Episode 6 // Episode 8
Love for Love's Sake (2024) dir. Kim Kyun Ah
I finally had some time to translate the Yoneda Kou interview in the March issue of the magazine “Da Vinci” that came out last month. The issue focuses on introducing BL manga to male readers, and includes interviews with some other BL mangaka like Harada, Takarai Rihito, and Kumota Haruko as well.
“Saezuru tori wa habatakanai” is a BL manga about the lives of men on the dark side of society. Despite its genre and graphic sex scenes the series has an exceptional number of male supporters as well. Why is that? We’ve asked the author Yoneda Kou who recently started serializing another series called “OP – The Colorless Days of Yoake Itaru” in the seinen magazine “Evening”.
The setting is a well-known criminal organization, the Japanese Yakuza. In Saezuru tori wa habatakanai which tells the story of the shrewd wakagashira Yashiro and the ex-cop Doumeki who becomes his personal assistant / bodyguard, Yoneda Kou creates a dense picture of a male-dominated world wavering between chivalry and jealousy, conspiracies and sexual desire. Not only is the series immensely popular among BL readers, it also receives favorable ratings from outside the genre, having won prizes like the FRaU Manga Award and the SUGOI JAPAN Award. Even the author herself never expected such a response from Non-BL readers when she first started serializing her work. »It feels very odd to me, since I’m drawing with the intention of creating a straightforward BL story. Given Yashiro’s characterization as lewd and masochistic, I first thought that my manga wouldn’t even appeal to many BL readers. That’s why I simply feel happy that someone would go so far as recommend it to others.«

Awesome growing trend
Fun Fact: If you like the cinematography on KinnPorsche and Big Dragon, it's because it's from the same people who did I Told Sunset About You and I Promised You the Moon
Joy Maneerat Srinakarin - I Told Sunset About You -> KinnPorsche
also did Great Men Academy
Ratchanon Kaeosaart - I Promised You The Moon -> Big Dragon
So if you ever watch these series and think, "Wow, those colors seem intentional" or "Do those chains and bars mean something?", the answer is yes. The cinematography is a character in itself. Instead of watching acting, you are watching the entire series reinforce the acting because the camera movements, angles, placement, colors, lighting, and so much more support the storytelling process.
Sidenote: If you're enjoying the cinematography on The Eclipse, the same person, Suthipong Teerasakul, is scheduled to do the cinematography for the upcoming OhmFluke project 609 Bedtime Stories, which will also have the same director and screenwriters as The Eclipse.

The idea of english as a mother tongue is so strange to me, in my head english is how ppl communicate when there's no way in common to communicate, so english as a mother tongue sounds a bit like idk email as a mother tongue ykwim? Like english to me feels like the stuff that's used to fill the empty spaces between languages

Not just thousands of Palestinian children, but tens of thousands of Palestinian youths, men, women, and the elderly. 5% of Gaza's population has been either severely disabled/injured, has gone missing, or has been genocided. From destroying orchards and farms, to the destruction of Gaza Infrastructure to the point where it has collapsed in many spaces -especially their medical complexes, to the complete lack of access to fresh and clean water. Israhell is also still starving Palestinians -is still committing war crimes, and now this? The zionists are continuing their illegal settler-colonial project full steam ahead apparently, and it's beyond horrific.

Belle has Stockholm syndrome because she falls in love with the Beast, her kidnapper.
Stockholm syndrome was coined to slander a woman who had been in a hostage situation but openly criticized the poor police response which recklessly put her in more danger and escalated the violence. She was then belittled and discredited publically by the police for this.
So. Yeah. Maybe Belle does have Stockholm syndrome actually.
While standing in line trying to get some food in the southern Gaza Strip, he yelled at the journalist Fakri Ibrahim, saying: 'Send this picture to Israel and the world.'
There are only two mental illnesses according to people on the internet:
Innocent bean syndrome: You can never do wrong and got no agency. You will be infantilized on every occasion and are treated as a quirk.
Bad person syndrome: You are bad and an abuser. Your presence kills people.
