understand the website, google chrome can translate web pages.

I just found out the story behind this. Dayu had a dream of becoming a singer and releasing an album, so Qing had Dayu pick out a song and bought the rights for it. They changed some of the lyrics together to make it more like their own story during that summer. The song was a duet called "Jin Xia," or "This Summer" and this short film was for its MV.
Isn't cool to get the message that transsexual people just want to go through transitions to satisfy others…
I agree. I thought I would like it when I first watched it because I thought it would be a nice story about a trans woman. It's obvious that the writers of the show don't understand what it means to be transgender. They make it all seem so superficial.
I think it was a sweet story but the acting was a little weak and that part of him kissing him while he was, sleeping?…
Your comment says all of my thoughts on the film. I was just about to comment about everything you mentioned. It's a good thing I read yours first or else I would have seemed redundant.
I think what people fail to realise is that this is a mini series, 25 mins episodes. I don't know what storyline…
Love is More Than A Word and Till Death Tear Us Apart are both good. There isn't much physicality in the relationhip but you can see how much they care for each other through their expressions and words. If you haven't seen them yet and want to watch them, make sure you don't accidentally watch the cut version. The uncut version can be a bit hard to find but I have a link to a good quality version if you want it.

There are many BL dramas like that but also many that aren't. Though, you obviously know that since you only said that that was the case with "most" storylines. Anyways, have you watched Sotus? It's one of my favourites and doesn't follow the plot you described. If you've seen that already, I have other shows I can recommend.
