An interesting episode as always, very much liked it. So Porsche and Kinn might be cousins? Hmmm I have my doubts, why? Because BL series' never (almost never) have the balls to tackle a taboo topic like inter-familial relations and run with it to the end. I suspect that they will turn out to be not related, as is usual. Only step-bros make it to the end for some reason haha - it's not like two consenting adult males can have kids with each other anyways so no inbreeding lol! They don't HAVE to be related, I just think if you are gonna make people wonder with narrative setup and revelation, why do it in the first place unless you're going all the way? Then again, they might go with it and I'd be surprised. Either way though, I love this series and how it pushes boundaries... well at least with BL live-action since I've read some manga and manhwa that would make a prison inmate blush. Needed more Kim/Chay though, I like the bits we got but I need more lol! VegasPete is one crazy ride. I HATED Vegas for what he did to Pete before, but even then I was hoping for a redemption arch and I hope I'm seeing it now cuz Vegas seems to be changing for the better. Great performances from all, this is the first BL in a LONG TIME that I totally dig all the couples! Interesting, provocative, intriguing, exciting, emotional, FUN!
*I also agree it was pretty selfish for Porsche to put his revenge above the safety of his friend Pete. I knew Vegas wouldn't hurt him in that moment but Porsche doesn't have the same info we watchers/readers do lmao! Porsche can be selfish at times and I hope that's something he can overcome. Especially when it involves the well-being of his friends/family.
Retroactively making the girlfriend a cheater isn't going to make cheating Vee look any better. Sorry writer, you aren't gonna pull the wool over my eyes! Perfectly okay for Vee to fk around but damned if Mark's eyes linger ANYWHERE ELSE, hypocrite Vee! Also, I hate arm draggers, don't drag people. "Hey Vee, your girl is cheating on you!" Vee, "Oh really? BEEN THERE DONE THAT MYSELF!" Ugh I don't like Vee, this is why you don't take advantage of drunk people who are calling you by a different name cuz they think you are someone else VEE!!! Okay, lol, I'm done.
I'm only watching this for Boat, I don't like either of the main characters. One is perfectly happy to cheat and doesn't seem concerned messing things up for Tee, the other treats Tee like crap most of the time. Every time he tries to do something nice he throws it back in his face. Ugh, despicable people. *Dao is better in the second episode but I still think he's got a cheating heart. **NM, I fucking hate them both still, poor Tee.
Again, chooses a jerk over the better man. I really hate how BL is written sometimes. *On second thought, Koyama deserves far better. Wish the story was about him instead. The fact that I get SLS 7 times out of 10 with BL means there's obviously a disconnect between me and this genre. I don't even like Hira so its whatever lol, I guess broken people deserve each other.
Porchay is too precious, I'm so mad at Kim right now! Oooooooo!!! I'm still enjoying the main couple even tho they aren't as angsty and more fluff now but they earned it :P I really don't like Vegas, sadists just urk me so I'm hoping he gets better - man needs therapy. Pete, you poor guy. I have trouble watching the violent stuff he goes through. Vegas is sexy but man I have trouble liking him but I still enjoy him as a character so I'm not knocking this series at all. In fact it's one of my favorites this year so far. I love the edge, not total fluff (even though I like that too). I do like character redemption so hopefully they are able to pull that off with Vegas lol, he may have murdered the ex boyfriend - but that guy killed Big just when I was starting to like the guy! So I forgive Vegas, killed a killer lol. Its rare to see a BL where both lead characters kill people lol! Need more action BL! Everyone (as an actor) is so good, but the actor playing Porchay really stands out to me in his scenes, his emotions come off so real and for such a young actor I'm impressed. But again all the actors do very well and so far I'm loving the series!
I don't like any of the dynamics in this one so far, things are a bit too unbalanced imo. Meow is pretty much mentally and emotionally a kid, teacher-student relations are unethical if they are at the same uni, at least age gap isn't an issue but still its a conflict of interest. Same with employer/employee relations at the same company. No big loss because it was kinda boring me anyways lol, just my personal opinion not a judgement call.
