Miseinen: Mijukuna Oretachi wa Bukiyô ni Shinkôchû

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.

This is another school themed BL series, the kind about a good student falls for a bad boy. I guess this opposite attracts stuff is indeed a popular one. Maybe because it's all about the forbidden fruit, especially when it's about BL. It doubles the guilty pleasure. Although technically, the bad boy in this story wasn't really a bad seed. He's just a victim of unfortunate circumstances and a bad parent. The plot was very straightforward, with zero plot twists. The visual was good, just like the acting. There's no heavy sex scenes in it, in case you're wondering. And for those who hate sad endings, rest assured, you're not gonna find any in this movie.

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!

Ranking it a good drama, my score for this love story covers exactly one aspect- yearning. I watched a reel featuring one of the leads feeding the other water. Emotion depicted by the actors and framing of the scene escalated a tint of salvation through love in my perspective. Complete surrender exhibited by 'Haruki', "infect me, even a little" impressed me. Plot was nothing new but it succumbed me to watch, waiting every week. Story is set in modern Kanto prefecture based on a Korean Manhwa. Kisses looked influenced from 'Doukyusei'. The actors were not only compatible but also apt for the roles. Kenshin has a gravitational gaze. Junsei being a fudanshi aided their cozy romance. Scriptwriter has done a great work in condensing the webtoon into a short drama that looked native. It would have been far more intense if made in the original language.

Everything is good until it is not. Don't delve into personal lives. Let the narrative remain wholesome in your last impression.

I've read a lot of BL stories, fanfics, I've watched lota of animes, dramas, and this one is the best one so far.

It's subtle, it's sweet and realistic. There's no dumb humor, no cringe, no caricatural showcase of homosexuality. They start of as friends, and they really care for each other which can be shown mostly in their actions. Words aren't needed. They support and help each other, they look out for one another... The portrayal of emotions is incredible. I love the characters, I love that they're not perfect and have flaws. But they find each other and bloom, realizing there's more to life than they thought. Minase taught Hirukawa that studying and college can be rewarding, Hirukawa taught Minase that not all relationships are meaningless. The slow, increasing love, is very soft and pure. The drama shows hardships and family dysfunctions, too. To me, it's so much more than just a "cute gay show". Also, the story might seem mundane or boring for those who don't see the details and little symbols. You won't enjoy it if you aren't sensitive or empathetic. I enjoyed every second of it and watched it all so fast because I got glued to the story... I'm tired of BL series with no communication, with toxic relationships, awful jokes and unrealistic gay stereotypes. "Our youth" is beautiful, sweet, domestic... and realistic. Watch it.
