USA - The half of it that hates Donald Trump as much as you do.
On See You May 29, 2026
Title See You
Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp.
I liked the vibe and acting here, but was frustrated by the legion of ambiguities, unanswered questions, and vague storytelling.
I have yet to understand why some directors choose to present as finished a film that leaves so many open questions as this. I have no problem with, and often enjoy, films that don't cross every t and dot every i.

However, when almost everything is left open to interpretation, and I don't feel I've been given the information I need to decipher the film's meaning, I wonder if there IS a meaning, or story, and/or if the director is just lazy. Or wants to seem deep, mysterious, and artsy for the sake of it all.

This review/analysis helped, but don't expect all your questions to be answered. Not even close.

Despite all my bitching above, after a slow start, I became engrossed and watched to the end, so it's not as though I hate the flick.

8/10

I don't know if I've ever seen full back nudity in a Japanese BL tv series ... I had to pause because I started…
I reacted strongly, too, but the only choking I began to do was of my own chicken, if you get the drift...

Episode 6:
First and most importantly, I'd like to thank the director for that gratuitous shot of Ryo's cute butt. :)

These two are an adorbs, sexy hoot.
What's up with the new, incoming trouble-maker's Dorothy Hamill haircut? :D

Episode 11:
The instant I saw that netting, I knew something horrible was coming... :(

I get why Wan Zhe doesn't want to mess with things now, but he seemed to have had a personality transplant when he was talking with He Xiang Yong. From the moment he reached the top of the stairs, and leading up to the altercation, he was a belligerent and selfish asshole, which is not who he is. Did I miss something?

I suggest a special episode in which we watch Chen Hao Wei walk around the beach bare-chested, in skin-tight scuba pants for an hour.

@etoks21 I actually agree with a lot of what you said, but these characters were obviously written to be broken…
hahaha
Well put.
We are def on the same page with this drama.
However, a whole bunch of commenters here think this couple is an example of a mature, ideal, loving relationship. lol

Nice burner account.

Dont' bother me again until you do so from an actual account, "Michael." If you do, I'll block you.

"Some of you are going crazy about actual romcoms and forget that REAL ROMANCE is not about "I love you"…
Don't bother replying further, unless you do so from a real account, "Michael," the homophobe bigot Christianist.

If you reply as "Michael" again, I will block you.

And, you are a Christianist bigot of indeterminate age, gender, and sexual orientation, most definitely stupid.
I finally got around to looking at your burner account, "Michael."
Why are you hiding?

If you reply, do so from your actual account, if you have one.
Otherwise, I'll block you.

Unpopular opinion - I really like this Docu-style way it's filmed (maybe biased because I love documentaries)…
I like it, too, partly because it's an original approach for a BL.

Episode 1:
Interesting.
Seems this could go in a zillion different directions, and I'm looking forward to watching as it unfolds.

I assumed the documentary feel would continue for the entire series, so I'm surprised we've already hit day 100 by the end of the first episode. Maybe it will jump back and forth between before/during/after the documentary filming commenced?

It's certainly original.
I'm on board. :)

"The toxic nightmare begins..."I AM. SEATED.They had better not be overselling just how dirty/nasty/vicious/sexy…
I cannot wait to see mama spot her boy with another boy's tongue down his throat and go into a major, over-the-top stroke-out. :D
The mom in the original version's acting was hilariously bad. I hope this time is more convincing. Clutching the chest and fake-fainting won't suffice this time around.

Perhaps projectile vomiting...?

I AM. SEATED.

They had better not be overselling just how dirty/nasty/vicious/sexy this is going to get.
If they are, I will slug a bitch.

Based on the preview, I suspect Azuma has had it with Kuji's asexual/aromantic act.
His, Azuma's, backtracking every time, after asking Kuji things like "do you want to get married some day," or "was the older dude a hookup?," or "I love you...but that was a 'report,' not a confession (which is just sad), is obviously wearing on him. He's sick of swallowing his emotions and pretending Kuji's coldness is okey-dokey with him. It's not.

Plus, it's been clear from episode 2 that he would REALLY like Kuji to f**k him again.
Sometimes, Kuji strikes me as a bit of an emotional sadist, withholding sex/affection out of some twisted pleasure doing so brings him.
