Spoilers ahead. Episode 1 was everything I hoped it would be! Tanrak's pure heart shines through from the start and it's clear that Barth's attraction to him is based on the fact that he's never met someone like that before. Gemini and Fourth's acting was superb and it's so great to see them back, and on a show that allows them to actually act as they're both very talented and haven't had a chance to really show their skills since Moonlight Chicken. I also like the early nods to the problems with Catholicism (and indeed all organised religions) - the fact that some of the kids are total bullies, the manipulation of a grieving child, and the fact that Father threatened to kick Barth out immediately due to his attitude (not exactly the merciful doctrine that the religion portrays) beautifully demonstrate the hypocrisy of religious people and the problems with a system of belief created to control the masses 2000 years ago. The boys' hands clasped over Jesus' chest was an incredible metaphor and a thing of beauty. I just hope that the start isn't Barth going to see Tanrak be ordained - I'm going to hope he's there to see Kongdech.The series is insanely important and I applaud GMMTV and GeminiForth for doing it. I know that I'll cry and I know that I'm going to love this series!

My Royal Nemesis Episode 8

TRIGONOMETRY I'm literally obsessed with their chemistry. I can't wait for the next ep. The transition between the past and present was soooo smoooth. I loved it. I'm just confused why she showed a trusting face to the emperor even after knowing what he did to her beloved. I was misdirected about her opinion on the emperor by the early episodes.

estar omg but this is a tough ep to sit through, this is my 3rd attempt & admit i really don't want too watch it 〒▽〒 but if i wanna finish this BL, i gotta fight through. but seriously need Wayu to sober the f*ck-up & stop being this drunk in love. i don't get why - no matter how good looking u think someone is & how ur head's spinning & ur feet wont touch the ground, once u get to know them; hear what comes out of their mouth & notice their behavior u return to earth ASAP. here no matter what Kirt does, Wayu still like a sheep to the slaughter & it's making me cringe hard. like everything he does is so freakin embarrassing my shoulders hurt, from my neck trying to retreat into my body aish... *************************************************************anyone with a lick of sense would notice Kirt was using Wayu & the carrot at the end of the stick wasn't just Wayu's own attraction to him, but also shamelessly using Singto. how he any different then Wayu's mother?!? ok Wayu's mother isn't just ready to put him in danger but she also does the same with her grandchild. *******************************************************but it's ok with Kirt cause he wants to catch "bad-guys"?!? using an untrained civilian that's in above his head, this ok - how? & sorry i am 99.999% sure that Mind is a much better option as bf material then Kirt. he doesn't know Wayu a sec & he is not just standing up for his man, he cares to be respectful & considerate - has Kirt treated Wayu with care - ever??? but Wayu too blind to notice anyone but Kirt - alas - his loss. ********************************************************************************************& really hate the crap where Wayu admitted shyly that he was a virgin - like sell that crap to someone else, so as a virgin he was ready to f*ck Chen in the 1st ep & would've gone through with it, if he didn't turn out to be a freak - but he's suddenly a shy virgin? why??? same with how he is flirting with Nut, what he thinks if Nut accepted his advances, he gonna just have Wayu pour him drinks?!? the writing is bad & Wayu is made out to be an airhead & given the responsibility he's got to bear, i find that illogical & moronic. but everything gets solved with Wayu having nowhere to stay cause of his mother's new "sugar baby" ok, i guess that's one way to move the plot & the romance forward

nero truong yuuji going ’ ’ where are you going ？’ ’ like he gives af gkookgsrmokbsmkomks i think this is an okay drama & it is pretty predictable but look i was gagged when they had to watch him help his pregnant wife into the cab. it is boring but it usually picks up in the end of an episode because of pretty good writing & i don’t think being boring is like a terrible thing that’s kind’ve the nature of workin g. & when his personal life & feelings bleed itno it towards the end like i mentioned it does hook you. it’s an okay production with great actors. i need you to understand i am extremely fatigued by amateur teenage high+school dramas this was a breath of parliament whites. i will say shingo is a bit reeky reeky but i don’t hate it. he definitely feels out of place but it’s okay when you’ere the main character to be honest ，it’s chsrming. this is the episode that really helped thjeir relATIOnship click to me. i don’t really understand how he could be falling in love with her until now. it’s his job to listen to her & understand her problems & a good drama dilemma of that same job barring him away from her too. i think voice+overs are tacky in a lot of the shows I’ve seen but i like it here. it feels like An earnest conversation with him & what he’s thinking.

Lu Feng's sister is the MVP of this ep, she cares so much for her brother & is willing to suffer so much, just cause of the love she has for him. after how he behaved she let him go & when he came back, she didn't just welcome him with open arms, she basically destroyed the papers he signed renouncing his inheritance. Lu Feng is lucky to have her in his life, she a better sibling to him then he is to her that's for sure. ***********************************************************************************************regarding the rest it was a bit of a mess, guess Zhuo Lan needed to marry to inherit her families company & she wasn't some pathetic moron that was deluded into thinking her love could chance a man. cause i was wondering WTF - especially when they treated each other like roommates & nothing more. so glad that before the end of this ep they already divorced. that was for the best. even though then i wonder if they aint married why there a clip online of a women wearing a white dress with a gun going after both mains. guess will have to wait & see. also am really happy the marriage didn't produce children - cause that would've been messed-up on so many levels. ***********************************************************************************i don't really care about the 2nd couple so will focus on Ke Lo, i have a feeling he is either Lu Feng's sister's son or just an intern Lu Feng has taken under his wing. doubt he is in a relationship with him - sadly he can't seem to get over Xiao Chen. & given Xiao Chen coming to meet him guess he hasn't moved on either - even though after the way he ghosted Lu Feng he got some balls on him to come seek him out after 5 yrs. can't wait for the next ep -

NLE Number 8 is supposed to be a lucky number in many parts of Asia, yet Episode 8 brought nothing but heartbreak.A hardworking father, a caring mother, and a loving brother. A family filled with warmth and happiness, now gone like footprints washed away by the tide. The wedding scene was almost unbearable to watch. Yi Chen only wanted to make his mother happy, yet he was forced to walk toward a future that was never his. Standing beside someone he did not love, he could only imagine that the person waiting for him was Lu Feng. It was a beautiful scene, yet it felt painfully tragic.The most heartbreaking moment came from his mother. Before she passed away, she finally understood that the love she thought she was giving had become a burden. She saw how her expectations had stolen her son's happiness and slowly damaged his health. In the end, all she could say was one word."Sorry."A single word carrying years of regret. A single word that arrived far too late.They were separated for four years before, and now fate has added another five. Yet some loves refuse to disappear, no matter how much time, distance, or sorrow stands in the way. They always find their way back to each other.But after everything that happened in this episode, my heart feels shattered into a thousand pieces.The question is not whether Yi Chen and Lu Feng can find their way back to each other.The question is whether the broken pieces of my heart can ever be put back together again.

another "fun" ep, ugh the heartburn this is giving me, it's like a train wreck in motion, where u see it going off the rails in slow-motion & u know it's gonna be bad, but u also don't have the power to help or stop it. in this ep we actually see Lu Feng start his villain arc, as if it wasn't enough that his father already started the process with yrs of abuse - psychical & mental, Xiao Chen & his family put the final nail in the coffin & pushed him over the edge. ***************************************************************yeah i get that Xiao Chen didn't want to, but was between a rock & a hard place cause of his mother, but lets face facts even before & even now, the one that suffered more was Lu Feng. Xiao Chen after the initial storm died down (after the revelation of him being gay) could move on with his life. he might've missed Lu Feng dearly & suffered mentally, but Lu Feng suffered psychical & mental - he was a bird in a gilded cage. he suffered so much so his sister thought up the fake engagement as his mans of escaping back to the homeland, so he could have a chance of facing Xiao Chen again. ************************************& i am sorry but if Xiao Chen couldn't bring back his significant other to the New Year's celebration at home, neither should Yi Chen. but he is a spoilt brat from start to finish. he couldn't even be considerate of his older brother. & he had multiple opportunities to bridge the gap between mother & son. let alone just give his brother they were on their way home. but why worry? that's too much work - so call me evil but as i didn't care when Lu Feng's father got at attack or died, i don't care that Xiao Chen's mother is in the hospital or that his brother might be paralyzed, if anything i feel like it's karma for being a sh*tty little sh*t. & sorry but this time around i think Qin Lang was in the wrong & just added to the problem. yeah i am hating on everyone in this ep - everyone but Lu Feng, i just feel sad for him. ******************************************************************dude gave up everything for love & time & again got abandoned & hurt, but it's ok cause he's the "top"!?? nope - so now whatever he does i can't really say anything as when someone is broken, they aint in the right frame of might to judge right from wrong, let alone which boundary u don't cross. he will be blinded by rage & as long as he gets his target - regardless of who they r - anyone & everything will be fair game & i get that.

Bian Ye is only 15?!?? i am sure someone referred to him as a senior & if he is just 15, then how old r Zhan Wang & Xu Yuan14? 13? i was under the assumption they were all around the ages of 18-19. genuinely donno what to think now lol - & if i had a problem with the 2nd couple before, cause of the power dynamic - now i have a problem cause of the huge age difference - this just turning out whack. also if i had a problem in the previous ep cause of the younger sister selfishness, now with thugs beating up the mother, this just making my point as to how much of a rotten girl she is. ******************************************* also given the problems the mains already gotta deal with why we need the thugs at every turn trying to beat them down?!? aish

i am so freakin annoyed but before i get into that, i have to say i don't get either brother - what they both dreamed about being "sugar dadies"!?? like WTF - i kinda get where Zhan Wang is coming from, given his health he rather focus on Xu Yuan who hasn't lived an easy life & it's something he can fix/help before he "kick's the bucket" so i get him trying to make Xu Yuan's life a bit better. & as Xu Yuan also has his grandmother's approval & they did take care of her when he couldn't. it makes sense. but in Zhan Xu's case i don't get him doing so much for a random student - why?!? cause he is attracted to him? cause Bian Ye reminds him of Zhan Wang & he feels like he couldn't be there for his younger sibling, so he is making up by helping a stranger? *********either way he's a doctor that's also a dentist(?) & conveniently he's got a dentist's office at home? but not enough money to pay the electricity bill? ******************************************************************************************************************** & idk what that medieval looking device was, but from what i know about devices that were used before electricity came into the picture, it was freakin painful & not sexy or arousing in the least - unless Bian Ye is into S & M, that scene was plain weird - ****************************************************************************************************************************************now the reason i am freakin p*ssed, i hate the sister - sorry not sorry but every time this b*tch opens her mouth & calls her brother a "jinx" i wanna drop kick her. she isn't just spoilt, but also an entitled little b*tch. why does her brother need to break his back for her? & her mother is grateful to Zhan Wang for getting her an acting tutor - but not filled with shame that her inability to educate that spoilt brat is putting an unnecessary burden on her son? & now she has to bow in thanks to a stranger that is younger then her??? ***********************************************************************************************************i am sorry but this f*cked-up & as they not living in the lap of luxury, leave that house needing maintenance, they in debt & the mother is in poor health - everything landing on Xu Yuan back & yet his sister is acting this self centered, but it's ok cause she is a fujoshi??? f*ck that sh*t - this not cute or funny, just infuriating!

Serenity05 Ji Ling and Ah Wu's story continues. I didn't cry during this episode, but there were some places that I came close. Four more episodes to go, and I don't know if I can take it.

It was another tearjerker and I cried so much that I had to watch it a second time. The second time was a little easier, but I still teared up. This episode (and the next) showed Ji Ling's story from when he was a little red fox and went into a lot of detail.

so the reason Yan Zhi is being a stubborn asshat, is cause his uncle is holding his young sister over his head, that's better then him acting like a moron that isn't ready to listen to reason, cause he think he knows best. but have to admit if i was Yin Qi, i would've given up on Yan Zhi in this ep at the start & bothered only about how i save my sister & my own ass - maybe my father too - cause even if Yin Qi doesn't know everything that went on when in his 1st life, he knows the out come & can accurately guess who to trust... so he should be able to find a way to give his father the heads up about what is going on & what's gonna go down - even if that endangers Yan Zhi. **********************************************************************************************btw i didn't think i could hate Zi Ming more but i do, i don't blame him for turning into the Crown Princes slave that does everything to please him & yet he was the one that thought up to idea of infiltrating Yin Qi's house so he could make sure he isn't plotting to the position away from the Crown Prince. if the Crown Prince had ordered him i wouldn't be this infuriated - but this came from him & this makes me see red. just glad Yin Qi knows not to trust Zi Ming anymore - even though him keeping him close is making me uneasy. it's like keeping a snake close to ur bosom, nothing good can come of it - ugh

day so the beginning shocked me. the part about his privates was not needed in my opinion....literally ....WHY? That was very uncomfortable to watch. I thought it was funny how Toto said Kanit was just his type after yelling at him. dude I am pretty sure that the guy at the store who was gonna buy suitcases was the guy that Lion was cheating with. Also this is just me but I really like the different clothing styles it helps me know more about the characters. Also I generally Think "Veha" is such a pretty name. Also the MondRyu think just makes sense lol. "Tofu face" is so cute because it's saying that He is a total softie and is cute. Also Akki being dumped, works perfectly in my opinion. Also love How Toto and Kanit are wearing each others clothes by accident it is so adorable. also I would generally be mad if someone ruined my stuff too so Kanit is valid. The fact the 3 of them ended up in jail while wearing nothing but boxers is Lowkey so funny. I also loved The Tattoos on their body. Also Kapook's character is so beautiful!!! All of Kanit's facial expressions got me dying laughing lmfao good job New with those expressions. When Toto saw the body in the vehicle I felt so horrible for laughing. "So many people would kill to be my passenger princess" Toto is right because if Tay offered me a ride I am never saying No. That man is too hot for his own good. I love How Kanit caught on fast when his boyfriend lied about being sick. I would generally be naive and ignore it. I also Love How Kanit was able to hide that he knew he was lying to him. Also the fact Kanit acted so calm. I would be generally crying. I find it Funny how Toto called Kanit "Mr.Boiling Tofu". already a pet name and they aren't even together. Also the fact Akki was like "hey stop flirting did you forget there is a cat who needs help!?" lmfao.

Wow! I can't believe I cried so much during this episode. It was very emotional. Ju Jing Yi and Tian Jia Rui were incredible. I don't think I would have cried if they hadn't done such a good job.
