You did a post earlier about BL actors you would love to see together in a BL, but I would love to see actresses you would love to see do a GL together!
Ooooo, what a GREAT question.
Actresses I'd Love To See Do GL!
Jan Ployshompoo (SOTUS, Cupid’s Last Wish) + Mild Lapassalan (3 Will Be Free, Dark Blue Kiss)
Why? They are both super charismatic and likable, they could do a great take on a Bad Buddy style premise. Enemies to lovers kind of thing.
Gigie Chanunphat (2gether) + Jamie Juthapich (Baker Boys, Kiss Me Again)
These two are very different in terms of style and screen appeal, I could see them doing something cutthroat and edgy set in the fashion or tech industry.
Tanshi Bumrungkit (Together with Me) + Momo Pawarisa (La Cuisine)
What, it’s me? Of course I’m picking an age gap. And you know I want it to be older sister’s best friend trope. I’m thinking lots of pining and child hood crush etc... Ooo, could we push into teacher’s pet territory? Eh, too kinky, better leave that to Japan.
Fah Wisansaya (Love Area) + Pray Praeploy (Why R U?)
This is my hacker/programmer or gammer girl pick. I’m thinking a lesbian Falling Into You Smile. The older girl broke ground as the first female pro-gamer, the younger girl is the new upstart with stars in her eyes. It writes itself.
I would also like to see these already established pairs get full shows:
Bad Buddy
Seven Project
From Taiwan?
Aviis Zhong & Tannie Huang (DNA Says Love You)
Aviis has done a kinda GL before, but I wasn’t wild about it. These two are KILLER performers and it’s Taiwan, so make it high heat and hella messy, (so long as its HEA). How about Trapped the GL version? SCI Mysteries only lesbians? MoD the lady’s stop a murderer?
From Japan?
Noriko Iriyama & Matsui Airi
I love the idea of a tsundere older character and cheerful sunshine puppy pursuer. Something in the To My Star vein, only with Japan’s kinky touch? Let’s go with that.
From Korea?
Jeon Mi Do & Seo Hyun Jin
This should be a straight up (pun intended) office set Kdrama, all the tropes, just they v gay. That’s it, that’s all I want. They’re both mature, career women, established dating history, one of them can know she likes girls, the other one can find it out as they go along. Make it hurt so good. Lots of mess and pining. Stupid separation in the final ep. Classic Kdrama, it’s just they're lesbians, Korea.

Last week was utter hell, with a new class, a new schedule, and my sleep going out of whack. I'm still trying to readjust, and let me explain why I'm mentioning all of this. Almost nothing would have motivated me to get out of my zone and type this post except for Frieren. Frieren is one of my favorite manga series. If you've talked to me about anime/manga before, you would know this. So, ever since it was announced, it has been one of my most anticipated series. To add to that, Keiichirou Saitou was announced as the director. He's a great example of an upcoming new-gen director who has excelled in everything he's been a part of. From the beautiful and abstract EDs he created for The Executioner and Her Way of Life or Boogiepop, to the mesmerizing, dreamlike episodes he directed for Sonny Boy, and the expressive, now very popular Bocchi the Rock. He was a perfect choice as a director for a series like this, and let me tell you, he delivered fully.
Just from a quick glance, you can see how the show looks. Everything is eye-catching, making it almost hard to focus on one particular element because they all just look so good, and no, it's not just the chromatic aberration causing the lack of focus. The various departments responsible for compositing, the background, and the overall color design have done an outstanding job, creating a beautiful and cohesive piece of art. Seeing someone you might consider a less experienced director pulling off such a complete and harmonious experience is incredible. In terms of design, the whole show is aesthetically pleasing. It's not the experimental work you saw in Sonny Boy; it's going in a totally different direction, like a beautiful painting that should be framed on a wall.
It works very well when paired with, you know, how Frieren is as a story. The fantasy world they are in isn't an extremely unique one. You've seen it before; it's fairly typical in that sense. But that's not truly the point. The main focus is showing the day-to-day or year-to-year life of this immortal elf girl, Frieren, and how she views time, how she remembers her past. It's not an incredibly grand adventure, but with the small lens we have on these characters, it feels like a cherished moment, something that should be captured in a photo or painting. It's beautiful in a very simple way. It's not a series made for extremely large moments, I think Frieren has always been focused on a simpler view of life, much like a painting. The smaller details of such a straightforward approach are highlighted so well. The trees in the environment, the squirrels just moving around—there's so much life in each scene. It really all comes together for me like a piece of art.
The consistency lasts through all four episodes, and the staff distribution also seems fairly good, so I expect this to continue throughout the two cours. The pacing itself is perfect. I've really enjoyed how the story has been adapted to animation so far. I believe that nowadays, many anime series have fallen into the pitfalls of adapting things too quickly to capture the interest of newer viewers early on. However, the series composition for Frieren here is excellent.
This writeup might have been shorter than most people were expecting considering how amazing the anime adaptation is and how much I love the source material, but what can really be said about except just praising? I feel like even if you don't like the source material, the anime's execution is almost undeniably good. Additionally, as I said this past week has not been kind to me so my energy is a bit drained, at first I was planning to be more specific in my write up and make points more adhering to the specifics of each episode, but I didn't really have time for that. However, I will do my best to cover every Frieren episode weekly from now on. Make no mistake this is going to be my favorite series from this year.
