BL MASTERLIST

I mean... i'll take it for a binge without any care that i will forget tomorrow, but this is your cliché bare minimun BL. Doing BL just because it sells.

A guy likes B guy
B guy likes a girl
B guy changes and now likes A guy
Let's make out of character conflict and make A guy who liked B guy from the get go and aproached him in the first place back out
Last scene reunion. Lock lips and call it a kiss.
THE END

This was cute and very enjoyable.

I did not get the game quite well and how all went like that but the meaning behind all this was beauty and they so sweet... so whatever.

It's an ok series. the first half is about one couple and the 2nd about the other one.

They both had chemistry, good progress and hot scenes.

Not to deep not too ridiculous and not too draggy.

A good watch.

This is a nosense mess

RIDICULOUS

Gay couple on the side. Lesbian girl with some back story but not much going on till the end of the series.

At the beggining I LOVED Ou Wen as a character, he was powerful, honest, sure of himself and his masculinity... He said important stuff that should be preached, like "why a gay man cannot be manlier than you?" or "i am gay but i have standards" . I felt that the second part of the series forgot a bit about that Ou Wen and focussed on his vulnerable side. Still, great character. Mark, our playboy most likely bisexual got the memo and fell in love deeply, as he should.

They are super cute together, but after the sweet and interesting building up, i wished that it went a bit less comical and more emotional at some points, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, i wished to witness much more love and development between them, i'm talking about intensity of bonding and emotions, not sexual (not that i would mind but is not what i missed). I missed the progress and the peace of the story completely, like if i jumped episodes and that's why i'm missing things between such important events and steps.
For me this was terrible writting. You want people to be invested, in the characters, their relationships... And for that you need to move us showing us the development, not jump out of the blue from pivotal moment in their lives to pivotal moments in their lives. I seriouly question if the production, specially the direction and writting team were the same for the two parts, because it feels totally different from the first 10 episodes.

Overall, is sad that they didn't had more screen time and development between important moments.
Still super iconic start and couple, i will miss them but all the lack of development made me less invested that what i predicted to.

It's cute. 

Nothing out of this world but definitely a sweet simple story. We are used to have a million for straight couples so keep the gays comming.

This was so cute!!!!!

Is a simple love story but very well put together, fun, sweet and cute.

It's also quite unique with the farmer that's 20 but looks 30 and acts like a big baby with dialect and the sexy slim city boy 7 years his senior but looks way younger haha.

Just a super cute simple lovey dovey story. Feels warm and good. Happy and seet after taste :)

As a series this ain't it. Quite absurd, way too cliché, things that are poorly acted and make 0 sense, not that interesting... But the two actors worked their chemistry.

They connected when they touched and kissed each others, i don't know if they truly felt the atraction (i doubt is about them being excelent actors lol), but it totally looked that way, like they wanted to be there with each other, even their kissing matched like it wasn't something new.

Great main couple. New storyline, plots, subjects of discusion... With this one it feels like the BL world is actually evolving in the right direction. 

Extra points for their cat like features, they are gonna send me, istg.

My biggest issue is that i feel that the after ep 9/10 things went flat. Quite disapointed with the last main arc of conflict and how they are dealing with it, specially Gene. he lsot his balls there.
The hetero couple is bad, just bad. I mean, the guy is a keeper, but the girl is stupid.
Still, at the end Gene never found his balls back. What if there's another obstacle in the future? Will he drop Sib again without considering his side? They could easily talked about it and agree to do what happened, withouth the hurting.

It didn't add anything worth it tbh. Just more couple moments and kisses, not complaining about that but you could sum up all that in 15 minutes and call it a day.

Another silly misunderstanding, and the character growth nowhere to be found. Gene keeps being unreasonable and puts himself and how he feels over trying to be a bit more understanding and putting more effort into the relationship, is always the other part that has to understand him. Sib keeps using white lies to get the things that he wants. 2 years and their communication is still worrisome.

The important plots during the episode, like abuse and mental health only were used as a tool with no ending or importance... You cannot show me a couple that has a guy being abussed and beaten the crap outa it by his boyfriend and move on without that having a propper endind or any relevance for anything.
And let's not talk about yet again another ending wedding for the straight couples that most likely only 4 cats are truly invested or care about.

Their chemistry is worth it, but like i said, that's 15 minutes between a nonsense of special episode.

Did i care about this mess? 0

I just hope this two can have a good proyect because their chemi is out of this world. Same as in their first proyect together, Destiny Seeker.

I truly think there's something going on between them for reals, and i'm never the delulu style.

This one was cuter and better than i expected it to be.
Kaloy is handsome as hell may i add.

Is a short not that over the top story, a broken heart wishing to be loved and a guy that has a crush on him and works at the hotel he is staying.
I loved that it was a realistic take, not messy exes, closets, cheating arcs... just two guys falling and trying to make it work.

I would love a season 2.
Kaloy hottest Filipino actor.

The series compiled as a movie, is ok to watch any of them, you won't miss crucial stuff if you stick to the movie.

As cute as I find this drama. I have to admit I'm growing evermore frustrated with Japanese BLs.
Additionally, what is with all the pathetic childishness amongst grown adult men when it comes to any kind of intimacy? It's just not believable. What reality do they live in?
Disappointed but not surprised.

I stopped after the birthday episode, halfway, i clearly knew how they were going to milk this and make the same boring plots that we always get till the end so we don't get to see much of them together. So may as well wait and binge skipping during the misery for me to watch their happines together for 5 minutes max. And... i was totally right, watching the 2 half of this series in one go was the best deccision ever to make the frustration shorter. 

The series itself might have been stretched beyond what the story needed but it was cute. 

If only they stop being scared of doing proper stories... hopefully soon.

Thank god that i waited till it was over and watched it in one go.
I would have been super frustrated otherwise.

All the improvement they made the last ep of 1 season went downhill and took them ages to be open and in love, till the very last 3 or 4 episodes Minato was as frustrating as it can be, so i imagine the torture of watching this weekly.

In one go is better and even if frustrating, not as much and you can be a bit more understanding.
The end is super cute, absurd plot that make no sense to make them move forwards, but at least they did.

Overall i'm just a tiny bit sad that such a sweet and strong couple went a bit wasted with all the nonsense filler, but happy because they are the cutest and they exist.

Darker and sader than the sequel Pornographer.

Also worse. Way worse.

And let's not talk abput the chemistry, here there's no much conection going on, much more lust.

Very solid. Mature, real, serious, well made and portrayed.
We all know some of the actors well and they not only are good at their job, but also have insane chemi.

You don't fool me, i'm familiar with your game. You two are a real couple.

Not only the main pair was superb and a great story perfectly portrayed, each character and relationship was good here, the brother with the deaf kid, the ex, friends... very well rounded series.

Excellent writing and storytelling, with a script that shouted realism and made sense to the brain. No ridiculous, unbelievable, plot holes. No exasperating filler episodes. No stupid misunderstandings due to lack of communication. Limited tropes. Good directing. A sublime cast of truly talented actors, with each and every one committed and invested in delivering their role - respect! 

Natural and believable character development, together with sublime chemistry across our leads.

Saw it unsubbed. 

Finally there was growth and their relatioship became what it should, two equals.

I guess it's supposed to be funny, but it's more embarrasing than anything.
They are not only 0% actractive, also have 0 chemistry and the acting skills of a shoe.

Jesus, why i do this to myself... Terrible, no plot, nothing happened and there was no ending. Seriously... why.

Meh, i like the main actor, Meen, and he is hot as hell, but the series started with an ok plot and went to a mess nonsense.

This is an indie super low budget movie. Keep that into consideration.

Is was good, Of course with more resources and better filmed could have been great. The actors did ok, it was too strong of a move to be made, the direction could have made it way more impactful.

Very sad ending, be warned.

I enjoyed this one quite a lot.

There were some stupid misunderstandings and dramas that came from mowhere and was totally just to kill time. But then there were other important topics that are unusual even on bl land that were adressed, like safe sex, STD, the fact that this is the first time I’ve seen the parents going to a psychologist trying to understand their son... this should be the bare minimun, but it's a barely seen sight.

The love story overall was ok, they are cute and have some spark.

Some cute short simple thing. Some silly misundertandings but you know the ride.

They are cute together but i wished for more moments and cute interactions, they were living under the same rooft. there was a perfect settign for a lot of cuteness, oportunity missed. But they were cute at the end.

Nice, easy to diggest.

Overall, it was beautiful and sweet. A gentle love story.

The try to kiss but touching each other's lips as less as possible challenge and lack of skinship lowered it a bit for me. This kind of stories where emotions evolve and love rises need a bit more of affection, skinship, sensations, emotional lovey dovey moments... and they need to make me believe it, not feel uncomfortable or barely meh. I want butterflies. It's a shame because the story and plot are good. It's just that it could have been so much better and lovable.

They also carried the bf who is a cheater plot for way too long and dragging so much you can end up being absurd. It did happen. And, multiple of events and arcs that were unnecessary took time from the actual good things that could have happened. I much rather hear more about the uncles love story than watching another dull moment going in circles.

A good premise that felt a bit short, but a cute story. When the series was being absurd and tedious, Mork's dimple made me go through it.

This was super cute. Perfect portray of first high school love.

The chemistry and acting was superb and the story well narrated, cohesive, made sense for the enviroment, age, everything.

Of course is super vanilla, has the stupidity of teenagers, lightweight and teen like, but it is what exactly should be. Still touches important topics for kids their age and treat things as seriously as it should be for a light weight lovey dovey drama.

The way they fall in love, the secret crush, the moments they have, their help to each others, the way they look at each others, even the clumshy, light and shy physical contact.

 It's the perfect high school first romance.

People that gave this a 10 are on crack.

I have my fare share of stupidity, even when something is really really bad i have to fast forward every episode and see it end. Maybe is to make sure it won't hunt me in my dreams.

SAVE YOURSELF, there's million of better things even to kill time and put your mind in blank.

I wasn't expecting something grand, we are talking about K BL, so baby steps are expected. But i at least deserve a cohesive and basic story that makes sense and i deserve to know a thing or two about th e mains so i can get invested. And they didn`t gave me that.

Both actors are good and easy to look at. That's the bright side.

I don't know how i am supposed to feel with how they handle the forgiveness and everything is fine at the end but whatever. Mediocre at it's best.

This is Taiwan, and it shows. Well rounded characters managing their real life issues. Deep characters that aren't unidimensional and a love story also realistic, with ups and downs, with characters that sometimes act foolish but never fake or like a caricature.

The worst part, as usual, is the way they create a conflict for the last 2 episodes just for the sick of creating one and fill in more screentime. And it's always one out of 3, this time the parents against it. 

That ruined it a bit for me, i much rather have them ok and focus the lense on other couples that needed a resolution that never came and was just an imposted one at the very end.

It is one of the worst bl ever made in history

I should have waited and binge while skipping, the plot is all over the place. I don't hate the series but they want me to take it seriously while doing this... i can't. It feels like a joke, absurd, all over the place nonsense drama, a telenovela.

The acting is also concerning, i bet not even them took it seriously, were embarrased and it shows.

Pond eyes, smile, hair, fit, arms... Whole Pond is the only reason  i could finish it. What a charming man.

The plot is the same ridiculous thing we have seen 10000 times. 99999 is a mess, no exception. Just stupid to make a bl and earn.

A really short one about a couple having a trip and spending their first night together. 

It was ok, nothing much and for it to revolve around sex, the it moment wasn't that it.

It has major flaws. In some ways it reminds me of 2gether the series.

Absolutely redundant, filler after filler and nothing substancial ever happens. I think i saw Jin being drunk and taken home by Bbom at least 5 times and they has 3 casts on their legs caused by football games. The pain i had to endure was bigger.
That ending was boring as hell.

I basically hated everyone here expect Bbom and his mom.
Good Ridance, i won't miss you.

This looks like some random thing you make with your mates fresh in college.
With this kind of bullshit the korean bl scene shows that it needs tons of work to do.

The premise was random and nonsensical but thought they could humoristically pull it off somehow. They didn't.

There's no love chemistry between the couple in the slightest so this is not even that much of a bl to start with, the last ep has some crying scenes that are kinda well pulled off.

Really refreshing. A series that was dark, intense and revolved around other major topics but had all the love needed. Thism was a good way of leveling uup the bl game ans showing that they can do much more, much better, and much more adult like.

Some things were a bit repetitive and brainless and other failed to be all that dark, twisted and intense to feel a bit flat and college like. But that's what they are so it's ok.
The acting was quite convincig and the love stories ok. Even if i love the quemistry between OFFGun i wasn't that invested in their progress as i wished. I don't know what it is, but at some points it was meh.

But let me tell you, the second couple, Yok and Dan... major feellings.  Their progress and specially the non verbal conection was out of this world. At the end was a bit flat... and let me say that i don't care if they are guys, if your partner wronged you, a punch is not the answer. I wished more phisical love between them as well, but still, they stole the sow for me.

All and all a very good series worth to be watched. Let's keep this on and make more bls outside the box.

Damn this was messy!
Expected a lot, i was comming after the hype from Gameboys, even paid for the suscription but that went wrong had to try again... let's not talk about that agony.

The thing is that Kokoy acting is bomb, has tons of laughs, specially the first two episodes are funny as hell. But then the story is so stupid, full of trigering and wrong premises and situations... the ending os cute again.

I think that i will remeber the first two eps and the last 10 minutes.

Thought that having a LGBTQ+ member on the couple will make things more plausible, man i was wrong about that.

What a soap opera for nothing. The story is imposible to diggest. I cringed a lot and skipped even more.
Too many couples, some absurd.

Ohm is still an statue, 95% hot 5% acting skills.
Fluke looks like a new born duck, fire the hairdresser.

2nd couple have a pass till half of it, then the soap opera eats them alive and we never see anything else of their love.

Stupid, overboard, lackluster.

Great story. Mature man, mature concept, mature issues... refreshing. It was simple yet deep, people that have real concerns and act and feel like people do.

I don't understand why we get a impulsive confesion a bit forced type of kiss but don't get a finally in love and consent one. Japan and their things.

It was short yet perfect, not dragging absurd issues or having stupid plots to fill in.
Tastefully done.

I'm on board with this trip, sweetness and sadnes, come and get me, i'm ready.

The plot is interesting, different and really well produced and delivered, specially visually speaking.  It got more and more confusing episode after episode and i think they wanted to go too far, too deep and is not perfect, many things still weird at the end, but overall, a good watch and  a unique take. 

Loved Rossi since Once in a memory,  i have a thing for actors that have expresive eyes, they just know how to get me.

Suspension of disbelief needed, and not because of the fantasy elements.

The story itself, the premise and idea behind it - great. It was truly a refreshing concept for a BL.

How about romance? It was decent. Lee Hyun Jun and Moon Ji Yong had a rather good and natural chemistry, Then there was also the problem of realistic progression of the feelings. I kept asking myself “when, why and how did Ji Hoon fall for Jae Woo?”.  Not to mention the strength of the feelings. My man, you barely met this guy.

Overall… I’m just not completely sure I understand the mechanics of this plot… It was also the part that made me question how far I am supposed to ignore logic and reality.

Overall, it was fun. I liked the characters and their interactions. I wish the show was longer so the pacing would feel more natural, put more thoughts into how the plot works out, and the relationship progression would not feel so abrupt.

Second part, this time from Films perspective.
I'm totally in love with this two and how simple, cute and beautiful this is. They carry everything with their chemistry.
Totally need more. Hopefully they will make it a saga.

Super simple and cute short.
A beautifully told and acted story, i went back to high school for 17 minutes.

This is what I mean when I say happy stories are necessary.

Not everything has to span a 10-episode series or develop on top of complex drama, tragedy and trauma! Let people have happy things! Let people take a break from reality and its tough stuff!

 I like this one a lot. Super sweet and uplifting!

Had potential, always liked meesed up friends circles with all their love lifes. But for this one, the mess was the plot and series.

Some couples also lacked chemistry and did not enjoy half of the series.

It was fun, but for me it lacked in the romance department. 

I expected more lovely dovey moments, glances, cuteness... in that sense was a bit dry.
Opposite side, the humor, i had tons of laughs.

Cuter than expected.

They had chemistry together, enough to carry the love story.

It made sense, had a plot, was strong and felt realistic.

How to destroy something that had potential part 325454.

Forced chemi between dull characters that doens't make sense and feels unconfortable, dull story, absurd ways of handling things...

Then they had the story, the core, the feels, the full on circle love that could tear us apart, with a character that had depth and emotions on his face, and a love that was profound.

¿What did they choose? The dull, expected and basic ride.

The last 3 episodes are totally an absurd atempt to bring us back to the basic nonsense, but we already saw the hearth that the other option had, the sparkles were there, so there's no way we will eat that flavorlesss arc.

Terrible decisions ruined this show.

Only the last 4 episodes were good.

They made Mr president boys super dirty and i felt cheated and robbed there.

I decided to give it a go even if i never like Oxin series all that much but man... this is next level trash but in terms of plot!!

We have a protagonist, Fifth, that it's the most pitiful person ever, his boyfriend cheats on him, belitles his emotions, disgregards his feelings, only thinks about himself and only he matters, throws emotional abuse at him over and over again... and somehow he is the culprit and all his friends treat him that way as well. They all make him feel so not worth of any good that he started to feel that way and be the one that is sad, sorry and asking for forgiveness and fighting to get back a guy that has made his self worth dissapear. And this is not the start of a series where everything will change and he will leave all this people behind, this is his entire life and story,

Hekeeps asking for forgiveness when it should be the other way around, when his self worth and moral is beyond the floor, we know his dad abused him and he is completely brainwhased, they get back togethers and the abusing bf never asks for forgiveness. 

FREAKING SOCIOPATH!!!!!! 

I cannot get on my mind how this is any good, since when the bad guy gets the happiness and everything goes his way and the good guy is gaslighted, abused and still gets the pain over and over from everyone he loves? What kind of moral this series has? it's ok to not have self worth as long as you get a boyfriend, even if he abuses and cheats on you it's ok because you deserve that?

WHAT THE ACTUAL F

I love than apart of teen or 20's love relationships nowadays we are getting more stories regarding adults that marry and form a family with kids. This is very important to open up mindests and put issues on the table.

It had deepness, and their strugless were real and according to their sciety and family issues.
Liked the chemistry between the daddies and it was very belivable that they were a 6 year old couple with a kid.

I wished it didn't end up with a cliffhanger that put the top in a bad light. The issue isn't what happeded, but the fact that he hidded that for 6 years to his significant other. That it's a major thing.
Overall i recommend to watch it, is more LGBTQ+ than BL.

The plot somewhat felt promising, the pairing was a cute one as well so it had all the ingredients to be at least average. But nothing added up.

I don't even understand or follow the story of the secondary characters. they come and go, something happens and then it's all good or never end their arc... what is this. The main couple as well. That time jump at the end was a sight.

If you're able to switch off your mind, your sense of logic and the need for clarity, then you'll be able to watch this series. Week after week I clung onto the hope that something will finally click but it only got weirder.

I enjoyed the faces of the male leads and i stayed for the long gazes, but 0 substance other than a good sweet kiss.

A sweet super simple short about a having a crush that also has a crush on you. Nothing more nothing less.

Simple, easy, basic, sweet.

Another one with potential that became redundant and basic.

I knew that they were going to give us this exact shitshow of a last hardship plot to fill in. This is exactly what shows do when they have no more story, nothing else to say and no will or talent to write deeper and touch you. They could have build more angst and on the shadows love and cook this romance more deeply and slower and i would have been inmensly happier. Even tons of flasbacks of how hard it was to live all those years as best friends while in love secretly would have been totally welcome. Instead they went for the basic route.

Lately taiwanese bls are on a slump, they just don't hit the mark as they used to.

About the second couple... one has good hair.

Short thing when they reunite. Was sweet.

Sweet way to wrap the story nicely.

Another interesting Filipino bl that ended up going flat.

Again, nice premise and idea. but this could have been sooooo much better if produced correctly. Also, the couple has not much chemistry and the sweet scenes, kisses and all that are forced, angels... no bueno.

Ended, again, sweet, but overall not that good of a series.

They make the sweetest short love stories.

It feels super raw and low cost, and they aren't even that handsome to me, they look very childlike, ordinary teens... and that's exactly their power, their charm. 

I cannot with the constat laughs, sitcoms aren't for me.

Their love isn't all that exploited and is just comedic till the very end when they kiss and bye.

Too much absurdity going on. Just not my thing.

Really good movie, they knew how to make a profound slice of life, full of deepness and a bl + LGBTQ+ movie, quite rare in japanese media.
I really conected and understood their issues, fears, life situations...

If you want a lot of bl, this ain't it.
If you want an slice of life with people that happen to be gay, look no further.

Too short to convey.

Get it but nothing happens.

a bit of nothing with good intentions.

Simple, sweet, cute and very well done. 

It does everything they could do and more in  a short of 7 minutes.

This was hella awkward.

Not much going on till the very end and it feels like old school bl. Now we upgraded and this no longer satisfy the bare minimun.

Nothing much, a boss at work rents a room from his worker. they are silly and bickering but after a while they look at each other and see that both are hot.
Silly misunderstandings, stupid subplots, drunk kiss, they date.
The end.

Boring, repetitive and bland. But yes, they are hot.
Even liked more the vampire thing they did together in the past.

Ok so... this is a REALLY low budget thing. After the 3rd episode there's no subs... maybe in the future there would be. The thing is, i was already there, watching them bawl their eyes out for cheating reminiscences and making a big deal about everything, so may i just see them find happiness haha.
Combining my bilingual ass (english & spanish) + 10 words that i understand from tagalog (thank you bl for culturizing us haha)  + the visuals... i think i got the picture. kind of.

Damn, this 2 friends that went on a road trip to clear their minds sang a song, drank a few shots and ended up habing sex crawling over the stairs of a hotel lobby LOL
I mean, If public is your kink... It was hot, weird, funny... all combined.

The series ended like that, they decided to stay together and THE END.

As they should. Another win for the gays.

The typical japanese issue of not fully developing a love story between two guys and just hint and stamp it at the very last second with a peck with the least amount of passion and love you can think of.

It's always so anoying when they do this, They have a good product, fun characters and a lot of promise and then they ruin it,

Started good but fell pretty flat in the middle. became boring and I started to not to care if they get together or not.

SAD

Kept everything light and happy.
Being completely honest, i missed the energy and feelling of the series, i wanted to feel more, a bit empty.

Also, they did an screening in thailand and we international fans have been waiting almost half a year, so that kinda cooled down the amazing feellings that the series left.

Still, i will always wish for a second season of the series where the present time ones can end up together as their love deserves.

This show starts slow paced. .There is a nostalgic feel all over it, with an early 2000's OST that helps you being translated. They use the color in a diluted way, costumbrist i will say, sometimes it evoques the ITSAY and Call me by your name vibes, quite brilliantly for a very small production and budget. Pay extra atention to the rooms decorations, each poster has sense there.

Paper and Sky, the main couple, have great chemistry and acting skills. The last part of episode 3 is mesmerizing. Starting from there, their acting just keeps raising the bar each second. Is one of those special dynamics that not many bl couples can deliver, is in the details, the smallest gestures of tenderness, love, the little touches, the fingers caressing each other's skin... Even i got the shivers. Let’s give a special standing ovation to the actor that plays Sky part, Fluke, he is a rookie, but not many bl actors have made me feel the desperate, needy, profound and agonic love that he feels with just his eyes alone.

Also, i have warmed up with Chris and Jeno love story, it was just ok, till the last 2 episodes leveled up the game, and gave us a why, it was hella cute.

Some plots could have been improved, especially the first 2 episodes and the 3rd couple all together, for me they could have been cut and instead focus more on showing more alone scenes of the two main couples, when they are face to face alone is where everything in this series is right and makes sense, too bad there wasn't more of that.


Overal, i am very pleased with this drama, came expecting average and ended with a treat. Totally recomended.

Surprising.

I honestly did not expect to like this series the first episodes, but i got used to the second hand embarrasment and got the vibe, the ridiculousness, the camp, the over the top... and learn to enjoy it.

Putting that over the top comical aproach aside, I liked all the characters, the communication, acceptance, love that actually felt like a real gay couple, unafraid to have phisical contact, friendship, cringe, 2nd hand embarrassment ... everything.
It became a tad too draggy at the end so i could have enjoyed it better if they drop some sub plots and ended it at 12 or even 10 episodes.

Is not for everyone, not memorable or love wrenching... it was nochalant, a fun joke... i didn't felt like i wasted my time.

Not the best not the worst.

Just something to kill time but the premise is good, the couple is cute, a good kiss scene and a nice hearth warming ending plot twist.

It was a cute short thing. Not too deep, not too many issues. Covid and meeting, there's that. But overall it was sweet and all.

 It won't hurt you and it will leave a sweet after taste. 

I believe is brilliant for a cozy day at home. That's the good thing about being hella short.

One of the best Kbls so far. 

They fit together like a glove, the chemistry is chef kiss and the story, even if nothing really new, flows well, doesn't feel dragged and things make sense. 

It's simple yet sucesfull and the actors were commited to their roles, what sorry to say but hard to see when it comes to bl from korea. 

From enemies to lovers plot that works and is fun because of their personalities. 

I could have lived without the always last plotline of something happens and it's best not be together but well nevermid let's try. But other than that, it was simple yet efective. 

Very cute to watch all in one take, a bit flat if go slow and watch it weekly.

Your typical rom com with stupid misjudging, interpretations, silly conflicts and nonsense. But the cute one, the one you like to watch time to time to just think of nothing and treat yourself with this sweet candy.

2 part of the movie, weekend. 

They could have made the misunderstandings a bit less stupid, but teens be teens, japanese teens take the cake. 

Again, kinda cute. Not a masterpice but cute. 

This was cute. A bit of stupidity of teens, a bit of discovering, a bit of sweetness... i enjoyed it. 

Kinda wished to have seen beyond that weeek.

Really enjoyed this one.

A really deep love with lots of scars since it started when they were kids.
The story is sad and deep but alsol beautiful and full of love.

They are so cute and in love...

In no way this is tropes free, but has an unexpected charm. Specially fun and enjoyable if you are into over the top comical nonsense. There's no much deep into it other than the acceptance of the families but it doesn't need more, it doesn't pretend to be an emotional wrenching drama, just what it is, fun.
I die with the musical moments, two characters are talking about something and it becomes a musical scene all of the sudden, with two not so good singers signing a definitely not so good song. The alone ones are truly a sight as well, amusingly bad and hilarious.

Now to the 3 bl couples.
The main, Ig & Ruk is probably my least favorite. Is a bit messy, you want to punch Ig on the head and make him understand the situations he is in during the first half. They are cute together and i like that both are masculine just in diferent sizes. I like when they get out of the stereotypes and don't pretend to make all the couples have masc/fem type of roles.
The 2 couple is my sweet spot. Kui is the handsome goalkeeper that goes on vacations with his friends and finds an unexpected love. I like how it wasn't dragged, he never liked a guy but meet the sweetest watermelon sunshine and just felt head over heels. He felt it, was honest from the get go and went for it directly. They are the sweetest couple.
The countryside couple, Ruk older brother with the cute famous singer is beautiful. They put the little deepness that this series has. Their love is strong and consolidated already, an steady couple.

I would say go for this one if you liked the comedy in Fish upon the sky, imagine that (specially the brother of the protagonist kind of humor) on a lower budget and production quality, mixed with bl loves from the past like Make it right. Take it to the countryside and you get Siew Sum Noi. An enjoyable turn off your brain watch.

Is a sweet movie, deals more with the hear impairment issue than with the bl love. 

The romance is quite tin tho, if you don't watch one or two scenes you would think that it's a movie about friendship. Sadly, this only covers the first volume of the manga, and there are other 2 where the love truly develops. 

Is nice, but if you are looking for a love story, is not quite the place. 

OMFG This is some weird, hard to watch type of movie, i have seen a handful of this japanese ones and still felt uncomfortable.

As usual they are awfully bad directed and plenty of things make 0 sense, but they for sure make you open your eyes as wide as possible and make you go through it.

Violence, rapists, deads... with adults and kids, and after all of that, love for about 1 minute and 30 seconds, then more of the first part. 

Not a happy ending for them, but at least one stays alive and the major rapist is dead. At least is something.

Some weird stuff.

Not bad but quite childish  in a sense of unrealistic. I get that this sells but at some point i start to want more realistic portrayalas of guys in their 20's.

It's cute, just lacks.

A good short movie about finding love unexpectedly. Is never too late.

The story is well constructed and told and has flavor.

This was a good series, full of life lesons and funny enough considering the main plot, realism when it comes to writting a consistent story and characters.

There were some points that felt unnecesary, draged or irrelevant, like a waste of time, and i wished to see more pivotal scenes where their fellings were growing and their love was getting warmer that somewhat felt missed during a few mid episodes. 

Other than that, i have only good words about it. Everyone was human (even the ghosts), they felt like people, complex, not traped on a stereotyped fake box, with flaws, fears... The story wasn't a chiché as well, and most of the actors were top level and i was able to simpatize, care for the characters and understand them.

Their ending is brilliant, couldn't have asked for a most perfect ending to this story, neither could have imagined one.
8.5/10

Reality show. Dating gay show.

A mess, clout chaser, cannot hold a candle in front of His Man

Way better than her sister series. 

Their story is more realistic, mature and cozy, the scenary of the voluntary on the mountains and reminiscence of A tale of Thousand stars helped a lot to elevate it from ordinary to quite good.

They make a really good couple, comunicate and understand each others well, the acting is ok and they are very cute and fit like a glove.

Simple and sweet.

One more of the bad and mediocre Thai BLs.

Same old story  two cute guyslove for each other but they suck at communicating their feelings
It should be all cute fluff, pure entertainment, feel-good watch but it was boring, felt dragged and is just 8 episodes long.

Has no spark at all.

One of those bl that feel like bromance.

Meh

They are cute together but this is stupid and bad for my sanity.

A bit dissapointing. Had all the ingredients to be a very mature, sexy and interesting story but went downhill.

First being slow and literally nothing happening for 9 episodes and when things happen to start moving they had ridiculous fall outs, baby crying... tedious. At least they are a hottie and a cutie and their chemi was ok.

The worst part is the 2nd couple not being developed. The start was even better than the main and their kiss scene set the bar high, then, stupid miscomunication and one moves to japan, the end. WTF, they had a gold mine and decided to walk away,.

Overall mediocre.

Quality production. One of those good philipino ones.
The acting is really good. A simple covid story that it's a door to discover two really intense and deep emotional thinkers. Love their philosophical coversations.

They need to walk their on way for now to hopefully, meet again when both are on the same page and ready to be together.

Hope them and we will get a second chance later on.

Not terrible as a movie, but so many triggering issues.

The storyline is a bit confusing because the movie starts with them two already having an story behind that it's not completely revealed ever. One wonders what exactly happened between them previous to the movie, we need the exact details of that night at the gay bar.

The teacher handles all this really poorly but the ending scene is the icing of the cake. The student deserves better. 

Run cutie, run.

Not bad. 

A bit of the all over the place stupid unrealistic japanese vibe but if you do a marathon is cute.

A bit of cute and a bit of empty. 

4 minutes are not enough but it was like a sweet comercial.

I don't know wtf i watched, but that bed scene was worth it. DAMN.

Our typical movie from China that ends with "gays cannot be happy, at the end everything will be suffering and never end up together.

Yeah most of them are ok and have some powerful stuff, but why always this movies? is like the early 2000 in Japan, when every gay movie was angst, suffering... the message is a bit problematic.

Not a bad movie still.

It was a good watch in one go. I can see why it would have been frustrating if it was week by week.

Your typical japanese people that have a hard time having emotional intelligence and undertand social interactions.

A bit weird and unrealistic at points, nonsensical, but still cute and okeish.

The line between cute, fluffy and cringe worthy, frustrating is too blurry here.   

I was getting annoyed by the stereotipical made in Japan cringe fest 60% of the time, 20% thinking that they were somewhat cute and sweet but kids and 20% being bored.

I'm not happy about this bls making me hate my entire gender 99% of the times. Outing your friend out of jealously and trying to impose your corseted beliefs over your child costing his happiness, cool women indeed. I'm not claming them and they are not welcome in my queer household. We have enough with the mainstream girls being constantly men shadows and oversexualized, we don't need this stereotyped evil ones here all the time.
Now after my rant, i liked this short series, a few tropes but cute ones. I think it was well done and i always love me some retro vibes. Also, loved the shirt kind of kinda not confesion, it was cute and emotional. The story overall was a plausible, sweet & sour comming of age.
Hated how both who did wrong end happy without consequences tho, they don't even have to understand their wrongdoings or ask for forgiveness. Hate when this happens, gives the wrong message.
Maybe it was the music plot, the bittersweet ending, the mom arc... It got me back to my first thai bl / queer movie, Love Of Siam. As much as i love happy endings and this type of "we love each others but cannot be together" get my heart broken the most, i still love them in a twisted masochistic way.
I would gladly devour a 2 season with a happy ending, even knowing that usually they are not on pair with 1 seasons, Nadao gave me hope and i am a hopeless romantic when it comes to fiction, specially when it's about my queer fam.

I enjoyed this movie quite a lot. Painfully realistic, with flawed characters that have to deal with a lot of shit and have baggages and personality issues.

Japan has 2 sides, the stupid soujo characters and this flawed humans. When they go for this route, is chef kiss.

Open endind, lots of chemistry and life lessons sprinkled.

This was a mess, with the lowest budget and production you can imagine.
The story doesn't flow and there are very strange non cehesive and out of character turns and plots.

The ending has some cuteness so i'll cut some slack because of that.

It was an emotional roller coaster.

You think it's gonna be a light hearted high school BL but it is way more than that.

All the fantasy i was your lover in another life is not really my cup of tea so this kind of dramas have it harder to make me fall for them.

Overall your basic kbl, not all that chemi but okeish and waiting till the next.
