BL Best of 2022 - quick picks

Best KBL: Semantic Error

Best Thai BL: Bad Buddy (remember for me this falls into 2022)

Best JBL: this was the hardest pick for me because Japan came back SWINGING this year. So... I cheated.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Best eye contact/soulmating/eyefucking: FirstKhao in The Eclipse although Japan did great work with THIRST this year (bit more one sided, that one).

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

❣️ Star In My Mind - I’m so happy that this is meeting my expectations exactly lol I’m loving it so much! 🥺 I was looking forward to it and it’s exactly what I was hoping it would be. And though the plot seems like something you would find in a 2016 bl, it still has a lot of modernity to it and is a lot of fun to watch. I definitely missed the Gmmtv FriGay madness lol and it's good to see Joong again. Kluen and Nuea are adorable and a shoutout goes to the friend group because they’re iconic lol. 12/10 I’m obsessed.

October 2022 BL Forthcoming

Oct 3

To Sir With Love

AKA Khun Chai - Thai (Trailer) 10 eps 40 min ea

A Thai HISTORICAL gay romance came outta nowhere (probubly not BL, more cray cray family drama). Does not look like it’s gonna end happy, but I’m still excited.

One31HD, no idea on international, possibly WeTV

Kabe Koji

AKA Kabesaa AKA Kabesaa Doujin Sakka no Neko Yashiki-kun wa Shounin Yokkyuu wo Kojirasete iru* - Japan 10 eps 20 min ea

Gossip here. A manga artist wants nothing more than to see his yaoi on shelves and be recognized by readers. Then one day he meets a childhood friend he once had a crush on who is now an idol. From Minamoto Kazuki's manga Kabe Sa Doujin Sakka no Neko Yashiki-kun wa Shouninyokkyuu wo Kojiraseteiru, stars Matsuoka Koudai (the mangaka - I know him from Five) and Nakao Masaki (the idol - Kakafukaka, Bow Then Kiss - he’s a BIG DEAL ya’ll).

Viki

* JUST PICK A TITLE, JAPAN

Oct 5

Ghost Host, Ghost House

Thai (Trailer) 5 eps 30 min? ea

My ghost bf trope. Kawin (Love Area), a live streamer who hopes to see ghosts once, and Pluem, a young man who fills in his missing feelings. Could be sad.

YouTube for reruns

Oct 8

Big Dragon

Thai (Trailer) 8 ep 40 min ea

Star Hunter’s back and bringing on the chaos as per usual. Based on the y- novel, มังกรกินใหญ่ by Aiden N Vivienne (reputed to be plotless smut), features Mangkorn (Dragon) & Yai (Big) in a high angst blackmail plot plus a secret piece on the side. 2022 is the year BL glorifies cheaters, apparently.

OneTV reruns on Star Hunter’s YT

Oct 9

Remember Me

AKA Remember the series - Thai (Trailer) 8 ep 40 min ea

JaFirst + plus same cast (and production company, Ultimate Troop) as The Yearbook. Also has Title (LBCs+) and Mean (LBC2) in possibly one of BLs worst ever wigs (and that is saying a lot).

Thailand! Put down the wigs and the acoustic guitar. I am losing patience here.

Gaga

Oct 10

2 Moons: The Ambassador

AKA 2 Moons 3 Thai (Trailer) 10 eps 40 min ea

From Motive Village for Amarin TV. I predict a shit show. But it is supposed to finally finish out the plot of 2M2 with added 2 more couples. Because why not?

Who tf cares?

Oct 13

Circumstances of Pungdeok Villa Room 304

AKA Roommates of Poongduck 304 Korea 8 eps 20 ea

From Idol Romance, A happy-go-lucky third-generation chaebol receives an ultimatum from daddy to: 1. Leave the house penniless and survive for 2 years; and 2. Achieve results as team leader in a new business venture. The owner of the villa he lands in ignores and disregards him. However, it turns out they work in the same company. Let the cohabitation office drama commence.

Stars Kim Ji Woong & Yoon Seo Bin of Kissable Lips - Korea’s first example of a co branded repeat pair. Also will feature Singer-actor Holland (Ocean Likes Me) and Actor Kang Woo Jung (Once Again). I liked them all A LOT and am very excited about this show.

Viki (not sure on this air date)

SELF

Thai

A young artist (musician? NO!) mysteriously loses his reflection and sees a strange boy in the mirror instead, PNR and/or horror. Stars fresh faces, directed by Too (Triage) and NutSor (screenwriter of Dew). Could be sad.

Oct 14

My Tooth Your Love

Taiwan (Trailer) 12 eps 30 min ea

From Result Entertainment (producers of We Best Love) a story about a dentist and his patient, also a bar owner and a rebellious young man (who takes the initiative even with a 12 year age gap). Stars Andy Wu (Amensalism), and Alex Chou (composer/musician and the bartender in WBL). Script by Lin Pei who loves VERY traditional yaoi tropes (HIStory1: Obsessed, HIStory2: Right or Wrong, HIStory2: Crossing the Line, HIStory3: Trapped, WBL, & See You After Quarantine?)

Gaga & Viki

Oct 15

Hard Love Mission

Thai (Trailer)

Thai pulp about a journalist sent to interview a celebrity on an island who then ends up his manager.

WeTV & iQiyi?

Wish Me Luck

Thai

About a boss and his temporary employee in an advertising company, based on Bittersweet's y-novel of the same name สุดที่รักษ์. Starring my boy Fiat (Grean Fictions, SOTUS S, My Gear and Your Gown, Triage) who I’ve been waiting to lead a BL for a decade (it feels like) and Na Naphat (KinnPorsche, UWMA).

Oct 20

Eternal Yesterday

AKA Eien no Kino Japan 8 eps 25 ea

Japan takes on ghost boyfriends now? Is no country safe from this damn trope? Taking over Takara-kun and Amagi-kun's time slot in the home country this is a school romance between two boys. After one of them is run over, other friends gradually forget about his existence.

Distribution unknown.

Oct 28

Grand Guignol

movie (Trailer)

Japan’s school horror BL movie グランギニョール starring Rio Komiya (Eternal Yesterday) and Ryosuke Sota (Mr Unlucky) among others.

Oct 29

Till The World Ends

Boys, trapped somewhere, end of world, yadda yadda. Art’s (What the Duck) comeback, so that’s interesting.

Distribution unknown.

Oct ?

Choco Milk Shake

Korea (Teaser) 8 eps 15 ea

Strongberry bringing us a full length romcom that looks bonkers. Childhood pets reincarnated as humans find their former owner and flirt with him, I guess. In Strongberry we trust but this premise is testing me.

Distribution unknown.

My Roommate

Thai (Trailer)

I couldn’t even watch the trailer, the sound and filming was that awful.

YouTube I think.

Hello there oh great BL Titan,

As someone who has always loved tracking what I watch and read, I found your Spreadsheet of Doom facinating.

I don't watch every BL that comes out, but I like knowing about everything that came out yearly, and I realise that have missed a lot of gems that came out this year.

I was wondering if you could make a list of every BL that came out this year? Movie or series...

I do not want to tire you BL Titan, but you are the best to ask for this.

At the end of the year, yours truly will knock out a massive post with everything I watched in alphabetical order with ratings and tiny reviews, plus allt he ones I didn't watch.

But for now I can give you a list of what came out in 2022 so far and what airing right now?

Will that suffice?

Reveal your watch, rewatch & excited about BL list

@iankuea thanks for the taggage

CURRENTLY WATCHING:

Minato Shouji Coin Laundry (Japan) - Shin is my PRECIOUS baby stalker seme edgey honeychild and Minato is going to break that desperate 17 year old need open like a balut egg. I just hope we get at least some kisses before THE PAIN.

Triage (Thailand) - OMG SO GOOD, the tension, the twists, the flips, the acting the CAN THEY END IT HAPPY????

Love Mechanics (Thailand) - messy cheating chaos queers of epic stupid but SO WELL ACTED - can’t stop the YinWar

KinnPorsche (Thailand) - I like 1/5 of it more than I should and the rest of it less than I ought

Unforgotten Night (Thailand) - for a kinky BDSM there is not enough kink, B, D, S, or M sadly, still it marks the return of the trash watch!

Senpai, Danjite Koidewa! (Japan) - my least favorite dynamic but watchable

Love in Spring (Korea) - rumors of no kiss/bromance abound, it’s dumb, I love the psycho character... of course I do... I AM the psycho character

Check Out (Thailand) - messy cheating chaos queers of epic stupid

Star and Sky: Sky in Your Heart (Thailand) - yawn fest

My Secret Love (Thailand) - it’s absolutely terrible

Kimi no Koto Dake Mite Itai (Japan) - I magically got ahold of it but haven’t had the courage to watch it yet

Not BL...

Alchemy of Souls - it’s CW level Kdrama historical craptastic and I have been waiting for this all my life.

Love the Way You Are (China) - NOONA ROMANCE! basically China doing a remake of Something In The Rain only sappier, softer, and probubly with a better ending

REWATCHING:

DNA Says Love You (Taiwan)

Love Class (Korea)

My Esports Genius Brother (China)

Long Time No See (Korea)

Old Fashioned Cupcake (Japan)

LOOKING FORWARD TO THAILAND:

609 Bedtime Story - OhmFluke but not sad, I hope.

Bed Friend - I’ve wanted James to get his own BL since Oxygen

Between Us - of course

Chains of Heart - new premise, intriguing

City of Stars AKA Fueangnakorn - An actor falls in love with a programmer and the narrative intends to “explore the ramifications of being public figure in the social network era who must endure critics, bullying, and defamation.”

Coffee Melody - Pavel MY LOVE

The Eclipse - First + Khaotung at a sinister boarding school, haze the one you love, good boy/bad boy, suspense & horror elements, self acceptance themes, a curse, enemies to lovers

Fahlanruk The Series - one night stand, friends with benefits, pining seme, high heat

I Feel You Linger in the Air - from the producers of Lovely Writer. This is a time travel historical romance. FROM THAILAND! H I S T O R I C A L ! ! !

My School President - It’s Love Sick meets the whipping boy trope. How exciting. Yes, I know, we’ve seen it all before. But this is me. I never met a high school set BL I didn’t want to grant a fair shake (even one that centers around singing). And I love me some whipping boy.

Never Let Me Go - PondPhuwin in a decent show? Sign me up: mafia, attack dog (whipping boy + bodyguard), love triangle, obsession, suspense

Vise Versa - proud member of Jimmy nation here and this is alt reality, bodyswap, soulmates. Soem trope I love, some I don’t

FROM KOREA

Eul's Love - Reunion romance office set.

The Circumstances of Pungdeok Villa Room 304 - Same pair as Kissable lips - Korea’s first example of this kind of casting. Rich kid lay about meets poor nerd, cohabitation.

Heesu in Class 2 - high school shy unpopular boy with a secret crush on best friend.

Comfort the Boy adaptation of Dongmul's manwha webtoon A Shoulder to Cry On. Teasing confident gay, fake dating, rich/poor, school setting, homophobia/gossip puts scholarship in jeopardy. Stars idols Jaehan & Yechan BOTH from Kpop group OMEGA X, 12 eps. MADNESS.

The Director Who Buys Me Dinner

Love Tractor asame production house as Semantic Error, stressed-out law student meets hunky young farmer. This is a very underused romance trope in BL.

Oh My Assistant - sexy one for Korea about an artist who draws adult webtoons and spends most of his time horny because of it, who hires an assistant that turns out to be his biggest fan. We’re gone see how Korea handles thirst.

PT is Love - friends of 10 years who’ve been hiding feelings for each other enter the same university. Plus MURDER.

Love is like a Cat: A new star, called the Cat Prince for his cold arrogance, goes up against a charismatic puppyish director. Korean Thai colab project will feature Mew Suppasit.

Space Bakery: A spaceship crash-lands into and destroys a small bakery shop. Of course this means the alien and the baker end up living together. At the same time, other aliens-in-hiding all around the city start hunting for them.

FROM TAIWAN

I Secretly Fell in Love with Student Council President (let the dumb titles continue) - director of H2: Crossing the Line; Love Is Science with possible alternate title: About Youth. 2 high school boys with different backgrounds, personalities, and values compete for student president, but have more attraction than animosity.

My Tooth Your Love (from Result Entertainment - We Best Love peeps) with script by Lin Pei who loves VERY traditional yaoi tropes, she’s the writer of mush HIStory stuff.

FROM JAPAN

Bokura no Shokutaku AKA Our Dining Table - I LOVED THIS MANGA. Lonely salaryman (talented cook) gets accidentally adopted by a college kid and his baby brother. They build a family together. This is a sweetly gentle and cozy manga and it will make a GREAT live action piece.

Kabesaa Doujin Sakka no Neko Yashiki-kun wa Shounin Yokkyuu wo Kojirasete iru - starring Matsuoka Koudai (I know him from Five) and Nakao Masaki (Kakafukaka, Bow Then Kiss - he’s a BIG DEAL ya’ll) slated to be released in October.

Copy and paste and play if you want.

September 2022 BL Line Up

9/11 Fahlanruk (Thai)

GaGa Sundays, 10 eps, 45 min ea.

Fahlan (smart jock) meets Sherbet (edgy bad boy) sparks fly and they end up in bed together. Fahlan feels a lot more for Sherbet than is allowed, so he hides his feelings. Fahlan’s friends Ping and Tap, try to help their boy win his man, but are struggling with friends-to-lovers woes of their own. Looks to be a strong contender in the Thai BL pulp dumpster fire of joy arena. It’s using tropes we rarely see and it tonally seems like a combination of Nitiman + Y-Destiny’s players episode (2 of my 2021 favorites). I like sexually messy and identity confused college dramas but Love Mechanics might have tapped me out.

Y-novel adaptation featuring a pining seme and high heat, from director Koo who has a long back catalogue of shows, if not a great track record with BL (Club Friday and Tonhon Chonlatee are his).

9/14 Once Again (Korea)

Viki Thursdays, 8 eps, 25 min ea

Time-slip fantasy BL from Moving Picture studio & Idol Romance behind Wish You, Ryu's Wedding, Tasty Florida, Tinted With You, and Kissable Lips (also forthcoming Happy Ending Outside The Fence and The Circumstances of Pungdeok Villa Room 304). Stars actors (no idols) Moon Ji Young (also star in an upcoming BL The New Employee), Lee Hyuk Jun, and Kang Woo Jung.

JaeWoo lives with childhood trauma. He travels to the past where he meets JiHoon, a law student who JaeWoo admires most in the world. Will he be able to change both their fates?

9/16: More Than Words (Japan)

Amazon Prime Video JP (only?)

Adaptation of Etsuko’s two mangas In The Apartment and More Than Words, starring Ryōko Fujino (Fujoshi, Ukkari Gei ni Kokuru), Yuzu Aoki (Kakafukaka), Daisuke Nakagawa (Colorful Love), and Daiki Kanechika (EXIT).

Told from the perspective of the female best friend who is against (?) the workplace gay relationship of her bff. Also there is another gay plot line.

9/22: My Tempo (Thailand)

Unknown distribution.

BL movie about the Thai music industry. What joy is mine.

9/26 Ai Long Nhai (Thai)

No international distribution as yet, 10 eps 45 min ea.

About a man expelled from foreign university who returns to a Thai university in disgrace and meets A Boy.

From Thailand’s Mflow Entertainment for Ch3Thailand. Adapted from a Y-novel, directed by Nob (La Cuisine, Gen Y). Secondary couple Nan & Sippakorn are IRL husbands Arm & Porsch (Together with Me). Familiar faces include Gun (Love Area’s Valen) and Jom (Nitiman’s Jin).

This is actually the inception story of the characters of AiNi in Tonhon Chonlatee which I didn’t realize. Now I loved those characters, but I disliked that series from a story standpoint and this is the same author so I’m now nervous.

Comfort the Boy AKA A Shoulder to Cry On (Korea)

No international distribution as yet, 12 eps 20 min ea (?)

Looks to be a longer than usual KBL, got an R15+ rating for topic & vulgarity (we likey), stars idols Jaehan & Yechan BOTH from Kpop group OMEGA X (we scairedy). Interesting that an idol company is allowing two idols from the same group star in a BL together. *danger will robinson.”

Adaptation of Dongmul's manwha A Shoulder to Cry On, high school set, features a teasing confident gay, and a rich/poor pairing, about homophobia/gossip putting a scholarship in jeopardy.

SELF the series (Thai)

No international distribution as yet, no known length.

From Studio Common about a young artist who mysteriously loses his reflection and sees a strange boy in the mirror instead. Stars fresh faces, directed by Too (Triage) and NutSor (screenwriter of Dew).

Happy Ending Outside the Fence (Korea )

No international distribution as yet, probably usual KBL length.

JungWoo is a writer who disappeared after being treated unfairly in the publishing industry. TaeYoung, the head of a publishing company, admires and wants him to write again. JungHyun became a star by borrowing JungWoo's writings. The three characters interact and drama results. Stars idol Leo of VIXX.

Magic of Zero: Zero Supporter (Thai)

GMMTV feat advertisement specail (c 45 min) on their YT channel

Cupid's Last Wish spin off, features EarthMix in another bodyswap on this time with each other (KornWin). I disliked the origin show intensely, so I can’t see myself watching this.

MPD (missing presumed dead):

Ghost Host, Ghost House. Thai PNR pulp BL was billed as dropping in August.

Do you have any recs for somewhat situational romcom-style stuff where at least half of the main pairing is kind of stupid but in an endearing way, rather than a wildly cringy one?

For example, I loved Kieta Hatsukoi and Fukou-kun wa Kiss Suru Shikanai, but I bounced off of My School President and Secret Crush On You and some others due to finding the protag(s) a little too embarrassing. I generally tend towards Korean and Japanese BLs because I prefer my tv shows short in total length, but I'd be happy watching more Thai ones if I can just find ones that suit me.

This is one of those instances where I am not sure i can help bc we may feel differently about this king of BL. I found Fukou-kun wa Kiss Suru Shikanai nearly unbearable but adored My School President. Like you I bounced VERY hard off of SCOY and I love Kieta Hatsukoi.

I think you might like the "Baby is a chaos muffin" archetype so here's a list of those:

Somewhat situational romcom-style stuff where at least half of the main pairing is kind of stupid but in an endearing way

I can pull things that may fit your criteria from Japan & Korea and some of these I promise you won't have seen.

I bolded the ones I really liked, but ignore at will since we may hive different taste.

From Japan

Cherry Magic AKA 30 Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard AKA 30-sai made Dotei Da to Mahotsukai ni Nareru rashii AKA Cheri Maho

Takara & Amagi AKA Takara-kun to Amagi-kun

Kabe Koji AKA Kabesaa Doujin Sakka no Neko Yashiki-kun wa Shounin Yokkyuu wo Kojirasete iru

Ossan's Love

From Korea

(generally they are more subtle about this style)

All the Liquors

Behind Cut

Choco Milk Shake

Ocean Likes Me

Oh! Boarding House

Roommates of Poongduck 304 AKA Circumstances of Pungdeok Villa Room 304

Nobleman Ryu's Wedding

First Love Again

Individual Circumstances

Mr. Heart

Oh My Assistant

The Lover (BL Cut)

And in case you're feeling frisky & experimental

My Esports Genius Brother - China, Gaga

River Knows Fish Heart - China, Gaga (bit harsh)

Ossan's Love: Love or Dead - Hong Kong

Monthly likes/dislikes

❣️ Cupid’s Last Wish - I didn’t have the highest expectations for this one, partly due to the plot, partly due to bad reviews, but omg I loved it so much. It was so much fun to see EarthMix again and especially Mix killed it like oof my boy can act. He made me wanna slap Win hard in the face a couple times lmao I’m very impressed. I loved the whole roadtrip theme so much and all the sceneries were so nice! I wish the release had been handled better because what’s even the point of the rerun on youtube now? but anyway. A+ 🥺

❣️ Blueming - I didn’t really have this on my radar and I certainly didn’t expect to love it as much as I did. Beautiful cinematography, strong cast and wonderful characters. The plot didn’t seem like much at first but it quickly turned into something very enjoyable. I loved it from start to finish oh and have I mentioned the music? Incredible. I’m super happy to have found yet another kbl that I thoroughly loved. I highly recommend! All episodes are on Dramacool.

👎🏻 The Tuxedo - heck. I was so excited for this one. All the promotion they did looked very promising and also the cast like hello?? Chap finally getting the main role he deserves?? But yikes. It’s bad. Starting with the role of Nawee, which is sadly not suitable for Chap at all (pun intended). The plot is shallow and plain and what’s with all these tripped-and-kissed scenes?? this isn’t 2016. the overall cringe-factor is very high and I’m praying that Chap and Green will be in for bigger things after this because they deserve so much better.
