First episode in, I was already super interest, second episode and I am obsessed, third episode and there is literally no going back for me. I love how every single second is just so precious
This season was so important, we saw so much of Kiyoi's character growth here it really is amazing how much he's willing to change for this relationship with Hira. Kiyoi knows how Hira is, that he must be brave and take charge in facing the issues cuz Hira doesn't understand a lot of stuff. He said as much in ep4 when he mentioned Hira being immune to any alluding and prodding, that he had to stop sulking for their relationship to continue. It's beautiful honestly, Kiyoi has been such a patient and kind angel
Just hoping there will be more of Hira's character growth in the movie, cuz ma boi barely growed this season
Considering that the first season wasn't toxic, it depends on what you label as such.
I think it's kinda important to realise there wasn't actually any bullying, at least not to them. We see it as very mean and rude, but Hira loves Kiyoi for it, and I don't believe we've ever seen him being hurt when Kiyoi calls him 'disgusting' or whatnot, instead he's usually happy Kiyoi even gives him such attention. Kiyoi on the other hand, as we later realised, never actually means what he says, a typical tsundere. I feel like this is all aired out in ep6 of s1, and they really came to terms with their feelings
There's Hira who actually loves Kiyoi at first sight, but deems his as a 'king' figure, someone who he can never reach. So Hira never accepted that he can be Kiyoi's romantic partner even though he is totally obsessed with him.
Then there's Kiyoi, a popular and handsome person who's actually lonely and wants someone he can truly be himself with. He fell harder for Hira who deems him as king, and who's world revolves around him. But Kiyoi did not want to accept his own feelings, and they manifest as words of disgust instead.
Kiyoi is ultimately right, Hira may have always loved Kiyoi, but only as a god. Hira never considered Kiyoi's feelings cuz he didn't dare to, until when Kiyoi finally was brave enough to express himself to Hira
I saw lots of comments about the bl/bromance/romantic aspect of the series, but anyone tell me about the plot?? Like was it good, was it exciting, was it emotional? Anything??
You're definitely not wrong, plot is bad. But i guess their chemistry and acting made up for it? I do think 8.8…
Maybe so in acting/camera work, I wouldnt know cuz theyre not sth i usually notice much. Plot? No. If you're talking about just Thai BLs, maybe you're right, not many are really healthy relationships and have a really good plot. But this is nowhere near the best for me, especially if it includes all non-Thai BLs
Tbh plot was really not up to standard, but the superb acting made up for it, especially War. The actors/actresses really make you feel them, it can get really emotional at times, and that makes it quite a memorable watch
I really don't like how they give plot armor (like overpowering) to the villain, especially the big one who looks…
I mean the Kim villain didn't really have 'plot armor', unless you count having a genius brain as one cuz he definitely has that. The big fighter villain dude was just super powerful and buff, and our two male leads may have been trained as marines and are novice boxers, but that's all, plenty more powerful fighters can overpower them. Besides, we did see big fighter getting beaten by both the leads individually at two separate scenarios after they had some intense training, so he's not unbeatable for sure.
I am only on ep 2 right now. Does this series have a definite ending? I understand that there is a season 2 in…
Tbh the main leads did manage to fight and win the bad guys and got evidence and stuff, but we never got true closure on what happened to Kim at the end. We only know that Interpol was ready to catch him, but we don't know if he gets detained, how long he gets detained, or if ultimately he ended up getting bribed out of jail by his politician friends
