HEADPHONES RECOMMENDED!!
Oh godI was so confused after I finished watching this, because I was too giddy about the sex scenes (which were filmed way too good, so suggestive and yet, you can't see nothing) but I was also extremely sad with the whole story reveal. The ending is somewhat.. I don't know how to phrase it- it is good, but also, kinda fu*ked up. So, yeah. I liked it though.
Tbh, I didn't know, whether I was sad or feeling horny.
Or maybe both.
I just, have never been so confused with my reaction to a movie before 😂
But, I am so so glad that this movie, was one, made in Japan (yay! progress) and second, that they added such a mature and thriller theme to a BL, like great job!
Also, the actors did a fu*king amazing job with their acting man, like holy fu*king sh*t- they were crazy good!
I am glad I watched it but also in the story, some very questionable choices were made made and there should be a trigger warning because like the plot states, it is sexual torture that happens, so please, be warned.
Anyways, I totally recommend this movie for anyone who is okay with steamy, yet some highly strong and offensive sex scenes, cause this baby is packed with them!
Also, it's on Netflix. Yay!

oh okay
WOW is all I can say. Funny enough I found out about this movie through an 18+ tik tok recommendation. I should have definitely read reviews or what it was about beforehand. Either way, I don't believe anyone should watch this if you are someone who can't handle topics that involve rape, sexual assault, or related things to do with Stockholm syndrome. While I never would have chosen to just watch this on my own, I wasn't disappointed, if you can move past the obvious hard parts to watch (non-consensual sex, among others) then the story is actually somewhere in there and elaborates on different things that are real. All I can say is watch with an open mind, not a closed one!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Intense!
This was a seriously intense movie. I happened to find it from a Music Video someone had done with scenes from the movie and translated into English. I read what they said about it and thought ok why not try. Psychological, intense and graphic. It is graphic. Be warned.The acting was really good especially for the character Makoto. Both were really good but he was amazing. What he was going through you could feel his pain, fear and every other emotion he had.
I am not sure I could re-watch it. But it does have the potential. I thought it was a well done movie that is why I rated it higher.

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS GOOD
ok ok so i'm usually really picky in BL's and rarely enjoy them the way i did while watching this! i know that sounds bad considering the plot of this, but i think this was a very well done movie. it kept me hooked and interested, and i had more fun watching this low-budget R18 movie rather than a trashy high-budget k-drama with no character development.story: great story overall! i loved the character development that happens between both characters. my only question was how did mc fall for the seme so quickly after escaping? that was kind of weird nd a bit rushed, but i went along with it cause it kept the story moving.
acting/cast: the mc's actor was phenomenal! his acting was superb, the noises he made during the R18 scenes weren't necessarily realistic, but i loved that because it was so much better than dramas with the just seme moaning. both actors did well overall, the facial expressions and dialogue were well done.
music: the music suited the scenes it was in, so no complaints there.
rewatch value: oh yea would def rewatch it, especially for the R18 scenes.

Violación y sexo no consentido
Esta película japonesa +18 basada en el manga del mismo nombre es muy dura, hay escenas explícitas y violentas de sexo no consentido y BSDM a "full", por tanto, si estás acostumbrado a "cute" BL como Kieta Hatsukoi, Cherry Magic o las miniseries BL coreanas vas a quedar bastante descompuesto. Aún así y con el corazón encogido por el pobre protagonista, indignada por el no consentimiento y el abuso, y con necesidad de darle al "stop" en algunos momentos que eran demasiado para mi, la he visto hasta el final y creo que es una película muy bien hecha y muy bien actuada. Los protagonistas hacen creible esta increible historia y esos, a mi entender , inverosímiles personajes!El debate está servido entonces,:debemos valorar bajo la película porque relativiza en cierta manera la violación y hace apología del sexo violento? Cierto que la mayoriá estaremos de acuerdo que no se deben consentir para nada estas actitudes y se debe condenar y penalizar duramente cualquier tipo de abuso y de no consentimiento!!! Pero en este caso y con todas las advertencias posibles debo valorar también unas actuaciones sobresalientes y hasta sobrecogedoras de la pareja protagonista. Están los dos fantásticos. Mención aparte la escenografía , la fotografía, la música que consiguen adentrar al espectador en ese mundo oscuro y asfixiante y nos transmiten todos esos sentimientos de los protagonistas con brutal claridad.
Es curioso como una película tan oscura y desgarradora tiene un mensaje muy claro de amor a la vida: tu vida es valiosa, es hermosa, ámala, apasiónate por tu vida aunque duela, la muerte, el suicidio no es una opción. El mensaje es muy bonito, lástima que la terapia con la que se aplica este "amor a la vida" es completamente denigrante e inaceptable!!
No desvelaré el final, que es visualmente y estéticamente lo más luminoso y claro de este film. Sólo decir que roza el género fantástico porque en la vida real NO DEBERÍA SER POSIBLE!

If you don’t like forced sex stay away from this one
Basically a hostage rape movie if you're into that type of thing go ahead watch it.But If sex against your will triggers of anything for you I suggest to keep far away from this one because other than the characters back stories that’s all the movie is basically about.
The actors did a great job but the storyline was to much for me

NEVER AN OPTION
I have to say that I didn’t liked this title because, I know that there are so many things that they bring in this, but the super Stockholm syndrome is too much for me. He says he was trying to make him want to live but, hey, that’s not the way to do so. It was so so violent and sometimes (always) too much. I also have to say that I liked the final, like the very end, the two last scenes, if you forget everything that happened before, it is a beautiful scene if you focus on it. So yeah, the acting was awesome, they did so well and the production is also good, but it doesn’t compensate the rest. So yeah, i give it a 2.5 because I liked the last 2 scenes and the 0.5 for the acting itself.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Not for anyone who has suffered trauma in their life
When I first watched this movie I was drawn to it by one of the commenters the music was pretty good. I was confused about the young man and what he was being kidnapped tortured and into the bondage thing. But the movie shows about the ghost of the kidnapper and the young man who was being tortured past. Throughout the whole movie they learn to confront their demons. The kidnapper is trying to show the young man how to live his life through pain and pleasure. The more pain and pleasure he feels the more alive he feels. And the more pain he feels that's when his survivor instinct kicks in. The young man suffers a severe loss and everything in his life spirals out of control. Even though the kidnappers job is to save people's lives he was having a hard time living his after suffering a similar loss. Finally when the young man goes free and knows the truth. He finally wants to live in a set free. And in the process he helps the kidnapper get free of his demons as well. He was held prisoner for how long how many days was conditioned. I mean in the end he ends up helping the kidnapper. I was thinking he was suffering from Stockholm syndrome. Could be but you can tell by his expression and the way he communicates with his kidnapper who said him free that the young man is actually free. I know the torture and bondage and rape scenes were pretty intense. But that's because the actors did a really good job and the music helped to. But I was really enjoyed the ending. Because they really helped each other. And I have rewatched this like three times already cuz I really enjoyed it. And it actually looks like they're having sex it is. It is a very good psychological thriller the acting is very good because the torture scenes look so real. After the second time over watching yet I kept thinking I couldn't imagine doing that in front of the cameras how many takes hesitant to do that. Because it looks like it's actually like soft p***. This is not for the fate of heart I give it a 9 out of 10.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Side eye...
So the only real issue I have with this movie really is the implications of it. The older I get, the more irritated I become with media having irresponsible messaging and this could totally be me having missed something or not understanding.There is NO consequence for Yoda's actions. None. He kidnapped, tortured, violated and repeatedly raped katsuguri and NOTHING happened to him. In fact, the story is told in such a way that you're supposed to PITY him and feel bad!!
Let's be clear, there is NO excuse for what Yoda did and I don't care what state katsuguri was in. My problem is that the story implies that this behavior is fine if you have enough trauma and you choose "the right" target which is insane.
Overall the movie itself was fine but the undertone is absolutely terrible.
