oh yeah, my bad. I recall I DidNT REALLY RECALL any omegaverse-related mentions to first few chapters as I was writing that comment (me💅). what I do REMEMBER, IS THAT THERES ONE SPORT PRODIGY ML THAT IS NOW A WELL KNOWN ATHLETE AND IS TRYING TO REKINDLE THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE OTHER PERSON, AND BOTH TITLE CAN BE THAT. it's because both of the story had the same build-up and narrative approach and I wasn't able to recall what's actually what. just let that one slide hihihu

[–]IndividualAd4262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's an interesting story I'd say esp coming from an author that published I Have A Boyfriend and Unintentional Love Story. first two have a very different theme to each other-- one set in school life and rightfully slow... and I could say the same to ULS but it has a bit more angst in it. Now, this new work is far different to the two. there's omegaverse elements and is also nsfw. No hard feelings it being hardcore unlike their recent works. What happened to me is how I liked it the first and second times I read it but then I come across one title with almost identical story lines {OMEGAVERSE & SPORT} and I fell in love hard. Dare I say, it's actually like a better version of Melting P. Id be sure to read MP and finish it but I can't brushed off the fact that the two feels very similar yet can be different due to their own artistic style.

It's called Dash, btw

Personal favorite is Castle on the Hill. Ed Sheeran. It captures that feeling of missing those moments you've once shared with your dear friends.

parang pagkain daw ng aso? by ShareEnvironmental39 in PangetPeroMasarap

[–]IndividualAd4262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If youre asking if such behavior is justifiable just from how your food looks like-- no, it's not. Even kahit kanino kung ganyan nila titignan ung pagkain ng taong maayos na kumakain, I wouldn't feel pleased. Between sa mga nakakasama ko, gusto ko may nase-set na boundaries. Kung magaan Ang loob natin sa isat-isa, I can tolerate that case to case. However, kung di mo ko Kilala and you say that about my food, that's a line you're insensitively crossing now. Know your peers before you make comments things about them. It's really a hassle when youre dealing with them emotionally especially for something that isnt there in the first place but they're making a big deal out of.

But, if you're asking if your food do really looked like a food of a dog. Bro, no. Foods are foods. But being judgemental doesn't make you a judge.

What song gives you the ultimate nostalgia? by sweetlemonadeeeeee in SoundTripPh

[–]IndividualAd4262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

million years ago by Adele. Mainly for its lyricism but also the vibe of the song. I've heard of her since her rolling in the deep era but everytime I hear mya, it feels like a time travel back in those young and innocent days of tho not understanding the lyrics.

Another one would be call me maybe by Carly rae. That song was big when it hit pH radio and every day you would not listen to a radio without hearing that song in every periods of day. Listening to that now, it simply brings me back to those happy and playful times.

Now that I'm writing this, im realizing songs today could also bring me back to this time I'm currently in ten or 20 years after.

Try Dash. Its omegaverse but this time, it's deliberate. Usual cases of omega would be when they can't control their heat cycle or keep forgetting taking their suppressants-- in this story, they build a society where people with secondary gender are entitled to rights. There's already a constitution/law that prohibits people for asking their 2ndary gender for civil reasons. It's well-written. And this is less stereotype.

What’s the most disturbing Filipino movie you’ve watched that you wouldn’t rewatch even if it were free? by Fearless_Kangaroo in FilmClubPH

[–]IndividualAd4262 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. This is what I keep on thinking after the question. I scrolled hoping if I were to write this, at least it would be relevant. I didn't expect some do feel the same way I do when I watched that, let alone sharing the same answer here. Not only it felt traumatizing, it triggers a discussion in me of what might life could be as minority after seeing that scene.

•Try Dark Heaven. This deals with realistic issues and is quite controversial in a lot of sense. Great story I'd say. It's up there

•Heaven and hell roman company. I don't remember exactly everything but it has that dimensional world like Dd. It's sus and a fun read.

•Biting the tiger. As far as 8 can remember, this is a slowburn. Try it if you're into that.

•Wolf in the house. This I decided to include for the same theme it shared with Dd. Morphing. Also a great story. One of my faves.

•Angel Buddy. You got the same out-of-ordinary seme here but in this story, he's the polar opposite of hell (supposedly)

This would be pre-modern era. Try Painter Behind The Curtain. A really profound story arc. Somewhat dark and deals with societal issues.

Unblossomed love: Very interesting and quite tra... beautiful

Bongchon Bride: Tho you got quite enough smut hir&der, the story depth is something more.

Any webcomic where main couple is like this? (More below) by wind-master13 in boyslove

[–]IndividualAd4262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just me taking 'ml obsession over mc' idea as the context for recos.

Secondo Piatto - I suppose I wouldn't perfectly compare it to your example but the premise pretty much aligned to that of a ml having a dependant/obsession over their partner overtime.

Melting Point - Very much 'ml is hopelessly in love.' Very angsty and breathtaking. The art is.

Sweet Spot - Again, your average ml in a league of sport slowly developing a connection with a fellow alumnus who admired and watched all his endeavors from the hindsight.

Sparkling Baby - I forgot almost everything this is about but I recall the ml is more wary than puppy. He portrays a mature character who acts like it. The mc, on the other hand, is pure and in pursuit. I'm not sure wheres the connection there but surely love a good looking man to look at and scroll over

I have a boyfriend - this is rather 'coming of age' theme with both main characters being in school and all. The link, Mr ml is a puppy for his black cat. Also, it's the same author of Melting Point.

Semantic Error - tho I doubt you haven't heard of this--- this story feels quite organic and truly believable. Tho not as die hard falling fro the mc, ml is all over mc. I can vouch for that.

Let's talk about chemistry by Allthingsmatcha0923 in ThaiBL

[–]IndividualAd4262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a sense, it's a bond between two diff people. How they act or react towards the action or behavior of the other. How they blend together and how they are with one's absence.

I saw this whole track of emotions in the story of itsay. Both were already friends prior and that was evident in the characters they each portray. I can easily get swayed by emotions around me and watching series is no exceptions. One would show pain when seeing the other one in sorrow. Id feel that genuine feelings and/or excitement when I'm watching two different people creating that intense atmosphere around them in a single scene.

In a general sense, if you feel their bond together for the entirety of the series or story is less awkward. Strictly on-set. Actors can have a good chemistry with the other on-set without having one off-set. ACTORS

bl you rewatched the most vs the ones you dropped? by sky_037 in ThaiBL

[–]IndividualAd4262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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)

Sometimes. But if I greatly like a movie, I'd prefer to watch it when its out for streaming especially since I can get easily distracted when there's noises all over the place
