BLove

Is it even BL if the soul occupying the body is technically female?

faux-incest really works for me

that took a bad turn towards the end. Earth and Mix get cast in these insanely romantic, emotional, silent-waters-run-deep-plots.

When Asami smiles just once in the later episodes, I was like: it must have been so hard to have zero facial expression up until now. Why not more smiling??

look beyond the childish title. Watch for the original OffxGun. Gun on the offense

Gun and OFF are awesome as usual. I like this slightly emotional abuse to their dynamic. But here their story is just superficial. Nothing compared to theory of love

When I see people screaming 'toxicity' in the comments over and over - I'm like: 'where? where??'. The twisted relationship works for me, but I had some issues with the storytelling.

the NSFW scenes are barely  PG 12+ - even in the uncut version. But I liked Day's fixation with Itt's neck. I thought the two side couples acutally had much better chemistry.

The best thing about this drama LSS fighting people & the ridiculous pyjamas.

Cool premise but the betrayal twist was so off-putting I barely managed to finish, even though I could uderstand where he came from.

yay for rocking the sub-genre!

time-travelling theme.

I can't even remember watching this - lol

Oho - look at Ohm suddenly showing off all kinds of cheekbones and flirting skills! He really outgrew the gentle features of He's coming to me. 

Strong start. Watch for the iconic kiss in ep 5. Thereafter your either love it or hate it.

zero chemistry and weak plot. Turns out Ohm needs a strong acting partner. Within 2 eps Ohm-Nannon had a strong relationship established in Bad Buddy. Still waiting for Leng and Ohm to create that kind of tension. Either may be replaced with a slice of white toast...

is this even BL? I think they had to cast GunOff and pepper in 3' of extended eye contact per episode just to get this plot sold.

In BL you can find bad writing, bad acting, bad chemistry any day... but this is the first time I see bad romance. Everything about this is wrong.

4 eps of this was quite enough. But I liked the chemistry and muted colours of the post editing. Gives it a retro feel.

oh well. must watch for BounxPrem but apparently they were wasted on a bizarre and idiotic plot

Sweet romantic awakening, I suppose.  The leads give me nothing, though

somehow the age-gap is awkward... or they just don't feel comfortable acting together... idk

Gun as ML! But I think I preferred Gun as hapless, clueless senior getting seduced by a younger man. Very odd chemistry in this one and the back story is a bit ridiculous.

You know it's GMMTV when the mood-lighting is over the top colourful.
Top notch chemistry but it's endlessly boring towards the end. Barely finished.

 There are no cats. No one is a wer-cat either (I thought that would be it)

If you’re looking for a show with cute animals in it, you won’t find it here, and you’re honestly better off just watching dog or cat videos on Youtube.

dnf. sue me. Probably works for most people, though.

dnf. 

Remake of Japanese original. This role does not fit Singto to a t. He's just too teddy bear to pull off the irresistible gay conquerer. I wish I could give this a higher rating...

Sorry, were you expecting a wholesome relationship or a morale at the end?  What part of the title gave you that misguided idea?   The problem is : what sissy-crap is this?

I am constantly going back and forth between dropping and binging. This has strong lakorn feel - not much to look at in terms of cinematography or editing. Bouncing between brutal and cringy. I think Film's acting is what makes this difficult to watch for me. He borders on loony lawyer, although I am given to understand his smile is supposed to be sexy. He is more authentic later but he still shows those lewd smiles in the most inappropriate moments. I am all for ravishing the drunk, but I am surprised that i draw the line at seducing a man who is emotionally wrecked by the death of his baby niece. And the abused rich boy and his bodyguard should be my kink but somehow that's even worse of a plot line.

Jam is actually a very good actor and makes the whole thing worth watching.

it was awful. I loved it.

the writers sat in a room and Jon from accounting said "BDSM Mafia Boss". one person said "what about the storyline?" "don't worry about it" Jon from accounting replied. "the hornies don't care about that." and they really stuck to that because except the lil quarrel they had in the end, nothing really happened. Until Jon from accounting said "you know what. throw in a threesome, but don't build up or follow up on it at any point ok?" and the room said "Sure thing, Jon".

dnf. I am too old for this type of young rom com. Or it's too bad. idk

I am just not an anthology lover.
Ep1: story: meh. romance: soso
Ep 2: -
Ep3: for Boun x Prem - very nice dynamic. they are so adorable.

Nice flirting- but overladen with side stories.  

mediocre across the board.

bland.

boring

12 eps of 45' would have given them A LOT of room to tell a story. They choose not to. Actually, NOTHING much happens. Watch it with your brains switched off. It's pretty enough and the uncut version might actually be worth it for the steamy scenes as they carry a lot of the story. 

dnf. manga adaptation. Need I say more?

dnf. manga adaptation - the usual problem: what works in panels does not work irl

Reviews foreshadow a big disappointement. I should have believed them.
Reasons this didn't work for me: too many too count. Reason I still gave 4 stars: Toptap and Mike

30 min into the movie and nothing has happened yet. ... booooring

dnf. nil character depth, no recogniseable storyarch, and sooo old-fashioned for a 2021 BL.

dnf. started well enough but derailed quickly. No pull.

with a little bit of effort this might have been better off as a psychological thriller. so bad. so much crying and long stares and dragging

Yes well. It has Poom. 

Another Foodie BL that features exrtemely little food and extremely little plot and Dean 2.0 who meets all his romantic partners while grocery shopping.

It's cheap, and cringey. The story is ridiculous and the acting very stiff. Watch this if you want to be cheered up and smile at how bad this is.

Should have been been Saint x Zee. Unfortunately script like a fanfic of a 12-year old,  if you can't find a better cliffhanger than Zee looking at you like he will eat you right up, you really really really have nothing to say.

dnf. this is definitely not a bingeable show.
High production but so far It's sadly going to lengthen my already overly long list of mediocre BLs which seems to be a specialty in Thaïland. Not great, not fun, but watchable when you have some time to waste.

The shy virgin trope with the vanilla plot is just too much. The novel it is based on is supposedly basically porn. Not sure that would have been better.

dnf. Foody BL. Interesting dynamic. #AbsBeforeEp3

dnf. hell no.

dnf. the speed of this is positively glacial and the chemisty is equally frosty. But the foodporn and music are nice

dnf. oh lord. I can't even. Sooo overacted.

dnf.

Last of the Sammon -trilogy. Can't wait!

can't find subs 08/2024

Saw this recommenden in the comments for 'Dangerous Drug of Sex'. Read the tags berfore continuing...

Nice slow burn. Is the older man / younger man dynamic experiencing a renaisssnce in 2024?

mixed feelings. Krist/Singto are legendary. Not sure they can delivery the same glorious performance that we remember. If this turn out a falling short I might be too disappointed.
