The one and only odious and detestable character in this show. An embittered, envious and nasty shit-stirrer who is jealous of Misaki's popularity in the school.
Not a series, a movie. My Rosy Life, His Rosy Passion (2014). A pink movie with the emphasis on sex. Raunchy and amusing enough on the surface, but way inferior to this series. This series is a meticulous psychological exploration of such a throuple situation. That movie did not even try to analyze it.
The number of vile, mean-spirited, judgemental, one-dimensional and puritannical comments… eek. But I cannot say I am surprised at rudimentary MDL. This series is indeed way too adult and too complex for this kindergarten.
That is already crackling good. Wonderfully messy and complex, solid performances in particular by the 3 leads, yet the supporting cast is strong as well. I guess we are heading towards a very convincingly executed representation of a polyamorous relationship.
Apart from Bamee’s stepmother being an awful person, I guess there must be something for her being so terrified of letting someone enter that house. Does she know something about time travel?
Viki has always been a week behind GagaOOLala with the episodes. I wonder if the streaming rights might include…
The production company might want to avoid GagaOOLala subscribers drop spoilers to those watching it on Viki platform.
There are things like that with the final episodes. I remember there were two Pinoy BL series - In Between and My Extraordinary - where all the episodes were airing on GagaOOLala before they did on YouTube - except for the last one which came out simultaneously.
What the hell? Now it’s not coming out on Gagaoolala until 3/31? Whhhyyyy??
Viki has always been a week behind GagaOOLala with the episodes. I wonder if the streaming rights might include the condition to air the finale at the same time on both platforms, hence the delay.

This series is an exciting psychological drama with BL added, reinforced with complex and layered characters and interesting development of both plot and character.
It has its flaws, but from what I have seen so far those who criticize it seem to wanna buy something it has no intention to sell.
Could you expound and tell us why, exactly, it "sucked"??? I am not questioning your right to dislike the show.…
I would not call The Man Who Defied the World of BL fluffy either.
That is a highly affectionate, adroit, sprightly and poignantly witty send up of the BL genre, which manages to be a true BL as well, while constantly spoofing the genre. Sensational.

Miki Koichiro is a legend. Whatever the dude touches becomes pure gold, like I said earlier. He managed to make The Pornographer/Mood Indigo stuff consistently exciting and absorbing over 2 series, one feature movie and 2 shorts. The live action version of Given and the 2 seasons of The Man Who Defied the World of BL were also exemplary. He always works with very good actors also. He is one of my favourite BL directors.

If you think of it in retrospect, even the way Ritsu scared/blackmailed Masumi away from him once Masumi started stalking him was kind of for Masumi's sake somehow. He thought Masumi would find someone else better than him.

As for Ritsu, I am one of those commenters who kept saying from day one that Ritsu has always been a lot more complex personality than the superficial observations about him would suggest.
He has never been evil, just an unscroupulous player, but he never intended to hurt anybody. And I think he really loved Masumi even back then, and he was honest when he told him he was special to him. Like I said down there, apart from sleeping around, Ritsu was a very caring emotional support for Masumi (see the new year's eve scene, and I am sure there were many others.

You are a little behind in SJW slangs. Yeah, toxic is still pretty much in fashion but please sprinkle your comments with a bit more "red flag" if you eally wanna sound like a woke keeping up with the times. Lol.
Btw I guess your interviewee vopuches for A) as well.
For me, when it comes to series that are on Viki, I look at their ratings. They are are usually spot on for me…
I don't give a fuck about ratings, this comment was made just exactly to show how insignificant they are most of the time. I always go, watch and decide myself. When I saw this was made by Miki Koichiro, I knew I was gonna love it. Whatever the dude touches becomes pure gold.
Feel like a lot of the conflict could've been avoided if in the very beginning Ritsu was upfront with Masumi.…
Ritsu was upfront with Masumi. He did not have a convo with him like that, because he presumed Masumi knew all about him, as he clearly did. Masumi started this relationship with Ritsu knowing who he was, because he thought he could change him. He said that repeatedly.
If Ritsu were so persistent to double-check with Masumi, saying things like "You know I am like this, and I am not gonna change for you" - btw it is a pretty unrealistic expectation from a player - Masumi might have refrained himself from starting the affair with Ritsu. But that would have meant this six month, which later turned out to be the best and happiest period of both of their lives, never happened. Apart from sleeping around, Ritsu was a very caring emotional support for Masumi (see the new year's eve scene, and I am sure there were many others)
Like someone already pointed out, there were numerous hints Yuma was a miracle boy. That is why he did not die…
When there are continuous suggestions of the supernatural then fat chance they are there for a reason. He survived a deadly pill while Ritsu insisted he had stopped breathing previously and it started to rain and thunder just right there and then when he was so angry. Of course it was made to be dubious and questionable to keep us off balance.
