Stop this was so cute!

This was an adorable, bite-size drama.

Story: This was a fun watch. Cool concept and overall entertaining. I did want more from this, I felt like it ended right when it got good. I wish we had an epilogue episode or something.

Acting/Casting: Perfect. I loved everyone! They all played their parts well and I could really feel the chemistry between the main characters!

Music/Visual: This part was well executed. I loved the special effects in each episode. They were such a nice touch!

Re-watch value: I can definitely see myself coming back to watch this one day!

Eh

Story: It was really kind of boring. Some things just didn't connect or make sense and I'm not sure if it was the translation or the show itself. I found parts engaging and interesting, but overall I wanted more from this show.

Acting/Casting: Despite the plot lacking the acting and casting were fine. The actor's talent is probably what saved this for me. The only thing I didn't like was the kiss. Some BL shows do a barely touching kiss on the lips, this was one of those shows.

Music: Suitable and enjoyable for the scenes.

Rewatch value: It's worth checking out once since it's so short, but I don't feel I will come back to rewatch it.

I enjoyed this!

I liked this more than I thought I would based on the premise. I will say without Kyoya, or an actor as expressive as he is, I would've rated it lower. I am very partial to Kyoya and will watch anything with him in it because of how expressive he is. The female lead was also good. I felt her pain and frustration. The husband was very stoic and I wish he wasn't so passive all the time.

The Christmas scene broke my whole heart. I just wanted to fly to Japan and hug Kyoya even though I know he wasn't actually heartbroken irl. My jaw hit the floor though. I was so shocked!

The ending was bittersweet and I hope we can get more of this story. I really wanted an ending with the three of them together because I felt like the female lead was coming around and accepting her true feelings, however it seemed to go a little haywire in the end.

Overall a good and engaging experience!

The acting was good...

So good that I hated them all! ?

I completed the Deepest Love story. I watched it for Bank, he made a stellar villain. This particular story was just completely off the rails and awful start to finish. If this is truly based on someone's life goodness... Rey was actually the worst character! (She did not deserve the attempted SA, but everything else was her own doing.) Nart was so spineless. He & Rey are the most idiotic characters I've ever seen. Like goodness gracious Rey could've prevented that whole mess by getting a grip and getting some help and Nart could've prevented it by saying no for once! Who marries a stranger & also then tries to force them to love them? ? Nart was gay and I cannot fathom someone like Rey. She was so insane.

Love Never Dies, I have 2 episodes left. I've skipped a lot because it is honestly boring. The mystery is intriguing, but I will not be rushing to finish the story, if I ever do.

If 2 + 2 is 4...

and 5 + 5 is 10... then wtf is this?

I stg. I'm normally in the minority of badly rated shows, I end up loving them, but my time has come to join the hate parade.

This gets a 1 star only bc of Long and Frank. JUSTICE FOR THESE MEN BC WTF WAS THIS SERIES?

The biggest sin of this show was that horrendous dubbing. I don't mind dubbing. I've watched plenty of dubbed shows, but this was TRASHOLA. The hmm, uhhhh, and hehehe's were so funny and not in a good way. Jail for whoever was responsible for this decision and editing. Jail.

By episode 3 I watched this muted so I could judge the show itself objectively without the horrendous dubbing tempting me to drop this show.

Unfortunately for me, the show still sucked. When we got to the big plot twist I was DYING laughing because it was so STUPID.

Also, where exactly was the romance????

If the show hadn't been dubbed its maybe a 3/10. With the dubbing it's a 1/10. Give these actors something better.

I'm so glad there are people who liked this though. At least this show wasn't a total waste.

I thought this was cute!

??? I thought this was adorable. I didn't like them much in TharnType or Don't Say No, but I ended up loving this! I like that their dynamics switched in these roles compared to the roles they usually take on personality wise.

The cringe parts are phased out after a few episodes, they're also intentional and I found them funny, but that's just me.

It IS funny to me that out of everything that happened, the notes are what did them in. The episode 11 curse. ? but overall this was a pretty low angst show and I had no issues with the NC scenes, they were all well done!

I tend to like most BLs that get review bombed. ? I enjoyed it. Super cute and hilarious!

I actually enjoyed this.

I'm confused by the negative review bombs this show got, I mean not everything is for everyone so that's fair. I understand some people are really triggered by cheating, but I personally love messy and drama filled shows.

To enjoy a show doesn't mean you support the actions within. Do we not enjoy horror movies, action/thriller movies with violence? It doesn't mean we encourage the behavior, we are simply just entertained by dramatic and engaging plots.

Truthfully no one in this show is innocent of wrongdoing. Whether it be lying, cheating, or just morally grey. I think people forget D was not committed to Tee or Nine (until the very end). Sure what he did was hurtful to Tee, but he was honest about his feelings where he struggled to get over Tee hurting him & starting over. He did shut Nine down constantly and expressed trying things again with Tee. It was messy, but the D hate I don't get! He was completely oblivious half the time to what drama was taking place around him.

Also hot take on Nine's ex P. Mental health issues are not a pass to treat people however you want. I hated her character. I was glad to see her healing in the end, but gosh it was a journey to even like her for 5 seconds. As someone with a mental illness, I could not excuse her behavior. She especially was abusive towards her best friend. Candy was shady, but with good intentions. Being in the middle of your 2 best friends is difficult and she struggled!

My only real complaint is the music sometimes was pretty weird for the scenes (especially the spicy scenes).

Anyway, I think if you like a lot of drama this show is worth a shot. I didn't find it boring, slow, or awful so maybe you won't either. Maybe you will. Who knows until you roll the dice!

I adored this!

This show is definitely fluffy and not meant to be so serious. It's intentionally cheesy nature is a trope I also love, so if it's not your thing you may not enjoy it. I agree with others that it was a little slow, but it still kept me engaged and I had a positive experience and would definitely rewatch it.

Every couple (especially the main) sold TFFFFFF out of those NC scenes! It took me so off guard since this was such a fun and silly show. ? but I loved it. ? It was also more realistic, like no "sexy" room or sheets, just your ordinary cat print bedding. ???

Short and sweet!

I loved this show through and through. The tsundere character trope is my favorite. Toki is such a green flag. The show really used these two to highlight a healthy line of communication and trust rather than the theatrics of jealousy.

My only complaints are:
-Sahara's former love interest got too much screen time.
-In the novel they are 16 & 24 and it appears they aged Toki up to 17/18, but then in the last episode they did a flash back with a little kid and Sahara to give us the we've met before, fate kind of trope. That really threw off the age gap and made it make zero sense. How would Toki go from that to a high school senior in a few years? ?
-The rain confession flashback was shown too much.

Overall, if you're looking for a cute and short JBL and you're not up in arms about an age gap, I highly recommend this one!
