our nights are more beautiful than their days

what am I gonna do, Team?

Some of them are definitely potential new all time, so I need to talk about them! This is them from my least favourite to favourite:

10. Takara-kun to Amagi-kun (JP)

A pure boy and popular boy like each other and start dating. I’m not a huge fan at the moment, but it has time to get better. I really liked Amagi’s energy, but he’s a bit too naïve for me. Takara has that aloof/cool vibe. This doesn’t feel like anything incredible or special YET, but Jdrama B.L.s are my faves so I’m going to have hope and continue with this one! (ep 2/8)

9. Vice Versa (TH)

2 boys d*e and wake up in an alternate universe, they need to find their “portkey” to go back to their world. Oh! How disappointed I was with this series! So, the fantasy element is barely used in this drama, a better synopsis is: 2 boys decide to make a romance films together, as they do they start to fall in love. I was so excited for a proper fantasy series, but it’s more an above average, cute romcom. (ep 7/12)

8. War of Y (TH)

4 pairings and their struggles in the industry. This is dark and messed up, but that’s the BL industry. The 1st storyline interested me the most, so I’m unsure if I’ll continue after- plus it’s really hard to watch these characters being hurt repeatedly. But the leads are incredible - their acting/chemistry is WOW! This may be too sad for me, and the message may be a little murky, but it’s still a very necessary series. (ep 5/20)

7. The Eclipse (TH)

At a prestigious boys school every Eclipse something bad happens to rule-breaking students. The head prefect and a rule-breaker start to fall in love. I’m really liking this. It’s so weird to see First play such a stiff character, but he’s doing great and him and Khaotung have good chemistry. I like that it’s enemies to lovers and I’m liking them gradually getting closer. (ep 3/12)

6. 180 Degrees Longitude Passes Through Us (TH)

A 20yr old and his mother get lost on a road trip and stumble upon his de*d fathers best friend. This is feels so intense and heavy. And I’m really intrigued to see where it will go! But the thing is this should be my favourite series, it’s slowburn, it’s visually stunning, I love the music and the leads have great chemistry, but for some reason it’s not my favourite at the moment. Maybe I’m in my messy faze? (ep 3/8)

5. My Only 12% (TH)

The story of 2 best friends and their changing relationship as they grow up. I’m not a fan of school dramas or New’s dramas but THIS IS BRILLIANT! News being a creative director for once! And Earths character may be a little whiny but he’s so relatable! Santas is so lively, charismatic and real - he’s doing the performance of a lifetime - it’s only his 2nd job! It’s so cute that it’s heart fluttering and the friendship actually feels real. (ep 3/14)

4. About Youth (TW)

A lonely popular boy and a quiet musician become close, but need to run against each other for school president. I’ve been excited for this for a year and it’s so perfect! The lead’s interactions are unbelievably adorable and the music is the best thing ever - I’m obsessed! This director makes all my favourite Taiwanese projects and she’s done it again! But why is it the length of a Korean B.L!? (ep 2/8)

3. Love in the Air (TH)

This is about 2 pairings each where 1 boy is chasing the other. Putting this so high might be controversial, but I seriously loved almost every single wonderful messy minute of the first 2 eps. The production is high, the actors are all charismatic and gorgeous and I’m just having so much fun watching the first couples story unfold. Their chemistry is actually ridiculous! I’m excited to see the second couple meet. (ep 2/13)

2. Love Mechanics (TH)

Mark is in love with his senior, but he doesn’t feel the same. Broken-hearted he sleeps with Vee, who has a girlfriend. I liked the mini series, but I wasn’t really excited for this. But I was so wrong! This series is giving me all the drama and chemistry that I want. Vee is so so charming and Mark breaks my heart constantly. It’s all the cliches I usually hate, actually done well! This is my biggest surprise of the year so far! (ep 8/10)

1. Minato’s Laundromat (JP)

At 27, Minato moves back to his hometown, there he meets Shin a high school student who has a crush on him. Yes, I know this is a problematic premise, but this drama is so beautiful! It’s from some of the Cherry Magic team, the leads chemistry is INSANE and the characters are incredible: Minato is adorable, Shin is the best confident gay ever and Asuka just loves the drama and I love him for it! (ep 8/12)

You know, I’m worse than Three-Minute Curry. Three-Minute Curry can win over people’s tastes in three minutes, but my lyrics can’t. Call me Curry from now on. It’s only right.
