The last ep of Our Days was nearly unwatchable, although I was liking it previously - up to the elevator scene. After that it jumped off a cliff.

I think your theory of the story within a story is very likely true - but notice how paranoid Nut is about Tarn - like crazy paranoid, thinking he'd sent Tofu to mess with him. That suggests things ended badly for them.

It would also parallel the mother's story about choosing the wrong person, so I think there's hope for Tofu.

I'm not sure what's-her-name is evil - I think that might be a red herring. She hasn't done anything terrible so far, and everything she told Tofu appears to be the honest truth.

And yet it's been meeting that standard every ep! I'm surprised, but it's true!

Is it normal in Thailand to barge into your boss's home without knocking and sexually harass him?

But Jesus Christ those two... that scene was on fire and I haven't even seen it with subtitles yet. That look on Rak's face should settle the "is this actually a BL?" question. If he looked at me like that I'm not sure I'd survive it. Every episode of this has more squee! moments than most entire series have.

It also suggests that if a gay guy loves a straight guy and is pesistent enough, he'll get him, which is a good way to get beaten to death in a conservative society.

I'm about to give up on Ep 3. Almost the entire episode has been taken up by eating. Part 3 was entirely at a restaurant, and then there's a crispy snack placement at the beginning Par 4. This is really boring. And I still don't get the transition from psychotically angry - a whole year later Win nearly killed himself and his sister out of anger, and he totally got over it in a day. In fairness, it's not like I could stay angry at Earth (or share a bed without jumping him).

Does this get better, or is it pretty much all like Ep 3? I don't feel the chemistry at all - maybe because they keep switching back and forth.

And how many times are they going to say women are weak? Women don't have weaker immune systems than men - in fact it's slightly better and they have a slightly better cold tolerance, not that you'd know it from the thermostat wars endemic to the workplace.

Mission accomplished on the latter, at least in the first part.

Young teens are more sophisticated than people give them credit for. Which is strange because we were all that age once.

However, I've noticed BL audiences don't care for complex characters - when people make mistakes or lose control, like, say, a human being, they are not forgiven. Ref: Miracle of Teddy Bear where there's no mercy for a PTSD sufferer with anger issues.

I get it - BL is light entertainment, and sometimes you just want some fluff - but people still need to act like people or you can't connect with the character. Like Prakan doesn't appear to find going on a date with a reaper of souls to be alarming and has expressed no interest in why he can see them when nobody else can.

That is sooooo much better - I really wish they could have gone with that, because that line spoiled a great scene for me. Maybe we can get you a job writing dialog.

I'm a little taken aback by the comments section, which means twitter is 10 times worse.

Nut is a complicated and flawed character, who has clearly suffered trauma and abuse in childhood, which almost always leads to anger issues. This is a 24-hour drama (16*1.5) vs the usual 9 (12*45 min). He has to have a character arc, and that means healing and redemption.

For people to say he doesn't deserve love is so lacking in empathy, compassion, and an ability to forgive that maybe some people that feel that way should do a little self-examination. Is it worse to have behavioral problems due to PTSD, or to hope that person doesn't get the love he needs?

This is hands-down the best written BL I've ever watched - so much so that I don't think it's even a BL - in that genre there's usually little or no character development, which I can see is what much of this audience is accustomed to. The acting is also way beyond all but a very small handful of BLs.

It's so refreshing to watch something this different, that is willing to enter dark territory like childhood trauma and abuse, coping with death, and mental illness, rather than overcoming not hitting it off well at first with a potential love interest and developing feelings for each other because one of them trips and the other catches him and they stare at each other for an hour.

I just wish more people could appreciate this amazing series - maybe then we'd get more substance in our dramas. I watch fluffy series, too - I don't dislike them and I'm not disparaging them, but the same formula over and over can get tiring and sometimes it's great to get something so much more powerful.

But Nut doesn't know that Tofu is that innocent. Remember that he just showed up, looks identical to his first crush, behaves like his ex, and claims to be his teddy bear come to life. Just imagine for a moment how you would feel if someone you fell in love with did that.

On top of that, he has clearly been abused, and his mother suffers from a disorder. That's not an easy childhood to get through.

Remeber that this is a whopping 24 hours long. Nut is a damaged character who suffers from anger issues, which is nearly universal in people that have been traumatized by abuse. He'll have a long redemptive arc - that's what life is like, except most people that have had pasts like Nut's don't have happy endings.

I'm already preparing myself for a difficult ending.

Definitely - at least emotionally.

I haven't seen it - that sound like it would be a cute BL, although there's an element of D/s inhernt in the seme-uke dynamic.

She probably realized he was old enough to train for housekeeping chores.

Ep 12 was even worse.

But My Ride was really good - this was, well, it wasn't bad, because it wasn't anything, and nothing can't be bad.

If you enjoy watching paint dry, then you might enjoy the last episode.

Do you suffer from insomnia? If so, then it might be worth watching. If you're interested in what narcolepsy or being in a coma feels like, then I would try it.
