absolutely didn't just finish to see the most weird cartoon filled with gore and violence i ever knew a.k.a. Unicorn Wars.

Rambling AND SPOILERS under the cut.

THAT FILM IS AN ABSOLUTE TRAIN WRECK. THE ENDING SIMPLY KILLED ME-

Now seriously though I feel like it has one of a goddamn deep meaning behind it: there's Azulin who's all the bad things in the world (the fanatism, the jelousy, the betrayal, the violence etccc). Honestly I didn't see many good things in this character, but maybe I simply didn't pay enough attention. Then there is Gordi, who's all the good things in the world (the kindness, the morals, the forgiveness etccc). He's a saint but chubby. Also he's able to defend himself because being good doesn't mean being weak or naive. AND THEN MARIA COMES. That unicorn is the innocence of the world. SHE is the naive and defensless one. she's a child, that acts instincively (throwing herself in the creepy ruin at the beginning even if the bunny told her not to because of the voice of the mother, for example) that trusts the first person who looks kind (she trusted Gordi with little to no hesitation even if he was a bear) and is the first one to disappear in the ugly big blob. because innocence is the first one to die against the others when there is no concience. Gordi is the second one to get eaten by the blob thing, because "good" has morals and common sense, and may be less violent and persistent than "bad". Azulin gets absorbed or eaten or whatever last. even the "bad" dies in the end. and all those things together make the human being. humans are made of a bit of good, a bit of bad and, even if in smaller part or only for the first years of life, innocence.

Let's then take out Padre: he's the concience, that voice in your head that says "don't do that, it's dangerous" and that guides you. He gave Azulin something to reach when he was down, a goal. Azulin slowly made it become fanatism, but the starting point was something positive. the first time they didn't listen to Padre the bears got high and the two bear twins died. When Padre died, the main mess started, and Azulin lost the little morals he had (killing and eating another bear, burning the forest after he killed other bears as lieutenant, killing his own brother because either he was jelous that he was leaving him to help a unicorn, because he was helping an unicorn, or in a simple outburst of rage because he wanted to have the last unicorn for himself i guess).

I still don't get too much the "symbols" and meanings behind the unicorns, Maria's mother, the monkey cult and stuff (which is probably a main thing everyone understood but me :D) but I wanna understand it so I'll probably go around and read other posts from people or stuff from the authors of the film to see if I get something.

#unicorn wars #Viky rambles #i'm 100% sure i'm rambling either wrong and nonsensical stuff or obvious stuff #but who cares #it's just the little old me :3 #also yaya almost finished next chapter of Another story :DD #tw spoilers

Sooo disgusting how I've been reduced to only watching dramas that r on Netflix and Hulu. Maybe if they made a Viki app for tvs I wouldn't have this problem

#Viki has sooo much good stuff #but they also have no tv app and the streaming quality is shit

Wow, you subscribed mostly to all of the streaming sites. You managed to produce such amazing GIFs with screen-recording videos? I salute you! But yes, low quality videos are just such a turn off. No worries. Thank you for replying to me. :)

Not all at the same time. Only when there's stuff I want to watch (I make an exception for gagaoolala because they're an exclusively queer streaming platform and I want to support them).

But yeah, I have to own a fast pc for work and that really comes in handy for recording and editing. I just wish more series would come in resolutions bigger than compressed 1080p. Sometimes the lack of quality is really noticeable, especially with gmmtv shows.

#ask #also i cancelled my netflix sub earlier this year because meh #and the cost of that is basically the same as subbing to viki & gaga & iqiyi lmao #with the added bonus of actually having access to stuff that i want to watch

imagine. Skizz and the other new member are getting the introduction and welcome to the server, everyone is there, folks start getting materials and then a hand appears from underneath the ground and crawling up to the surface Oli Orionsound appears, he looks around searching for Joe and goes like "I finally found you!" and then sees how many people there are and is like "Oh, sorry am i interrupting something important" and he just manages to weasel his way onto the server and just doesnt leave and nobody knows what to do and jusr leave Joe to deal with him. Why was he underground on the hermitcraft server, how did he get there? he tries explaining it a few times, always bursting into singing halfway through and everybody listening just gets lost in his story and nods along to it extremely confused not understanding a single word. He and Skizz get along despite that and build a starter base together. its a dirt hut with cobblestone floor. its beautiful

Japanese BL Starter Pack

It’s been awhile since I dropped a rec list, so I am here today to share one that is very near and dear to my heart—a Japanese bl primer for those who are new to the jbl game. I created this for @neuroticbookworm to help her on her journey when she decided she wanted to start getting into Japanese works. The fandom (on Tumblr and generally) tends to focus primarily on Thai shows because they are the easiest to access for international fans, since Thailand is working its way toward world domination via ql media and wants us all to be able to watch. But there is a lot of great stuff to watch beyond the easy access Thai channels, and Japan is the country where this genre originated, so its shows are important for anyone who considers themselves a bl fan. Japan doesn’t cater nearly as much to the international audience so tracking down the shows sometimes takes some ingenuity and can-do spirit, but that’s part of the fun!

And so, the list! Bookworm is about halfway through it and having a ball, so I figured it was time to stop hoarding it and share it with anyone else who would like to dip their toes into jbl and isn’t quite sure where to start. A few notes:

I am not here to teach you about the deep roots of the jbl genre or give you a primer on yaoi manga. I am by no means an expert and there are other places to find that information. Start here with this great post by @nieves-de-sugui and then maybe wander over to @absolutebl to read up more on the evolution of the genre.

This list is by no means an exhaustive accounting of every important Japanese bl ever made; it is simply a nice sampler platter of the cream of the crop among various styles you will find in jbl. Watching through this whole list will not only expose you to some fantastic shows, but also give you a sense of what makes jbl unique and how the country’s style differs from others, and point you toward the types of jbl you’ll like most (they tend to put shows in pretty specific style and tone lanes and once you find the ones you like there are lots more where that came from).

If you’re coming to this post as a jbl lover and you don’t see your favorite here, I promise it’s not because I don’t love it very much; I simply had to make some choices to get this down to a reasonable shortlist. Feel free to leave extra recs for others to find!

I’m putting these in a loose suggested watch order that will take you through the various jbl lanes in a kind of popcorn style, because I always think it’s good to change it up so you don’t get too stuck in one mode, and it works its way up to most of the extremely Japanese stuff (you will know what that means by the time you finish). But do what’s in your heart and change up the order if you want, friends, I am not the boss of you!

Cherry Magic (Crunchyroll or grey)

gif by @liyazaki

I believe everyone on Tumblr is pretty familiar with this one, which is not a coincidence—this is one of the most accessible jbls. Not in terms of actual access to watch it, mind you (we’ve all jumped through shady internet hoops to watch it) but in terms of its content and style. Cherry Magic is a classic workplace romcom with a magical twist, and it is charming af. It’s a great exemplar of Japan’s light and zippy comedy lane for bl—a lane in which, importantly, the romances stay chaste even when the actual plot is about sex, or lack thereof. My friend @waitmyturtles would kill me if I didn’t make sure you know that Cherry Magic also has a lovely follow up film. And bonus: there is now a Thai remake airing so if you watch the original you can get in on the discussion about the different adaptations between countries. This is pretty easy to find these days in all the usual places, but I strongly recommend watching it here.

Old Fashion Cupcake (Viki)

gif by @liyazaki

Moving on to a slightly more mature workplace romcom. Old Fashion Cupcake, another Tumblr favorite, is an age gap boss-subordinate romance, and it’s both very adult and somehow wholesome af at the same time. Sure, there is a lot of carnal desire going on here, but there is also a lot of wooing via fluffy pancakes. It’s a tight five episodes and a fantastic example of what Japan, with its extreme technical precision in writing, directing, editing, pacing, and acting firing on all cylinders, can do in two hours. There’s not an ounce of flab on this thing and you’ll want to watch it over and over again.

Utsukushii Kare (Viki)

gif by @wanderlust-in-my-soul

Time to get a little weird! Weird is a key feature of Japanese media, and lots of jbls explore unusual relationship dynamics rooted in complex psychology. This is the first show on the list that will likely feel very Japanese if you’re new around here—my advice is to lean into it and finish the show, even if you get uncomfortable along the way. In Japanese media, discomfort always serves a purpose. This is a high school story with a twisted relationship at its center, and I’m not saying any more than that. Don’t spoil yourself and go watch it! This one also comes with two sequels—one short second season and one movie—that continue from the original story. They are less essential but still excellent.

I Cannot Reach You (Netflix)

gif by @my-rose-tinted-glasses

Next up, another high school tale, but with a totally different vibe. This show is kind of a revelation in its willingness to tell a story about overwhelming desire—including sexual desire—with young protagonists. It’s rooted in a classic but often misunderstood trope, friends to lovers, and takes the angst of it seriously, giving us a low stakes story that feels extremely high stakes to our leads. It’s also gorgeous and uses a classic Japanese visual style (bokeh) that you’ll be dying to learn more about.

His (Viki)

gif by @gabrielokun

Time for a break from high school, and we’ll sprinkle in a movie for some added flavor. His is a jbl film featuring a second chance romance between a stoic, introverted man who moves to a remote town to start over, and his ex-boyfriend who follows him there unexpectedly, adorable child in tow. Importantly, this movie does not take place in what we often refer to as the “bl bubble” where homophobia doesn’t exist; the leads’ experiences of being gay men in a homophobic society are hugely important to the plot and themes of the story. It’s a beautiful film and I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched it. @bengiyo would surely also like me to tell you that this film follows a brief prequel show called His: I Didn’t Mean to Fall in Love about the characters originally meeting in high school; I do not think it’s really necessary to watch it but completists can start there.

The Pornographer series (Gaga)

By now you should be ready to get into some classic Japanese fucked up psychosexual material, right? Right! The Pornographer series is told in five installments in this order:

The Novelist, a six episode miniseries

Mood Indigo, a six episode prequel series

Spring Life, a 15 minute short

Pornographer: Playback, a two hour film

Spring Life Continued, a 15 minute short

Confused by that distribution model? So say we all; sometimes Japan likes to make us work for it to make sure we really appreciate its many gifts to us. The story across these installments is about a very difficult to love protagonist, what makes him the way he is, and the also-unhinged-but-in-a-different-way man who finally gets through to him. It’s an extremely satisfying love story and one of the best character arcs I have ever seen, full stop. For this one, you’ll want to just pull the word problematic out of your pocket and store it in a drawer; nearly everything that happens in this story is problematic and that’s the point. Lean in! All of these installments except for the film are on Gaga, if you get that far hmu and I will supply you with the final puzzle piece.

Our Dining Table (Gaga)

You could probably use a break after those last two, so it’s time to shift over to a heart-tugging twofer: family trauma mixed with the cutest shit you’ve ever seen. ODT is an example of another classic type of Japanese show: the food drama (you will see the GOAT in this category at the end of this list). In Japanese culture, food is love, and the act of preparing food for your loved ones is a common path to romance. You’ll love this story about an isolated office worker who meets a pair of brothers, learns to cook as a way of connecting with them, and begins to heal from his own trauma as a result. The image above is a scan from the manga, which @troubled-mind curates to make extremely cool comparison sets like this one. Many jbls are faithful adaptations of yaoi manga source material, so it’s good to have a bit of familiarity with them.

Minato’s Laundromat (Gaga)

gif by @liyazaki

Japanese media loves to explore taboo, and often manages to do it in a way that is surprisingly light and chaste. This is an age gap romance between a teenager and his adult neighbor that explores internalized homophobia, emotional repression, and falling in love across seemingly impossible social chasms. It’s also a great example of old school yaoi seme-uke dynamics that still show up across the bl genre. Also, take my advice: end your journey with this one with the first season and just pretend season 2 doesn’t exist.

Eternal Yesterday (Viki)

gif by @wanderlust-in-my-soul

Remember what I said about weird? Time to do that again, but with a heaping dose of grief and pain on top. It’s not a spoiler to tell you this show involves a major character death; a major character death is, in fact, the root of the entire story. This is a magic realist tale of first love turned tragic, and it will hurt and heal you. It is one of my favorite dramas of all time.

Restart After Come Back Home (Gaga)

And now for a break for your poor exhausted brain. This film is basically the jbl version of a Hallmark original movie, about a city boy who goes back home to the country and falls in love with a total sweetheart while working together on a farm. Enjoy it, bestie, you’ve earned it!

Tokyo in April Is… (Gaga)

gif by @wanderlust-in-my-soul

You’ve probably noticed by now that emotional repression and failed communication are big themes in Japanese works. This second chance romance has plenty of both, and it’s a great example of a kind of muted emotional style that Japan does so well, where the surface of the story seems almost placid and calm even as deep emotion roils underneath. This one (and Eternal Yesterday above) are part of a special line up of jbls on Japanese channel MBS called Tonku (Drama) Shower. The shows air one after another in the same time slot on Fridays (in Japan, perhaps Thursdays for you depending on where you live) and you truly never know what you’re gonna get, but they’re all interesting. Warnings on this one for sexual assault and trauma.

The End of the World With You (Viki)

Time for sexy and weird again, but even more so! This has to be one of the most unique bls ever made; it goes to some truly divine and strange places, and it feels incredibly queer while doing it. Made by the same screenwriter/director of the Pornographer series with a lot of the same sensibilities, but in a more heightened apocalyptic setting. This one has existential angst, a road trip, a redemption tale, and a variety of interesting side characters in the mix.

What Did You Eat Yesterday? (Gaga)

gif by @my-rose-tinted-glasses

Congratulations, you’ve reached the end of the list and your reward is watching one of the best bls of all time, and a perfect slice of life food drama to boot. WDYEY now has two seasons (along with a couple specials and a movie that fall in between) because the universe clearly loves us. You can now get it on Gaga for easy access but I’m partial to the versions over at @kinounaniresource for better subs. Wherever you watch, settle in to get cozy with Shiro and Kenji and make sure to always eat before you hit play.
