Why is there such a mania for portraying young people behaving like children?...Yes, he is young, but not that young to throw those tantrums... it's a little cringey.

This is sooo bad...

I'm not hiding, I just watched the pilot and remembered how awful actor Nat is. I am not an actor because I am not good at it, maybe some "actors" should think the same way or at least prepare for their work properly. I will continue to speak my mind whenever the hell I want. If people like you can accept criticism, then sorry, but not sorry.

Now they should take some acting lessons

I don't want to sound too radical but all those toxic, delusional, entitled fans who think they can control someone's life and still think they're supportive should be shot in the head...

Not everyone has the same taste and not everyone is looking for the same things in a story...fortunately we can all have our own opinions.

I don't know, with Our Youth I still prefer the manga, even if I liked both. Sometimes less is more, that´s true, but most of times that it´s so it´s because if you've already read the novel or manga when you watch the drama, you already have something in your head that gives you context, so you can skip parts or merge characters without feeling that something is missing, as people who haven´t read the novel might feel. Of course, as you said, it depends on the novel, and I would add on the reader/watcher´s taste😝

I don't think so, and it was a Spanish translation, not an English one. Ah, this and yours are not spoilers, so you can speak openly😝😂

Well, for the part I read, not so perfectly. That doesn't mean I didn't like the show, it just means I'd like to read the novel.

Yes, I also tried to find the novel in my language, but I only found it in Japanese. My friend's translated chapter made me realise how editing can make a very emotional scene seem colder or without enough context.

After reading a translation of one of the chapters of the novel provided by a friend, I think I should definitely read the novel. I feel that there were a lot of omissions and cuts in the show to really enjoy the whole meaning and beauty of it.

Just because a serial killer uses tricks to lure his victims, such as asking for help, does not mean that everyone who asks for help is a serial killer. The same goes for grooming. I've already said several times that I don't see the flirting anywhere (and by the way, they're in their last year of high school, so they're 18, so they're not minors)...and this is getting boring.

This is a breath of fresh air for the usually unoriginal Thai bl dramas.

Seriously?!!

yes but:
-should the same person do all the shifts?
-I understand what competitivity in business is but, to the point of kidnapping and murder? a bit extreme, don´t you think?

The teacher from Smells Like Green Ghost gave me the creeps before anything happened... the way he looked at Mishima, the way he drooled every time he saw him. But this teacher doesn't give me the same vibe. And maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see what you see.🤷🏽‍♀️

You are right if he is actually grooming his disciple, but if he is not, then you are all exaggerating. You cannot say that all behavior is predatory just because some behavior is. Of course grooming is wrong, but it is also wrong to accuse someone of something that is not true.
I only talked about college in terms of drinking beer, but I also had coffee with some teachers (men and women) while being underage, it was completely fine and not sexually intended.

Who cooks in a functional non toxic relationship has nothing to do with what I'm saying here. Fujisawa controls every aspect of Sei's life, he doesn't want him to see other friends, he doesn't want him to work, he doesn't want him to leave the house....In my opinion, he can stick all the meals he cooks up his own *ss.
Fujisawa wants Sei to depend on him only and completely. I don't know why, and I don't really care - I wouldn't want anybody to "take care" of me like that.

Well, I guess is not the same person the only one on duty 24/7...that wouldn´t be a job but slavery😅

Not seeing bad intentions where there are none does not mean that I am excusing predatory behavior. Maybe somebody here is seeing things that only exist in their mind. Not every little thing has an ulterior motive.
