I'm fairly certain that you are a douche bag.

Asshole.

lol

Pulls YOU in, which, from your perspective, would be written as "ME."

lol

Wow.
I hadn't considered that there are just TWO episodes left.
This could be a major train wreck.
At this point, I don't see how the script believably brings these two back together in two 25-minute episodes. Too much blood under the bridge, so to speak.
Perhaps we'll see a show that doesn't try to do that, and is content with a credible, less-than-happy open-ish ending.
Which happens all the time in IRL.

Agree.

I can't find fujoshisan's comment, else I might agree with you. :)

You are not wrong. Excellent observation.
Speaking of Futami, earlier on, and even up to when Zen said "Ryo is my boyfriend," I thought perhaps he had already figured out that Zen/Ryo had a thing for each other, but wasn't quite sure.
I thought maybe he was maybe trying to help them admit it to each other.
I was wrong, but still, he indirectly pushed Zen into making that admission. :D

Bingo. :) Me too.

Episode 3:
Little brother is evil, and I like it.

ML is handsome af. No nose job.

That's what I plan to do as soon as they make ep4 free and I finish it.
I only half-know what's going on, but I like the evilness of the little brother; that's pretty easy to spot. :)

Episode 9:
Yes, I cried...so what? Sue me.
Both of these guys are excellent actors.
Ryo standing, looking at Zen at the apartment railing after you-know-what, with tears in his eyes, broke me.

Early scene:
Ryo: "I love you, I miss you, I need you."
Zen: "See? You never tell me that you love me, miss me, or need me, dammit! I don't know if this relationship can continue."
omg, lol, who wrote this?
Where is the director?

Zen was correct that much earlier on, his point was correct, but for at least two episodes, Ryo had been making his love, need, and desire for Zen's presence abundantly clear.
The last part of ep8 and the first part of ep9 were poorly written.
Also, where the hell did that melodramatic, orchestral Kdrama music come from? :P

Zen to Futami: "Ryo is...my boyfriend!"
OK, fine, that and everything that came after in this episode was worth the bad writing that gave us the manufactured crisis. I damn near squealed, and I'm old.

This and a few other recent Jbls, are going to make it hard for any future Jbls to go back to dead fish kisses and mannequin hugs. Good riddance to those.

It is just Zen, or have both of them been wearing the same damn suit the entire series?

This episode 9 features some sloppy bad writing.
You're right that the way it was presented, it makes no sense for Zen to say that.
Ryo spent half of ep 8 and the beginning of ep. 9 telling Zen how much he loves, needs, and depends on his attention, to which Zen replied, in effect, "See? You don't love, need, or depend on me!" lol

Oh look, it's Speech Police Officer Emil, jumping in here to police this back-and-forth.
Thank god for Officer Emil.

That's exactly what I wrote, Officer.
I wrote that after PoorTitties up above claimed, after I suggested she block me, that she didn't know how to do so.
So, I told her how to do so.

Any other questions, Officer Emil?

Listen, Emil, I don't give a shit what you will or won't "have."
Who do you think you are?

The chapter was SUPPOSED to make you cringe.
Do you think Black people being called "n****r" by bullies of any race in real life doesn't make THEM cringe?

Requiring writers to censor that language out of concern for your performative, fake outrage would be like requiring the makers of TYAL to blur every image of bullies physically beating the shit out of a fellow student. But you didn't complain about the physical beatings being shown, did you?

No, you didn't, because you're not concerned about depictions of bullying, you're concerned with making sure others know how fake righteous you are with your speech policing.

Try being outraged at the Korean kids in the webtoon who called the student a "n****r," not at the person telling the story to highlight that sort of behavior. Or is it your impression that the way the name-calling was presented in the webtoon made the bullies look good?

Before you jump me for censoring my own use of "n****r" here, consider that I am not telling/portraying a story about bullying. I am in a discussion about a story that portrays bullying. Let me know if I need to explain the difference.

You are lying, dear.
Our entire conversation disappeared, as only happens when someone blocks someone else.
Just to be sure, I tried to look at your profile page.
oops! No, that was gone too.

Gosh, child, you are sad and pathetic.
You keep saying stupid things like how you're not going to waste your time on "brain cell chickens" (whatever the hell those are) and "delusional humans" (not sure how one can be both a chicken and a human, but whatever), and then you crawl back, I guess because you don't have anyone else to argue with right now, and try to start an argument again. lol

I know you're not blocking me right now, because otherwise you wouldn't be able to write me. But remember, you can always re-block me. hahaha

The only "stupid" here is you.

"... cuz there's no way I'm gonna waste my time to argue with these braincells chickens."

And yet, you un-blocked me so you could come back and post this reply? hahaha
Are you bored today?

Yep, I think Taiwan would be the better choice.

ugh...I'd probably find myself watching it, even though I hated the ending of this one so much, and see it as a bogus "fuck you" from the director to the audience. A complete set-up.

Yeah, the mom's fucked up.

Actually, I'd like to see a remake, maybe from Korea, see what they do with it.
