American Fan:
At the same time, I'm not going to punish this series by giving it a lowball rating, like what happened with Addicted Heroin, just cuz it doesn't measure up to the original.
(re "LITA-J") Absolutely right. I'm enjoying it nevertheless, even though it's inferior to the iconic original. Also, it's short - and brevity can be a virtue.
American Fan:
Here's a few easy & cute first time BL recs.
I love all seven of these! And yes, "Tasty Florida" is not among the best KBLs, but I found it cute and enjoyable, even though the story is fairly predictable and doesn't have a lot of depth. As to "Kimi no Koto Dake Mite Itai", it's a nice story of coming of age and first love, but I'm not sure I'd call it "light and fluffy".
American Fan:
Marahuyo Project, and wondered if anyone has seen it or even heard of it? I'm undecided about whether to keep it on my list or not.
I've not watched it. I gave it a pass because it looks heavy and more LGBTQIA+ (identity) than BL (love story with HEA).

The Trainee? Did anyone else struggle with watching like I have?
If you don't like it after four episodes, it's not for you. I liked it, mainly on the strength of my fascination with Gun and his acting, but it's essentially a silly Thai comedy with a BL side couple.
