The Dawn of a New Era- With “Sparks Camp” Director Theodore Boborol
Reality television seems to be the recent trend, with countries like South Korea, Japan and Philippines jumping into the foray. While dating shows have been omnipresent for quite sometime; queer representation was almost nonexistent. Stemming past the rampant negligence & abundant homophobia, dating shows are now more daring in their portrayal of homosexuality. But does a dating show only revolve around the emotional sojourn of the contestants?
Join us as we answer this question in our intriguing exchange with “Sparks Camp” Director Theodore Boborol. The show is gaining popularity across the globe and the impact is truly commendable!

“We Are” Series Review (Ep.5 to 16)
“We Are” is a medley of romantic tropes and sappiness that is very welcome in the BL scene. It is the quintessential romcom, an easygoing series about a group of friends who find love and support each other throughout the process. “We Are” is refreshing and fun and even though it doesn’t give you any drama, the romance and friendship are enough to drive this 16-episode series, and the different couples give us a wide range of romantic tropes, there is no screen time wasted because all the stories develop at different paces, keeping us engaged from start to finish. As a big fan of slice of life shows with minimum conflict, “We are” was such a treat, and I hope there is more demand for such low stakes BLs in the midst of all the high drama, high production and educational ones.

Fall Under the Spell of Cherry Magic
There’s something magical about Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! (30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni Nareru Rashii, 30歳まで童貞だと魔法使いになれるらしい). I first fell in love with the live-action series starring Eiji Akaso and Keita Machida as the adorable Adachi and handsome Kurosawa when it was first released for international viewing on the streaming platform Crunchyroll (though you can order the Blu-ray wherever Japanese music and movies are sold, including CDJAPAN). It was such an adorable and innocently sweet story that I couldn’t help but fall in love with it.
