I am a bit confused and have some questions for those who know the original manga or the anime. Did they explain…
Some stuff here are just hooks for a possible continuation. The adaptation was very close to the source material and you only start to understand stuff as the manga goes by. I doesn't explain why Mafuyu stoped liking Yuki Akihiko and Haruki end up together after a very complicated story Akihiko has a very trouble and toxic relationship with Ugetsu that you understand by volume 4 of the manga (the series only adapted the 1st one) and he used to prostitute himself too. Mafuyu's friend was a lil out of place for me here, but he's there just cause he felt guilty for not helping Mafuyu and Yuki.
Yes. Strictly speaking, this drama is not a BL. At least i don`t considered it to be.I think it fits more in the…
You're talking as if BL is a pure genre, but it's a DEMOGRAPHIC that works as a genre.
First of all, there's MLM in ALL demographics in Japan: Kinou Nani Tabeta is a seinen manga, A Man Who Defies the World of BL is a josei manga, Kieta Hatsukoi is a Shoujo manga (if you read it, you would understand why it's not a BL, Hashimoto is a main charather and her romance with Akkun is as important as Aoki and Ida's), Banana Fish is also a shoujo manga and there's a whole demographic by and for gay man: Gay Manga/ Geicomi
If westerns are narrow minded to think that shoujo is only teen BG romance, that's on their ignorance. You can say: this is a shoujo manga with a gay romance, it's simple like that.
BL IS NOT synonym for mlm in asian media, even though some people use it. It's a demographic with it's rules that if you take it to use on other media, people might get disapointed cause they recieved a "BL promotion" for something that lacked what BL fans want.

That's completly false!
Yaoi and shounen ai are arcaic terms for Boys Love that only westerns use. All of them mean the same thing in Japan and specially shounen ai is almost never used. To be a BL the manga needs to be published in a BL magazine or be indexed online as one.
Given is BL, it's published in a BL magazine. Sasaki to Miyano is not BL, it's a shoujo manga (so is Kieta Hatsukoi).
You can chack on chil chil, the biggest database and BL site of japan. Sasaki to Miyano is tagged as Not BL, Given as BL https://www.chil-chil.net/
People calling this BL is so misleading. Besides being based on a shoujo and not a BL manga, the story is a very good study about young love (in all configurations) and identity.
I think i know the reason why they just showing bromance cause maybe the director is not good in romance genre…
Less intimate but why have the side couple kiss and not the main couple? We all know it was one of their agencies (or maybe one of the actors themselves), it’s been said all over Japanese Twitter since before the no kissing end. You can delude yourself, but you know the truth! All the interview with producers and scriptwriters were vague about this! And now we have a MOVIE (which is not shown on TV) without a kiss with a less romantic rollout than ever.
There has been plenty of BL series in multiple TV Stations WITH kissing scenes, Ossans love was so much bigger than CM and had multiple kisses! Cherry Magic (which was a 1AM show BTW) featured one on their side couple!
After raping and hurting Pete, and keeping him chained, Vegas falls in love with Pete because of Pete's kindness…
And I suggest you to GO to a psychiatrist AND buy a book on penal law AND learn how to read, cause the marital rape we talked about isn’t related to KP. PS: I did have psychology classes on medical school. You are playing the dumb one here
I feel bad for GiChan, he's been done dirty by his agency and didn't deserve such a lame comeback
There's one on the manga, one on the BL CD, other for the anime and other for the live action.

It's a shoujo manga only. Besides that I agree 100% with you.
I wouldn’t either
The thing is today there's so much competition. If this came out like 2 years ago I would be loving it
Before this new app they promoted their webstie and an app called one31, now it's One D.
I believe it's just for thai residents
This series is indeed irregular.
