BLove

yes yes ... I hear you. #1? How can I?  Well, I just love these two- what can I say?

Holy shit.

censored adaptation of BL original novel. No actual BL in it but the FEEEELZ

this should really be the gold standard of BL

I recently read in a review: BL often shows problematic/imbalanced relationships. Fact. TharnType is one of them. Type is more than a bratty bottom, he's dominant, selfish, impulsive, controlling and let's not gloss over the 3 instances of physical abuse . But it makes his role very compelling. And it's not like Tharn doesn't start out coercive. The show has weaknesses but I really like the power reversal. And in the end: the ice cube kiss. #GulfMew have the best chemistry & Mild as P'No = <3

If you ever need to feel like you are a someone's entire universe listen to Khun Yai for 12 eps. Love poems, gentleness, kindness, romance, 100% dedicated, nothing fake, like he has this laser focus on his beloved. yes, he also looks stunning in period shirts but in this one just take the feels. 

And the olive oil masturbation scene was a masterpiece.

a rare gem. Chinese Mainland BL without censoring. It got banned before it finished- just take these delicious 15 eps and treasure them well!

A second season that is not a simple relationship rollercoaster!

yummy. This has everything on my kinklist: mature plot, dark story, a young step brother, illegal fighting, light coersion, stunning acting, great chemistry

The Japanese are just the best at raw feelings, dark eroticism & intricate plots in a few eps.

amazing chemistry and well developed friends.

honestly my favourite HIStory installment. 

The sweetest, cutest mini romance. This will make you grin stupidly.

for a serious day. Heart-wrenching perfection.

It's based on the same web novel als addicted. BUT completely different. mature, well developed, stunning chemistry. Beware the ending. I actually deliberately avoided the last 2 eps. Sadly no man-handling. Despite the censorship their relationship is undeniable from ep 20.  delicious!!

End of 2021 is bringing us some out of the box BL. We're leaving the uni tropes and getting some gritty stories. GunOff are off the charts, great cinematography and writing & great support cast and second ship

Sweet. Cute. Funny. Mature. Great acting. Watch out for the support couple. #mykink

4 eps is way too short for the lovely story. Both MLs are stunning, no stereotipical BL roles, very decent  kissing all around.

I love Third (portrayed masterly by Gun) and I cried not because it's that sad but because his suffering resonates in me. Delaying my rewatch because I am afraid it will not give me the same delicious suffering again.

Saint & Zee=steamy!

The story is soo strong - super realistic med drama with a time-loop twist, but Deus ex Maschina at the end. So unsatisfying.

the sexual tension in this drama is wild - the cinematography and OST have me on my knees.

considering it's by MAME it's actually a very gentle relationship. Saint and Perth are not really ship-material but it's one of my favourites that I rewatch all the time.

note to self: DO NOT - I repeat - DO NOT watch season II. The reviews are awful. Don't spoil it by watching them milk a dry cow.

Somebody give that writer an oscar for creating Gene - the maturest ML in the history of BL - awesome chemistry

ohlala~~ Taiwanese Korean Co-production with lot's of man-handling

novel idea. very cute. vanilla. The role fits Singto to a T

Great chemistry, very suave romance. But one disgustingly fake HEA. Just skip ep 12.

intensly erotic & kinky, and mildly dark at times. Three things I always count on with Japanese BL. This one delivered and it was great.

amazing chemistry. lots of skinship. The top Korean  BL on the list

mini movie

sweet, endearing, slow-pace love story.

very vanilla. This could have done with a bit lot more skinship. 

they cast the holy trinity of BL and didn't make a BL - But 8 eps of fanservice <3

mini movie. Very early BL : 2004

watched the 4h fan cut, which is much better than the official cut . solid enemies to lovers

This is hilarious - I am laughing all the way to ep30. (what follows reads as sarcasm:) This is the story of 3 friends: 1 acquires a boy toy, 1 plays sugar daddy and the last developes a ginormous man-crush on a guy who cooks, raises birds, does half-naked kung fu in the rain, has a sexy motor bike, and bangages feet (did I miss one?)
I cannot believe grown men agreed to film this. XD There is no story arc. No continous story unfolds, there is no drama, no twist, no problem, just episode after episode of hilarious encounters (or if any progress can be seen, it's in the increasing degrees for casual skinship between MLs). So random - and what is going on with that ending? so abrupt. 9* for eyecandy, good skinship and hilarity. But nothing special.

cheezy. But there is just something about dancing men that's just really beautiful.

Mix and earth mini movie + MV. More pls!

mini movie

Special EPs are not usually my thing, but this one ties in nicely

Not the obsession/powerplay story it was made out to be. But very good writing non-theless.

hauntingly erotic.

Watched for Mild (P'No in LBC). Charming movie .
I either need to uprate WBL or down rate this. cannot decide. They should be the same

This was the first drama of the 2020 BL boom. Same writer who wrote most of the HIstory Series.

So much better than you might expect! Even Oh's story line really grows on you! Very good character developement and well developed friends

binged it! strong for a BL - decent for a crime drama. Still some of the best snogging 

The most hilarious parody of BL.

Watch for New, men in swimming trunks and some daddy-kink (the side couples are a mess in this one)

fun ride. some very good  scenes. I actually preferred the side couple in this. In the end it gets a bit cliché. BL outside the engineering faculty (although it's not like that is relevant to the story)

watch for MewGulf's chemistry and Mild as P'No is still the master of hilarious facial expressions. The power play got much toned down. Type is practically tame. Delicious skinship, but the story is meh with a dash of anticlimax towards the end. #trigger warning: This drama gave me slump

Better than most K-BL.

Expectation blown out of proportion. Not the tough love I hoped it would be.  And Vegas story line... dark and forbidden and ... sadly so disappointing. This could have been mature and 18+ but somebody forgot to edit the script into something adult. Would watch again for the grand budget & directing.

The dance scene is one of the most expressive and subtle things I've seen. I was quite surprised by this short series, although the story is nothing special.

I watched about half way so far. It's tricky bc the series explains a lot more details. Maybe I should have watched this first. Much better chemistry between leads but a bit confusing at times. 

Ep1: Off x Gun (Puppy Honey) - bit of a freaky friday thing.
Ep2:  (My dear loser) - the happy ending. beautiful Thai country side. They have  a very gentle dynamic.
Ep3:  (Cause you're my boy)   - -
Ep4: Pete x Kao: weirdly enchanting story. Kao being a bit bossy here suits him and Pete being obidient is very sexy. Loved the tangerine tree!
Ep5: Kongpob x Arthit. Weak story but powerful acting. and now it's really over :(

really really really cute and funny and well done. <== that's the most non-descript comment on this list. But for the life of me, I have nothing more concrete to say. The actors are young in this, so I don't feel the same kind of pull as with other dramas.

The tag is #wholesome. If you are still waiting for a dark, forbidden teacher-student story - this is not it

CAVE: only 1 of 2 get a HEA :(  - but good chemistry

Loved the premise. really something new. CAVE: it gets a little dark at the end. But there's a HEA

This one is actually very good. Good chemistry, good acting, solid story. But the middle and end were not my cup of tea story-wise. 

Really intense powerplay and role inversion, but I could have done without the rape scene.  but HEA of  a sort... #TagsDon'tLie

The lockdown video format is super cute. Feels very natural and more like an revamped Bravo lovestory

Another relationship rollercoaster. Not sure I can take it after Together with me 2.
1 ep in and it's already exhausting and a rehash of Together with me - will probably remain unfinished

pop-up BL. low budet, superficial plot developement, even insta-love. But really enjoyable. XD juxtaposed much?

MEOW **** 10/10 for the kitty play. That caught me off guard!

And the best line in the history of BL: 'Ey, does your shirt not have a button?' 

This one is colourful. Nevermind the story. Uea is beautiful. Every ounce of him exudes this and they let him pose like a model. A LOT.  Which is good because his acting is nothing special. 

P'King bringing back the guy-liner is also quite funny.

I actually loved the idea and dynamic of this. But it's a bit rushed at points and confusing. Mark was a great character.  They announced a special which would be an exptention but no airing date so far

Formula17 was the first BL I ever saw. Not just Asian.

Curious picture story format. Bad case of Second Lead Syndrome

actually a bit non-descript

based on a historical person. filmed like a tale. no great depth

sort of feels like a prequel to HIS - the movie. It's not, but you could watch it that way.  The end was a bit abrupt.

mini series. butterflies and coffee romance. open-end

mini movie. Same feel but not as good as 'Just-Friends?'

really well done body switch

MAME gone mainstream. Puppy love.
Prapai had huge potential and I loved the one night stand story but thereafter he's just too white knight

ah... this one had mixed reviews. Fortunately the Jongjie/XingSi storyline is my kink- so i loved this one. The rest is disgustingly sweet ;)

manga adaptation, but charmingly done.

TikTok web format. 5min eps, not high-end but really well executed considering

Is it even BL if the soul occupying the body is technically female?

faux-incest really works for me

that took a bad turn towards the end. I think this is the only time on this list I can confidently use the adjective romantic.

look beyond the childish title. Watch for the original OffxGun. Gun on the offense

Gun and OFF are awesome as usual. I like this slightly emotional abuse to their dynamic. But here their story is just superficial. Nothing compared to theory of love

 There are no cats. No one is a wer-cat either (I thought that would be it)

If you’re looking for a show with cute animals in it, you won’t find it here, and you’re honestly better off just watching dog or cat videos on Youtube.

yay for rocking the sub-genre!

time-travelling theme.

I can't even remember watching this - lol

Oho - look at Ohm suddenly showing off all kinds of cheekbones and flirting skills! He really outgrew the gentle features of He's coming to me. 

Strong start. Watch for the iconic kiss in ep 5. Thereafter your either love it or hate it.

somehow the age-gap is awkward... or they just don't feel comfortable acting together... idk

Gun as ML! But I think I preferred Gun as hapless, clueless senior getting seduced by a younger man. Very odd chemistry in this one and the back story is a bit ridiculous.

dnf. sue me. Probably works for most people, though.

dnf. 

Remake of Japanese original. This role does not fit Singto to a t. He's just too teddy bear to pull off the irresistible gay conquerer. I wish I could give this a higher rating...

Sorry, were you expecting a wholesome relationship or a morale at the end?  What part of the title gave you that misguided idea?   The problem is : what sissy-crap is this?

I am just not an anthology lover.
Ep1: story: meh. romance: soso
Ep 2: -
Ep3: for Boun x Prem - very nice dynamic. they are so adorable.

Nice flirting- but overladen with side stories.  

mediocre across the board.

bland.

boring
