This week, I had to make some hard decisions. There are so many fun things airing on Fridays and Saturdays, but I’ve vowed that until my novel is done, I can only watch two series per day. Hard decisions were made. I am putting Goddess Bless You From Death and Interminable Thailand briefly on hold while That Summer and The Wicked Game finish. I decided not to watch the three toxic series that began on Saturday. They included: To My Shore, Tide of Love, and Gu Jin Nan Qiu.

Honestly, I’m almost done with my novel. I only have maybe five more chapters to write. I’m hoping to get to share it with everyone soon.

On another note, two previews dropped this week that had me excited. The first one is a BL movie that’s going to be on Netflix in December. 10 Dance looks amazing. I love any show that involves the world of dance, and combining it with an MM romance storyline is the icing on a delicious cake.

Also, MFLow Entertainment dropped the pilot for their Omegaverse series Knot, and honestly, it looks intriguing with an interesting plot and strong characterization. I was impressed.

Anyway, on to the week in review.

School Trip Joined a Group I’m Not Close to Episode 4 (Japanese BL on Gagaoolala)

Getting Closer

1. Hioki stayed in Watarai’s arms, and I thought I was fine. Then they replayed it from his view…

2. This F4 is the sweetest group.

3. I can’t believe Watarai has already worked up the courage to confess.

Chosen Home Episode 4 (Japanese Queer drama on Netflix)

Home sweet home

1. Hotaru’s father is scum. Also, did I read the room right? I don’t think her mother is coming back either.

2. I love how Hatano said that he’d failed at many things, so all he could do was what he’s able to do every day, and that could be enough.

Head 2 Head Episode 3 (Thai BL on YouTube)

Is it love?

1. Van and Farm kicked it up a notch this episode. I had no idea Van could be so flirty.

2. I can understand why J went looking for the diary. Still, he could have left it shut.

3. Sea and Keen showed off their acting chops in that final scene. 🔥

The Love Never Sets Episode 5 (Thai BL on IQIYI)

Uncomfortable

1. Warm is a slimy player and a song-thief. Ice should listen to his instincts more.

At 25:00 in Akasaka S2 Episode 7 (Japanese BL on Gagaoolala)

Cutthroat

1. I can see why Shirasaki is so shaken. If I were asked to step down from a role for several rehearsals, I’d freak out.

2. Hayama is an amazing partner.

3. Kuroki was an amazing help, but I can already see how Hayama might end up jealous.

The Cursed Love Episode 6 (Thai BL on YouTube)

Plot Twist

1. Aisoon is a money-grubbing creeper.

2. Siwat, in bed, with red eyes… 🔥👀😳 I’m surprised he didn’t light anything on fire.

4. I never even considered Thara’s mom…

First thoughts

1. I think Therapy Game is adorable. It’s officially Thursday’s 2nd show.

2. Episode 3 was so fun. I liked the amusement park setting.

3. I like the angry kitten vibe of Minato, and Shizuma is so open and honest.

Punk’s Triangle Episode 6 (Japanese BL on Gagaoolala)

Episode 6

1. It was interesting that AE referred to Enaga as different from himself. It is like they’re different people.

2. Chiaki asking for a piercing was very unexpected… 😳🔥

3. I wonder if Enaga will start walking like Chiaki. 👀

Summer feelings

Me and Thee Episode 1 ✴️PREMIERE (Thai BL on YouTube and IQIYI)

🤣

1. Thee’s period lakorn way of speaking is hilarious.

4. Ran is a beautiful model. His pseudo-boyfriend is an .

5. I just about rolled off the couch when Thee got down on one knee. 🤣🤦‍♀️

I loved Me and Thee. If you are looking for pure comedic gold, then definitely try it out. For once, I don’t have any new series on the list that are premiering this week. It’s an odd feeling, but it might be nice to have a bit of a break from the tide.

In the meantime, there are plenty of shows to watch. I’m preparing for my December end-of-year social media event. I will be doing my top 31 favorite series of 2025, and a question a day for everyone to enjoy and participate in. Keep on my social media starting December 1. Let me tell you, figuring out the ranking of my favorite 31 series this year is really challenging. There have been some great shows.

Until next time, everyone, happy watching.
