I think if I had a penny for every time someone asked me, “What is the best BL series you have watched?”, I would have at least… ten dollars? Seriously, the most common questions in BL forums are “What is your favorite BL?”, “What is the best BL series?”, “What do you recommend?” and variationsContinue reading “And the best BL series ever is…”

A Tale of Thousands Stars: Synopsis, review and analysis
Tired of boys in blue shorts and stories about engineers falling in love with doctors? Look no more!

Looking back: Seven years of Love Sick…
(7/19/2021 EDIT: The original article had the airing date of Love sick wrong, which is weird considering that elsewhere in this site I have it correctly listed as 2014. I apparently confused the airing of S2 with S1. My apologies!) In July of this year, Love Sick turns 7 years old! The series, which firstContinue reading “Looking back: Seven years of Love Sick…”
Episode 11 and 12 Review

Love Sick Season 1 Episode 10 Review
The episode opens with a beautiful shot of Noh and Phun at the beach taking in the sun rise. It is in a very obvious blue palette. I will talk about this scene later in my analysis below. Back at the all-gay school, I mean, all-boy school, we see the Angel’s gang sitting together andContinue reading “Love Sick Season 1 Episode 10 Review”
Love Sick Season 1 Episode 9 Review
Synopsis The intro song is different here. Instead of Shake, we get the much somber “Passed” by Gunsmile. First scene is an in-show ad with our lovely boy Per. I know he looks unattractive here but trust me, he will grow into a very handsome young man. He is one of several former Love SickContinue reading “Love Sick Season 1 Episode 9 Review”
Why My Day The Series is a Disney Fairy Tale
Mabuhay! That’s how they say cheers in Tagalog, a fitting way to start this blog about the Pinoy BL series My Day (#MyDayTheSeries). When the My Day trailer first came out, we all noticed the Disney-esque vibe of the show.
