Hi, you depressed goblin! You want a sad BL to stop being sad about your life and to be sad about something else? Here you go!
- They are both sad/bittersweet ending BLs.
- Mitsuru and JaeWoo both had to lose their loved one, and they knew it would not end well.
- Both showcase an alive ML in a relationship with a dead ML.
They are good dramas for when you want to feel sad and traumatized. I have yet to recover from the ending of both. Beware of the afterward impacts.
Good watch! (and good luck with all the trauma <3)

Both titles feature a lead character who was a friend, and love interest, to the other lead before suddenly passing away due to an accident. The deceased leads, Koichi (Eternal Yesterday) and Meiko (Anohana), get to spend time more with their love interests, even after death, giving them a chance to better express any feelings they may not have spoken out loud yet. They also get to do things together that they may not have had the chance to do anymore due to the fact that one passed away.
Narasaki always wished he had a quiet space to study in, so it should be a blessing in disguise that he gets to help at the library reception desk. However, he was suddenly selected to supervise Terashima, a student with bad behavior who is famous on campus. At first, the two did not talk, but in the library, where only the sound of turning pages resonates, Narasaki gradually begins to take an interest in Terashima, who has a mysterious personality.
Koichi is cheerful and popular in the class. Mitsuru is talented and not good at socializing. The two high school students are strongly attracted to each other due to their opposite personalities. However, one morning, Koichi is hit by a truck in front of Mitsuru. Koichi got up on the spot and smiled as usual, and although he was indeed "alive", his classmates gradually began to forget about Koichi's existence.
One day, Akihiro Miyata, a mid-level editor at a business magazine, visits popular university associate professor Takashi Iwanaga to ask him to write an economics column. However, that person was his first love, whom he broke up with during his high school days! It has been more than ten years since he moved to Tokyo.
Miyata, who had completely sealed off the past where he had a big love affair to the point where he promised to elope, was able to find a girlfriend who was thinking of marrying him and was living a “normal” life. Even after they meet again by chance, Miyata treats him as a business partner and vows never to fall in love with Iwanaga again.
However, he is as beautiful and talented as ever… Iwanaga’s pace, which repeatedly speaks sweetly to him… His work and private life are at the mercy of him!? Ideals, reality, pride… An over-30 boy who can’t be as honest as he used to be meets his soulmate again. What will happen to this frustrating “second” love, full of tactics…!?

The new employee Kazuma, who returned to Tokyo from America, reunites with his close friend from middle school, Ren, who is currently working as the top designer at their company. It is their first meeting since the abrupt farewell during their third year in middle school, 10 years ago. Ren was his best friend and his first love. He is as strong and good-looking as ever… And Kazuma is happy just being with him. However, Ren avoids the subject of their time in middle school rather unnaturally and acts like a friendly former-classmate… But he’s behaving this way because he is gay, and above all, fears being rejected by Kazuma. Yet one night, the two of them get together again…?
It reminds me of history 3: MODC with how one of them was smart and quiet but the other one was more social. Even though in history our social boy was bullying our quite boy before he fell in love with him but I think the way one of the main characters had an accident from both dramas are similar so you will love it.

The relationship with a "dead" person kinda reminds me of Something in my room. The characters personality and dynamic are also pretty similar, the quiet and calm guy with the guy who is all the time after him. The sad and angst feelings, both with tragedy plot and the passionate romance between the leads is a good complement of both series.
