I CANT BELIEVE I WATCHED THE 3 MOVIES TO HAVE THIS ENDING

istg if i ever get a confirmation that haruto actually killed ruka I MEAN FOR WHAT LIKE PLEASE CMON THAT DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE RUKA WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT UNDERSTOOD WHAT HARUTO'S BEEN THROUGH i just finished and for real im beyond dissapointed w this ending if it really is what i think it is because haruto and ruka had the perfect potential to be an amazing couple i am extremelly sad i now i have at least 15 different traumas after watching the trilogy.
i also would love to know what happens to seiya and yasaki in the future, if the boy who i forgot the name rn stays alive (seiya's "bf")
plus those two guys who kill ppl made a nice couple i actually liked them
anywayz that's it im traumatized and prob will think about these movies for a very long time and idk why i did this to myself

Pink movie gone mad

Ok, so now I have watched all 3 (4 with the two endings of the first) movies.

I have to admit that the movies have a strange kind of attraction. I do not know wether it is the combination of Riku Mukai looking like the most innocent boy on earth who has fallen into a hell full of craziness or simply all the weirdness going on, like literally everyone is not who they seem to be and the plot twists and twists and twists...

Be aware that (SPOILER) in every movie there are dicks cut or bitten of or you will see a repetition of the former scenes. And there are scenes that will make you feel VERY unpleasant. Or you will laugh your head of because they feel so ridiculous (I guess this is not intended)...

For me, the triology makes more sense with the "noir"-version of the first movie, the blanc movie just does not fit with the rest.

All in all this is not a bad triology. The acting is good, the setting aswell. Do not be fooled that this is "BL", because it is not. For me, due to the good acting I even felt a little sorry for Seiya (the "villain" in the first movie). And Haruto escaping the "victim"-role in the end the way he does - well, this fits the movies pretty good. Therefor I would like to see Riku Mukai again in a non AV movie, he has quite the potential for "real" acting.

Did he die?

The ending of Part 3 Fallen Flowers left me a bit lost.

WARNING!!! SORTA SPOILER!

If you know the answer, please tell me. Did Haruto kill Ruka? Because I sure got that impression. Which kinda stinks, especially after the HELL Aoyama put Haruto through. Why he would still love that creeper is beyond me. That's really all I have to say, except this trilogy left me with nightmares. So don't watch if you aren't into twisted obscessions disguised as love and a heavy dose of SM. About the only good thing I can say is, the acting was pretty good. Hope the cast all get better parts to play, soon. The music wasn't bad, just emotionally misplaced. Except for the ending on the first part-which felt hollow-the rest of them the characters were gaslighting each other and the audience.

Nani?

I've watched all 4 movies (no shame) and since I didn't write a review for TSD 2... I'm here for the finale.
Ok, well if you're looking for something that will mind f*** the s*** outta you then LOOK NO FURTHER! I will openly say Part 1 was my fav. This wasn't really "bad" it just threw unnecessary amounts of unnecessary stuff everywhere. The plot holes were endless then would suddenly all be solved by these bouts of AH-HA! Moments. If you've made it this far in this series, it's still not for the faint heart.
I wanna say Ruka is bae but maybe just bae... adjacent lol
and YES... you have to watch them in order.
Enjoy...

Thought provoking

It's gonna mess with your head. You aren't going to want to, but you have to pay attention to catch the clues and emotional nuisances that drive the story. All the movies depict a dark and animalistic side to human nature. The characters are broken and greedy and grasping for any ray of hope or happiness they can take for themselves. Even when forced deeper into darker dealings. They want happy things, but they aren't looking in happy places. Moral of the story, everyone is an A-hole.

The erotic trilogy is closed and I can recommend it, but only to stronger characters who don't mind depression and cruelty. Well, even two "without birds" are enough in the end...? However, I have to highlight two attributes: the fact that it is an erotic trilogy - it had a plot, and also that all three parts are balanced and slightly above average for me. Out of rating: Ruka - he had a nice body, but that blond hair, the way he had it twisted here and there, it was scary.

Erotická trilogie je uzavřena a mohu doporučit, ale jen silnějším povahám, co jim nevadí deprese a krutost. No a i dva "bez vtákov" si nakonec vystačí ... ? Nicméně musím vyzdvihnout dva atributy: na to, že je to erotická trilogie - měla děj a dále, že všechny tři díly jsou vyrovnané a u mě mírně nadprůměrné. Mimo hodnocení: Ruka - měl hezké tělo, ale ty blond vlasy, jak mu natupírovali sem tam, to byl děs.

this made me want to kill myself

as much as the first movie in the series already wasn't a masterpiece, this shit it just ridiculous. first of all, at least 20 minutes of both second and third part is just repeating scenes from the first part (the aoyama and child haruto kiss scene is repeated at least a thousand times). also the same piano piece plays the entire time thru the whole series, which after a while made me lose my mind. the plot is horribly stupid, too many poor plot twists that didnt make much sense, but i personally enjoy watching absolute dogshit. the problem is, WHY IS IT SO BORING? without the unnecessary repetitions, the second and third part could make a decent one if merged together. but as separate movies, theyre just pretty fucking boring, especially this one. also, was ruka being fucking dubbed the entire time? i couldnt focus on anything else than his voice being unnaturally louder, clearer and emotionless than the others. honestly the only good thing about this part would be that one seiya and the crusty old man sex scene, just because i find seiyas actor insanely attractive. nothing more to it, the first part was definitely enough
