This was a super cutesy first love, friends to lovers -type of show, with supportive, feet-on-ground friends and sister. Sure in BL-world it's a tale as old as time. But the acting was good, the couple were cute, the story moved nicely. And it has a happy ending. I really liked it and binged it in one afternoon. I'm stuck home with a flu so it was the perfect comfort show.
I'm kinda hoping there'll be a third season. Because the ending didn't really finish their story, more like everything's on hold. Kinda cute season tho, I like their dynamic and how well they communicate with each other.
I loved Pheem and was rooting for him even tho I knew this was an OffGun show. Dew did an amazing job at portraying Pheem's pain and insecurity, and the desparation of hoping and wanting the person you love to choose you even though you know the odds are not good. (I'm also a sucker for that hight difference between Dew and Gun.) The overall vibe and aesthetic of the show was fantastic. All the music was really well chosen. I really was hoping for Koh to get just why what he did was wrong and apology would've been nice.
I've gathered courage to watch this one for over a year and today was finally the day. Just wow. It's really good. In no way is it a good vibe movie. More a "if you're feeling down and really want to dwell in the feels, put this one on" type of movie. But damn is it well made, with excellent performances.
I just want to know who made the choices to use acoustic guitar versions of christmas songs as the background music? On screen you have a tender heart to heart moment between the mains and Joy to the World is playing. 😂 Thought the show was ok. Acting was very good and I liked most of the characters. Love seeing supportive mothers in BL's. But the pacing could've been a wee bit faster. I had to fight the urge to reach for my phone many times.
This was such a cute series. The ending came a bit too soon tho. The last episode could've been longer or maybe needed one more episode. I binged all 8 episodes back to back. The difference between the very confident and seductive AE and clumsy and a little awkward Enaga was awesome. Well played. Totally get Chiaki getting all flustered. The soundtrack deserved a kudos too.
I've tried watching Y-Destiny and didn't finish it cos it was all over the place and well, not good. I hoped this one would be better, since it focuses on only one story/couple. I was excited about Cooheart being something other than just a cutesy school boy. Max and Nat are really cute together so I really wanted to like this series because of them. The concept was interesting. Sadly it didn't work. The way the episodes kept going in circles and repeating the same things, this could've been a shorter show. NC is fun and all, but it doesn't carry a story. Even tho it was refreshing to have the switch in MaxNat's usual roles. Let's normalize the "femme boy" being the top. Pretty much ended watching this with 1,5x speed just to get through it, cos I didn't want to leave it unfinished.
Last episode felt a bit anticlimactic, not gonna lie. I kinda wish they'd had at least one more episode, so that the ending wouldn't feel so rushed. That way no need for such a dramatic time jump and they could've given Gao Tu and Wen Lang and their reunion more screen time. But it doesn't dull the whole show for me. It's still been a fun ride. I absolutely loved Hua Yong. He's the perfect obsessed and menacing babygurl black flag characted. And honestly, cast was good. The show had a good soundtrack too. Here's hoping there'll be a special episode or something.
Why am I watching spooky things at 2:30 am?! And why does Keng have such a perfect face? But damn that was a good episode. Didn't mind the ~ 2 hours at all. I just loved the tenderness between Khem and Peem in the "let me make you happy" scene. And while I did kinda hope the Charn&Jet from 0 to 100 vibe would continue, it's cute that they're slowing the pace a bit.
You totally roasted that guy… but duh, there are like only 4 BL actors I’d ever hand an Oscar to, tops.
Lol, no roasting was ment! I absolutely adore him and I don't think he's a bad actor. The dancing scene at the fair was what made me think how fun it is that he gets to also be silly as his character. Tho now that I'm rereading my comment, maybe it does come out a bit harsh 🙈
I remember watching Tle and Firstone in Secret Love and thinking that their on-screen chemistry isn't quite there yet, but that maybe it just needs a little more workshopping to let it cook. And they've cooked it alright! Also I'm loving how it feels like Firstone is just playing himself. This is based purely on his tiktoks 😄 That cliffhanger ending was illegal!! But here's hoping next episode will continue right where we left off.
Smiling, giggling, kickin my feet kinda show. But I was stupid and watched 6 episodes in one sitting. Cos what do you mean I now have to wait for the rest of the episodes to air?! And I'm a bit scared for what's going down in ep7 based on the preview.
I'm feeling conflicted about this series. If I was pissed off at pretty much every character for being such homophobes and horrible people, does it make it a good show? Since they really got under my skin? 😅 Really should've come with warnings. I kept hoping for things to work out and some sort of brighter future for the mains. Even with the luke warm ending it's not looking promising. If you're wanting to watch a cute mood booster, skip this one. At least the scereny was pretty.
Yeah the subtitles were all over the place and made it difficult to get into the story. Also couldn't really feel any actual chemistry between Jayden and Ian. I'd like to think I might've liked it better, if the subs were better and I didn't have toget annoyed by them all the time 😅 Acting was pretty good tho.
