I've liked every Strongberry Release and wish that they had greater financial support. Wonderful casts and script, I was glad to see the return of 2 actors I loved before.
The web browser, Opera, has a free built-in VPN but we still need subs https://www.opera.com/
okay, I set the VPN to Asia and it wouldn't work, it kept saying I was offline. I set it to Optimal location and to Europe and it worked in YouTube. I had to copy and paste the title in Thai. Remember, you cannot sign in to your YouTube account, you have to browse as a guest
I'll be watching. Yes, it's a large cast which makes fitting all the exposition into the 1st episode tricky. I've loved some of the acting from some of the cast (e.g., Willi was phenomenal in Till the World Ends, and Run in Tin Tem Jai, and Beer in When a Snail Falls in Love). I don't think you can judge a series based on 1 or 2 episodes. Even studios that might not always put out the best series can surprise you. The actors, cast, and crew did their best on 8 episodes, I'll give them a chance.
If it's canceled I feel sorry for the actors who were cast and lost an opportunity due to silliness. The US, UK, and Europe have tons of movies with teens in heterosexual relationships and that's fine with inter-fans. Change it to Thai BL and suddenly everyone is "oh no, those are children." No, they are Thai actors, the same ages as Western actors. They auditioned, they weren't abducted and forced into the roles. They are not having sex, they are acting. The characters in the books are in HS. Is Addicted Heroin a more mature themed series? Yes. But actors who wanted the roles, whose families supported them, who auditioned and were found to be the best were cast. Could OffGun or other older actors who still look young do it? Yes. But Addicted is iconic and so are recognizable ships and its hard to mesh those 2 things. You don't have to agree with me, but please remember, all BLs are just acting.
Can we talk about that Xiang Hao Ting in HIStory3: Make Our Days Count was his first main role?He's just amazing!!
I never knew it was his first role! I always point it out as some of the best acting I've ever seen. MODC destroyed me (I should have paid more attention to the title). He deserved an award he was so incredible, his character's grief was palpable.
I love Mame ❤️ I love her stories and I know some people, usually inter-fans, have issue with some of the content. I get that, it's not for everyone, I can understand that. One thing I would point out, in defense of TharnType is this: Type's history of SA as a child was included for 2 reasons: first, to explain his hatred and secondly, when he discovered what Lhong did to Tar, it resonates so strongly with Type that his need to bring Lhong down outweighs his love for Tharn. Remember, Tharn said if Type mentioned breaking up a 3rd time he would never take him back. There was a purpose to this. Yes, Tharn pushes his way into the shower and Type fights back somewhat but stops and allows it to happen. Someone down on their knees in front of you is easier to get away from than someone standing. Type was a football player so he was athletic and had the ability to have left. As a survivor of SA I know people react and cope in many different ways. For viewers who are survivors, this might not be a good show, we know our limits. Finally, don't attack Mame, or even Thai BL until you watch Japan's Dangerous Drugs of Sex, Double Mints, or Fujimi Orchestra. That is NOT an attack on Japanese shows (I liked DDOS) but to show things that happen IRL show up in fictional stories and shows from all countries. If it's not for you, choose another title, but please respect the fact that others might have enjoyed the work(s) and support the authors and series creators.
There is a YouTube video about Thai BLs that were canceled or postponed. This one had supposedly filmed 60% of the series but was running out of money and actors and crew weren't getting paid. Video also says that sponsors, director, etc. sued the studio for fraud.
