So... this went south fast but even though is bad I can't get over the "hair inconsistencies" of the main characters.…
The hair thing in every show can bother me LOL. I think one of the few characters that I let the hair thing go was Boun/Win in UWMA & Between Us mainly because bleaching is a little difficult to maintain...also he looks good so...LOL
Sooo, Blue is a Stage 3 Cling-on & super annoying, super immature, & for God's sake please grow a pair!!! My Lord!!
Couple of things...
~Him's friends being unjustifiably shady is nonsense. Te had been with Him at the hospital so why not tell Blue which hospital & let Blue decide to go there. ~Him needed to use his big boy conversational skills & send a text or pass the message to someone or something! ~Also, what's the time line here? Had it been a matter of hours or days from the time Him's mother is in the hospital to Blue's rude interruption at Him's restaurant? ~I prefer Nail when he's with his own friends than when he is with Him. Much more likable LOL
Like I said last week, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about the HimBlue relationship that sets it above others in the unique department. Shitty relationship & Blue moved away would be a standard, everyday response to such a crappy situation. If he offed himself that would suck but can't we just get to that point?
Now, if they wanted to make it interesting & something like Him went nutty one day, lost control & ripped off all of Blue's limbs & now he's buried in his grandmothers basement out west....THAT would be exciting & unique & TOTALLY worth all of this bullshit mystery. Ahem, sorry about that but really!!
I don't think I've ever been happy about a shows ratings going down TBH. Even the ones I disliked immensely have…
You are right...it can't compete & is nowhere near the train wrecks of Ocean Likes Me, Beyond the Star, & Our Story...this is not counting the ones I dropped.
I don't think I've ever been happy about a shows ratings going down TBH. Even the ones I disliked immensely have people that feel the opposite. Either way, these shows are still actors & companies trying to make it & while I can't directly support them, the last thing I want to do is be happy at their possible demise.
The bitch that I am though wouldn't mind Benz Panupun Vongjorn finding another profession though LOL
So the thing is...I truly want to understand & maybe even like Sunshine but more than anything I want to root for him AND Rain...but...what am I rooting for? Over half way through this series now & we don't know anything about their relationship, let alone anything that makes me give a shit whether they get back together. We know more about Rains OTHER relationships than we do about the one we should be caring about.
For all of the flashbacks, NONE of them show us Rain & Sunshine in their everyday life & relationship with careers & dinners & watching movies & going out, etc. The only thing we've seen is them fight & breakup. We barely even know anything about Sunshine & TBH he's not exactly hitting all of us in the feels!
Don't even get me started on the so far out of reach possibility of Kyu & Sunshine actually becoming a thing! IMO, Sunshine hasn't even looked, glanced, or even breathed in Kyu's direction with anything resembling adoration, intimacy, or even fun.
Do I consider this a BL at this point? Negative. I'm stuck here though because for some reason I need to see this through LOL.
TBH, I was frustrated, as usual, with Sunshine right up until he got up on that stage. Once he was doing his thing up there I truly enjoyed him...
6 months? I’d be done in a month, it doesn’t look like the guy even tried to initiate anything with her.
I was really pushing it TBH LOL. I agree with you. I was thinking of young love & the bullshit I would like to think I had the tolerance for back then but you are 100% right. Nothing about his body language said he was interested...
For me, it really has nothing to do with it being lighthearted. I can handle a little fluff & easy storyline,…
I did not take anything to heart...no worries! You weren't offensive at all! As this is a discussion/opinion forum I don't think there is anything wrong with expressing like/dislike for anything we watch as that is the whole point! We all like different things & it's important we all respect each other & learn from one another!
one thing i dont really get is that why people are mad with this lighthearted bl? its not bcs i love off gun and…
For me, it really has nothing to do with it being lighthearted. I can handle a little fluff & easy storyline, comedic noises & silly friends, maybe even a touch of over the top reactions & falling down kisses. As long as the plot is feasible & it all makes sense...great! I don't need "nc scenes & sensual moments" but I need the ML's to sell me on their ship...make me want to come aboard on their journey & be happy that I'm there.
IMO, these are veteran actors & they are a veteran ship. I think they are talented enough for any genre, especially together. I also know that they are 30+ years old & playing characters that are still going to school & still living off their parents is just a little too newbie for them. I think that they've shown us how well they can rise to the occasion with a drama. I was a huge fan of Not Me because it showcased how diverse they were. For me, Cooking Crush is just the same old, nothing new here, falling back on what we know type of genre & there's nothing wrong with it. It's just...the same.
Drama doesn't automatically mean it has to be dark it just means that I MAY get lucky & have no one talk about diarrhea, or maybe they won't act like they'll catch koodies if their SO touches them in public or in private, or maybe there will be no scene with ANYONE SITTING ON THE TOILET. Just a couple of examples of what I have found in some "lighthearted BL's". LOL
I think just as much people watch lighthearted BL's as they do any other genre. It's all about preference.
Soooo, my take on this is that Him...clearly has a type, & I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with that but for me it's just a little to alike LOL. But the resemblance thing is the least of my issues.
My main concern is that from what we've seen it seems that it was a shitty relationship. Maybe Blue was too clingy & obviously Him wasn't nor was Him attentive. OK, then what? From what I gather everyone liked Blue which is great I guess. Maybe they all blame Him for the breakup...ok great. I believe Blue is still alive & kicking somewhere right? Sooooo, this is an everyday normal shit relationship? What's the mystery? Did Him lose his mind one night & rip Blue's face off in a rage? What is the storyline?
And let's be real here...Nail is doing a fairly decent job at telling Te to piss off but not good enough. Block that bitch, call the cops, tell a friend, & make a scene if necessary. Go the distance because something is wrong with Te.
Also, I'm more invested in ChaoPie. Chao will break down Pie's walls LOL!
literally lmaooo it wouldve been more help if they actually went further and got them help rather than waste fuel…
A second failed escape LOL. None of them have had the brilliant idea of just leaving the house & walking. Even if it took 2 days at least it would be better than just sitting there LOL.
Ah, the frozen kiss. I thought that they were veterans & I'm kinda disappointed. Why not put a shoulder in the way? Oh well.
After I wrote this I scrolled & saw how many people did complain about the kiss as I did, but how many vultures came out to outright attack their opinion was insane. Look folks, no one is saying that they needed to MaxTul the situation. However, even if you want me to believe that this is either one's 1st kiss, I had a first kiss too &, well, you move. Lips move, heads move, you breathe...you don't stand there as if rigor mortis has taken over. These dudes in the show are over the age of 5 & 5 times that in real life. A happy medium could've sufficed.
It's a cute show, albeit I'd prefer them in something more on the drama side like Not Me. The cutesy stuff is great but I think they should age...into more age appropriate storylines. Still living off your parents should be a distant storyline for both of them. I know folks were attacked for this opinion as well. Well, it IS an opinion & this IS an opinion forum for discussion so there's that.
Did they talk about it in a reaction video or a behind the scenes? I have yet to find a subbed reaction video…
Yeah this is the one...but I don't see any subs LOL. Like they are all talking but nothing on the screen except for the subs from the episode that they are watching. Those are in English & I can read them but that's it. Any suggestions? LOL
