S2 is so bad I couldn't make it through four episodes.

Well, I enjoy reading your posts and interacting with you, and even guys like great personalities - or at least guys with great personalities do. Plus, if you like someone, you'll find something about them that you find attractive. I'm sure there are guys physically attracted to aspects of yourself thaat you never even think about.

You are not weird. I'll bet if there was a vote, at least half would agree with you. I know that I do. :)

It's not a spoiler to say yes, it's a triangle - it's in the title! I get your wariness - that trope is usually really tiresome, but this is done well and worth watching. The rivals care about each other and there's no viciousness - they're kind of sweet to each other. In fact, by ep 3 you might be hoping for either a thruple or for the rivals to ditch the third guy and get together themselves.

There are actual scenes that resemble the ad photo above - it's cute.

I think it will be Mix & Match based on just their names. (Mix & Match is an expression, for anyone who isn't a native speaker.)

Ryu & match doens't have the same ring to it. But the actor playing Ryu was also in Gen Y - he showed up in the last scene, so he'll be important in S2.

I'm probably slow. but I don't know what you mean - I'm not familiar with what is distinctive about TT and Addicted fans.

I hope some of the deleted scenes they're posting are PhuKao. I think it's funny that even Solo's dreams are creepy.

In my opinion, no, especially if your ID reflects your tastes, because this doesn't come close to ITSAY. However, if you like Boss, he's totally amazing in it. I think Oxygen is dull and pointless with no charisma or chemisty in the main couple, and there's no actual plot. It's just two guys hanging out with one of them having serious jealousy issues.

So by the end I was ff through all their scenes to get to Boss's couple. and the Fujoshi's storyline is beyond tiresome - even the series' most ardent defenders loathed it. So I might try watching the first ep, and if you like the main pair a lot, then it's basically like that all the way through, so maybe the series will work for you. If you don't really like them, maybe ff through everything but Phu & Kao (Boss), who are a joy to watch.

Sorry. :)

ITSAY is tough - it has 4, 8, 9, 10, & 11, but not the rest, and a couple of them were only there weakly. I think it's on the border leaning into the "not-BL" side.

Well, that happened. I liked it, but if you're expecting a continuation of the story, you will probably be disappointed. If you wanted to see Blake Chang's body in skimpy BDSM gear, you will not be disappointed.

It's my fault - I'll indicate that my comment was satire.

Thank you - that's really good to know. About your last sentence, this is a BL, so that goes without saying. :)

I wouldn't call it " a bit dramatic" so much as "totally ridiculous (on purpose)". Several people objected to that scene as "sexual harassment", when it's just mild flirting.

I was parodying someone calling that scene "sexual harassment."

I wasn't serious - someone called a scene where someone tied someone else's apron "sexual harassment."

I was ridiculing people who were calling that sexual harassment. If tying an apron is sexual harassment, then everthing is sexual harassment.

That nobody could tell I was joking tells us a lot about how things have become - you took it literally because it's so believable that someone would say that.

What he was doing in that scene was called "flirting", but that distinction has somehow disappeared lately. There were people who called Leon's consensual courting of Pob "creepy" and "stalkerish" - won't the human race die out if nobody makes the first move?

TBH, I'm disappointed so far. I love the cast, but is the whole series going to be gang wars? I had trouble getting through this - it's really repetitive and I was hoping for a more comedic series.

It's hard for actors to shine when all they're doing is punching each other and running through alleys. Maybe this ep was just to set the scene and it gets better. I'm just worred the "keep it secret" thing will get old, and the writing isn't very sharp - actually it's kind of dull, which didn't appear to be the case from he trailer. It looks like this series is going to lean heavily on the charisma of the actors, and at least there is plenty of that. Nanon has gotten really attractive, and Ohm... yikes.

Anyway, I think maybe this is aimed at a younger audience than me. Or maybe my problem is that when I look forward to shows I develop expectations that are too high.

They work in a busy retauarant and eventually an employee would need to go get something there?

Don't you think he was more likeable in Ep 3? I thought they went overboard making him a dick in the first 2 eps, but I thought it was just right in Ep 3.
