BL of 2023
It’s only April, but I don’t see a scenario where any BL captures to magic and poignancy of this series this year.
The Eighth Sense is an emotional and thematically rich tale of healing and overcoming trauma under the guise of a simple love story between our two leads. The writing is top notch, direction and cinematography is beautiful, soundtrack is one of the best I’ve ever heard from a BL, and the whole thing is anchored by two incredible performances. This is a Don’t miss series.
Even though the show has a melancholy tone, I hope that doesn’t discourage potential watchers who look to BLs for fluff and escapism — I promise you will be rewarded for the journey.
