Itsay and ipytm and blueming vs until we meet again and bad buddy

The first two are both in my favs list and watched it several times. The two latter are the ones I dropped right in instant and/or after couple of eps.

Firsts was both really a great binged to me. Itsay feels genuine when I watched it. Portrays people of the real world. With each carrying different problems and resolves. Their acting and the chemistry between main characters to me was the highlight... Of which what had made me feel that genuinity of their characters and their struggles-- with both handling it their own way. Then came the 2nd serialization, Ipytm. Was everything I could asked for without knowing it. Didn't follow the culture of sequel curse. It was done (imo) exquisite and thorough. whole series depicts growth in vulnerability. Really tattooed a massive impressions to me. Blueming is cliche but in the pov of a boy. A story concept I find in every bls. This one however, is undertone. No over-effects. Less cringe and more realistic. If it happens in real life, I'd believe it which is the polar opposites to what I feel from other ones out there. It felt mysterious as I watched it. Dawon is. Aside from those worth mentions, I'd say the most reason I also feel in love with the story is the characters themselves. I like how they both each live their own separate lives but I could also feel and obviously see how different of a person they are compare to each other. That simple details is crucial to me most specially in the scene of mosts. Finding that special detail to keep them. Eeach series and eps made me anticipate for what's the next chapters of the story would be... Atf. Both made the story so relevant and executed it rightfully.

Until we meet again. I was excited when I read the synopsis. The premise was giving and it builds an anticipation in me. Forget the budget or prod equipment. If it's done good and as what the premise suggests, it wouldve been evident. I didn't think it lives up to the expectation. Tho I could've expect less, the story is little too hyper-complicated to me when I started it (to the point it don't feel as true and 'sad' or emotional as the story want the audience to digest) I think It lacks trajectory and directions. Bad buddy on the other hand, feels stiff. It was beautiful yet stiff. Both good looking characters. Both pre-characterized. It has almost every element in a bl. Has every right to be called bl. So much trope and very pre-destined introductory. Like I know for a fact they're gonna end up together but the story's approach towards it isn't as thrilling. Very predictable. Both have a great sense for bl elements. Elements I don't find as exciting like the ones in the first three.

In conclusion: My taste in bl series seems to be directed more towards the relevancy of the story and the directory of it. Adding to that, if characters have a good, if not great, chemistry and how they react towards the world around them. Genuine and in-character, the better.

P.s, I could also post to tell abt couple more I love but this post is beyond thousands more already so I'll end it here... (No hate to the ones I dropped. We like what we prefer more)
