See, I really wish that I could believe this, but I just can’t. ;_; It’s really a shame, too. After this person went through the effort of adding an emote face “:3”. See, that’s what almost threw me off guard. GOOD ONE, ANON, BUT I’M NOT FALLING FOR IT. D< 

I do really want to believe this, though. xDDDD  FOREVERALONE.JPG

That it’s been so long since I’ve posted anything. I really feel like I’ve let you guys down. I promise I will try posting more, it’s just that I’ve been working so much. >< I hope you all have’t forgotten about me! 

LOOK AT HOW MANY FANS THEY HAVE ALREADY. JUST IMAGINE.

ALRIGHT. ALRIGHT. WHERE DO I START. This is the fourth installment, much anticipated addition to the Takumi series. I have had this movie downloaded for quite sometime, but just have been procrastinating my time to watch it. Now, without further adieu, I present you my “review,” of sorts, on this spectacular movie.

I AM IN LOVELOVELOVE WITH THIS MOVIE. Alright, first and foremost, let me just say that I love how this series stays consistent throughout the characters. I love seeing the old faces moreso than I do the new ones, honestly, but that should go without saying, no? When I saw Akaike, I nearly spazzed myself into oblivion. If any of you remember my previous covers of this series, you will remember that I am in eternal love with Akaike. I mean.. we just.. OHMYMAKER. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. Ahem. *fixes tie* Now that I have regained my composure, we shall continue. I really, really, and I cannot stress this enough, enjoyed this movie. It was so refreshing in so many ways that I cannot even begin to express. It was a nice change of pace, if you will, for the Takumi addition. The characters. The characters. The characters. They are just beyond amazing and well portrayed, if you ask me. Far better than any Japanese film that I have seen in the past, which has amplified with each movie this wonderful succession has bestowed upon us. I love how, despite being centered around a “new couple,” this movie was still indirectly placed much of the strain and movie progression upon Takumi and Gii. Despite my poor Akaike not receiving as much screen-time as I would have liked (but, then again, when does he ever) I still fanboy spazzed. I am not kidding, either. Nevertheless, back on topic. I much enjoyed how Gii was still the intelligible, reliable, philosophical one that everyone swooned over (what’s that I said about remaining consistent?) in this one, as well. I honestly felt like I was watching a live film adaptation of Junjou Romantica: with the amount of pairings that they introduced in this installment. However, as I said before, I liked it. Call me a masochist, but I quite liked how Misu referred to Shingyouji as his “possession” and his “property” repeatedly. Even going as far as to call him his “pet.” Maybe it’s just me, but I liked it. Even at the end, they didn’t give us fans what we were dying for throughout the entire movie —  just when I thought they were going to, they snatched it away — when Misu said something along the lines of “I’m going to say this just once, so listen up..” I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO SAY “I LOVE YOU,” LIKE ANYONE ELSE IN THIS PREDICAMENT WOULD HAVE DONE.

Guess again.

He did not, but that’s okay, because it would have been out of character, in a sense. I know I’ve said this many times, but let me say it again, I loved the reappearance of previous faces, such as: Gii, Takumi (respectively, of course), and Akaike. Also how it provided a fore-story, or background sketch, of a more in-depth version of Misu and Shingyouji, which we were introduced to in the previous movie. Gii really played a large role in this movie, if you ask me. He was the catalyst for one, if not both, of the couples. While Takumi was his same, positive self. HOT DAMN I LOVE THESE CHARACTERS. DEAR MAKER. SHUT ME UP, BUT I CANNOT SAY IT ENOUGH. I felt horrible for Sagara at the conclusion of this movie, but I always feel bad for -someone- in every romance themed movie I watch, so that was to be expected. 

Needless to say, I was spazzing uncontrollably during this ENTIRE film, and I am not even kidding. I even paused the movie countless times to glance around my room, to make sure my cousin wasn’t awake and that my mother didn’t walk in, because I was grinning like a fool at how freaking cute this was. I nearly died of the overload. As you can tell, I could ramble on about the amazingness that is this movie for hours and hours, but, if you’ll excuse me, I am going to dance around my house because I cannot contain myself any longer.

“Hey, even though my boyfriend just raped you, let me help you feel better by also having sex with you.”

That’s all I have to say that about that movie. Literally. That is all. 

Wow. This was.. actually a pretty good movie. Again, it was nice seeing the actual relationship form without just being thrusted into the middle of the tension. I thought that the split-personalities was a really nice and unique trait, even though I saw it coming, but that’s just because I’m psychic. I really liked it. I really like Japanese films in general. I enjoy the over exaggerated facial expressions and dialogue. The kiss scene (the one and only) was really awkward, which had me smiling throughout it. Er. Yeah. Once again, not much to say about this one. I liked it. 

Alright, I’m not done watching this movie yet so I’m just going to update this little review thing as I watch it. When Eric started making out with the old guy, I actually put my hand up to cover my media player and said “EW. NONONONONONONONO. WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? NONONO. D: EW. NO.” SERIOUSLY. WHAT IS THIS? NO. ;~; ERIC. YOU CAN DO SO MUCH BETTER. I AM DISAPPOINTED. THOROUGHLY, THOROUGHLY DISAPPOINTED IN YOU.

ps: Eric’s English is adoraaablllle.

..A SECOND SEX SCENE WITH THE OLD DUDE? ARE YOU SERIOUS? *raging*

..Eric’s high school boyfriend is really beginning to annoy me. Can you say idiot? I sure can. 

….I’m sorry to begin all of these with dots, BUT ARE YOU SERIOUS MR. ERIC’S FATHER? YOU’RE SERIOUS RIGHT NOW? Alright, you know what. Now I see where Eric gets it from. 

I really should stop, but in addition: if that’s what a gay club looks like, I never want to go to one. Eric’s high school boy toy, please stop singing. You’re bad at it and the guitar audio they added is not helping your case, at all. ..AW, ERIC. I’M SO SORRY. T.T HE’S A JERK.

Alrightso. I’m a little upset. Homeboy has gotten more tail during his first week (in a foreign country, I might add) than I have my whole life. I live a sad, sad life. 

Okay, finally. I am finished watching the movie. I’m sorry for posting.. like this. I promise this will be my first and last time formatting a review like this. Let me just say WHAT. THE. BLEEP. WAS THAT? WHAT DID I JUST WATCH? That ending was horrible. Even if the movie had any hopes of receiving kudos from me, that ending just sent them all washing away down the drain. That was just absolutely craptastic. That’s all I have to say about this one, ladies and gentlemen. My final verdict is it was terribad. So bad I had to combine two adjectives to describe just how bad it was. However, if you wish to know my opinion on the movie before the ending, it was decent, BUT OH MY MAKER. THAT ENDING. ERIC, YOU ARE SELFIIIIISH. I just.. I can’t believe what I just watched. o_o 

*deep sigh* Wow.. I just.. I really am at a loss for words right now. If my parents weren’t home right now, I’d be crying my little eyes out. This movie is definitely being added to my list of favourite movies. That was breathtakingly beautiful in so many ways that I cannot describe. I really, really want to cry right now and I am trying unbearably hard not to. ;_; I even watched through all the credits just to see if they had a little blurb about what happened to the boys, but unfortunately, nothing. It was just so.. DEAR MAKER. I really wish I could form a coherent sentence right now, but just believe me when I say it was beautiful. Ethan was such a complex and well performed character and Remigio was just the topping on the cake. What really had me fall in love instantly was in the beginning of the movie when I heard Ethan’s voice. Even though I had to wait until the end of the movie for a kiss, it was worth it. That entire movie was worth it. I can’t believe that I haven’t heard of/seen this movie sooner. seklmfslemfkls. I can talk ALL DAY about how much I genuinely, genuinely, am in love with this movie. Remigio’s love for Ethan and his blatantly oblivious nature was just so realistic and reeled me in more and more as the movie progressed. The way that him and his family began bonding, despite the situation they were positioned in, was amazing and had me smiling uncontrollably. It was like they were a real family and they finally accepted Ethan. All of the characters were just SO amazing and the actors really made it all that much better. Despite the ending, I am still thoroughly satisfied with this movie which is more than I can say about a lot of others. I really just wish they would have added something at the end that informed the viewers of what happened, but I understand why that didn’t occur. Screen writers prefer leaving an open ending that is free for interpretation and, in this case, they did a FLAWLESS job at it. Normally, I hate film conclusions that don’t actually possess a clear ending, but they did such a good job in this that I really cannot complain. 

See? Didn’t I tell you I could ramble on and on about this movie? I’m glad I have it downloaded because I will be re-watching it in the future. This and Love of Siam have become my favourites when it comes to gay Asian films. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I am going to do some stalking on Ethan Mao’s actor whom, after watching the credits, is named Jun Hee Lee. 

Wow. My mind. It is blown at this film. For once, it was nice, being able to witness a relationship blossom — like it did in this movie. And I don’t mean one of a relationship, but a friendship, as well. It was truly marvelous, this movie. It was really wonderful. Yet another film that just barely touches on same-sex romance, but there is so much more to take from this movie than just simply that. I really, really enjoyed this. It was a very touching film, while maintaining its realism without fluff. I could ramble on and on about, specifically, why I appreciate this film, but I’ll save both myself and whomever is reading this (which, I’ll assume is none of you). Nice if you want a movie that encompasses more than just a gay theme. 

OH. I just have one thing to add. Ron bared a striking resemblance to Rain (the Korean singer/actor), don’t you think?

Why was this movie recommended to me? It may have had some strong (and I do mean strong) homosexual undertones, but it surely was not Boys Lovu. All in all, I enjoyed this movie. It showed another side to Singapore and the “nitty-gritty” of teenage life and interaction from a realistic perspective. Nothing was glittered or sugar coated, they really gave you the streets. Warning for those who may be squeamish: this film is a bit graphic. There were some parts where I had to mute it or look away from the screen. However, again, not really a “Boys Love” geared film. It was more of a form of documentary than anything else. I am going to have to complain about this to the suggester. The ending was.. sweet and there was a scene I fangirled over. Okay, I’m going to stop here because there’s really not much else to say about this movie. I shouldn’t even be reviewing it. 

Alright, first let me start off by saying: the subbers of where I watched this movie at FAILED. With that being said, lets continue with this “review,” of sorts.

For once. FOR. ONCE. I thought that I wasn’t going to have anything to rant about and, for the most part, I don’t. I thought that this was, believe it or not, a very accurate depiction of homosexual youth struggling to find themselves and their identities. A realistic one, at that. Which you normally don’t find in Asian films centered around a same-sex couple. I really, really enjoyed it. Even though the subbers of my video decided, for whatever reason, to leave a lot of information out — - I still enjoyed it, nonetheless. However, I cannot blame them because that English (or should I say Engrish) was not that great, either, but I am accustomed to a language barrier so it was not much of a problem for me. Now, compliments aside, WHAT THE HECK WAS UP WITH THAT ENDING? ARE YOU SERIOUS? THE LESBIANS GOT THE SHORT END OF THE STICK? ALRIGHT, OBVIOUSLY, I AM BIAS BECAUSE I WANT MY BOYS TO HAVE A HAPPY ENDING (just once. Is that too much to ask?), BUT EVEN SO, THAT DOESN’T MEAN THE LESBIANS SHOULD BE SHAFTED OUT OF THEIR HAPPILY-EVER-AFTER. THAT WAS JUST SOME BULLPOOPY. I am thoroughly disappointed at that, but it was realistic and understandable. Being that the poor girl’s mother was ill and in the process of recovering, BUT EVEN SO. I AM STILL A LITTLE HURT OVER THIS. I was shipping and was an advocate of BOTH parties. I didn’t want my girls to be separated. T_T Aigo, it was horrible, but, again, let me say how much I liked this movie. Very, very, realistic and accurate. Furthermore, let me just add the girls in this were gorgeous. Oh dear Maker they were so freaking pretty.

Alright, as I said, not much to say about this one. I was just desperately in need of another gay Asian film and stumbled upon this one. I really, really recommend this one (if you can endure the presumably horrible subtitles you will encounter). It was beautiful and actually showed the obstacles non-heterosexual youths face from a sensible point-of-view. 

Okay.. just finished It Seems To Rain, as the title implies and I just want to say WHAT. THE. EFF. Seriously. That movie just seemed to skip SO many potentially crucial moments and the ending was very.. very..

Okay, all in all, I don’t want to call this movie stupid, but that’s my final verdict. o_o I really feel like it could have been great, for what it’s worth, and the symbolization was magnificent. I really liked it from the moment I read the synopsis and thought it sounded really good (and it could have been really good), but this really fell short for me. I understand directors do this purposely in an attempt to leave ‘unanswered questions,’ but this movie just left me with a “WHAT. THE. EFF” type of feeling. Maybe if it wasn’t so short, I would have enjoyed it more, but really. Even I could have done much better. Also, they should have explored the romance a little more. With both candidates, male and female. I mean.. this entire movie seemed like a trailer, honestly. Just not satisfied with this. D< I enjoyed it, but still.

Anonymous asked: just a suggestion: if you have links to the movies, you should probably add those to your reviews :)

Thank you for the suggestion, but, I don’t expect much attention on this Tumblr and if I do gain popularity, normally people won’t hesitate to ask questions. I torrent or download every movie that I’ve done a review on. I don’t stream. However, if there’s a certain movie you wish to know of, then feel free to send me a message! :3

ranesex asked: This blog was an amazing idea!! I have so much to watch now!!

D’aw, thank you! I’m really glad that SOMEONE appreciated it. When I first made this blog and saw that you had followed me, there was a huge smile on my face. I was so happy when I saw your name. I meant to send you a message, but had family issues and wound up forgetting, but thank you soso very much!
