They are having dinner in a restaurant that is aboardContinue reading “Love sick Season 1 Episode 6”

Synopsis Phun/Noh Story Aim is buying shoes. Phun is almost falling asleep sitting there waiting for her to decide which shoes to buy. Noh is following them like a hound. While watching this all I could think is, how many pairs of shoes does she really need? She has like 3 or 4 bags fromContinue reading “Lovesick Season 1 Episode 5”

I am not going to write a long synopsis or analysis for this show but I thought I would give it a quick review. This show is the first official BL series from the Phillipines. In terms of BL, it has the feel of a Thai BL. If you see my article on what isContinue reading “Gameboys Episode1-4”

Synopsis and notes Oh, the infamous first episode of Love Sick! I remember when I first watched this episode I almost dropped the show. Rumor has it that the feedback from this first episode was so bad that the producers changed the script for the second episode but alas that is untrue. The reality isContinue reading “Love sick Season 1 Episode 1”

Often called “The Mother of all BL shows”, Lovesick was the first true BL series ever aired in Thailand and the first show of its kind aired anywhere in the world.
