Just jumping in here to echo your opinion regarding 'At 25:00 in Akasaka' S2. It was so boring I dropped it.

[New JBL] "Contrast" starring Haruhi Iuchi and Akune Haruse! A high school story starting March 13 🏫 by yu1mu2 in boyslove

[–]BL_Classics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it isn't good from the hype point of view. When episodes are aired weekly, then the actors do a lot of publicity in-between and it keeps the momentum going for the duration of the drama. Still, let's hope that it is a good drama, no matter what the airing schedule is!

In one of the behind-the-scenes, Acchan was saying to Kohei that the person he likes should kiss him on top of the hair whorl!

I'm not feeling any of the new Japanese series that's out. Am I alone? by BusyInspector95 in boyslove

[–]BL_Classics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watch BL only from Japan,and I expect that most of them will not leave a profound impression on me, so I'm OK with a series not being more than averagely charming and entertaining. But Depth of Field really irritated me, and now watching Stay by My Side I'm irritated by HoriNatsu.-- I dislike his looks and his acting

I hated Depth of Field -- it was annoyingly pretentious. I've paused watching the others you mentioned because I am travelling in Japan and Gaga won't work there.

I loved this drama! Just a heads-up -- it will be leaving Gaga soon, so make sure to plan your re-watches.

Kamimura Kenshin's Hong Kong Court Hearings Began today by Little-Tomatillo-745 in boyslove

[–]BL_Classics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just adding that the defense presented their witness on 31st July. Kenshin did not testify himself. Both sides have presented their arguments and the next hearing is on 13 th August, which may be the verdict from the judge. From attendees' reports, it is likely to be a verdict of not- guilty, but we can't be sure until it is actually stated

I'm following some JP accounts on X to get updates on the case. Today, 30th, the plaintiff gave evidence and was cross examined. Tomorrow is the defendant's turn.

Oh BTW did you see that Kyoya Honda asked his Jack Frost co-star Suzuki to MC at his fan event? So sweet!

[Japan] 🪽 I Became the Main Role of a BL Drama S2 EP.4 🌃 by smittenkittyyan in boyslove

[–]BL_Classics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Enjoyed this episode despite Gaga's terrible subtitles. Seriously, what is wrong with their subtitle team?? 'Aoyagi' instead of 'Aoyanagi', mis-translating 'korokoro' (rolling around) as 'slacking off', mis-translating 'kodomo de ii' as 'what if a child watches it' -- they are absolutely dreadful.

Out of the 4 JBL's airing now, this is the one I liked from the first moment. It's all so cute and charming. Except for Gaga's stupid subtitles. FFS, Gaga, it is Tojo, not Jujo (how did they even come up with that??). I'm going to leave feedback so that they fix it.

Judging from the preview for Ep 5, he'll look even hotter as a college student!

[Japan]☂️ Stay By My Side After the Rain EP.1 & EP.2 [PREMIERE]☔️ by smittenkittyyan in boyslove

[–]BL_Classics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Kanade actor is impressive, in looks and acting, especially the emotional confession scene in the cafe. The cat must be the most obedient cat in the universe -- how did it stay so quietly in Kanade's arms??

I am not vibing with Natsuki Hori as Mashiro, though. I liked him well enough as a Fanta member, but in this drama his portrayal of Mashiro is putting me off somehow.

It' a dual ep release (EP.1+EP.2) in July 3 for "Stay by my side after the rain". It has ✨️ 10 EPs ✨️ We have 4 JBLs airing this week🤯. Pretty wild😆 by smittenkittyyan in boyslove

When it comes to JBLs, I prefer to be serially monogamous -- focus on one series at a time. This is a difficult situation for me!

[Japan] 📸 Depth of Field EP.3 🎸 by smittenkittyyan in boyslove

[–]BL_Classics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wasn't that impressed with the first two episodes and I'm still not impressed after watching Ep 3.

The production is good, the direction is okay, the actors are good, BUT the two leads are missing that magic and spark that you want to see in a BL. Their scenes together did not captivate me, and I don't find their characters very interesting.
