I really loved skynani in hsf and currently watching them in wu and loving it so far. I personally don't think these two shows were queerbaiting because one was about friendship and the other is about supernatural forces coming together and fated soulmates thingy. I can see it as "not romance" it's fine for me, although I do ship their characters everytime lol. I respect their boundaries and love their work. It's not necessary to become a fixed romance pair to work together imo. Y'all can be friends and act together multiple times as friends as well.
But I've been thinking about Arrest and Action lately and it's driving me crazy because how are they going to play the bromance and friendship card in such a bl coded premise? Two capable officers who hate each other’s guts are forced to do bl together while on a secret mission-- How does that sound like bromance? They'll hate each other and then act in gay romances and fight crime together, ofcourse they'll stop despising one another and grow closer only to end up as what? Best friends? What would be the purpose of all the emotional escalation then? Wouldn't it be very anti-climactic? It's so hard to pull this off in a bromance genre idk why they picked this script out of everything. I didn't give it much thought when the pilot came out but now that I think about it, this is not a trope where bromance can feel satisfying. Them ending up as best friends after doing a bl and getting shipped? I guess they took inspiration from their real lives with all the shipping that lead to them working together but are they doing bls irl? No. Then why make the characters do a bl at all? I can't understand. But I would be lying if I say I'm not looking forward to watching this hehe, it's skynani after all I'm weak for them TT
I like Sky and Nani and I like Wu, but I wish they would back off the LGBTQ marketing. If it's not going to be…
I think they'll be helping different people every episode, so there can be appearance of lgbtq+ people that way. If you have watched peaceful property you'd know. The main cast wasn't lgbt but in one episode forcebook were a gay couple so the tag here also could be because of that. I'm pretty sure iQiyi won't add the tag for SkyNani's characters. That would be stupid. Let's wait and watch.
This series looks pretty interesting, especially the cinematography. You don’t really see this kind of visual…
I'm guessing the episode was fast because the show only has 8 eps. Maybe they have a lot to uncover, not sure so let's see. Someone mentioned it might have 9 eps.
If you feel like it was more than bromance in wu where it's almost nill then what will you say after watching high school frenemy? Haha. You should watch it sometime it's really good! Their dynamic was super intense in that. Wu is more plot driven, higher budget and has a surreal premise.
Finally I see folks using queerbait correctly cause saying BL actors queerbait does not make sense but this does.
Every actor at gmmtv has mascots. Ships have common mascots that they call their "kid" and solo actors have their own. Like Win Metawin has Meta, Nanon has his own and so on. Similary, Sky has his own mascot called Smyle and Nani has his own called Neona. Mascots are made to promote their actor's work. They don't even have a common mascot like other ships. Now coming to their work, they have clearly decided to keep working together because that's how their brand has been built now and there's a lot of involvement of gmmtv as well. They want to work together but have boundaries on what they can and can't do. It's the fans that ship them and see all their shows as more than bromance so gmmtv is capitalizing on that. It's natural that the actors would wanna do what is within the confinement of their comfort zone, it's helping their careers and they're very good friends irl as well. It's upto the fans tbh. If they don't want to keep watching their friendship shows their brand will sink on it's own but as long as the fans are engaging they'll find out ways to work together without fixing themselves into a bl ship. I see it as business and personal preference, not queerbaiting tbh.

But how is Wu queerbaiting though? They have mentioned from the beginning that it's a story about friendship, fate and mistery with supernatural elements where have they hinted at romance and not deliver?
Ok, serious comment coming in: I had zero expectations regarding this series. Both trailers were meh. I don't…
Nani plays all his roles with 100% authenticity. Like, one wouldn't be able to guess his real personality with the roles he plays. He's a sweet, innocent, clueless soul irl but his characters are always the exact opposite and he nails them so effortlessly. Such a talent!
Sky's just as good, most of his role in hsf was about yearning and apologizing and he delivered lol he was yearner of the year for me haha but I'd agree Niran is much more interesting with all his powers and aura.
SkyNani are really slaying as NiranPete. Pete is such a baddie damnnnn I love him already! Loved the episode through and through, so gripping, zero filler no time wastage just straight to the point. Amazing!
Gmmtv usually drops trailers on Mondays. for recent shows like EWB and Wu, the trailers were dropped 2-3 weeks…
This show is all we have till 2027 😭 they did not get a new project for next year it still hurts. It's like fate has decided taynew will only do 1 bl in every 3 years

Yayyy omg I don't wanna watch the trailer because I don't wanna spoil the show but at the same time I can't wait to watch it hahaha I'm sooo excited to watch totokanit 😍
So if may 29th is the release date, when can we expect the trailer to drop?
ADaaP is their 1st original bl in years btw. It's not a remake like cherry magic or a sequel like DBK. It's gonna have fresh characters and a new premise. Really excited!!
