what would you recommend from them? I'v not watched anything before and this is great! light or dark-I'm ok with…
By no means at all try to watch Prince of Legend.... OMG the cringe!!! Even a comment on the POL section warned about not watching the show just because of Machida (I wish I had read that before), he actually has a very small role. Machida was still inexperienced and kinda bland in Bijo to Danshi, but you get to see a new whole set of his microexpressions.
Random thought: If CM is not a BL, in other word hetero relationship (with Adachi being the female), do you think…
Wow! I actually had once a similar thought: What about a CM only about the mind-reading trope? Although to be honest, I wouldn't take away the other things that made CM so particularly likeable: I actually liked the setting of an office romance (which wasn't really explored though), and also the part about a person not accepting the fact that someone "elite" liked them vs the perfectionist struggling with their facade (I remember watching "Kimi wa petto" hoping it will go more into the conflicted perfectionist but it took a different path). I think the mind-reading trait was precisely what made possible to display the internal conflict of the leads in such a way that many of us might felt identified with, and that conflict had nothing to do with the same sex atraction. The BL trait was just the cherry on the cake (pun absolutely intended). I wasn't aiming for a BL drama, but ended up liking it so much because of all the sweetness the romance was handled with (aaaand the uber handsome, talented leads, ofc). But I think, all that sweetness and kindness would have transfered perfectly to any other relationship even if it was a hetero one. All in all, I love CM the way it is. Although I complain about the little character development Udon had. Nya~
I love it whenever they share the NG situations. Like this one: https://www.instagram.com/p/CKAdqAsndJ1/?igshid=pngck8xymqdr Akaso apparently kept saying "I didn't hate kissing with you" instead of "I didn't hate your kiss" and that somehow confused Machida, because that kiss had been one-sided basically (Sorry, I actually can't understand fully their comments so I'm assuming a bit there). Also, does anyone know where I can find the whole interview? ... and how many insta lives are there so far? *Im marking this as a spoiler bc of the kiss conversation*
I think he said that he joined the group because he wanted to become an actor and not an idol. So no wonder he…
THIS INTERVIEW!!! This is practically hinting (or rather, foreshadowing!?) so much about his role in CM, but also it is the way he thinks. He is so genuine.
Akaso says that it's been a long time since he met Macchinda-kun and he gets even more nervous everytime. Why do you do this to me!? My Kurodachi feels... my heart... the pain....
Sorry guys it's me again! Anyone here who wants to listen to their sub-audio? It isn't included in the blu-ray,…
My Japanese knowledge is about 0.0005% so I´m guessing mostly. First they introduce themselves, say somthing about the Op and wondered if the first spin off would be Rokkakku. It is Valentine. Akaso says what a popular guy (Scene shows Kuro receiving chocolate from the female workers). Commenting the bit of Adachi catching Kuro's choco mid air, they say how good it resulted. Akaso and Machida say the had to rehearse it and it was difficult (prolly cz the choco was very light). I guess even Akaso made a little jump. 5:04 They laugh at Kuro's desk full of choco and how the others' are empty. 5:22 Kuro isn't really skillfull hiding the choco, yet Adachi didn't see. Rokkaku is very cute (whenever a scene with Rk comes, they'd say he is cute) 7:43 choco mountain on Kuro's desk keeps growing 9:07 Akaso mentions how tasty that choco was, even hand made. Machida agrees, the whole choco was tasty (even the chilli one!??). Kuro's reaction to the chilli choco was like an old lady's (according to Yuutarou) 10:24 Rokkaku's spin off makes them happy (they even clap ^^) Machida says Rk is so fresh and carefree/positive. 12:09 Rk's respect for Adachi is somehow troublesome, says Machida (cz RK asks for Adachi's advice) 12:24 Yuutarou says many times how scary is Kuro appearing out of nowhere. 13:34 They all wonder if detective Rk has found about Kurodachi. It seems the hamburgers in the next scene in the cafeteria were very tasty. And of course, Kuro appears out of nowhere behind Adachi. Again talking about "Detective Rokkaku" and the series "There you are" (Rokkaku's favourite line). 17: 59 Everyone finds it cute about Rk's conclusion as to why Kurodachi is always together. Machida says during the ending credits that he wants to watch more of Detective Rokkaku, even related to Tsuge and MInato. 19:56 Machida and Akaso noticed the ending last bit has changed (I personally liked it: No more Kuro and Adachi walking in suits as if in just Kuro's fantasies).
20:15 They introduce themselves, this time using their characters' first names!! As for Minato, he says his last name. I guess, they comment how MInato was the only one using a first name. As for the comments on Tsuge Minato spin off, they mostly talk about how supportive or nice or hardworking or even cute Minato is, and what a liar of Tsuge when he says he is a dancer (although Akaso thinks he looks capable). 35:42 Asaka likes the inspiration from Minato for Tsuge's book, Everybody agrees and Machida says something (probably really deep) about how even there was no more mindreading, they care about their wishes (I'm dying for understanding better what Machida says here!!) Of course everybody is delighted by the kiss and surprised about the kabedon.
During the ending credits, I wonder why Machida's name comes last after the supporting cast and even after the extras' and not right after or before Akaso's . Also, I like how they changed the last bit with the happy ending and it didn't look like another of Kurosawa's hopeless fantasies.
I think it is gonna be on Thursday midnight, right before the finale. But I'm not sure if it means 3 SP and ep 12 right after that. It is confusing because they say the finale is on Thursday at 25:30, which is actually 1:30 am on Friday.
