I love how Tane and the dad call him Yukata to his face and no one corrects them anymore.

Season 2, yes! I just watched it, and the new season is coming July 2023. Hope it will satisfy my expectations, and continue as one of my favorite JBLs.

I can't wait to see how the relationship develops between the leads. They both seem nervous and hesitant.

Yeah, I wanted to like it but just can't get into it. I don't care for either guy or their potential relationship.

My first Japanese crush, after watching Alice in Borderland. I started watching a few dramas and movies because of him. Luckily, I get over my crushes quickly.

He was one of my first Japanese crushes, after watching Cherry Magic. I was so enthralled, over the course of two or three weeks, I watched a few of his dramas and movies.

At first, I thought the girl was charming, but her expressions and behavior became childish and annoying after awhile. Only made it to episode 7, even watching it over a span of 3 days. I also appreciate Jdramas that are shorter in length, so I think I'll stick with those. Rarely can these long dramas keep my interest, I get so bored and impatient.

I miss them. I wish we could've seen how their relationship evolved in a second season. The subtle and solemn atmosphere was such a comfort and enticing for me.

Yeah, he's too cute and sweet to not enjoy watching. They've written and directed his role well.

I watched this due to my brief crush on Akaso. It was okay, but I wanted something more between Yuki and Zoka. Not enough to watch season 2.

I watched this a little after Cherry Magic, and because of my brief crush on Akaso. I liked Mamoru and Yu's relationship, which was my motivation to keep watching. I enjoy watching stories where the main characters are good people, who treat each other well and this satisfied that desire.

I know I've watched it too many times when Tane is starting to become a bit loud and obnoxious? probably too harsh. I watched the first episode three times, and by the third time, I felt the boy was a little annoying, but continued on to watch the second episode for the first time and felt the same. But it really isn't the boy, who's adorable and perfectly casted. He's the reason why I initially loved it. Since, I've rewatched the second episode, and thought the show's stilI great, and the boy is sweet. It was just me. I think I just need to watch it weekly, even though it's given me peace and comfort. I can't overdo it and need to be in the right headspace. I mean so far, Tane makes the show.

I appreciated the side characters, but I would've preferred it focus more on the main characters. Nakata's whole aura is sexy. I wish I could listen to him read a romantic novel.

Overrated. I stopped watching one to three episodes before the finale, I forget. I found the characters, chemistry and story dull.

And she's really only hurting herself, because Yuki is going to do what he wants.

I agree completely.

Yeah, you're right. He should've used tough love on her, and just leave. Because clearly she is not strong and confident enough to accept that he doesn't love her the way she wants and loves him, and the end of the relationship. But I guess that's what the story is about, putting another's happiness over your own. Not realizing this has the opposite effect, and no one gets what they want and need.

I just wish he would've been firm to say he wanted to be with Shuhei, even though he loved her. Just end it, instead of stringing her along. I also prefer the second half to the first. But it seems the married couple doesn't really know what they want, especially Misaki, who loves Yuki too much to leave, although he isn't giving her what she yearns for, intimacy. Yuki knows he wants Shuhei, but wants to appease Misaki, and is only hurting her in the end.

I wish there was a clear explanation or resolution to this arrangement because I don't get it. How are they all going to be satisfied and and get what they need in this relationship. Who is going to be with who, or are they all going to just be with whoever they want. The men are going to be together and the woman is going to be with others. I really wanted Yuki to stop torturing Misaki and just leave her. But when they were deciding to breakup the situation, I was kind of sad. Now, I don't know how to feel about this ending.

I get taken out, especially when Honda would pull away from Suzuki. I would think: does he want to be there, is he uncomfortable, nervous; and not the actual scene for a moment. Then I would become preoccupied and compare during the other kissing scenes. But it seems there's been more of an emphasis and effort in recent years filming kissing/intimate scenes in Japanese BL. Maybe it will get better as directors put more thought and incorporate more passionate/realistic? intimate scenes. I enjoyed the sweet intimate scenes in My Beautiful Man season 2, Old Fashion Cupcake, The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese, and Eternal Yesterday. Hopefully more to come this year.
