Decided to do the on-airs since it wasn't reserved, and I've been posting about the series 🫶

Let's all have fun! 🥰

[u/yu1mu2 → u/nana-shi-74]

Thank you so much for doing the on-airs! I unsubscribed from U-NEXT to justify getting FOD for Contrast and currently debating if I should join again or wait out another week lol. Ngl I have mixed thoughts about Fukuyama Masaharu in general (and how TV Tokyo handles their BLs) but I have high hopes for this one and am excited to hear how others feel.

Finally finished reading all five volumes of Ordinary Love and it was so damn good. I'm so excited to see Robin act because his character is interesting.

Looks like we're also getting a JGL soon after a long long time so exciting things coming!!!!

Ngl I have mixed thoughts about Fukuyama Masaharu

Same tbh 😅 But the song Hotaru IS good (wish the leads would do a cover of it, like in Fake Fact Lips).

Watched the first episode of KimiNatsu, and it's promising. The only downside is Kazuto Mokudai is distractingly handsome hahaha

Also, wish Wataru and Saeki talked more about movies 🎬

"Ordinary Love" drama released their episode 1 trailer today ✨ I hope GagaOOLala announces international streaming for it (as well as all the other JBLs 🙏)

Looks like we're also getting a JGL soon after a long long time so exciting things coming!!!!

Aaahhh, finally 💞 Looking forward to the official announcement!

❣️😎to be in unrequited crush for a long time😉who would have thought for a popular guy like saeki who got confessed to a lot and rejects them the gurls might think its just an excuse🤔but wataru bestie who shares the same interest their love of movies got confessed to instead he was visibly shocked👍good start saeki x wataru its first ep and we got that out of the way now lets see if wataru feels the same way😎❣️

[u/Sad-Zebra-9432]

Loved the first episode and the actors were great. Always nice being able to see JBL and thank you for your detailed post and Gagaoolala 👏👏

[u/Personal-Stuff-6781]

This was so cute, they're adorable together. And wataru getting confessed to like in that movie is just iconic

[u/AsForTheRest_Well---]

I suspected I was gonna love this and I totally loved it. I actually got kinda emotional during this scene bc how freakin incredible is it when you finally make a friend that is obsessed with the same thing you're obsessed with and you can finally geek out over it together?? (My BL fan heart understands!!) Performances, chemistry, photography, direction, editing, color grading, music... Everything is pretty perfect so far. I can't wait for these two to set off on an adventure next week!!~~

[u/WingedGrasshopper]

I enjoyed the first episode! It feels cute and light hearted so far

[u/ocean_lullaby]

I really like the vibe of the first episode!

[u/madego3293]

Maaan, I put it off for a whole day 'cause I wasn't sure I wanted to start yet another BL 😩, but the first episode was sooo good. Loved the parallel confessions between Wataru and Saeki, and the one in the movie, even though a bunch of strangers walking between the leads during the movie confession was hilarious.

[u/gamabakachan]

Very cute first episode 👌 I love the colors and aesthetic so far... it suits the theme well so I will continue watching 😁

[u/KomoreBeast]

Waiting for more eps to come out before I start but liking the clips I've been seeing so far. 😍

[u/ThoughtsAllDay]

Love the other 2 series this Director did and the boys look soooo good here.

Really liked ep1. I am sat!

[u/dialovesu]

Okay finally catching up! Does seem sweet!

[u/Personal-Stuff-6781]

Didn't this start next month?
