I’m Respect the Petty, and I love colors. I’m on my own little mission to annoy all of y’all about how colors, lighting, barriers, clothing, and other visuals enhance QLs and add depth to the story.
For those of you who keep asking me for a “Master List” (bleh!) since apparently it takes too much time to scroll through my insane amount of posts because I don't know how to stfu, here it is! Plenty of posts didn't make the cut simply because there is a limit, so I included the ones that delivered the most features from above, and if you search my tags by the series' titles, other posts regarding the show's colors should be able to be found.
The goods are below the cut 👇🏿
A quick overview of what I do and what the colors mean
Key:
Color Coding shows the main colors associated with the characters <- most of you are here for these
Barriers examine the physical barriers that separate characters in a scene and what they represent (emotions, miscommunication, etc.)
The Clothing Tells the Plot looks at a specific clothing item in a scene
Background Noise includes various elements like barriers, clothing telling the plot, lighting showing feelings, and general details for the show
Episode Reviews cover all of the above for each episode plus my unhinged ramblings

Notes:
If a link doesn't work or goes to the wrong post, let me know
If you have an ask or a request, feel free to send me a message, but be warned that I really don't shut the fuck up about colors, so you could get a ten-page report back in response
If you write a post about colors, lighting, barriers, clothing, or other visuals, feel free to tag me
I'll update this post at the end of each month depending on what discoveries I've made during that month (Updated: 4/15)
Now that you know who I am, remember that a world without colors is a world devoid of emotions and feelings, so embrace the magic and follow me down this chaotic path of visual rhetoric.

Because I never know what the actual title is when it comes to a Japanese BL . . .
Cool Serizawa Acts Weird To Me or Popular Serizawa Acts Weird To Me or Serizawa, Who Hangs Out With The Popular Kids, Acts Strangely Around Me premieres August 10. No international platform announced yet.
I guess this is the year for BL meta because the plot revolves around loser Suzuki who is writing a BL novel based on cool kid Serizawa who eventually reads it and LIKES IT!
The director is Ryo Kawasaki (At 25:00, In Akasaka), the screenwriter is Subaru Yamashita (School Trip: Joined A Group I’m Not Close To), and the actors are Kosaku Koizumi as Hajime Suzuki and
Ryoto Shisaka as Haruto Serizawa. I can't find anything acting-wise for Ryoto, but Kosaku is the last and final member of GNJB (Genin wa Jibun ni aru) to act in a BL, so they are like the BL Thanos of Japanese boybands now.
Will you do me the honor? What’s with you? No way. It's embarrassing. Look around. What is there to be embarrassed of? These people saw us kiss before. Won't you do this for me? I know this ain’t your thing. But I’ve been waiting for a romantic moment like this for so long, you know?

Lin Pei Yu's Double Shuffle started filming today:
this is the story of Fan Jiang Rui Chen, cousin of Fan Zhe Rui in Kiseki: Dear to Me
Michael An will reprise his role as Fan Jiang Rui Chen
Lin Chia Wei will play Fan Wei Hsia
Jin Yun plays Fan Wei Hsia's junior from school
adapted from Lin Pei Yu's novel of the same name
(maybe we'll also see Fan Zhe Rui and Bai Zong Yi, at least as a cameo. this is less a sequel more of a spin-off of Kiseki but it is the same universe)

Is it fun?! Playing with people's feelings like this?! What are you talking about? Why did you kiss me? You came to work here because of Wine, so why did you kiss me? Did you think I was easy so you could just do whatever you wanted with me? You still don't get it? Get what? If I liked Wine, why would I kiss you? I don't know. Then figure it out already.
