Haha - no worries. The only other Japanese BL I'm aware of coming up is Senpai This Can't Be Love.

There's a Cherry Magic movie, but I don't know when that will be available - maybe late in the year.

I like this series a lot (I ff through the second couple. I recommend it if you're on the fence about this series - it really makes it twice as good), and I like that both the main characters ar guys, and not a guy and whatever an uke is supposed to be. But Li Gong has been consciously in love with Ze Shou since puberty. I don't need to tell you what boys do three times a day, especially if there's an object of attraction around him constantly. So he's spent at least 10-15 years spending a LOT of time imagining what he wants to do with Ze Shou. I know imagining it is different than actually doing it, but there is no chance in perdition that having gone through all that that he can lay in a bed every night with that muscled body right next to him without either going insane or having certain types of dreams that would require very frequent change of sheets. Probably both.

It annoys me a little because they're not high school kids - they're in their mid-late 20s at least, so there's no reason for this to be in the story, unless it has some significance to the plot, which it doesn't appear to have.

Yes. I'm hoping it's just the writer getting stuck and repeating herself to fill it out to 25 minutes. Better that than spending more time on the second couple. But I fear it's really foreshadowing. Their relationship is too good and there are too many episodes left.

I just ff through the second couple - it really makes it better.

I would be onboard for that. i'm getting a little frustrated with them beating a dead horse, but I do enjoy it a lot.

Oh. It wasn't too severe a deviation then - the orange scene wasn't much before they accidentally got together. In the manga they met at the moment Fukuhara asked him for a tour? I think it's better this way, otherwise it's a little weird that Shinomiya agreed to be his boyfriend 30 minutes after meeting him. This way he was thinking about him beforehand. I guess it could have been love at first sight - it happens.

But in the class he recognized that what he felt was being in love. In any case, your explanation is plausible, but I haven't heard it from him.

I think most of us have been in situations where we're insecure or didn't think we were good enough - but when you're in love (and he must be, or there would be no series!), you want to be around that person - Fukuhara seems to want to avoid and resist that, which is either such a severe self-image problem that he needs serious help, or he thinks it's morally wrong - which I suppose is possible if he's homophobic or he still feels like he's using Shinomiya.

Maybe I'm feeling that way because it's getting repetitive and stagnant, and feels like an excuse to not have gay stuff.

Yes, that's what I've been thinking - but the end of the episode was just plain terrible luck.

I loved the opening scene from Shinomiya's perspective. The "is it already rotten?" made me laugh. And I liked the interaction between them.

But...because almost the entire show is Fukuhara's inner monologue, I need to hear why he puts so much effort into resisting Shinomiya. He's even aware he's in love, so why does he resist intimacy? And I don't just mean physical - I realize lips lightly touching in BL is marriage and a passionate kiss is the equivalent of heavy BDSM in anything else - I mean all intimacy. It doesn't make sense. I get being shy about that type of thing - but don't you at least want to cuddle with someone you're in love with, or hold hands, or sit together on the couch, or have deep converstions with? They interact like acquaintances - not even good friends.

Why would he not like Fukuhara's real side? He's just willing to express out loud what most people would only grumble to themselves (espcially in Japan), which Shinomiya finds cute.

I don't understand what the "ones" are that you're asking about.

This is really cute. Don't be put off by the synopsis (or turned on by the synopsis). It's, well, the morning after.

Oh. I was thinking, "wow, talk about ovrerusing the 'toxic' label."

I've been told after a critique that "the novel explains that". I don't care. If I wanted to read the novel there's not much point to the show. I tried to read one once but it was so bad I couldn't get further than a couple of pages. I assume theyre reasonably well-written in Thai amd the English verssions vary in quality.

Anyway, I agree - if you have to read a novel for a series to make sense, then the series is bad.

The way I read it is he wanted it and Tharn knew he wanted it. I think he would have stopped if Type had told him to or pushed him away. Later Type demands Tharn f@#$ him so he doesn't owe him anything, which is obviously just "please f#$% me now" wearing a fig leaf.

Did I miss something? Have Vegas and Pete even interacted? The word "Toxic" is used too often - it's started to mean "not perfect". Violence is ceretainly toxic - I'll take your word for it in TT - I don't remember any except Kaohnah comically trying to strangle someone twice as big as him.

Did the verion veryone else watch cut straight to Mehta waking up right after Natee and Kheeta fake-kissed? It seemed abrupt.

This ep didn't make sense - why did Tua get Nuch's ticket but she didn't die, and why was she in danger or dying when she was fine just before that? And how many 20-somethings in this are going to die of natural causes? Is there some radiation leak nearby?

Again, more "convenient" reaper rules. Kheeta was really handsome this ep - I don't know what was different - maybe it's because he was being more assertive.

Yacht and Tae did a good drunk scene - that was way more realistic than usual.

I like Tua and Karn a lot, but I just don't care about their relationship. I liked Kheeta and Natee, but that scene in the doctor's room was ridiculous. I absolutley loathe scenes with totally implausible miscommunication. How hard is it to say "I like you"? Or, "I'm still getting over Prakan, but give me a little time, because you're 1,000 times hotter than him and there's no reason for me to be hung up on a guy with only one facial expression when you're right in front of me." OK, that might be a little carried away, but he could have said anything. Anything.

I don't see how they're going to wrap this up in one episode and have a satisfactory ending, but I guess we'll see.

For me the problem is Prakan. I thought the actor who played him as a child was better than the adult. I would have case Tae, Pat, or Yacht as Prakan and the others don't matter much. I just can't invest in the main couple because one of them only has one facial expression.

Has this cutie done something wrong or something? First he gets gang-raped in TharnType, and then they made him be in That's My Candy. Is it part of a suspended sentence for some crime he's committed? Well, he's in two upcoming series. I presume playing Murder Victim #2 and Hitler.

Well, I suppose sooner or later something had to depose Amore as the worst BL ever.

Dr. Pak looked pretty good shirtless too.
