Hey. Ty very much for your posts. As a woman in my 30s I got hypnotised by the beauty of the novelists and was wondering if you had similar high heat intense recommendations (also watched the samurai one "taboo"), bi or mlm with older leads and non fluffy storylines.. Moody atmospheric and venomous is my weak spot

Moody, atmospheric & venomous BL

Like, the Novelist? really?

AKA Pornographer movie series AKA The Novelist, Mood Indigo, Pornographer Playback (Japan 2018-2020) - emotional manipulation, cheating, obsession, seduction, May/December, kink, touch of necrophilia, explicit.

Okay I got one right off the bat: seek ye....

The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese

AKA Kyuso wa Chizu no Yume wo Miru (Japan 2020) - obsession, cheating, breakup, reunion, then break up again, explicit, mature characters.

Now let me think about some more:

high heat

intense

non fluffy

older leads

The last one is a doozy, so I'm not gonna use it as a qualifier. BL is most, well, about "boys" not men.

Some others that might work for you but don't meet all your criteria:

Your Name Engraved Herein (Taiwan 2020 Netflix) - this movie is fantastic but it is also seriously depressing, it’s a self acceptance journey, but if you wanna wallow in high quality acting and serious gay drama, this’ll do it.

Innocent (Taiwan 2021 GaGa) - mental health, childhood trauma, actually kinda sweet.

The Eighth Sense (Korea 2023 Viki - This isn’t in the KBL bubble, there’s sharp edges and lots of triggers. For a KBL the darkness of the content left me feeling unsettled but it's really damn good.

My Personal Weatherman AKA Taikan Yoho (Japan 2023 Gaga) - Basically: boys who fell in love in college end up living together but both are so repressed they actually don't realize they're in love. They're hot, young, in love, and total idiots.

I Feel You Linger in the Air (Thai 2023 grey or YT) - IFYLITA is an exquisite BL, elegant and classy… from Thailand which normally doesn't even try for classy. The main couple (both as a pair and individuals) were excellent, it gets hot more that explicit, but it does have sharp edges.

Tokyo in April is AKA Shigatsu no Tokyo wa (Japan 2023 Viki) - Two young men with a shared tragic past reunite and fall in love all over again, but the past will not stop hunting them. It’s Japan in full on soft focus which means it gets emo, abusive, and chewy. These two characters are giving parts of their souls away in a desperate attempt to shape themselves to the expectations they have of each other it's heavy and cutting.

Moonlight Chicken (Thai 2023) - I enjoyed this complicated little show, even though it’s spectacularly messy gay with lots of shrapnel and authentic pain. EarthMix turn in their most compelling performance to date.

Bed Friend (Thai 2023 IQIYI) - Office frienamies transition a flaming hot one night stand into a f-buddy relationship that is built on a puppy/cat dynamic (and kinks into it at one point). Our puppy is loyal, smitten, and protective with endlessly longing eyes, while our cat is snarky, prickly, and deeply damaged (ALL THE TRIGGERS). NetJames give lovely high-heat with excellent chemistry and tuned-in performances of surprising depth.

Big Dragon (Thai 2022 Gaga) - This is a decent execution of true enemies to lovers, these two spy on and bully each other, exploring darker themes and self worth issues. The way the leads transition between anger, resentment, titillation, and flirting (and the way, with kinksters, this can all be the same thing) is really well done. A pairing that proved itself to be a lot more sophisticated than I expected with excellent chemistry, but something went askew around plot, directing, and ending. Still if you're in it for the sexy, go to, they did.

My Beautiful Man AKA Utsukushii Kare (Japan 2021 Gaga - One of the most Japanese BLs to release in the last decade, as weird and as messed up as any 2000′s yaoi: emo af and hella warped, entirely true to itself with no attempt made to modify its POV for modern sensibilities or current BL fandom. It used seriously old school problematic and kinky tropes, like whipping boy, for a truly uncompromising piece that also manages to hit up themes of communication, consent, and self acceptance. It’s a wonderful BL but uniquely dirty and harsh, in the best possible way - Japanese cinema, uncompromising.

End of the World With You

Junjou: Pure Heart

The Egoist

No thoughts on those three, not my thing.

You also might consider some of the stuff on this list:

Hope that gives you some options!

i don't know if anybody else thinks the same but for some reason, and without knowing who the person in the preview for episode 5 is, Iwanaga having this many people gravitating towards him makes me think of Kyoichi from the movie The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese.

something about not being able to/not saying no and knowing yourself but not knowing what you want when you want it or not having courage or not being able to want something at all then suffering the consequences.

saying no is a big part of knowing what you want which i think is very hard but a must if you are a functioning adult.

#love is better the second time around #koi wo suru nara nidome ga joto #the cornered mouse dreams of cheese #yeah i might not be making sense #but my brain says there is a connection so there you go

The Stool in Cornered Mouse... a play in 3 acts

After Wataru starts staying with Kyoichi, The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese depicts him perching on this stool a few times. Just Wataru, not Kyoichi.

Wataru moves out and Kyoichi's fiance moves in. In this scene, Kyoichi is uncomfortable with her sitting on Wataru's stool, but he's unfailingly polite to women, so he gets her off the stool by calling her to the bed.

After Kyoichi breaks up with her to prepare for Wataru's return, we're shown Kyoichi... I think for the first time... sitting on Wataru's stool.

I have a full review of The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese here, but I didn't want to go on and on so I'll post a few more thoughts on this well-crafted movie occasionally.

Hi there - big fan of your blog! I actually revived this old tumblr so I could keep track of BL content from you and a few others. I also subscribed to Gaga on your rec and have started watching some of the old shows on there. This week I tried one of the explicit Japanese films, which leads me to my question.

I started with Dangerous Drugs of Sex, and I had your trigger warnings in mind so I went in with kind of a morbid fascination. This one didn’t really hang together all that well narratively, and I got preoccupied with all the plot holes (like where did that sex dungeon of doom come from if he decided to save him on a whim??) and weird character notes. So I’m wondering - are any of these films actually GOOD? As in, a coherent story, characters that make sense, a somewhat satisfying or at least fitting end? Or are they all kind of like this, just a giant mishmash of triggers and sex acts and weird?

Oh that is a good question. Hum. Are any of the pinks or higher heat dark BLs from Japan good? Objectively from like a narrative and filming perspective.

Hum. How about I approach it this way:

Darker or more atmospheric and arty Japanese BLs that I remember not regretting watching because of quality & style:

2008 Forbidden Love - don’t get me wrong I HATE this BL but it satisfies your criteria

2017 Double Mints - same again

2019 His: I Didn't Think I Would Fall In Love the series

Pornographer movie series - AKA The Novelist, Mood Indigo, Pornographer Playback (2018-2020)

2020 The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese: Kyuso wa Chizu no Yume wo Miru

No quite dark not quite BL but very different but interesting:

2015 Wait For Me at Udagawachou: Udagawachou de Matteteyo

2018 Does the Flower Bloom?

2020 His the movie

(Here's my original post on the subject.)
