The sweetness of a kdrama pair & slice of life comfort of a jdrama! perfect combo
The ultimate comfort romcom! Yeah yeah, there are inconsistencies in the writing but who cares, when the main attraction, the couple is so cute, unproblematic, comforting, and it gives you all the fuzzy feelings?Love main girl's obsession with food and her hangry demeanor that Tae Oh loves and cures
The mix of Japanese and Korean is giving us the nest of both worlds, the sweetness of a kdrama along with the quiet comfort of a jdrama.

Unexpectedly good
when i started watching this series, i wasn't expecting much to be honest. However, it was surprising good and got my attention from the 1st ten minutes and i got really excited.there were some scenes that made me laugh so loud. such as the slow motion school incident. it was hilarious.
it's just i wish that Fah had realized and confessed his love to Phu, i believe it would have been so much better and prettier this way.
there were 2 scenes that i felt it was laking more emotions. 1st, when they met again after 10 years, 2nd when Fah got bk to Thai after 1 year. it didn't really felt like they were surprised or excited or anything.
overall, nice series. good looking cast with great acting. give it a try

Sang Zhi and Duan JiaXu for life
It's been a few days since I finished this drama, but I took some time to reflect on it. The feeling of longing is still strong. This drama is so good that even after days, it still makes me sad to think that I've already finished watching it. During these twenty-five episodes, I felt very close to the characters, I laughed with them and cried with them. The casting was perfect, they really showed what good acting and chemistry are. Anyway, I only have good things to say about this drama that so quickly became my favorite. I highly recommend it!Was this review helpful to you?
it's a good bl
so speaking of the drama I like it a lot the acting the story line everything is good but what I don't like is the back story of yuan is not shown and the ending was a little unsatisfying for me and I wanted to see lilis wedding and stuff but they bombarded us with the accidental pregnancy trope in hereI like the family aspect of it and in my opinion it isn't incest ..
I loved the friendship between mr tan and quan but I didn't see any chemistry between lili and mr tan.
I liked this drama alot it's refreshing to see the plot in this not having a lot of toxicity and stuff
and I loved to see dr lin ( love him)...
in the end I liked this drama
so that's it

They knocked me out to make me fall in love with this series.
First of all, I have to say that I'm a VERY demanding person when we talk about series, films, and audiovisual productions in general. It's my study area too.So, when I say that this BL is a 10/10, I'm very serious about it. It's magic. Also, if you're worried about the age gap, don't be, it's completely innocent.
About the storyline, it's precious. You understand the characters and you fall in love with their development. The plot IS SO ORIGINAL! I know that's based on a novel, but I really have to recognize the director's ability to put that in a series, bcs it's so different from everything that we have in the BL world. It's a typical comedy Thai BL, funny, and exaggerated. But the way that they portrayed the characters made everything so delicate.
I also love how it's SO THAI. It's not a product made for international fans, it's for Thai people. The culture, the references from the 90s, it's so unique.
But all of them would be nothing without the incredible performance of Tar (Noey) and Bom (Thi). They both killed their characters, Noey it's such a specific character, and the way that Tar portrayed him was essential to the final product. And Bom too, since Thi character needed to be really REALLY cute, and Bom is adorable. The way that he was so natural, even with the character exaggerations, was absolutely lovely.
Really, I Will Knock You it's a magic experience, one of the best BLs that I have ever watched. It's amazing. Also, I love Noey for life, the best character ever.

The K-drama that got me into K-dramas
The K-drama that got me into K-dramasThis show is amazing, totally worth the hype. I used to watch k-dramas casually but this drama is what got me into this world.
The story is amazing I love the acting, the innovative soundtrack and "queer" factor that we don't usually see. You should watch it if you are up to a great laugh, good music, and a bit of romance.
Just go for it.

Zettai BL ni Naru Sekai VS Zettai BL ni Naritakunai Otoko 2024
0 people found this review helpful
From that moment on, he decides to dedicate all his energy to fighting against that reality, to preserve his heterosexuality at any price and not to let himself be carried away by the seductive reality in which he lives... until he falls in love with a boy, Kikuchi (Asahi Itō). , who rejects him just at the moment when our protagonist declares his love for him.
Directed by Ryuichi Honda and Tatsuya Aoki, and scripts written by Izumi Kawasaki, the series has two previous seasons: the first, premiered on TV Asahi in March 2021, and the second broadcast in March 2022.
Erina Koyama returns to take charge of the music. Meanwhile, the seven-member dance vocal group GENIC performs the theme song: "New Game!!".
The drama is not exactly a BL series but a parody of the genre, celebrating and subverting the most common Boys Love tropes.
Will the protagonist manage to fall in love? Will Kikuchi return to Mob's life, after rejecting him to return to Igarashi, her handsome boyfriend? Will Mob open his mind again after the initial setback and finally find love in a boy? Will Mob prefer to continue being a supporting character? Will he let the other couples, including his brother Ayato and his boyfriend Toujou, be the center of attention while he chooses to stay out of it? Will he decide to maintain his identity as a passerby or will he once again become the protagonist of the BL world?
The drama is a live-action adaptation of the manga series "Zettai BL ni Naru Sekai VS Zettai BL ni Naritakunai Otoko" (絶対BLになる世界VS絶対BLになりたくない男), created by Konkichi (紺吉) and initially released in November 2018 on pixiv Comic, and subsequently published by Shodensha's Feel Comics FC Jam label, currently reaching four compilation volumes.
In addition to the actors already mentioned, the cast is reinforced by Yūtarō Goto in the role of Ayato (excellent in the LGBT+ romantic comedy-drama 'Zenra Meshi'), playing the role of Mob's younger brother; Akihisa Shiono as Toujou, Ryō Sekoguchi as Hatano, Wada Hayate as Mayama, Yuya Tominaga as Jōji, a schoolmate of Mob, and many other Japanese actors and actresses.
The introduction of many secondary characters and guest artists, as well as irrelevant plots, which do not contribute much to the general approach, in order to keep the audience entertained, works against it. It is common practice in most series, but sometimes it gets twisted.
And here, to make matters worse, these gloating largely undermine the cohesion and coherence of the proposal. In fact, the creators did not hesitate to violate the initial conceptions of some secondary characters, in order to adapt them to the emerging needs of the narrative.
Let's hope that in this installment the shot is rectified and it manages to close with sufficiently attractive conclusions to sustain the expected adventures of the protagonist, which will surely be taken up in a later season.
However, the viewer has had to forgive many inconsistencies and more or less drastic or hasty solutions, of various characters and conflicts, and especially of the initial approach, since the series does not manage to fully embrace the madness of the original premise present in the sleeve. It is true that, for example, it manages to make fun of the BL topics contained in Konkichi's work, but the drama in all seasons has stayed with the most conventional ones and has left aside the truly ridiculous ones that would elevate the final result.
I am referring, for example, to everything related to attractive male ghosts that one can only get rid of by hiring the services of an exorcist (equally attractive, of course), something that also happens frequently to Mob in the manga, but It has not been incorporated into the series, and this has an impact on the story.
It is also regrettable that while the manga is made up of very short chapters that go to the essence of the main plot, in the series, despite the fact that each episode has an average duration of 25 minutes and is divided into two segments, it is not possible to the same effect of immediacy that it would have if they were a series of short sketches.
This season may hold surprises, associated with the fate of the character played by Inukai Atsuhiro, a charismatic and ductile actor who in moments of humor achieves hysterical reactions, exaggerated expressions and clownish gestures, but in moments of greater drama he reinvents himself in gesture and restraint.
If someone asked me: What's so special about the series? I would answer that I can't help but compare this one with the previous two seasons:
- A romantic drama that radiates a humorous vibe from the first season.
- A series that sacrifices its humor to show more romance and sentimentality in each installment.
- A comedy that draws attention for its exaggerated reactions and scenarios, such as Mob employing the strategy of "sacrificing" anyone who is nearby instead of being the new love interest or target of the young people in love who surround him and who try to win him over, or the frequent extravagant moments such as finding an attractive stranger unconscious on the street and suggesting that others take him home to recover, something that Mob admits happens to him several times a month and that always happens long wishing him that someone else would take care of the young man and that they would be happy together.
- A protagonist who gains maturity in each season, especially by abandoning his initial outright rejection of BL and gaining understanding of the loves between boys.
- Greater romantic interaction between the characters than in previous seasons.
-The idea of Mob continuing to break the fourth wall.
- It offers a unique possibility of making the public enjoy a plot so absurd that it gives rise to a multitude of ridiculous and quite funny situations that mercilessly mock all the clichés and common places of mangas and BL series.
- Inukai Atsuhiro's solid performance and his extraordinary expressive force.
- The hope that the many supporting actors and guests will become more memorable characters by having greater developments in their personalities and backstory.

Surprisingly fun!
I read a review by someone else and decided to give this show a try. THEN I realized that Choi Jin Hyuk was in it, and I wondered if I'd been living under a rock!Choi Jin Hyuk could read a cereal box and I'd be all in. He was terrific in this role. His deep, wonderful voice is a given. What I didn't realize was that he can be really funny. He is really good at micro-expressions, especially in the first part of the show. When he was trying to become more human, I just cracked up! A zombie on a treadmill will never not be funny.
I thought this show was extremely funny, until it wasn't. Midway through, the tone turned pretty dark, which I could have done without, but after all, it is a show about a zombie.
The supporting characters were just that - a bunch of characters! The rival detectives were a hoot, and the FL was sometimes irritating, but I appreciated her more once they became partners. And the FL's family? Too funny.
So, if you want a show that you can watch and turn off your brain for a bit, you might like this one. I know I did.

Might never watch it again
Okay so here me out, it had potential.I think if it was directed by someone else then maybe it'd be better. I mean, which director in their right mind would make two brothers lick each other's nipples?!!
The story and the acting were okay but I think the best parts of the show were the NC scenes.
Do have to admit that the ending was a little sad but it didn't really do anything for me.
Maybe if the actors acted in something else with a different director then I'd have seen their talent but Kiseki Chapter 2 wasn't it.
Hope they get better roles, really do.

Lame!!!
Already 1 year and I still have not finished this series. I had a great hope last year when I start, first is because of Xiao Zhan and the good ratings (back then).40 episodes is way too much!
The story line is all over the places, not sure what is the focus of this series? Is it love? Is it the war between Kong San and Melfork? Is it the long waiting time for the sea emperor? Is it about who get the throne? No focus at all!
in the beginning it seems like it is about Shi Ying return to get back the throne, but shift to Zhu Yan the stubborn girl.
I never saw this actress playing Zhu Yan before, so my opinion on her is solely according to her acting in this drama.
1. This Zhu yan character is really stupid and far beyond like. When the Sumo real sea emperor said : I want revenge, can she said that revenge is not good instead of teaching a stupid magic to send a "bird" to his mother??
Then when Sumo suddenly "sick" is this Zhu Yan so unknowledgeable to even don't know anything at all?? she think bring this to a normal doctor will help?
2. The actress acting is really terrible, especially episode 1 to 25. When she act happy, the smile ( the mouth, lips stretch like being forced) very unnatural and doesn't seems like happy at all. And this is happen many may times
When she cried, there's no tears at all. When she "act" with a wah sound her eyes is not "wah" she tried with the fake open happy mouth but it failed terribly.
When she "fight" every time need to spread her 2 hands whenever go down or do some magic action?
can see that she is not a dancer as well, her movement is so stiff and not nice to see. She always use a stuntman in every fighting (only rolling the body, not even falling down).
And her face so big, not suitable for the outfit?
This actress suitable for maybe police roles, her dub voice so sweet, but it does not suit her at all.
The actress playing Xue Lu is a better choice for Zhu Yan role.
So many unnecessary misunderstanding. This Zhu Yan isn't she always have big mouth and said what she think and feel??? Why when she heard her master want to leave priesthood she can't just ask him?? She suddenly have a change of character after the 30 episodes of very annoying character that worth a slap.
All the stories will not happen if this Zhu Yan did not do her stupidity since she was a kid until she is grow up.
I already watch the ending as I can't see further this lame story and lame actress.

Perfect
I thoroughly enjoyed this series! I loved the “slow burn” effect it had with the ML characters. I loved how the story unfolded. The only thing I would have wanted was more of Qian and Li Li’s story. I think their characters deserved that depth. All in all great watch and I’d watch it again!Was this review helpful to you?
