This is what I like about Japanese BL that when it comes to emotions, it is raw, rustic, no fillers. If they want…
" Is less than 30 minutes per episode enought? I believe so. Any longer than that, it will be too heavy to watch." - I absolutely agree! This is simply amazing.
Will they ever learn a) that playing football is so damn dangerous someone will be seriously hurt, b) kissing in the nurse's office is always spilt by someone, c) kissing a guy maens you love girls, and d) falling for a bodyguard is a foolish thing to do. - Okay, 2 episodes left. I only hope there will be a lot of Bank in them.
I want to love this series, because Michael's amazing acting and Daniel's cuteness and voice make it worth watching. But then the script says "Bas stands up and has 30 seconds to aim at Marco so that his puke doesn't miss his beautiful face", which is just ridiculous, as is part of the car scene and the confrontation of James, Marco and Ait, and that spoils it for me. And wth does poor Marco have to take the beating Tee deserves?
Only one episode left. I want to see more from these incredible actors, but maybe in anther project, because after the complete disaster Why Love Why 2 has turned into, I'm fed up with sequels.
Well, now I'm really eager to see the rest of this series......but there are no eng subs beyond ep. 3???
That's why I have stopped watching Star Image series before they are completed. You never know when subtitles are coming (same thing with Kaleidoscope World and Dandansoy), and sometimes series aren't completed properly at all. I don't understand why they are producing three series at the same time, when they just don't seem to have the capacity to do so.
I watched this for War, and he proves again he is a great actor, so it wasn't a complete waste of time. But the writing was the usual 'girl turns toxic, boys are unable to communicate and lack cojones, mothers want to have grandchildren' disappointing Thai BL tropes.
The plot is neither realistic nor logical, unintentionally comic sometimes, and some of the actors have no idea about acting. But the scenery is beautiful, the soundtrack is beautiful, and those boys are so very, very hot. So all in all, I'm okay with this series. Let's suppose they are learning by doing, so their next series may be better in the aspects where they fail in this one.
Although ep 6 again has some of the technical flaws, things seem to be improving slowly but surely. Call me shallow, but I can't help loving this series. Btw, Ivo looks sexy with glasses.
I can't believe that season 2 was written and directed by the same person as season 1. 'The best way to avoid disappointments is not to expect anything.' True, but after that precious little gem of season 1, I did expect something, and now I'm disappointed.
In the opening, I was amazed at how seamlessly the product placement was with the plot - I barely noticed it.…
True, the teacher isn't the most talented actor. But at least he's a talented singer. His version of the ost song is beautiful.
About the grandma: She probably manipulated hot boys when she was a hot young woman, and she's had decades to improve her skills. So true to life, that girl.
There seems to be controversy about Sky's father being a gang boss. The truth is, especially in impoverished,…
It's exactly the way you describe it. It's the way Mafia works who is respected by many poor people because they support them with a part of their money. If it was 'only' chicken fights and gambling, it may even be tolerated (although I think it shouldn't because it tells young people it doesn't make any difference how you make your money). But the more powerful gangs make their money with human trafficking, dealing hard drugs or weapons etc. Nothing romantic in this. When the boss is rich enough, he turns into an honorable citizen, starting e.g. a construction business. But he will never be able to leave his past behind, like in Golden Blood or H3: Trapped, and in real life as well.
I have always loved War, but I had my doubts about him playing a high school student again, and I would still like to see him in a more mature role. But he's really doing great! Fine actor indeed,
