Despite the fact that this episode has one of my least favorite devices (a flashback showing the scene that happened literally one scene before hand) and one of my least favorite tropes (thinking "i like you" was meant as a sign of friendship, not romance), this was cute, sweet and fluffy. It's the exact same premise as so many other series, and seems like it will be told in the exact same way, but I'm here for it.
Whats with the flood of teen actor shows lately, first When oranges fall, this & also Class crush crisis?!…
These are the types of BLs that are aimed at a younger audience, therefore the audience likes to see people closer to their ages in the roles/show and have the romance be at that same juvenile level. Not all shows are meant for everyone.
But writers PLEASE come up with something that TRULY requires medical assistance, instead of an empty cardboard box falling off a shelf and somehow requiring Thi to need help from Zo putting antiseptic on his hand. I know you need a reason for Zo to hold Thi's hand for an extended period, but show some respect for your audience, please.
I've mixed feelings so far. Loving Sakai Sho. He's just adorable. Perfect in these types of naif roles. That mop of hair!!! I like how open they are about their mutual attraction, while still questioning themselves. But Okumi is a bit too aggressive for my tastes. He doesn't seem to respect boundaries. It seems his attraction is primarily physical, although Ai-chan's honesty and loyalty obviously move him. 3 short episodes, and they already have declared their desire to be together forever. Might be the fastest pairing I've seen in a BL. But the synopsis promises some good drama to come. I'm sure Ai-chan is going to cry big tears at some point, and I can't wait.
15 minute episodes with 3 minutes of intro/ending credits is just stupid. Who is the brilliant show creator that…
Creators don't come up with the length of screen time. That is dictated by the network/broadcaster/streamer. They tell them how many episodes, and how long they need to be. They also dictate budget. That forces the creators to TRY to create meaningful characters and story lines in very limiting parameters.
Wow. You're THAT pathetic, that you don't know someone should be taken to the hospital immediately?
