BL Best of 2022 - quick picks
Best KBL: Semantic Error
Tumblr media
Best Thai BL: Bad Buddy (remember for me this falls into 2022) 
Tumblr media
Best JBL: this was the hardest pick for me because Japan came back SWINGING this year. So... I cheated. 
Tumblr media
Best traditional live action yaoi? Minato’s Laundromat 
Best modern BL? Takara & Amagi 
Best for me, personally? Old Fashion Cupcake 
Best Taiwan BL: My Tooth Your Love although I really adored DNA Says Love You and About Youth, the one fudged the beginning and the other the end (both are still v HEA) so My Tooth was the most consistent. 
Tumblr media
Best director: Kato Ayaka (Old Fashion Cupcake) she did a fucking phenomenal job, and yes she had two killer actors to work with, but I am such a sucker for those long shots plus the sensual foods close ups? GIIRLLLLLLLL. Gah! 
Tumblr media
Best kiss: honestly we had so many good kisses this year I have multiple blog posts going on the subject. But I am handing it over to the one that stuck in my head the most, Billy & Seng’s up against that chain gate with the damn blue towel sticking out of his back pocket in Secret Crush On You. 
Tumblr media
The desperation was just insane. But I might have given it to OFC if they hadn’t already won the director category. And I flipping LOVE the Kissable Lips boys BTS smiley kiss from 304: 100% should have been on screen for us.
Best erotic moment: The shower neck make out kiss from side couple RainPayu in Oh! My Sunshine night. 
Tumblr media
Runner up: VegasPete and the “ass to waist ratio” kiss in their kinky chain scene. 
Best O scene: Oh the whole LITA special, they knew what they were doing. Doesn’t stop me being annoyed by the whole thing, tho. 
Best cuddles: I mean it should got to 12% because, well, ENDLESSLY spectacular cuddles from SantaEarth but for me it was Star in My Mind’s cuddle+glare. I love me a vicious little “mine” moment. 
Tumblr media
Best eye contact/soulmating/eyefucking: FirstKhao in The Eclipse although Japan did great work with THIRST this year (bit more one sided, that one). 
Tumblr media
Best cinematography: Cherry Blossoms After Winter, I know, I know, but you know how I feel about yaoi, nostalgia and cinematic storytelling. 
Best boohoo snot bubble I’m dazed and crying: Eternal Yesterday, every fucking episode, Choco Milk Shake (I hate you Strongberry, I love you Strongberry), To My Star 2 (I just hate you and you are not forgiven). 
Most beloved character: Shin MY PRECIOUS BEAN SPROUT 
Tumblr media
Best Pair: The Parks although I am also crazy about the To My Star and Kissable Lips boys. I really want more from all of them. Madness that it’s all Korea. 
Tumblr media
Best Ensemble: The Eclipse had a killer cast but I expect that from GMMTV. So for all it was a mess of a story Cutie Pie wins best casting from me. All 3 couples had such good chemistry. I don’t think any other multi-couple shows out of Thailand were that on point, not even KP. 
Tumblr media
Best siblings//family: My Ride, gotta hand it to the gay uncles and all the queer friends and the adopted son. Although DNA Says Love You was pretty darn great too. 
Tumblr media
Best Food: There were so many food ones this year (Ocean Likes Me, Old Fashion Cupcake, La Cuisine, but none were as good food-wise as Bite Me last year) so the one where I actually wanted to eat stuff the most? What Zabb Man. What can I say? I love sweets and ramen, but Thai food is my last best hope in life. 
Tumblr media
Best song: Eternal Yesterday’s OST Sunshower by Ayumu Imazu. I can’t believe Japan beat out Korea but I am sorry I just really fucking adore that song. I’m sucker for that raw slightly rough voice combined with Japan’s brusque style (and PINK hair). 
youtube
But Leo’s I still from Happy Ending Romance is a close fucking follow up, that boy is dripping slightly-evil honey even in falsetto, he’s a perennially ignored goddamn gift to Kpop. 
I do A LOT of best of lists, this is just the beginning. Also if you have a request of a top 10 of 2022 or any best of... name the tope lists, let me know in an RP or a comment.

For the first time in a LONG TIME, I am starting a Japanese BL from the jump: Living With Him is directed (Kato Ayaka) AND written (Miyamoto Takeshi) by veterans of ONE OF THE GREATEST JBLs OF ALL TIME, Old Fashion Cupcake, so: this is a must-watch for me. (I did not watch Kato's last show, My Personal Weatherman/Taikan Yoho, and I do need to catch up on it.)
The first ep was fine! Natsukawa needs to catch the hint ball that Tanaka is throwing. Literally and figuratively. Tanaka's being...obvious. There will be baseball metaphors and I will be here for it. Really loving the set-up of Natsukawa being a big bro to two boy-crazy little sisters. I think (I HOPE) this show's gonna be cute.
Fingers crossed, lezzgo!

This is a report on the handshake event at CATS, where Shiki Theater Company will be performing, in Nagoya on October 1, 2023.
On this day, I was given a fist bump by Munkustrap, played by Susumu Kato, and Jellylorum, played by Ayaka Yoshida.
Munkustrap was running around shaking hands with as many audience members as possible before it was time to return to the stage for the last time.
Munkustrap's hands were very fluffy.
Jellylorum was a very cute cat when I saw it up close. She was a very impressive cat, with a strong heart and a gentleness within her.
