He actually begged for the sex. If that's not consent I don't know what is. Thanks for explaining it to the prudes.

I don't know. Ken is the hottest guy in the show. If he came to me with those (empty) promises and sweettalk I'd take him back in as heartbeat

Without some indication of intimacy, ( a kiss, cuddle in bed, something) this is really a bromance not a BL. High school kids have sex and intimacy. It's certainly not even unusual. You can just watch Hit, Bite, Love for a little bit of a more realistic high school atmosphere. I'm not calling that show realistic but we all know that high school students are the most horney group of all. That's reality. MSP is complete fantasy and that's fine. Very enjoyable but totally unrealistic.

Actually, I only now watched the episode. I often read what people post before I watch so I'll have some idea before. Although I'll agree what happened in the show with regard to the sexual scene was unethical and wrong and a true responsible person would have not have taken advantage of a vulnerable 'friend', I think you must realize that alcohol has been a lubricant for sex like, forever. I have been around for a long time and can verify that many gay relationship begins with some sort of coersion often not dissimilar to what happened here. The people who are appalled at this are far more likely to be women. I'm not trying to trivialize this but in the gay community this is far more accepted than in the straight community. Maybe men are expected to take care of themselves more and not expected to take 'care' of their weaker bretheran. I don't know, but what happened here was not sexual assault. In fact Uea actually begged King and he was fully conscious when the sex happened. I also think we can disagree without the other being wrong. We are just coming from different a viewpoint. Anyway, I really liked what I saw in episode 1 and will most definitely continue watching. I think it may be a little different from your standpoint but it couldn't hurt to give this a little more time and you may find that King gets a chance to redeem himself.

Well, it seems you do want to judge. If I'm the problem then why do judgemental people like you feel you have the right to confront my opinion. You are basically calling my opinion a perversion. I don't need a shrew like yourself who can't tell drama from reality calling me a problem. Look in the mirror. You may see the real problem.

It's called making drama. These kinds of scenes are created to make a series, movie, or drama entertaining. Sorta like when you have a murder-mystery you have to have a murder. If you don't like murder in your story then you don't have to watch. Likewise if you don't like this genre of drama you don't have to watch. For the rest of us we should be able to separate drama from reality.

Well said. If there is not, at least, some implied intimacy then what we have is a bromance and not BL. Some one above even said that those wanting to see a kiss should go watch some 'soft porn' such as cutie pie. That is the most insulting comment I have seen on these boards but I refrained from responding because I don't need a back and forth with some soft headed fool. Of course a kiss would be appropriate in this as even a high school romance has intimacy between lovers. If they are LOVERS.

Well I hate to admit this but, I dropped 1000 stars after about 4 episodes. Guess I have trouble with these irrational spiritual transformations as I dropped Vice Versa too. At least 1000 Stars looked like it could get better but Vice Versa just never did it for me and I gave it far more time than 1000 Stars. But I'd never give up on the likes of MSP just 'cause I'd watch Forth and Gemini if they just stood there staring blankly into the camera especially if they were lightly clothed. And I'll agree on Bad Buddy: it was light and enjoyable but far from the masterpiece many on here describe.

You know, I sort of agree with you that this is 'the best BL ever'. Incredible story, phenomenal acting, and riveting emotional scenes. This probably has the best overall cast I've seen in a BL, and I've never been a huge fan of EarthMix. It's pretty hard to say this may be better than MSP but I'm finding it more compelling. I absolutely love Forth/Gemini and the sullen, angry, angst ridden Li Ming shows a full range for Forth from his cheerful happy Gun. These are two incredible 18 year olds with great futures ahead. I do hope they go in separate ways in the future as I find shipping 2 young actors together to be a sort of phoney nonsense that doesn't pass the smell test.

Yea, I get the 'not behaving like people' really behave. One thing that drives me crazy about BL's in general is the fact that we're dealing with young sexy guys and they seem to have an infinite ability to be uninterested in sex when they fall in love (or like). Although they seem to be becoming more realistic on this they've got a long way to go in recognizing that sex is a major component of any real same sex relationship. I remember in 2gether they were living together (and sleeping together) for months and never seemed to even get horny. That totally ruined that show for me and any show that treats sex like it's irrelevant or unimportant just destroys my interest in that show for me. At least here we've already gotten past that obstacle

Well, I have to agree on your choices of good shows. I liked all the shows you mentioned here and Vice-Versa is actually one of the few shows I actually dropped after about 7 eps. I guess I don't watch with anywhere near the critical eye for nonsense. Like I say I sort of like nonsensical stories as long as I can like the actors. But that's just me.

Glad to see you're still watching for the skin and cuteness because if you were watching for story and plot development you'd have given up on BL's long ago. I must say that I love these silly plots undeveloped and full of story holes just because I can get into the characters and be in love with them. Very few of these make much sense beyond fantasy but that, for me is part of their charm. They can't all be ITSAY and frankly I wouldn't want them all to be.

You get a vote up just for "hopefully me". I've been thinking Thi should dump Noey and go with Phayu. He's a fine looking man.

The only NC scenes I saw were with Ken and Shokun and possibly Matteo. All of whom are over 18. Any scenes with Burger and King have been completely innocent as they both seem to be under age. Hate on the show, or not, but I'm not seeing anything untoward here that we've not seen in hetro dramas with young actors portraying uncomfortable factual happenings.

Things like that ruined that series for me. Please don't ruin 'My School President' in any way like that.

You pretty much have to suspend disbelief for most (all) BL's. Watching this and expecting it to make sense is problematic. I mean if they could put the population in bunkers how could they feed them or sustain them after the planet is destroyed. Having said that, it's an enjoyable series with good acting and pretty faces.

Up until last week (ep 13) I was able to receive this here in Canada on YouTube. Ep. 13 then only part 4 came on you tube. No idea why this happened but I subscribe to IQ so not really a problem. The advantage with YouTube for me is I can get it on my large screen TV while IQ I get on my computer. Paying for IQ is definitely worth it as one person pointed out some of the best are available there.

He definitely was 17 when filmed. But what does that make him underaged for? A kiss? to Act? Frankly, I don't see what the issue here is. There is no law as far as I know why a boy can't act in a BL scene. Again, this is not porn

The 'anti-kiss' police are already out in full force. You'd think that they have a 17 y.o. acting in a porn show. A kiss is just that and a 17 y.o. can have a kiss with who ever they want. I really hope these prudes are ignored as it seems their sensibilities are offended by a 17 y.o. man kissing another man. Would they be so offended if it was a 17 y.o. girl kissing a man, a 17 y.o. boy kissing a 27 y.o. woman. This is ridiculous in this day and age 17 y.o. actors can make their own decisions with regard to the role they are able to take and we can make our own decisions as to what we want to watch. Give me a break with regard to the morality police trying to impose their standards on all of us. Don't like don't watch.

So what? This isn't porn
