Don't Be Too Emotional Episode 4

estar little Jane is a menace to himself he always gets angry at things that i find irrelevant while missing the main reason to be pissed. & i am sorry but his showing up with a new guy every new moon is kinda gross. don't just bring anyone to meet the family - u bring over someone truly important. same with his somehow ending up as Dan's bf - like r u kidding me?!? even if at that moment he wanted to hurt Jane Patrick & make sure he stopped hounding him. the sec he was alone with Dan he should've apologized for using him & tell him he wasn't in the right space of mind to start dating. but nope he just glossed over that whole issue & went with the flow - even though he knows he isn't over Jane Patrick & it would be a while for that to happen. but bottom line he considers Dan as a good friend, nothing more. would save him all the following awkward situation's - but little Jane needs to be humbled & embarrassed at every turn i guess. ********************************************************************so the fact that his own brother forced him to kneel in front of Jane Patrick, begging for a favor was hilariously ironic. even though if i was in his place i wouldn't be going to meet some thugs behind a hospital - i would be calling my parents & we would deal with that sh*t as a family. WTF should i shoulder all that sh*t all on my own??? as is that brother has been the odd one out in that family from the start of this. & his parents enabling as turned him into the spoilt brat he is, so they as the adults in this equation should be the ones to deal with their middle child & the thugs he has "invited" into their family - sorry not sorry. but then no BL so it is what it is...

before anything, if i was little Jane i would've bailed the sec Jane Patrick said that Jui chick deserved what she was getting, as is dude is turning out to be too much of a Pandora's box for anyone normal to handle - too many shady dealing's & secrets.... but i don't agree with little Jane always saying "ur lying to me" as that isn't the case, they haven't known each other long enough for them to know everything about each. they just in the getting to know/talking stage. u can't sum up ur life in a few words & give ur freakin CV on the 1st date or even in a month's worth of dating - that isn't how dating & getting to know someone works. so i think it isn't a valid argument to make - but i for sure would say dating Jane Patrick seems a very complex thing & is too much for me handle, would rather bail while i aint in too deep. which then would be the end of this BL lol so i guess we get what we get. well at least i got another interesting toxic BL to watch lol *********************************************************************side note: i found it kinda hilarious (& sad - depending from who's i'm looking at this) here Put was ready sacrifice his life for little Jane - he confessed his love &yet it wasn't even mildly acknowledged by little Jane - that's whack.

i gave Jane Patrick the benefit of the doubt, but the most damming scene was his manipulating & tempting little Jane's younger brother - like WTF was that. why would u offer a devil's deal to someone that's close to the person u r trying to woo?!? that was diabolical. regarding the rest of the people crying that he's the "big bad wolf" - they made me roll my eyes, cause they in the same breath admitted that they asked for something & then just couldn't stand it when it was time to pay the debt they owed - like cry me a river. same with Put, he might be talking out of concern for little Jane, but his way of conveying the messages, is whack & most of the time he just looks angry at little Jane - not concerned. so don't get why i should care about him or appreciate the fact that he worries - like plz... sell this sh*t to someone that's buying - i aint. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************but Jane Patrick is a very shady character, i don't know what his true "face"/nature is, why is he putting on a show for little Jane & to what end?!? the fact he manipulated him a couple of times, diverting his attention or taking his focus off of what he wasn't ready to get into, making little Jane forget what was bothering him in the 1st place. that was very evident & worrisome IMO. cause little Jane really is too trusting, innocent & inexperienced to fall for an expert manipulator like Jane Patrick - recipe for heartache & the nut house if u ask me lol...

idk why the hell i am sticking around, as is like with the previous ep i fast-forwarded the majority of this ep. as there genuinely isn't anything remotely interesting - there was a sec where i was curious to see what Sangnuea would add to this ep - but dude ranting & raving the same craziness from the previous ep & if i thought the writer knew how to write, i would be elated that finally we gonna get a interesting couple that would bring the spice.... cause this beyond enemies to lovers - as Naphitch might be attracted but he hates Sangnuea, well the feelings r mutual. so this could be one hell of a coupling & sorry not sorry Phatsa & Nakhun r a freakin snooze fest, so much so even their NC scenes r off putting cause i don't like them, so watching them play-act at f*ckin gonna do what for me??? nothing that's what. ************************************************************************** heck i was much more entertained spending time in the comment section (where i spent more time reading comments) the actually watching the train wreck of an up that aired ugh

was waiting for this to get completed & couldn't wait anymore, the 1st thing i noticed that sadly Jane Patrick it utterly human & sadly the trailer - those majestic black wings where all little Jane's imagination - bummer. also from the word go, i don't buy the negative hype where Jane Patrick is concerned. if he is indeed filthy rich i am 100% sure he has (at an early age) come across users that tried to kiss ass & see how gullible he is, so they could take advantage of him & mooch off him. either way the fact Jane Patrick's got his guard up & isn't the happy go lucky guy, doesn't automatically make him the "devil" or the bad-guy. **there were moments where little Jane playing coy was a bit grating but i appreciate that he isn't shy about telling Jane Patrick that he wants to be with him, see him - hang with him more often then not. that made this ep more enjoyable cause seeing another 'bottom' act like a fragile shy moron - couldn't stomach it. so i liked that when push came to shove little Jane knew what he wanted & went after it, didn't wait for Jane Patrick to always make the 1st move. ****************************************most of the other character's where ok - nothing stood out, well other then Put, he looked more angry at the fact that little Jane was interested in Jane Patrick & wasn't avoiding him. wonder what the story is there - cause it didn't only seem like friendly concern to me.

took me freakin ages to finish this ep, as was stuck in the scene where everyone in the office took Shu out for a farewell dinner & i had a bad feeling Takoi would be browbeaten & pushed into confessing... idk that didn't sit well with me. *********************i really hate when people r dragged out of the closet before they r ready, even more so for people who r just discovering their sexual orientation. so i get Shu not being able to give Takoi the time he needed to come to terms with his being in a gay relationship, but the fact i get it doesn't mean i like it or his behavior - as he had his whole life to come to terms with who he was & how the society would react, let alone how he would deal with said reaction. **********************************************but just cause he fell for Takoi, the sec he wasn't rushing to admit his feelings or show enthusiasm at being gay around people who were strangers or even friends, that mean u cut Takoi off cold turkey not giving him an opportunity to voice his POV?!? idk - it felt a bit gaslighty... so i wasn't really looking forward to Takoi confessing, cause he was basically manipulated into something he wasn't ready for. so as much as i am enjoying this - that whole scene wasn't comfortable for me & i wasn't really interested in watching it. but we over it now, lets hope Takoi isn't manipulated in the 4 remaining eps... ugh

maybe i am the pessimistic one, that can't see the innocence in Chiharu's actions, but he is a bit self-involved, he confessed & decided all on his own, when to start & end this friendship - that this was the end of what hadn't even started, cause he was sure of Wataru's feelings or lack there off. even if he thought Wataru would NEVER reciprocate his feelings, the decent thing to do was to inform him of his migration. they were supposed to be friends after all - u don't ghost a friend that was good to u - like WTF. so Chiharu decided for everyone cause he doesn't do goodbyes or isn't good at goodbyes - bottom line, he only cared about his own feelings, not the people he was leaving behind.. wondering what happened.. always wondering WTF happened - that isn't a nice thing to do. **********************************************************************************************************the whole story with the mother was nut's like WTF was even that, but it got solved in a blink & that annoys me cause that isn't just whim that's whatever. it can traumatize children - but here it was used as a plot point for the mains to meet as kids & nothing more meeh

well WTH is the only word that comes to mind... for a while now, been wondering WTF is going on with Chiharu's family, there always seemed to be something off there - as he got this weird look in his eyes when he happened to mention anything family related. even his excuse for not inviting Wataru over, was b.s cause like Wataru he could've just tided up. but he wanted to avoid Wataru coming face to face with whatever was going on with his family. ****************************************************this kinda putts me off him even more cause it looks like he keeps wooing Wataru getting under his skin & making sure he got used to him always being around & then suddenly disappearing - when it's the 1st time someone "noticed" up & treated u like ur special - little wonder Wataru fell so hard & now is convinced he is in-love - ok he is in-love & cause of the strategy used little wonder. & i know i might be unfair to Chiharu who might just be as naïve & pure in his intentions & actions. but idk just rubs me the wrong way

so they met as kids, but why was Saeki dressed as a girl? what is his family backstory??? & even though he keeps telling Wataru it's enough for him that Wataru isn't pushing him away & letting them stay friends. it's a bit disingenuous, as he is lowkey gaslighting him as no matter the words that come out of his mouth, his actions r totally pushing Wataru & poking at his emotion's. & even though i understand this idk how much i like it.

i really like how slowly this romance is progressing, but i am so annoyed that anyone would make Wataru feel less then.... every time i see his face i smile cause he isn't just good looking, he is so sweet & pretty it's hard not too - this why i don't hink he is fitting for this role - they should've chosen someone who looked planer if i was gonna buy Wataru is a nobody that no-one gave a 2nd look too... but will try & get over this hurdle & buy that no one liked Wataru's looks until now ugh.. ************************& have to say Mika is very annoying - but i don't like the intrusive nosy type. on the other hands i totally love Wataru's guy friends they funny & fun - hope there is more of them

get that Sui got hang-up's cause of how the people around him treated him - after finding out he was gay - but OMG he is annoying with the exaggerated shy act, that whole scene walking to school caressing's his butt, until the scene where he flashed Harutora, was just annoying to watch. i get it, but it's hard to stomach & for sure don't think it's cute - it's annoying - but i think adults acting like babies is infuriating, so maybe i aint the target audience for this. the only saving grace is Harutora, i like him & am rooting for him in the hopes Sui will also come around grow a backbone & mature to be worthy of Harutora. ugh

well glad Mayama's traumatic past wasn't shared with Asamiya & he asked for time to come to terms with Asamiya's confession which is totally valid. also seeing why Asamiya feel for Mayama - a plot that i've seen in other BL's so nothing novel but cute all the same. still the vibe is very slow paced & i wont lie not hooked or that curious how this gonna turn out cause everything kinda predictable. for a sec thought Mayama's brother would become a hurdle but doesn't seem like it - oh well time will tell

i will never get over the trope in these drama's (regardless of the country) where a really good looking actor/character is treated like an ugly-troll that lives under a bridge. yeah Saeki is good looking, but IMO Wataru is wayyyy better looking - like by a lot. i wouldn't notice Saeki in a room, but i wouldn't be able to take my eyes off Wataru - just sayin - like make it believable, or change the dialogue to fit reality. *************************************************************************************************now that i've gotten that off my chest, i have to address another cliché specific to J-romance-drama's... i am all for women making the 1st move & not waiting for the guy to do it. but when u make the 1st move, u can & will get rejected - u gotta ready ur heart for that. just cause u mustered up the courage, doesn't mean the guy HAS to say yes. be graceful & walk away, if a guy says he is interested in someone else & he isn't dating - maybe he is letting u down gently? & not saying "ur not my cup of tea" to ur face cause he doesn't want to insult u - why persist & get all defensive & intrusive about it?? it's like the guys that hit on a girl & when the girl turns them down, they curse at her - i see NO difference & it's equally annoying! ****************************the ep was hella short or so it felt, that it didn't start it ended & i would like more backstory to see when & why Saeki who had countless gf's suddenly noticed Wataru. yeah how they relationship progresses is also something i would enjoy to watch but 'how it started' is the part i really love. so can't wait for more

i found it so ironically sad that until the end Naoya was terrified that he would turn out to be like his father & cause of that, everyone would abandon him, the fact that Takaaki didn't correct him - making it clear that if there was a chance anyone would turn in sociopathic megalomaniac it was him & not Naoya, was the only bitter note in this BL. i loved how this developed & there was more growth on Naoya's part then Takaaki, but their relationship went from something vague & fetishy to something semi normal - cause with Takaaki in the mix, there is no such thing as normal, as from the word go i am sure he developed a fixation on Naoya & was ready to do & did everything, so Naoya would allow Takaaki to be close to him. ironically cause of Naoya father he needed someone needy & dependent that followed him around like a shadow & would will to follow his every order - Takaaki gave Naoya the stability & support he didn't have at home - little wonder their relationship lasted as long as it did. cause it met both their needs. on some levels this was hella complex & cause of that it was very interesting & well executed. also kinda appreciate that we didn't have any NC scene's sometimes they add, but most of the types they exploitative & there to cover up subpar plotlines of acting. am so happy there is a special cause i really liked this couple (or rather i love Naoya & cause of him am willing to accept freaky Takaaki)... lol

Shu is very decisive, he knows what he wants he goes for it, but if he thinks feelings aren't reciprocated he is fast to cut things off.& maybe Takoi needed that wake-up call. even though i don't blame him, he hasn't come out to himself & isn't 100% comfortable being around Shu, in a romantic way - when they just hanging out in a platonic way he is fine, but the sec he sense tension he takes a step back & that's why i aint shocked or even bothered, about how he was fast to deny the allegations of him finally coming out. i get Shu, but he should be more understanding given everything i pointed out, as i am sure he noticed too - 1st hand, so why not have a conversation, instead of deciding for Takoi ??? oh well guess he is cutting his losses. this started off so cute & sweet only to end on a sour note... ugh
