with the deep emotion of his love for Wen Xiao becomes his most powerful defense. The scenes with Wen Xiao and Pei Si Jing in the prison were touching with some sisterly bonding. Unfortunately, the scenes of Zhou, Ying Lei and Bai Jiu tracking down Ao Yin were, constant, constant cringe as the three 'heroes' constantly act stupid and incompetent. Just for laughs, I guess. This show gets real stupid real fast when it tries to force humor. It's just not done well. And the constant, weird vying for Bai Jiu's affection by Ying Lei is old and tired.

Other than the occasional rare bit of truthful fact, 99% of what comes out of his mouth is childish, cartoon-villain drivel. Why do the heroes sit there listening to his BS for the longest stretch of the middle this episode as if he's some sort of sage nostradomous? At some point you'd think they would have simply recognized that he's a nutcase and stopped listening to anything he says. But for some reason they sit there enraptured while he slowly burns up, giving his stupid villain monologue before he dies.

If I wasn’t recommend to watch this series, I would’ve stopped watching it as soon as the corky music - that was too loud - came on. The acting is the other thing that would’ve made me stop watching too. But I will continue and see what happens in episode two.

This episode was definitely different from the last. We were taken deeper into the characters and got to see them beyond how they normally present.We see that Dean, even though he was presented to us in Ep 1 as the life of the party, is actually losing grip on his roster because of his non-commital behaviour and he does not like to be alone.Moth on the other hand, despite presenting a cold and prickly exterior is actually a softie at heart who loves going to the arcade and having fun. And is willing to befriend someone if they respect his boundaries.Though I'm a bit scared for him because I feel hes opening up to Dean too quickly and he can't see that Dean is love bombing him. I fear when Dean inevitably hurts him he will retreat so far back into his shell.Sigh. I think Ep 3 will be heavy and I'm mentally preparing myself😬😬

This first episode had me at the edge of my seat!! I screamed the first 2 minutes when Est and William first showed up on my screen and then when they immediately dove into a kiss!!This is a complete 180 from their previous main lead series Thamepo and I'm here for it🤭🤭Don't want to spoil too much but their chemistry is just off the charts and they are such talented actors. Definitely looking forward to how the story will unfold. Its gonna me messy for sure and I can't wait😂😂

The Romance of Tiger and Rose Episode 13

IrenaK She has finally realised she has feelings for him! 🤗 But I get why she pushes him away. She compared them to Huayuan and Xuanhu — two completely different worlds that were never meant to meet. She thinks their love is doomed, because she has to return to the real world at some point and Han Shuo will remain nothing more than a fictional character in a story she wrote. That means only one thing — there is no chance they can have a happy ending and stay together for the rest of their lives. 😥But I do hope Xiaoqian realises soon that she has become the main heroine of her story and she's the one who has to see it through to the end, not Chuchu, who is gradually becoming more and more of an antagonist. 😔

NLE What a great episode! Hitting each other one minute and then making out afterwards. These boys definitely know how to kiss. It was so passionate and natural that it genuinely felt like they were real boyfriends in real life.Not only was their NC scene hot, intense and thrilling, but the moment James could see Ken’s colour while they were intimate and Ken covered his eyes and continued completely got me. That was insanely hot and such a unique touch. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an NC scene quite like that before. Probably one of the best NC scenes I’ve seen.But what made the scene even better was that it wasn’t only about the physical intimacy. Their words to each other made it so much more emotional.James asked, “Then do you love me?”Ken replied, “Of course I do.”Then James told him that if he loved him, he couldn’t send him away again. He loved Ken too and didn’t want to leave him. Even knowing Ken is a Nour who never dies, James still wants to stay by his side for as long as he possibly can.That really got me. Underneath all the heat and passion, this scene was ultimately about James choosing Ken despite knowing exactly what he is and knowing that their time together can never truly be equal. He just wants whatever time they can have together. So beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.The Nour is now sitting at 8.7 on MDL, making it the highest rated BL on MDL right now, tied with Payback. Definitely deserves this spot!We are officially halfway through now and I’m enjoying this series so much. I just wish we were getting 12 episodes instead of only 10 because I’m already not ready for it to end.

An aphrodisiac might have been a bit too much, but otherwise it was yet another fun episode. 🫣 And Su Ziying indeed had an ulterior motive to mess with everything — he just wants to make Chuchu the Crown Princess!☝️

estar ep 1 & i've got so many freakin questions; is this a world where everyone knows of the Nour's existence? & is there a Nour community?!? where some r good & other's r bad?!? is that how/why Ken can have a job & live as one of the humans, otherwise how can he have a job & live among humans as one of them, when he is over 200 yrs old?!? & if all Nour's r thought of as demons/vampire's - myths??? & r solitary beings, who informed Ken that there existed someone that could kill Nour's? *********when Ken touches people, can he see their future? or only something connected to himself in their future? & as James also can read people - see their auras or something, is he a half Nour? what is he?? whatever he is guessing he is the one that can kill Nour's. also if i saved someone from offing themselves in a washing machine i wouldn't forget them no matter how long ago that was, so weird James hasn't connected the dots. ********************************************************************************also the people being burnt to a crisp, as they r usually drained of blood, does this mean the Nour needs to survive & it either takes too much or after a couple of time biting it's prey - said prey starts to turn, so the Nour drains & burns them making sure they wont turn?!? also the flash back where James is going into the burning house, where his father is being chocked... the shadow - was that Ken?!? so many freakin questions.. ****************************************************************************** but one thing i noticed - Ken NEVER looks James in the eyes (he did in the last scene when he crawled all over him lol) but most of the ep, he never meets his eyes, which i find kinda weird - why?? when he was talking to the doctor, that wasn't the case - so why. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************regarding the "2nd" couple - i know everyone mooning over Dr Jirat - me not so much, there is just something about him that i don't like. when James pushed Chita he didn't make an issue out of it - not enough IMO & he for sure ignored the guys bullying Chita physically. he is doing the bear minimum, but cause of how badly Chita has been treated cause of his disability he thinks the bear minimum is the world, that's sad & annoying. cause Dr Jirat isn't worthy of being hero worshiped, cause he isn't a savior or a hero IMO. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i really like Phong - he is cute & the fact he got the ball as a cop, to ask for a bribe from a fellow officer is kinda hilarious. hope we see more of him. **************************************************************************************************additional side note: took me a while to clock that "Ken" = Tongtong was Jet from The Wicked Game, he was my MVP in that BL (which wasn't very good IMO), but he made it fun to watch, he was the totally opposite from this cool, clam character here - so took me a while to connect him to the chaotic maniac from that BL lol.... am happy to see him again & starring in his own BL - much deserved.

as the saying goes communication is key & thankfully both mains spilled their hearts not worrying about the "what if's.." that was a very sweet moment & i was pleasantly surprised by the 180 this ep took after the catastrophe of the previous ep where Asamiya really put his foot in it with that moronic line of i love u like a mascot lol... so like the turn around but have to say i was more impressed by Sakaki reaching out to encourage & be a friend to Mayama then the mains uncrossing their wire's... but cute ep

A lot of this episode was very good. It was nice to see Wen Xiao finally getting more lines and a more significant role in an episode after being mostly sidelined the last several episodes. But my god, the conversations between her and Li Lun were like a roller-coaster going from her delivery of well-composed questions and answers and then sinking to pathetic Snidely Whiplash level cartoon-villain-speak pouring out of his mouth. Every time Li Lun speaks it's hard to not giggle at his ridiculousness. His arguments are infantile and his words are just silly and impossible to take seriously. I like the growth in Zhou Yichang's character. He started the show as just a dumb jock. Steadily becoming a more complete person, able to see and understand nuance.

Her in Focus Moonshadow Episode 5 delivers stellar performances from Bonnie and Film and finally gives fans a long-awaited Chan and Key moment. But after carefully building its story, the series suddenly hits fast-forward, taking Chan from a business arrangement to a declaration of love with little emotional connective tissue. We wanted the kiss. We just needed the story to show us how the hell we got there.Read our full review here: https://bit.ly/4xkatsP
