shen qingqiu from svsss 🤝 protagonist from 'a man who defies the world of BL' with...
- realizing you're in a (sorta crappy) book/specific genre
- doing thorough research about the world and actively avoiding as many stupid plot points as you can
- running away from problems and constantly lying to save you and your poor ass from raging homosexuals
- low-key being the only "sane", "normal", and "straight" one there
- just trying to live life peacefully as an unimportant character to hopefully be forgotten about
- somehow, someway, despite all of your efforts, have a mentally ill queer teenager fall utterly and hopelessly in love with you. just because you helped 'em once by giving them a small amount of basic human decency and *insert lonely backstory and an older man thing*

I was just watching the last episode of Absolute BL 2
It really is such a genius show.
I mean in the last season we saw the Japanese bl 'last episode run to confess'
This time we got 'a misunderstanding due an ex', 'going abroad' and finally the 'rain'.
I was so hoping for a 'airport confession after driving in rain'
I thought I had to settle for the 'last episode run to confess' again
But of course this show has to do every trope earth. I got my 'airport confession'
It would not be Absolute BL if you are not literally tripping on an a trope every 2 minutes.
There are the obvious tropes that the episodes are named after but there are also the subtle romance tropes that we take for granted and dismiss.
This show just makes you look at all machinery behind the scenes by treating the narrative like a semi transparent film.
Also this gave me two of my most favorite lines in all of history
Returning to my campus life, where B's will L.
Even in this world set on being a BL, a B like me won't L.
I just love this show so much!
It is a true work of genius, I don't care what others say, parody is the true soul of narrative. It has to understand EVERYTHING so perfectly in order to call it out.
Here's my favorites:

So flipping good.
Here's me losing my tiny mind back in the day:

These two nameless characters literally had one (1) minute of screen time in 2021 and yet...I still think about them.

I did this by adding Tsunda to the universe of "A man who defies the world of BL". Such fun.

I've got a small update on Sekoguchi Ryo's part in Zettai BL 3. He posted this photo on IG with a caption confirming that he's playing the role that manga readers all figured he'd be playing, based on how he looks in the promo material.
I'm going to mention some spoilers below. The next paragraph has spoilers about the premise of his character/story and the one after that has spoilers about one aspect of the manga ending.
Character name, premise, etc. spoilers: Sekoguchi confirms in his IG caption that he'll be playing Hatano.* Hatano goes to high school with Ayato, Mob's brother. Apparently Hatano confesses to Mob (I'm not sure if he falls for him during his storyline or shows up already having feelings for him). And he seems to be a pretty significant character, so it's not like he just confesses and peaces out or something.
Manga ending/likely season ending spoilers: This is hardly super surprising given their age gap** and Hatano's being a minor, but in the manga nothing comes of Hatano's feelings for Mob. Sekoguchi's IG caption includes the phrase "途な恋心" (romanized as "tona koigokoro" per google) which IG translates as "pure love" but google translates as "hopeless love." This seems to confirm that series Hatano is going to end up disappointed, like manga Hatano.
Speaking of manga Hatano, here he is.
Tumblr media
So, what does all this mean for us Sekoguchi appreciators? There's good news and bad news. The good news is that this sounds like a juicy part that Sekoguchi would be wonderful in. The bad news is that it's not looking likely that we'll get to see Sekoguchi kiss a boy in this role, or anyone else for that matter. But, you know, hope springs eternal, so maybe some other time.
* Sekoguchi writes the name in kanji as 旗野. IG translates this as Asano, but google translate says Hatano. As y'all probably know, the same combination of kanji can often stand for multiple names with disparate pronunciations, just as the same name can often be spelled using more than one combination of kanji. I'm going with Hatano here, though, since Hatano is a manga character who resembles Sekoguchi in the promo photos.
** I find it so funny that Sekoguchi Ryo and Inukai Atsuhiro are going to be playing these roles with this problematic age gap involving a college student and a high school kid but in reality Sekoguchi is 27 and Inukai is 29.
Thanks to @come-back-serotonin for filling me in on Hatano's role in the manga! All information mentioned here that isn't from Sekoguchi's IG caption is from them.

Heya, I’ve lurked on your blog for a while (not signed in lol). Love everything and I adore the insights into linguistics, I have a lot of linguistic nerd friends who I fear are becoming Tired of me asking questions and this is a great resource so I can ask deeper questions.
Anywho, I’m trying to compile a list of scenes or lines where the characters themselves speak on BL, like the international impact, the effects on LGBTQ+, anything. I know Cutie Pie did it in that boardroom scene where Lian says something relating to BL, in Step by Step someone says BL couples profit off the identity of LGBT+.
All this to say, I’m wondering if you have any favorite lines or scenes that get meta and talk about BL!
A list of scenes or lines where the characters themselves speak on BL
Gottcha, here are my favorites from last year:
I call this BL getting meta or self referential. I tracked it as a trend in 2021 my #1 pick & 2022 my # 2 pick, so that's the place I would mention those shows that do this. Also there are some more screen caps of my favorites.
Most of my personal favorites would come from Absolute BL 1 & 2. There is a reason I named my blog after that show.
We had full on meta shows too, wither that had a BL within a BL or BL actors or were all about BL like Call it What You Want, Lovely Writer, etc...
I will also call your attention to GMMTV's 55:15 Never Too Late, it has a gay sub-plot that also deals with BL directly, you might find it interesting.
I'm not really tracking it this year except when someone drops one in a series I like and I screen cap. It's become so common now!
But I do have a collection of images i keep of my favorites that I reuse here in my blog regularly, here they are:

First kisses preceeded by hugs
criteria:
first kiss as a whole (if the first kiss we see isn't the couple's first, it doesn't count)
first kiss is defined the first time their lips touched
hug happens shortly before the kiss (even if there are words and other gestures exchanged in between)
not a dream or fantasy sequence but flashbacks are okay
pulling in for a kiss doesn't count as a hug (A Tale of Thousand Stars, UWMA)
spoilers for the following shows (images and timestamps):
Our Dining Table
Stay by My Side
Minato Shouji Coin Laundry
A Man Who Defies the World of BL
Laws of Attraction
A First Love Story
Long Time No See
Be Loved in House: I Do
My School President
Vice Versa
Manner of Death
Takara-kun to Amagi-kun
❗ please keep in mind the timestamps i've put in are closer to the beginning of the scene than the actual moment of the hug, just for additional context :)
Minoru and Yutaka (Our Dining Table)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
a hug that brings a sigh of relief from episode 9, 11:20
Bu Xia and Jiang Chi (Stay by My Side)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jiang Chi's natural response to feeling needed and loved from episode 5, 09:50
Asuka and Shuu (Minato's Coin Laundry s2)
Tumblr media
long awaited moment from episode 11, 07:50
Tojo and Ayato (A Man Who Defies the World of BL)
Tumblr media
Mob's nightmare coming true in episode 3, 11:05
Charn and Tinn (Laws of Attraction)
Tumblr media
a reassuring backhug filled with meaning from episode 6, 40:25
Jaesung and Mingyu (A First Love Story)
Tumblr media
butterfly-inducing moment from episode 1, 03:37
Chisoo and Gitae (Long Time No See)
Tumblr media
a play wrestle that led to a first kiss and a lot more from episode 2, 06:00
Some honorary mentions! (which don't abide by the rules but i was excited to share)
Zhao Gang and Si Qi (Be Loved in House: I Do) - a sort-of backhug situation (episode 7, 09:21)
Tumblr media
Sound and Win (My School President) - it's more than pulling in with both of them embracing the other but less than a full hug (episode 12, 54:15)
Tumblr media
Puen and Talay (Vice Versa) - Talay is more or less hanging off of Puen lol (episode 2, 27:07)
Tumblr media
Tan and Bun (Manner of Death) - another drunk kiss with questionable form of physical contact (episode 1, 17:20)
Tumblr media
Takara and Amagi (Takara-kun to Amagi-kun) - not their first kiss but their first fully consensual one (i learned too late and was excited to add it so i'm keeping it <3) (episode 6, 18:37)
Tumblr media
((also mentioning the almost kiss in Gaya sa Pelikula and the ChopperBen hug in Never Let Me Go that I would imagine would be followed by a kiss in a different scenario))
surely there are quite a few instances of this trope missing so i would appreciate additions! <3
