Sad Ending/ Open ending BLs
I have had enough bad endings to last a lifetime, so here are some shows if you want to watch or if you want to avoid.
Sad Endings: From the characters dying, to them not getting together, to their story just being sad. Just cause it doesn't have a favorable ending, doesn't mean the journey wasn't beautiful. Or maybe the whole story was trash and they should have never made it.
Open Endings: just cause its open-ended doesn't mean it was sad.
Some titles might have a minor spoiler in the description, to help understand why S.E. OR O.E.
