The Proper Way to Write Love was a nice one. Not really my favorite since it was a little too much heavy on the thrope of the misunderstanding, but as most of the Japanese drama, the production was very nice, the actors were good, in particular the character of Washizawa Natsuo was top notch. Natsuo is a simple man, very open with his feelings, or at least he is now. When Natsuo and Suzuki Hiroshi were at school together, Natsuo's attentions towards Hiroshi had seemed like almost bullying, and that is what Hiro remembers of those years. But yes, both actors were very good, and therefore move along a thrope that is not really my cup of tea. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala. Heat Level: 5/6.

Heat Level:

1/6: glances, caress, hugs, no kisses

2/6: kisses, closed mouth or camera angles

3/6: full kisses, clothes on

4/6: full kisses, some clothes off, hands above the waist, pants stay on

5/6: most clothes off, they have sex, but it’s masked, no sexy sounds

6/6: full nudity mostly hidden by camera angles, they have sex, sexy sounds

Dazed and confused, Chihiro awakes on a pile of garbage with memories of wedding still fresh in his mind. When out of the blue a young man named Keito appears before him. Instantly, he then recalls the night he spent with this person. The booze! The hotel! The punch to his face!

Chihiro may not have a place to call home currently and Keito may not be a good person by any means, but maybe the two of them could be happy together.

When I saw they did a drama from the yaoi manga Happy of the End I was sort of surprise, since, while I liked a lot this one, it's very dark, very sad, and even if it has an Happy Ending, they go through hell to reach it. The manga is 2 volumes currently, but the 3rd one is already planned to come out in 2025; the drama is about the first volume, and yes, it's the darker one. From second volumes on the story is sort of lighter, giving you hope for these two men. I think that, if I haven't read the first 3 volumes together, based only on the first one, I would have not consider this story. But yes, I think it's worth to see; of course not if you have past experience of abuse, especially child abuse, cause here you see everything, and they do not try to hide it behind closed door. Also the sex between Chihiro and Keito it's more like therapy rather than romantic: they are trying to cure and save each other proving they are still alive and being able to feel something. Keito is not kind or caring with Chihiro, but he is also the only one who give Chihiro the feeling of being really wanted. So yes, I would not recommend this one to the fainted hearts, but for sure I'm recommending it. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala. Heat Level: 5/6.
