OffGun remains ELITE
OffGun strikes again as a powerhouse duo in another amazing BL! I loved everything about this series. The story was something totally new and it had me filled with anticipation every episode. I'm used to Off's tough exterior, but to see Gun be anything more than a cute fluff had me in awe. The side couple got some good scenes, but I definitely want more of them and the rest of the cast. Visuals for miles and you can relate to at least one character which makes this not only an amazing drama but a relatable series. There's confident females, broken souls, crooked corporations and more all tied together into this epic drama that I'd totally recommend to any and all.The last ep seemed a bit rushed but ended well in sense of logic

Too Cute
I was hesitant to watch this since while I was waiting for it to finish before I watched, I heard nothing about it but this turned out better than I expected. YES IT'S SHORT but don't dismiss! I'd recommend to a newbie BL in a heartbeat cause even though the eps are short they were consistent with the important details and didn't bring in unnecessary characters or drama. You can easily focus on the main couple with a little 'side couple' stress lol. Visuals all around and I think the entire cast had good chemistry. If you're looking for lust you're in the wrong place but if you're looking for a quick n cute BL fix look no further. The kiss had me bugging!!!Enjoy...

Something Missing
Like most people, I'm here cause Thai BL actors Tommy and Jimmy lol I also couldn't pass up the rare international coupling. Anyway, so the story was all the way there! Definitely not cliché or tacky. It actually had a story I hadn't seen before and even though it had an inevitable ending, I can't help but feel something's missing... Not sure what though. Longer eps probably would've helped a bit. lol Overall it was really sweet and heartfelt. Lessons can be learned from this and that's the best part of drama's like this.I'd recommend to anyone who wants some light BL.

Director Mean
Are you looking to cry, then be catapulted into the abyss? LOOK NO FURTHER!So for starters I'm here cause I saw Mean was the director of this series and since he was my first BL actor crush, I had to represent.
Overall I really enjoyed this. It had a story I'd never seen and supplied all the feels! I just wanted to come through the screen and hug or slap everyone lol I think there was some natural chemistry between all cast members (obvious bonus). My ONLY complaints are that the eps themselves where short. You think they're going to be long but actually it's behind the scenes stuff. Also the ending had me scratching my head...is there a S2 on the way? Do we leave it to our imagination? WTF?! I wouldn't recommend to a newbie BL fan but either way, the story itself is enjoyable none the less.

Wholesome
So I'm mainly here to size this series up, since I loved the anime so much. I gotta say... I prefer the anime. Don't get it twisted though, it was nice to see it brought to life. It followed the anime pretty accurately but something's missing (not sure what). Anyway, overall it was great and it should be on everyone's PTWL. I think pretty much anyone can enjoy this series as it's got some realistic tragedy, great music, good acting, good chemistry between cast and (can't forget) VISUALS! lol The ending isn't how I wanted, but I'm satisfied.Enjoy...

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.

Ending=Rating Up
In all honesty I really expected this to be pretty basic and cliché so I didn't have high hopes for it. I happily regret having that mindset cause it's definitely better than expected. It starts out a little plain but it grew on me. Visuals all around and the storyline of each couple gets fluffy, emotional and overall realistic. If you're looking for high sexual content TURN BACK! I was pleased af with the ending and even though my re-watch value is average I'd still recommend to a BL newbie or someone who likes light and simple romance. More importantly, (to some) I have to give extra credit to the actors, they're all predominantly new to the BL/Acting industry but I gotta say...the kissings scenes were VERY convincing!Enjoy...
P.S. It took me a LOT longer than I care to admit to realize 2 of the characters are real life brothers LMAO

Left Vs Right
Uhhh, well if you're looking for something different, I assure you that you won't find it here. Wanna go left? You'll go right lol Imagine any and all BL plots/storylines with all the cheesiness and throw them into one and BAM you have "Brothers: The Series". Somehow it wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. It's right on the edge of "Idk if I want to finish this." and "But I've invested time into it already and I'm no quitter!" lmao It was Top Tier basic but the visuals were pretty worth it (I'm gonna let Prab aka Folk slide with those eyebrows). I; of course, enjoyed some parts but a good portion was pretty tacky. For it being predominately all new actors I gotta say it was decent enough. The ending was pretty rushed but at the end of the day someone found it good enough to have a S2 so I hope it's worth it.Enjoy,,,

perfect accident
I was sad I had to wait an extra week for the finale but honestly the anticipation was so worth it. Even though this series was short I loved every minute of it. I've seen the BL these boys were on previously and I truly believe they shined here, together! I came across this series by accident/curiosity and I'm so glad I did! It was so cute and there's visuals all around. If you're looking for something where they ravage each other you came to the wrong place... if you're looking for something wholesome, realistic with fluffy cute romance look no further! Definitely a good way to bring in the New Year of 2021 lol There's room for a S2 and I hope we get it, enjoy....Was this review helpful to you?
Movie > Series
DON'T SLEEP ON THIS MOVIE! This would've been a great series but I think a movie fits it perfectly. I loved every second of it. Something about boys with braces is so damn precious and Earth's smiles are to die for! The fluffy romance will leave you giggly and full of smiles. I didn't have constant anxiety and it wasn't cliché or tacky AT ALL. The plot/story wasn't too basic which is always nice. I'll definitely recommend to a newbie BL fan and my re-watch value is high for good reason.Enjoy....

Beautiful
This was a very well done movie. If you're looking for sexual content you made a wrong turn long ago. As someone who experienced parent divorce( like many other children) this hits close to home. Bitterly trying to make the other look bad, this movie will definitely make you appreciate not only your children but the good times in your relationships, finding true love and the things you're willing to do to be the bigger person. My re-watch value is average only cause it's not my style that I feel I could enjoy over and over again. I couldn't find this movie for awhile but once I did I wasn't disappointed and I don't think you will either as long as you understand this movie tackles real life issues and may even help you in being more mature in even daily life.Was this review helpful to you?
Bruh!
Ok so first and foremost I am still in tears after this finale! I was on the edge of my seat from episode one and was never disappointed other than having to wait a week to watch it, If you've waited to watch them all at once you won't regret it. I don't give 10 stars very often and honestly this show deserves more! The acting was flawless and the music will put you in your feels or get you pumped. I love these kind of psychological shows. If it has anything to do with a crazy killer I'm always down to watch it. Don't worry this isn't a very graphic show. Even the romance had me in awe and smiling/giggling, it was so damn sweet you might get a cavity lmao. The only spoiler I will remotely give is the ending was perfect in every way! I want unlimited seasons but honestly it ended flawlessly and I couldn't be more satisfied. This is one of the top shows airing this year and for VERY good reason. I really don't think you'll be disappointed in choosing to watch. Enjoy...Was this review helpful to you?
More Time
First I gotta say this is by far my favorite Korean BL! Yes, it's short but unfortunately that's just the way it is with Korea. There were visuals for miles and even though it was short you got the general idea of the story. There were no unnecessary characters/plot holes so obviously, with more time this would've been perfect. Overall I'm satisfied but I give the ending a -infinity/10 lmao That ending was some bs. It's worth the watch if you want something simple with a little bit of fluffy cheesiness. Definitely recommend to a BL newbie but if you're looking for lust you won't find it here.Enjoy...

Better Than Expected
Like most BL fans, I'm here for Gun lol While this show definitely exceeded my expectations, I'm giving it a just above average score. The story was all the way there and just when I thought something would go left it would go right. Moments I thought were about to be cliché would throw me for a loop. I thought there was pretty good chemistry between the entire cast (which is good for any series) and they even gave decent screen time to the side couple. I'm pretty good about liking the side couples more because I never get enough of them, but I'm glad that wasn't the case here, side couple was still my fav though. It did have it's REALLY tacky moments and the fight scenes had me hunched over in laughter. Would recommend to a newbie BL fan but not much else.Enjoy...

Over Hype?
I'm here for the hype and I gotta say, I'm disappointed. I was pretty bored most of the time, but I stuck it out hoping it would get better/be worth it. I'm giving it a 6.5/10 cause the cute scenes were few and far between but just what the Dr. ordered when they appeared. Something about KK rubbed me the wrong way... pretty sure it was his obnoxiously bright teeth LMAO Overall, the show was more like a soap opera. It was pretty tacky, campy and quirky making it seem parody like, as opposed to having any real storyline. Can't imagine who'd I'd recommend this too but I won't tell you not to watch it. A lot of people seem to have enjoyed it. The ending was definitely to my standards lolEnjoy...
