A peculiar love affair
Doubtless, many theses could be written about the Japanese psycho-sexual cultural impulse. In this series, the character Hira’s low self-esteem manifests itself in a fantasy obsession with the aloof, vain and arrogant Kiyoi. The peculiar Japanese take on this relationship imbalance is that Hira welcomes and Kiyoi obliges with masochistic behaviours. The two lead actors do outstanding work portraying these flawed characters. Kioyi evolves through his trail of humiliating failures to achieve some humility and regard for Hira. Hira’s character, on the other hand, barely leaves his comfort zone of demeanment and in the end, the writers ask us to accept that Kioyi’s continual slurs are meant as tokens of affection instead of the corrosive verbal instruments of degradation that they actually are. In my opinion, this relationship does not have the happy future the show’s creators would like us to believe. Production values are good and the earnestness of everyone involved is without question.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
DISGUSTING / SAD*ST
I'm really surprised by the high rating of the series! Are you all mas*chists? The first episode was enough to raise my blood pressure!After he called him disgusting and b*llied him, he keeps his money and films him? What is this nonsense?
Where have we reached??
Don't watch this over

I really wanted to like this, it is now going to have a movie too
I really wanted to like this series, it was recommended to me, and I thought I was going to enjoy it, I love BLs, but no. I just couldn't enjoy this show at all, the actors did a great job acting in their roles but the plot of the show, the writing, and the no real character development bothered me. I wanted much more for this, and some parts confused me in the series, where I honestly felt like dropping it. I continued watching it till the last episode, and my mood didn't change. If I was Hira, I would have picked the friend who honestly really loved me and cherished me. That was the perfect option, but anyway. This show wasn't for me, but I'm sure it has fans that love it. So I recommend just watching the first episode to see if you would continue it or not. The actors did a great job in their roles; this had nothing to do with them. Just the writing of the series.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
