This show is TOO MUCH

1. There's a lot of back plot that makes it hard to like the characters. After knowing the mom's history, I genuinely hate the mom's character. Like she's just terrible. I don't like watching stuff where I don't like the characters.
2. The show is too long, and a lot of the plot is highly unnecessary. 1.5 hrs and 16 episodes just killed me. I wanted to keep pushing through, but I just knew I could not.
3. The show had too much to say and needed to cut a lot of it out. Though I appreciate the activism in the show, there were too many points they wanted to make all on top of a fantasy plot about a teddy bear coming to life.
4. With Tofu being a teddy bear and all, he did not have to be as young as he was, and it kind of makes it weird. The age gap isn't unbearable when you look at Song's relationship, but because Tofu has that whole "you're my owner/master" it makes it weird. I'm not even one to be mad at age gaps, but that one wasn't necessary. Also, the fact that both of the couples are age gaps makes it weird.
There's more that I just won't get into too, but the show just has so many plot points and it's exhausting. It wasn't necessarily a bad show but when I don't like most of the characters and I feel overwhelmed by the plot, I just don't watch.

I need my 50 minutes back

This show is just a waste of time. There just wasn't anything substantial or special about the show. I wish I could have spent my 50 minutes watching other things. I kept waiting for the show to be good and for something exciting to happen, but unfortunately, that did not happen and the show was just boring and repetitive. The plot might seem good, and it was a good idea I admit, but it was executed poorly. You don't even get the satisfaction of a bl, because the "couple" is established at the very last second and you don't even see them get together. This is what I didn't like about the Man Who Defies The World of Bl. Would not recommend this

If you like this show, you are weird

Yeah it might not be biological incest but this is still incest. And it’s even worse cause the story starts out with him in middle school. He grew up with this guy basically as a father and brother figure and romanticizing this is just gross. Like I can’t see how you can watch him and the younger actor (who has to be less than 13) and start shipping them, even if he later becomes a different actor.
I think Taiwan really has to do better with some of the bls they put out. I feel like them more than any country are okay with putting out toxic/weird couples and stories in bls. Incest is not okay and this story is gross.
I came into it skeptical and then they showed they weren’t actually brothers and I allowed myself to relax cause it seems like there was some distance in the relationship, there isn’t. They call themselves family, AND HES A MIDDLE SCHOOLER! That was it for me, cause he’s growing up with this guy, like this guy practically adopted him since he was an elementary school kid. Like that’s weird. That’s like a grown man knowing a girl since she was 9 and dating her once she turns 18, that is absolutely disgusting.

"Where is the love"

I get why people would rank it high, the show and the characters and the actors were adorable and it was very cute however, in terms of romance the show failed at it.
Even though this show had kiss scenes and they are a bl couple, their relationship was dry and they still seemed like they had a bromance. There was some chemistry but it just wasn't romantic. Like the main character was good at showing he liked him, but when they got together, it was dry and they didn't actually seem like they liked each other anymore. I wish this show gave them better moments together that actually gave off the vibe that they really liked each other and wanted to be partners. It definitely didn't give the vibe that they only wanted to see each other. It was still a cute bl nevertheless. And I would recommend it, but it was disappointing.

For those who think this was good... what's wrong with you??

Honestly, this show was really bad. I don't know how I could sit through the entire thing. The characters seemed interesting but were really just boring. Every time I thought something good might happen or the characters would show ANYTHING, they did not. And the acting was kind of bad as well. Like I've seen the main lead in Kieta Hatsukoi and his acting was good, but here... I think perhaps it was because of the script and direction, not him. I don't know who wrote the script, but that needed improvement, it was so terrible. I would not recommend this show, it felt like a waste of time.

The end ruined the show

This show was pretty funny and I liked the plot and the characters, but the execution was kinda bad. The final relationship was weird and forced. The love interest came out of nowhere. Their love really should have started in like the second episode or at least introduced the interest, instead the show rushed everything to the last episode, making it seem out of character for the main. Even when he was confessing, it seemed he was unwillingly compelled to. The show spent too much time showing us how much he was against bl, it was unnecessary, though funny at points. Also, I felt like I would have liked it better if the love interest was a cuter, shorter guy or tall, masculine guy and naturally made his heart flutter. They looked bad together tbh.
Also if the main fell for the guy first instead of the other way around it would have been better, it took away from the romance and only made it seem like the main liked the interest because he liked him first. There was no chemistry between them, which sucks. The main had more chemistry with the guy he met at the karaoke bar. I wish that guy had come back :/ I wouldn't recommend the show, a bit of a waste of time. It was good up until the end though.

BFFR

Are you for real?! I started watching this show and I thought it was GREAT! I really did. Every episode made me happy and I genuinely shipped the couple, but here come the last 2 episodes.
THEY COMPLETELY RUINED THIS SHOW
Like I'm so upset because it was so good but they just completely messed it up and now I feel bad about ever starting the show, smh.
Like please don't even start this because you will get attached and then feel like you need to fight the story writer. I don't want to spoil so if you watch, good luck. And those who think this show is still good... be for real.

A PERFECT Japanese bl

This show was just so well done. It had the perfect length as well as progression/development between the couple. Not to mention the two leads had such strong chemistry. The scene where they’re rolling on the floor was sooo good it literally melted my heart! ALSOOOOO I was surprised but the communication between the two leads is really good. I HATE miscommunication but they communicate so well and just suit each other which I love.
It’s not a crazy exciting plot but more so a normal slice of life but it’s done so well.
I personally liked all of the characters as well.
and I’m just glad I found this show. Definitely one of my favorite Japanese bls. Highky recommend
