Miseinen: Mijukuna Oretachi wa Bukiyô ni Shinkôchû

This one is extremely boring story with a pretty predictable plotline. The characters are flat one dimensional characters like straight out of a yaoi comic and characters have zero logic or motivations behind their actions. The so called poetic melody was redundant, shallow and repetitive and had very little depth or meaning to it. Minase acting like a girl whenever hirakawa messed with was honestly annoying. No reasoning was given why Hirakawa's father beat him up for no reason and why did Hirakawa took the theft allegation onto himself, trying to be a hero? Absolutely unrealistic and unrelatable! Certainly an overhyped show!

This series is an absolute masterpiece! From the very first episode, it grabs your attention with its stunning cinematography every frame is visually breathtaking and meticulously crafted. The electric chemistry between the characters is palpable, making their interactions feel incredibly authentic and heartfelt. The acting is flawless, with each performer delivering powerful, nuanced performances that bring their well written characters to life. The story is deeply emotional, with perfect pacing that keeps you hooked from start to finish. Every episode builds beautifully, creating a narrative that's both engaging and unforgettable. It's the kind of series you'll want to rewatch over and over, noticing new details each time. Without a doubt, this is a must-watch and a standout gem of 2024!

This Japanese TV series consists of 11 episodes and is adapted from a manga. The story follows two teenage boys who fall in love, offering a simple yet but heartfelt story. What sets it apart is its strong portrayal of the struggles of youth, the imagery and slice-of-life.

The story expresses the meeting of two different worlds, like two seas divided by borders. Minase is a top student who is highly focused on his studies, schedules, and grades. On the other side, Haruki is a troublemaker and mysterious boy who is the complete opposite of Minase. Despite their differences, they share one painful similarity: both come from broken families. Minase lives under the control of his strict mother, who forces him to follow her expectations, while Haruki suffers under the care of his alcoholic and abusive father. One day, Minase accidentally sees a different side of Haruki, leading their two separate worlds to intertwine. They begin to take notice of each other, though not as friends, as their differences keep them apart. However, as they learn more about one another, they slowly grow attached without realizing it. It is not until they watch a film made by Minase's father that they finally notice their feelings. They accept their love and begin a relationship unsure of what the future holds. Since controlling a relationship is challenging even for adults, the two teenagers struggle against the waves that push them apart. The story follows them as they handle these hardships, growing up and chasing their dreams. Years later, as adults, they meet again, bringing their journey full circle.

In my opinion, I absolutely love how the story beautifully expresses characters' development and their struggles in each episode. Every moment feels raw and real, making it easy to connect with Minase and Huruki's journey. The casts also express the personality and emotion of characters in a very beautiful way. Beyond the performances, the background music, images, and overall, perfectly match the storyline, enhancing the emotional depth of the series. As someone who has read the original manga, this adaptation exceeded my expectations in every aspect. It perfectly captures the aspect of the story, leaving a deep impact. The emotion and beauty of their relationship make this series stand out among other BL dramas.

To conclude, I highly recommend watching this show at least once in your life, even if you have never watched a Boys' Love series before. If you are a BL fan searching for a high-quality and realistic portrayal of love, this is a must-watch. I am certain you will fall in love with their story, just as I did. This is not just a romance, it is a heartfelt deeply heartwarming story of two boys whose paths unexpectedly collide, leading to a deep and meaningful bond. Do yourself a favor and watch it, you won't regret it!

In this hetero ocean, two fish appear, each with its own sea and deep down they have doubts about who they really are... Japan produces LGBTQ+ projects, ranging from complete strongholds to completely unrealistic pieces based on manga, but still Japanese society as a whole is not so open to human differences on the outside, traditions and uniformity are adhered to. This wonderful piece is proof of how these two characters were shy and approached their inner differences so cautiously. That is why, in my opinion, this series is so different from most others, which offer unreality, fairy tales and often we don't find many hetero characters in the project. Thanks to the director, the entire team and both guys who put that special Japanese charm and absolute REALITY into it, it is civil, HUMAN and for me not 10/10, but 11/10.

Someone here mentions whether the project would have been so highly rated if it weren't for BL. Of course it wasn't. After all, the hetero characters wouldn't have to fumble around so much, come to terms with their difference on the outside, and it would have been a completely normal series.

This show deeply resonates with me. As an adaptation of the manhwa, it captures the raw emotions of love, pain, and resilience in a way that feels profound and impactful. The characters, with their struggles and triumphs, remind me of the complexities faced by many in difficult situations.

Every moment feels authentic, and the chemistry between the actors is palpable. I found myself laughing, crying, and reflecting on these characters' strengths! It's more than just a story: it's a journey of the heart. If you seek something that touches your soul, this show is a must-watch. It lingers with you long after the final credits.
