Takano Akira's embrace

Hello everyone! 

I'm a part of the Sketchy BL Subbing Team.  Check us out here.

I love to spend hours researching obscure dramas and movies.

Current Subbing Projects: 

Helping to retime and edit subs for Kizudarake no Tenshi (1974).

I am a sucker for heart-warming content and dramas that don't celebrate toxic characters, but rather point out their toxicity and how wrong it is. For this reason, I don't mind when villains are toxic, since they are villains, but I absolutely cannot stand when toxic main leads who are supposed to be "good" win.

I am a huge fan of female-led action scenes and strong women (not just physically, but also mentally) and I hate when that tag is used for fake "strong" women who are in reality just toxic.

I try to be open to all kinds of genres and themes, but I am not a huge fan of endlessly romantic dramas with no plot or female characters existing just to be a romantic interest for the male characters. However, I do watch a lot of BL / GL series.

I love sci-fi, fantasy and thrillers! Sadly, sci-fi and fantasy usually tend to be very lack-luster or plagued with forced romance or any excessively romantic themes.

I also usually find slice-of-life dramas with no plot movement incredibly boring, but it also depends on the direction and the themes of the drama.

My favourites:

  • Revenge themes
  • Bromance
  • Characters with disabilities
  • Power struggles
  • Dramas with nature shots
  • Spies / agents
  • Martial arts and sword-fighting
  • Human empowerment
  • Found family tropes
  • Realistic action scenes
  • Good writing with very little plot holes even if the drama is low budget
  • Investigation

Least favourite dramas, short series and movies that I completed:

  1. Strong Woman Do Bong Soon  - toxic, homophobic, "strong" female characters who are abusive
  2. Dark Blue and Moonlight - toxic main lead, cheating
  3. IRIS  - ruined by romance and awful writing
  4. Guardian  - read my review
  5. Memories of the Alhambra - ruined by romance and plot holes
  6. Bite Me - painfully slow
  7. Cutie Pie - no words to describe this curse on humanity
  8. Cutie Pie 2 You - strangely better than season 1? If that's even possible
  9. Limited Edition -toxic and messed up
  10. Golden Blood - catastrophic writing
  11. Nitiman - disturbing in some parts, painfully slow, no development, trust issues
  12. DanDanSoy  - what did I just watch?
  13. Takara-kun to Amagi-kun - no plot, awful acting (apart from some), confusing, unlikeable lead
  14. No Activity: Honjitsu mo Ijou Nashi - lives entirely up to its name, avoid or perish
  15. Kisetsu no Nai Machi  - how many characters do I want to murder? How about all of them?
  16. Ore no Ie no Hanashi  - Yet another Kudo Kankuro's mess. Kind characters seen as weak and forgettable? Never again.
  17. From Me to You  - Not even Ouji's cuteness can save this trainwreck of writing
  18. Shigatsu no Tokyo wa...  - makes me feel uncomfortable
  19. Step by Step  - writing detoriating so quickly, I might as well be on a rollercoaster
  20. The Eclipse - for making me care less and less about every character with each episode
