After Moving Seats, the Boy Behind Me Has a Crush on Me Episode 1
0 people found this review helpful
estar cute & all but so freakin short & recognized the mains from other BL's. not that this means much just an observation. haven't read the mange this is adapted from so idk if there, there is more of a build up - but it felt weird this 0 to 100 switch. just hope Asamiya gives Mayama time to adjust & the progression of their romance is rush by Asamiya gaslighting & pushing Mayama into anything that he isn't ready for.. as is we see that he an enabler & very considerate of others - which can make him an easy target to those that want to take advantage of this trait, so this plus can become a minus in a blink & i don't a toxic romance. so here hoping this remains cute & healthy from start to finish

Enjoying watching this handsome actor and showing the backstory to him and Great Demon. Goddess character is still lame. Hou Minghao’s charm keeps episodes enjoyable. Jiu is funny.

Mountain God stepped up. Baize Goddess sat and watched everyone fight and she just cried. I hope it gets better. So far it’s ok. I am watching for Hou Minghao only.

IrenaK I hope they succeed in curing Huayong, but I am also afraid we might be moving towards a sad ending (at least for him), especially when I consider the intro where Huayong's silhouette with Xihe's head in his lap disperses and then she's alone near the throne. But for this, of course, I will have to wait until the end. 🥺And finally, Xihe agreed to marry Huayong. The reason she says out loud is because he has only one year left to live and that's his wish before he dies, but in truth, she already has some feelings for him. I expect great and beautiful moments from their union. 🤗🥰But about Cui and Lin... I love them, but I get why Lin would be mad at him. I would be too if there were someone who constantly pestered me, intervened in any of my plans, and just didn't leave me alone for a bit. Cui, please be more thoughtful when it comes to Lin if you want her to accept you in any way! 😮💨🙏

This epis Was disappointing. The Goddess stays sitting on floor with tears in her eyes and doesn’t react otherwise. Like help in someway you are the Goddess. She is dumb. She still has to depend on Great Demon for everything. And Sister Pei still not being caught as the mole is annoying.

Sweet0Girl Episode was going well until the end. Also, didn't like that No Ah still wants her ex to be the bad guy. Does it suck when your ex moves on faster than you? Yes but the games I cannot tolerate.

This episode is actually a mixed bag because of the SFLs (the rivals) but the ML storyline is finally picking up steam and the FLs dad is definitely the highlight I was rofl

Plot devices are used and discarded, handily being forgotten by the next episode. Behavior of both leads beggars belief. Show is being brute-force carried by the acting and likeability of the leads, but it is teetering on the brink of being dropped.

I liked this ep. I'm glad she told Ga Eul not to fit into the life she wants b/c he IMO would only come to resent her anyway. It was a good place for them both to move forward seperately. I loved to that she did the presentation. I was really going to be pissed if they had made her miss that opportunity after all that buildup. This is what I'm so digging about this series is that they have the tropes but they are not leaning into them.

This Love Doesn't Have Long Beans Episode 5

devynn This show felt like it would never end. It was actually going to be a 4 star from me but I cant stand shows or movies that drag on. We get the point lets wrap it up. Also, I don't appreciate how we saw these two men hook up like 17 times but we couldn't even get a kiss between the second couple until literally the last 40 minutes of the entire show??? Their storyline was the preferential one and it got what felt like 30 minutes of total airtime. I just can't in good consciousness give this show more than 3 stars, and thats being generous. I also really hate these shows that give that they're trying to villianize women by making them the ex who is trying to swoop in and steal the main characters man. He had no qualms about turning gay so I don't understand why making his ex a woman was necessary? Its giving gay for you and I donttt like it. Anyway thats all.

jeoneungd I am struggling with enjoying this show, it has two great actors and a female lead who is great in action but to call this a romcom is a stretch of the imaginations. The character is demeaning to women, and it gives me a point of view of what kind of girls wave the phallic-like light sticks in k-pop concerts….bright on the outside but empty inside. I may continue later and skip episode to see if this show improves but it would really be a surprise if the series and all its trope comes out differently. Forgive me I don’t want to demean fangirls but this show seems to express that.

loved it as things start to pick up especially with villain character being introduced - you know there will be problems between the love triangle and I cannot wait to see it unfold

I loved everything about this drama except all the gore. I'm even rewatching it and I don't usually rewatch shows. Zhang Linghe is top-tier acting and visuals!

This episode should be renamed Khun Po, the perfect third wheeler. This support character needs some TLC; I hope someone gives in some attention later on in the series. Meanwhile, it is fun seeing him struggle with both his friend being on the verge of dating seriously.

It's such a tired, over-used plot device where C-Dramas spend all this screen time giving us the maudlin, sad sob-story history behind some psychopathic unrequited love interest, as if to make us feel sorry for him (or her). I absolutely hate this trope because it is so disingenuous. In almost every case whatever trauma they have endured is nothing compared to that which millions of others have endured and yet THEY didn't turn into obsessed psychopaths. So it completely fails as an excuse for their behavior. And even in the (rare) c-drama cases where the character goes through redemption and turns into someone who isn't a villain and maybe even helpful, it's just not that interesting because we _know_ that this character is NOT going to end up with the lead and so it all feels like a giant waste of screen time. Love triangles in general are almost always nothing but a plot drag. All that said, Jeremy Xu is doing a masterful job of playing a creep. He's being so good at this role in this show that I think I need to go watch one of his dramas again where he played a sincerely good guy just to wash this icky feeling away. Time to rewatch Legend of the Phoenix.
