Finale: The best, most affecting, and realistic acting in the entire show came from nephew Ryuto at the restaurant table, in the last five minutes. Kuji and Azuma, on the other hand, managed to make career success, romantic clarity, a long overdue sex scene, and the sharing of a house key...dull.
"Here...I want you to have this house key so you can come and go as you please...BUT...you have to call me ahead of time when you come over." CLASSIC, passive-aggressive, yes/no, push/pull, give something/take away something Kuji.
To any objective viewer, Kuji is a bit of an asshole. He is so repressed and un-giving, that many viewers react to the slightest sign of humanity from him as though he's the most generous dude on the planet.
Recommended viewing, but only for those who find codependent, emotionally abusive relationships in which one partner is passive-aggressive af, to be healthy, and worthy of envy. Oh, and also...boring.
To member Elliot Rulez (who in reality, "rulez" nothing), who has blocked me, and their "review" up above:
"I doubt there was one queer person on the set." Take all your queers, faggots, and pansies and shove them. I will take gay actors, directors, and crew any day.
"And of course they did have neither a workshop nor an intimacy coordinator." Take your workshops and intimacy coordinators, and shove them, too. If your humorless ass can't see the hilarity in the mis-aimed and misaligned body parts and awkward thrustings, I don't want you watching my show, anyway. :)
"It does not mean that the actors in Fukami are bad, it's just they can't handle the intimacy this script and their roles require and so this series is a fail." You have zero means of knowing this to be the case. The ultimate calls are made by a person in the crew known as the...director. If you want to whine about sexual intimacy issues, at least aim your whining at the correct person. Furthermore, the leads were on top of each other and/or in a variety of gay sexual positions throughout most of this show; I doubt it is any reluctance on their part that kept the sex scenes from meeting your lame stamp of approval.
"...but it should be a BL and there is no vibe of it at all." HAHAHA...this is too stupid to take seriously, so I won't.
After reading your wildly off-the-mark review, I thank you for blocking me, so at least I don't have to see your tut-tutting, "queer" ass in comments. You won't see this rant anyway, but I feel better for having left it.
Finale: I never dreamed when I started watching this charmingly smutty little show that it would end with one of the most tender love scenes in BL history. I spent most of the episode misty-eyed and goose-bumpy.
The ending was sweet, but I was liking the idea of a second season in which they'd navigate the perils and drama of a long-distance relationship, only to end up happily ever after.
Sigh...I am deeply unhappy to see this one leave my "currently watching" list. :(
Bravo, Fukami and Akhiro!
9.5/10 The .5 off is for mannequin kissing. Otherwise, this would be a perfect 10/10.
the lookism yall have is ridiculous. stfu and watch ho.
If a five-year-old girl were playing the part of the police detective, and someone mentioned that she wasn't convincing in the role, would that be "lookism?"
Do you find some people more physically attractive than others, or do your eyes/brain (as small as it is) register everyone as looking exactly the same?
News says he was found deceased at his residence. Does not elaborate.
Oh. Here it is again. I guess it's not eating ass again today. I don't know what photo(s) you've found when stalking me online that you think are me, but they're not. It's amusing that you seem to think I'm a lard-ass fatty with cardiac issues. You're way off target, stalker. Maybe instead of creeping on Internet randos, you should consider eating some of that ass you keep yapping about.
It's comical and also appalling, the people below expressing how "shocked" they are. When are Asian celebrity fans going to notice that their suicide rates are through the roof and that one of the last things this news is, is "shocking?"
At this point, it's simply expected that once every six months or so, we'll get another entertainer dying by suicide in Asia, usually Korea. If you're claiming to be shocked, you're part of the problem.
Watched without subs, so I may have missed some nuance. Commenters below suggest the MC is a sex addict. I think he wants affection, but is looking for it in the wrong places.
This director does bits of dark humor well.
If anyone comes along who knows where I can watch with subtitles, please leave a link. Thanks.

This went over your head.
How could it be otherwise.

Did you come up with "lookism" all on your own?
Oh, and shut up, twat.
Here it is again.
I guess it's not eating ass again today.
I don't know what photo(s) you've found when stalking me online that you think are me, but they're not. It's amusing that you seem to think I'm a lard-ass fatty with cardiac issues.

Here you are again, instead of touching ass.
Enjoying the evil twistedness.
5 for hot/handsome leads who, sadly, cannot act.

I'll just assume you were bullshitting.
Why would you refuse to share a link to a video you cite?
