Dude the acting in this drama has NO BUSINESS being this good!!! Why haven't I seen this before?! I'm so impressed. I watched a JBL a few weeks ago and was very disappointed with the acting, but found the rating was as high as 7.6 — how is this one only a 7.9 in comparison?! It deserves over 8 for sure
Yes, it's a BL for everybody except the main character who is trying his best to avoid getting into a relationship haha It's basically a comedy, lots of exagerrated/funny situations and facial expressions.
Skip to ep 8 22:06 for Mishima's real hair lol I mean, throughout the series he wore a combination of wigs and extensions, but in this scene, it's the actor's real hair, and he looks fabulous.
They labeled themselves as gay, tho it's understandable since the story was set way back in the 90s
The way it seemed explained in the drama was that Mishima knew he was gay & enjoyed cross-dressing, but wasn't sure if he wanted to use female pronouns. Kirino on the other hand was comfortable using female pronouns and expressed his desire to travel somewhere and come back a girl.
Crazy how it's always the bullies of gay people who are projecting and beating someone else down because they're actually scared of their own sexuality. All the talk about hating homos is so performative, like they're not even doing it to scare Mishima, but to try and convince themselves that they're not what they hate so much.
This is so cute—and also criminally underrated. For how long it is—5 eps—it does a wonderful job with the pacing of the story. The actors did so well and I found their reactions really believable. Plus, the scenery is beautiful!
i generally don't leave comments... ever, but this is the only airing bl series i find myself waiting for each…
Hioki is probably the most level-headed and normal BL character I've ever seen tbh. I agree that he just feels like a "normal guy." He has friends, he gets along with people, he thinks logically, and he's not oblivious to Watarai's advances. He's also quite sure in his identity. I don't find that he's insecure about himself or worships the four guys just because everyone else does. More like he's just aware that they're more popular/taller than he is, and he's fine with that.
Also what's your pfp from?
