Love Is Better the Second Time Around Episode 3
0 people found this review helpful
well didn't take them long to get to the mating part lol... not shocked considering how Miyata was going about things. he might keep playing hard to get, but that's just it - it was a game, nothing but a tease. he wants (in the biblical sense) Iwanaga, maybe even more then Iwanaga wants him. but found it hilarious his rant at the end. i thought after getting laid people usually mellow down. here Miyata wound tighter then before - guess it will take more then one "try".... for it to work on him. after all he been thirsting for a couple of decades... ******************************************************************************************************************************************feel bad for Yuto, dude was used & then tossed aside, instead of moving on he was kept beside the person he's infatuated with. little wonder he can't move on. but love his b*tchy side & he get's Miyata good lol it's hilarious. Miyata has no come back & the ones he makes, r as weak as his resolve & personality - sorry not sorry.*****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i know the looker of this BL is Iwanaga but IMO Miyata is better looking between the 2, heck he manlier too - physic wise.

this may sound mean, but Miyata is like a b*tch in heat. he loves that Iwanaga is circling him, but when he tries to mount him. Miyata pulls back, not cause he doesn't want "it", but he has to play hard to get - he needs Iwanaga to work hard for "it". especially given their past, he can't make it too easy (even though anyone with eyes can see, that he's dying for "it"). so this basically their mating dance.*******************************************************************************************************************************************what i did love; Ako Akihiro's girlfriend, smart chick legged it & saved herself the headache of ending up as his beard - in a loveless, cold marriage.. no woman deserves to be tied to that type of man (someone that i using her), with no regard to her as a human with wants & needs (not just sexual). *****************************************************************************************& the 2nd happy moment in this ep was when Yuto, Takashi's assistant called Miyata a b*tch lol i cheered Ψ(￣∀￣)Ψ 2 scenes that made this ep for me. the mains r just tedious

of course gonna be the odd one out, don't like either main. really don't like Iwanaga, there is something sleazy about him - the typical middle-aged professor that sleeps (= take advantage) with his young students. & Miyata not that much better, he's deluding himself (u gay date a man & then the 1st love wont have such a hold on u, maybe) or the woman he is dating. what is frustrating to watch, if u don't like someone or hold a grudge - even if u gotta work with them, u will keep it 100% professional & avoid any type of innuendo's or friendly overtures made by them. *****************************************************here Iwanaga from the word go is grossly lecherous towards Miyata & instead of reacting coldly - professionally, Miyata acting coy, like a confused, inexperienced school girl. ***************************************************************************************even though this just 6 eps, i feel like i am gonna have a tough time keep my temper in check - but hey at least (given this toxic as F*ck) i won't be rooting for anyone, so wont be invested... sadly doesn't mean it wont annoy the carp out of me lol

Takara's Treasure Spin Off Episode 1
0 people found this review helpful
cute, but more of the same as the prequel. Takara offers nothing more of himself, saying to Taishin even if i make u sad i want u to talk about it. means nothing in the grand scheme of things. it just says i will do me & u have to cater to me, if u gotta b*tch & moan about it fine, that's the least i can do for u, listen... this a happily ever after?!?? to me it's depressing but hey it is what it is.

very sweet ending & am glad that Takara finally showed that he cared for Taishin even if verbally he wouldn't come right out ^ say it. but this was a sweet ending & seeing that there is a spin off am hoping what wasn't here will be there. but all in all a cute BL that i wont mind rewtching

when someone tells u who there r, listen! *********************************************************************************************sadly i know Taishin is a lost cause, he is blinded by this 1st love & will agree to anything, if it means he can be with Takara. the fact Takara gave nothing of himself, in his confession if anything declared it was more of a take it or leave it offer. he had planned out his future & it was left to Taishin if he was in or out. this so one sided -************************************************but as he kept Taishin close, creating a homey atmosphere - always being around one another. it's like u create an addict, u offer them freebies until they r hooked & then no matter what u demand or say, they will do anything for the drugs. situation no different here. *********************************************************************************************************************this started off good but slowly turned toxic... & i need Taishin to stop saying "Takara saved him, in their 1st meeting." yes it is heartbreaking, losing a childhood pet. not belittling his pain. BUT he wouldn't die from that loss, it would hurt & he would cry maybe for days or week, but as time goes by, that pain would get bearable. that's freakin life

Takara is genuinely frustrating me, doesn't he like Taishin?!? isn't that why he pushed him into confessing (coward move BTW) here Taishin walks around with his heart on his sleeve, he is an open book & even if something could confuse u, he is painfully candid about his every emotion & thought, so u r Not left guessing. ***************************************************************on the other hand, u got Takara who seems like he is enjoying playing the aloof character, that is above the need to explain himself or steep so low as to showing his true feelings. even when he sees Taishin constantly second guessing his worth & his right o be with someone worthier then him, like Takara. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i know it's great when someone keep massaging ur ego, but that also mean Taishin is belittling himself constantly. why not clear things up & tell him u care for him, r into him - that he is worthy of u. that u want him no less then he wants u... bleedin annoying

maybe i should be happy that the main couple is together, but given the way Takara went about it, i don't really feel like rejoicing. 1st he kept his card close, not really confessing his true feelings. just accepting Taishin's. 2nd he was very vague about what he feels & why he is going along with Taishin's confession. & what he did say was so vague i am left confused as to what he is playing at. *****************************************************************************************************************************************considering Taishin's naiveté he deserved better then to be left this clueless, let alone feeling that Takara is doing him a favor cause he confessed. little wonder he is feeling that he isn't worthy of being with Takara. *******************************************until now i was ok with both guys behavior, even if i didn't understand the motivation behind every action. but in this ep Takara didn't act like a mature adult, he was manipulative & a bit gaslighty. Taishin deserves better, not just cause he is a clueless, naïve junior. but cause he has always been very open & candid about everything with Takara.

Taishin is hilariously oblivious & it's very endearing - especially when he rushed to defend Takara - from his mother lol... but don't blame him she looks so young, she might as well be their age. pity some so beautiful on the outside is so ugly on the inside. ********************************************************************************************************************************like how Takara is slowly opening up. & i like that he is giving Taishin time & not rushing anything. but he will have to take the lead as Taishin really is like a clueless babe...

cute ep... but wondering what is going on with Takara. is that his mother who is phoning? why he estranged from her/both parents? & even though Takara hasn't really done anything, Taishin is starting to develop feelings. which is sweet, but considering his naiveté am wondering if he doesn't need someone to push/usher him over the final hurdle

this ep was hilarious, Takara gets that Taishin is so naïve that he needs time to get used to the idea of 2 men being attracted to each other. but Taishin can't get his head around this fact, so he happily accepts that his feelings r that of a stan, that is fanning over his hero. & it was adorable seeing him act like a hyper puppy following/stalking his 'main'... frustrating Takara to no end. as the last thing he wants is for Taishin to worship him from afar.... lol

glad the whole situation with the pervey "Uncle" was dealt with ASAP, as the more it was dragged out the worse the issue would've gotten. also happy that Taishin in-spite of being really painfully naïve, when it really counted he didn't fall for the kind-guy act that perv was putting on. also dude stood outside his door for ages - freakin sacry ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************but Taishin being painfully naive is so obvious considering what Takara said to him. he didn't even get the subtext behind his words. & am right that Takara is attracted to Taishin. but Taishin being this innocent wonder how this gonna develop

had a weird feeling about the guy on the bus, but then was like 'no, not all people gotta be pervs.." alas seems like my gut reaction was right. just hope Nakano not gonna go through something traumatic. cause I'm here for a sweet romcom... ugh （＞人＜；）**************************************************************************************************************************& the guy at the shop is one hell of a salesman lol, or maybe Nakano is just that gullible. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************seems like Takara is gay & that is why he is so distant, cause he aint 'out' & isn't ready or comfortable around others, also keeping a distance means no one will find out. but Nakano is breaking through, not only cause he is trying to get close to him, but cause Takara is attracted to him. cute - still the pervey dude stalking Nakano is worrisome, especially as he is living alone & kinda naïve vulnerable, not to mention too trusting. am worried

am kinda shocked that 1st ep & i like both mains. yeah i cringed a bit cause of Nakano but on whole both he & Takara r really relatable character's. the fact they both eye candy is an added plus lol

called me jaded & i know i will be the odd one out, but i call b.s on this last ep - so Ritsu hiding the fact that he saw Fumiya on the beach ages ago, is equivalent to Fumiya lying to him about them dating & cause of his breaking up with him on his freakin birthday, Ritsu ran out & got in an accident?!? really?? *******************************************************************************plus we have Ritsu apologizing i am sorry but this carp conclusion. but i get "we" needed a happily ever after so the writer went wild pulling this sh*t out of thin air & now everything is perfect. the end - ok - i guess. ****************************************this could've been so much more but it was mediocre at best. the acting was good but this a one off. bummer -
