Absolutely! It was not just beer or anything, it was SAKE, and this is truly strong stuff! So I can feel with…
Could you point me to where it was indicated that the drink was sake? He drank it from a tall cocktail glass with ice and a lemon slice. Sake is almost always served warm from small, ceramic cups. In the rare instances when it is served cold, it's in a wine glass, and NO ice.
Starts strong, then becomes increasingly lame with each succeeding episode. If you like well-written BLs with plots that make sense, and in which young men act like actual young men, you won't like this at all.
Is it gonna be happy ending? I saw many cute posts on X!!
No. The Gorgeous Gay Gods get Hioki drunk and Gay Gang-Bang him, unwrapped, in a cheap motel at the beach, then ditch him there to find his own way home. The entire show to that point was a setup to pull one over on the loser nerd, who they all knew was crushing on Watarai. Wait, there's more...they film the Gay Gods gang bang (the Gods wore masks) and upload it to IG. Shortly thereafter, Hioki throws himself off the school roof, as bullied JP youth tend to do. But, Hioki has the last laugh from beyond the grave: Turns out he had a butt infection. The dicks off all four Glorious Gay Gods rot and fall off.
i really, really like ep 1 but as the series progresses, it gets more and more annoying. No hate to the actor…
Yes! THIS. I so agree with everything you wrote here. The fawning of the standards-free fujoshis over this show in this comment thread has reached the point of absurdity.
Am I the only person over 16 years old watching this thing?
How did this show start so strong, then become more dull and monotonous every week? wtf? Nothing much happens, and what does happen is relatively stupid...increasingly so. The weird, behind-the-curtain, I-want-to-hold-you-and-kiss-you-but-for-some-reason-I-won't thing in the earlier ep being a perfect example. Was Hioki always a helpless, female-coded, delicate flower who needed to be carried around like a child? How did I miss that? The closer we get to the inevitable, the weirder the dynamic between him and Watarai becomes. And the Handsome Deities, or Princely Gods, or whatever they're called...have they always been gay or are they somehow BECOMING gay as the show progresses? Not one of them has been seen in the company of a female, nor shows any interest in same. The boring, time-suck beach trip...again, just the Dazzling Dudes, not a chick in sight. Def gay. I think the one Prince's older brother is onto all five of them. Speaking of which, the older brother's younger brother is def the hottest of the Hot Gay Gods or whatever they are. And what was with the four weirdos who came over in the restaurant and wanted to make the Fab Four hang with them? Are they gay too? And how did Hioki get shit-faced to the point of nearly puking on one-half of one sip of a cocktail? Was it laced with Ecstasy or GHB? Did one of the weirdos slip it into the drink, hoping to later bang Hioki? At least THAT would have been interesting. At this point, the writing overall is terrible.
Such an odd episode in an increasingly odd series.
Despite the fact nothing's happening in Mob's own potential BL arc, I'm very much enjoying this season. The parodies of various BL tropes are mostly, hilariously spot-on, as are Mob's reactions to them. In general, the actor's facial tics and body humor are on another level this time around. :) The way he glides around campus with as little unnecessary movement or affect as possible, so as not to draw anyone's attention, slays me.
His brother Ayato's BF Toujou, looks so much hotter with the naturally dark hair. Wow.
After episode 3, I'm finding myself rooting for Ayato's friend who has a crush on Mob. So darn cute, even with that hideous, but very Japanese, haircut. :D I've been hoping Kikuchi would be Mob's endgame, but I guess I won't be wrecked if little Hatano scores instead. Speaking of Kikuchi, he rocks the eyeliner and attitude in the amusing opening credits music intro. When he sings along with Mob into the mic, I laugh every time.

Glad you enjoyed my rant. :)
What does the "Zettai BL approach..." refer to?

You know nothing about SAKE, do you? lol

I swear. I read the novel.
Also, what is it you want to know what hioki thinks about?

On edit: Never mind. I just saw that you found Therapy Game & Punk Triangle to be "great."
Mystery solved.
