BL Series and Movies

I've tried to start watching this a couple of times and it just hasn't happened yet- something about it isn't grabbing my attention and I end up stopping before the first episode is over. Maybe it's because it's older, maybe it's because it's high school kids, hell maybe it's because of Drake's eyebrows- I don't know. I will try again when I'm desperate maybe.

Not going to lie, I watched it a while ago and can't recall much, but I did watch 2 Moons 2 so I obviously liked something about it! I do recall enjoying the actors in this version more, and there were issues that led to many of them being recast in the sequels. It's a classic, and I would say it's worth watching for sure, even if I can't recall everything.

Watched it as it came out- loved it up until the last episode. I haven't watched Still 2gether yet because I was angry, but I will watch it eventually. Still, this series did a lot to boost the popularity of Thai BL's outside of those already aware of them.

It's cute, it's fluffy, it's Japanese, and it's one of those shows you should just watch honestly.

I really, really enjoyed this show- OhmNanon have amazing chemistry and it was both heartfelt and funny. The enemies to lovers trope is strong with this one, but it's so well executed that I don't even care. Be prepared for warm fuzzies and a bit of frustration and then more warm fuzzies.

A must watch.

I love KornKnock, and I started watching this for them (Yiwah is also pretty great tbh) but I got to episode 8 and dropped it for some reason. I think it's worth a watch if you love KornKnock, but since Together With Me was filmed after this the stories don't exactly match up. It is mainly a straight drama, so be aware of that.

This has an incredibly pretty cast- like wow. It's sweet and frustrating like your general BL, some of the plot points felt a little drawn out but overall I don't regret watching this one. It gets extra points for being Taiwanese, simply because yay legalized gay marriage.

Watch if you have the time and want something a little sweet and a little angsty with decent, attractive actors.

I believe this has the highest rating I've ever given a BL (?) along with The Untamed. This series is absolutely beautiful- I was in awe when I watched it. Not just the story, but the cinematography and just... everything- it's an absolutely stunning show.

Watch it, watch it, watch it.

It's cute in some ways, I really like the MLs but it was pretty choppy in some parts and a little disjointed. Also, some of the editing was meh- but it's a web drama, so you can't pile expectations on it. I skipped the entire storyline of the straight couple tbh.

If you're looking for something short and sweet then this isn't the worst choice you could make, but it is in no way a great KBL.

It was pretty cute, I love EarthMix as a couple so I gave this a shot despite not being a fan of body-swapping stories (thanks The Shipper) and I really enjoyed it. I would recommend watching the version provided on YouTube- I started watching it there and then binged the last few episodes on a- ehem- different platform and they weren't as polished. Did it blow my mind? Not really, but it was cute and I enjoyed how they approached the body-swap aspect of it.

Watch if you're in the mood for a cute angry Mix and a doting Earth, if you're having a hangover from ATOTS or if you just wanna see two bros going on a time-sensitive road trip and running into ridiculous situations along the way. 

I'm torn on this one tbh. While I didn't dislike anything about it while I watched it, and the chemistry between all the actors was on point, there are a few issues I have with the plot. That being said, I don't regret watching it and didn't hate the ending. If you want something fluffy to watch, it isn't bad. If you want pretty actors, a LOT of intimacy, and some great singing scenes (Nunew is the first singer in a series like this that I haven't skipped at all tbh) then this is probably worth a watch. ZeeNunew is a beautiful ship and their chemistry is great on and off-screen.

Overall, worth a watch if you don't mind turning off your brain a little.

I need to rewatch probably, I don't recall much of it. I gave it a 7.5 which generally means I don't feel like I wasted my time (I mean if I finish it already says a lot,) but It obviously didn't blow my socks off since I can't remember much of the plot. 

Ugh- so much potential, and then just not. I have strong feelings about this, but I don't want to spoil so let me just say- it has its cute moments, but by the end you just kind of feel sorry for one of the MLs.  Watch it if you like a bunch of cute guys I guess, but it lost its allure pretty fast for me.

Okay, let's put it this way- I watched this once, didn't mark it as completed in my MDL, promptly forgot that I watched it, so I watched it again. It's cute, don't get me wrong, but it didn't stick in my head as a standout show. That being said, I did finish my rewatch of it so it isn't bad, just... average? Even now my goldfish brain is having issues recalling what happened in it, and I watched it just over a week ago. Also, they tried to make an obviously attractive person seem less attractive by making him a 'geek' but failed miserably IMO.

Watch it if you want something lighter- it's not bad, just not outstanding.

I'm watching as it is airing and getting mad at how short the episodes are. Is it groundbreaking? No, but it's really cute and has a somewhat fresh concept. I am interested to see where they take it, so for now I would say watch it, but if you aren't patient then wait until it's fully aired because a week's wait for only half an hour is just a crime.

This was cute and my first Filipino drama. I watched it right after it ended so I was still stuck in quarantine- not sure how it will hold up topically now that we are back out in the world but I think it was still well filmed and one of the first series filmed in the style it was, I believe.

Worth a watch for sure, it was super popular when it came out and the boys are cute.

I don't typically like ghost romances since I am a sucker for happy endings and they just generally... aren't? But this one was super cute and well done and is definitely worth a shot. I don't know why it wasn't as popular as some other BLs but you have Singto from SOTUS and Ohm from Bad Buddy and it's honestly super cute.

Definitely worth a watch, IMO.
