I don't like soul-themes, come on Taiwan! Enough with soul-themes and age gapes, get back to things like We Best Love and Plus & Minus!

I absolutely love Tontae and Victor's romance, I absolutely HATE the ending! Seeing En and De was worth it but the writers just had to ruin the end. I HATE when MC/ML dies, this is only acceptable if its a ghost romance imo. Sure some people love sad endings, more power to them. I DON'T! Give me angst and sorrow sure, but dammit satisfy me at the end with some goddamned hope! I've been waiting since MODC to finally get the Xia Twins in a BL where one of them is actually in an LGBT+ role and they do this, ugh! Actors were great especially with the English and it not being their first language, Nan was a likable ML in the triangle, even though I don't care for those either.

Well I mean you can like a concept or something overall but hate aspects about it, that's what I was saying like, its not all or nothing. When you say "snowflakes" it just sounds like you were coming from that position to me, that you distain anyone who complains about aspects they don't like and maybe that's a false assumption but that's why angry posting can cause confusion.

I should make a comedy about the Holocaust then (major s/), I mean I get your point but you don't seem to see the other side's view either. I don't like censorship and I wouldn't advocate for like something being changed because I don't like it, or try to get it cancelled. BUT stating why you don't like something, or wishing it could be different, or hell just outright complaining is a fundamental right of expression all ought to have.

Okay from now on, if its not BL, I'm not watching it.

Ethics are about harm reduction and prevention, if no empirical harm is being done its not unethical. Morality is relative to culture and not reflective of universal human ethic but cultural bias and tradition as well as established norms but are arbitrary and vary. I'm not getting defensive, you are the one escalating with ad hominems, accusations and assumptions. And what I'd like personally is for bigots to be in boxes where only they can hear their own bitching but this isn't about my personal desires its about false equivalencies. I'm not advocating for step-bro relationships, I'm just against false equivalencies that arise from obvious personal prejudices. Maybe you don't want anything taboo associated with BL or LBGT+ in general because that might reinforce negative stereotypes and if that's the case, then I can see your point. But you came at it with a lot of anger and hostility, at least, from my impression.

I get that, but the word pseudo means not genuine, spurious or a sham. In other words fake, so I think the equivalency is a bit unbalanced imo, especially if its consensual but yeah perhaps I misunderstood your statement initially. I don't see it as minimalization when I simply don't see the issue with consensual peer relationships without coercion, force or threat and thus think equaling them to more serious offenses IS a minimalization, but of those other more serious offenses.

I mean the SA disturbed me the worst and I hate the ML now because of it and even I'm not gonna downrate it for that, but over snakes? lmao yeah I don't agree with downrating for that either.

Totally agree, like that dude isn't likely to show up again nor see the ML do right by him to earn redemption, he's tainted imo. So I will probably just end up hating him for the entire show no matter UNLESS he redeems himself of the eyes of those he harmed, which isn't likely.

I never read the books, I only watch the shows. And I don't look up the writers, I don't care. Not surprised myself, just disturbed they had an ML do this, makes me hate him. Surprising I know, but I hate people who do evil sht.

Right? One episode in and I hate him already. Development be damned, he has to do right by the person he victimized, not just "be better" imo lmao!

No it isn't, consent is key. Manipulation, coercion and rape are always worse to any civilized person.

I'm a Xia twins fanboy, I'm definitely for Victor.

En is so pretty!!! So happy he's not bullying baby Gu in this one :P and the manager guy from the other series I'm watching lol, I like it so far :)

You can't have OMEGAverse without OMEGAS.

Dubs were kind of weird but if its just that one guy, I can deal. Interesting so far, I get bored of the romcoms that comprises most of the BL genre.

Absolutely loved this, good acting, realistic and grounded. It was a bit messy but that's how it is IRL. Sad its over and I hope to see these guys in BL again in the future. I liked the end game couples, I was rooting for BaaBua! Very ITSAY feel to it and I love that, ITSAY is one of my all-time favorite BLs ever.

Coming back after all these years to a classic that got me started in BL, seems time (or rather more modern fans) haven't been kind to this series.

My BF feels the same as you, he said a similar thing lol! I get it :)

I don't speak either languages so it didn't really bother me lol. I mean if the plot and characters aren't interesting I get it not being liked for that. But the language thing being a factor is odd to me.
