Stellar
The chemistry between the lead characters are insane.. I have watched a lot of BL series and this will definitely go down as one of the best there is... the chemistry between the leads reminded me a lot of the actors from the series ''Addicted'' this was really good and I think they managed to tell the story very well and it felt completed even though each episode was less than 11 minutes it never felt short.. I would really love for them to make a thai version of this and stretch it out even longerWas this review helpful to you?
Stunning
Hands down one of the best BL series I've ever seen.. right next to until we meet again.the performance of James and Yacht were stellar. Yacht is slowly becoming one of my favorite BL actors, the way he interprets his characters are so versatile... I was really happy to see James in this series cause he was really underrated in the Love By Chance series as Ping and I was really disappointed when he didn't return for part 2. He showed he is deserving of a leading man role cause he killed this performance..

Problematic
This was a pleasantly good show.. but the lack of kissing at all threw me off.... If there was no kissing scene in the show I would understand it more... but the side couple kissed which leads me to believe the actors of the main couple did not want to do the same. I respect people's right to not do this but it made me story feel empty.. How can you propose to someone in the final scene and not have even shared a kiss with them ? If the actors did not feel comfortable to do so they should have found those who could. No one is asking for sex scenes but I think if we are being realistic the idea of them never having one kiss and ''spending the rest of their lives together'' is a bit farfetched.Was this review helpful to you?

BounPrem Flops in First Leading Roles
Between Us is really gonna make or break them because they have yet to give us a leading role.. and I hope it delivers cause this is one of the worse BL's ever coming from a bl powercouple.. right next to thats my candy from kim and copter.despite them being extremely popular BounPrem have not yet proven they can successfully lead a show and EvenSun being their first leading role together isn't a good sign. I must say the shining stars of this show was the boxing couple.. their chemistry was electric and I look forward to seeing Lee with Frank in Love Syndrome the series. These two in that bedroom scene their eyes were telling the entire story and it's so far my favorite part of the entire series.. also Justice for Nemo and his lack of screentime.

Chemistry A+ Story B
I must say at first I wasn't going to watch this show but I ran out of BL's to watch and decided to give it a go and I must say it's quite heartwarming and I'm pleasantly surprised by how good it was.. will give this show a 7.5/10.. though I'm confused why the show has 12 episodes.. feels like it could wrap up by episode 9.. there isn't a major plot there. Side note : the lead looked so familiar and then I realized he was one of the boys in Bo Xiang's friend group in History 3 : Make Our Days Count. happy to see he got such a big role.. he was my favorite when I saw him in that.The story could have used some work but I would recommend this to BL fans. I'm obsessed with Shi Cheng Hao who plays Li Gong and I hope we see more of him in the future.

1ST HALF STELLAR ! 2ND HALF HOT MESS
Giving it a 7 because the first half of this morning was just stunning.... the minute the ages up the main character the story went downhill... the age gap between him and the girl was cringey to watch and I hated that he was reincarnated as a girl .... I think it's a bit ridiculous... I don't think the time jump was needed.. the story could have ended beautifully with his death and the reactions to it and I WOULD have easily given this show a 10.. ohm pawat is slowly becoming one of my favorite BL actors.. he adapts to his role so well in everything I'VE SEEN HIM Play.Was this review helpful to you?

Underrated Gem - very relatable
I would highly recommend this movie to anyone looking for a real story you can connect to and this Japanese movie was so amazing. I'm shocked that this doesn't have a big following and it's only a 7.4 on MDL. but I want to let you know this isn't fluff. it's dark. it's gritty. its about a straight man who is going back and forth wondering if he can be with a man so he keeps having relationships with women and the back and forth aspect of it to me was really realistic and I connected with both characters so much in this show.Was this review helpful to you?
Deserved 12 EPISODES -
This show is so sweet and the chemistry between this cast is electric. it truly deserved more than 4 episodes wow. first time seeing the guy who plays Q but I may say I'm very impressed with him and I hope we see more of him in the future when it comes to acting cause he is really good at it. 3 out of 4 of the Male Leads are from Love Mechanics and I'm not surprised. that show has a really good strong cast of actors.. even the supporting actors from that series has nailed their leading roles in this one.the X = Quality TSHIRT was everything.. this is definitely top 5 for me this year.. it deserved 12 episodes. the leads chemistry is really good.

The Best FILIPINO BL EVER
THIS WAS MY SAVIOR DURING THE PANDEMIC !! I FIRST WATCHED THIS ON NETFLIX AND FELL IN LOVE.. THE FILPINO BL WORLD was such a force in 2020 and it hasn't been the same since... no one have been able to touch the magic of gameboys the series and I doubt anyone ever will. Kokoy De Santos shines in this and every other series he is in. he is truly at the top of the industry in his country when it comes to BL's. honestly no one else comes close.. this was really good.. the chemistry. the plot. it had the perfect balance of everything need for a perfect BL series.Was this review helpful to you?
Could have been a classic - Made me a fan though
I must say, at one point I was confused as to why they were so popular. Love Mechanics (2022) gave me a glimpse into it.. their chemistry is so good... but I must applaud the beauty of the Best Story. The last 10 minutes was tragic but so beautifully portrayed by them.. from the insane chemistry to the impressive acting.. they have just officially creeped into my top 5. btw The Best Story is underrated.. if it had more time to flesh out itself it could have been a classicMy Top 5 : Updated - Maxtul/TayNew/MewGulf/OhmFluke/YinWar !!

My Ride does what Enchante Couldn't
My Ride and Enchante were both two shows that I went back and forth with... and some episodes were really good and some were ok... but boy oh boy.. that finale of my ride was stunning.. the music.. cinematography. the amazing shots and thankfully multiple kisses from them in one episodes.. that's how you do a finale RIGHT !! this was a solid BL and I'm really happy to have watched it. on the negative side... I really don't need to see Yoon in anymore BL roles.. his acting is very bland and the straight couple in the show did NOTHING for me... the acting from the cafe guy was weird to me.Was this review helpful to you?

Pefection but a little flawed just like Daon
I initially did not watch this because I never am a fan of love triangles and I was conflicted because I thought I would prefer Daon so I was pissed he ended up with Shin Woo based on spoilers that I saw online.. but after watching the show.. I was never really rooting for Daon... I feel like he is too much of a people pleaser and he has too much issues and baggage that he has to deal with first before he gets into a relationship.. he is perfection personified.. but something about Shin Woo makes me want to root for him because he reminds me so much of myself. He's flawed but he's just who Tae KYUNG needs in his life at the moment.Also did Daon feelings just disappear in the last episode ? no way could he just move on so quickly and be happy for them... it didn't make sense to me

Edward Chen is a revelation.
finally watched this show and wow.... I didn't really hear much people talking about this but finally found it was it was so powerful.. I knew from the start XU Yang story was gonna end in tragedy but I still felt every pain of that moment that came... wow ... this show deserves all the flowers.. it's so beautifully done.. the music is amazing. really happy to see edward chen from your name engraved herein in this show as well. looks like this was one of his first shows he ever did . Taiwan has been really doing amazing when it comes to BL's lately... from Trapped to Because of You... I've really been enjoying Taiwan's work recently.Was this review helpful to you?
Top TIER BL
One of the best series I have ever seen... this is right up there among my fave Phillipine's BLs like Gameboys and Hello Stranger.. what I love about Phillipines BL's more than Thai ones is that we actually get storylines and the stories feel real... sometimes in the Thai ones the university storyline becomes so repetitive and redundant but this show felt so real and authentic and the chemistry between the leads are stellar.. I love the girl who portrayed the sister.. her acting was also very spot on. I would recommend this show to all fans of BL's.. its really a top tier one.Was this review helpful to you?
