Junjō Romantica (TV)
Genres: comedy, drama, erotica, romance Themes: bishounen, Intense, sexual assault, shounen-ai, yaoi ![]() Plot Summary: Misaki is suddenly having some unexpected and odd problems. What started as a need for some college entrance exam tutoring has somehow led him to being romanced by a suave older man who also happens to be his big brother’s best friend. Confused by all of his brand new emotions, Misaki struggles to deal with his suddenly very odd life. And if that wasn’t enough, his suitor, Usami, has plenty of issues of his own. A man-child who decorates his room in giant teddy bears and toys, Usami is a famous novelist who also writes steamy boys’ love novels on the side. When Misaki cracks open one of these books and reads sentences like “Misaki licks every inch of Usami’s hot body”…well, let’s just say that all hell breaks loose. _______________________________________________________________________ To watch those series, you have to discard the following concerns: 1) cliche art -- and it is not universally likeable; 2) everybody visually is nearly a clone of other characters -- sometimes it is not easy to remember who is who; 3) distinct cliche archetype roles in relationships -- might be insulting to actual LGBT pairs (though this show is not for them but for female audience); 4) a lot of smokers -- repulsive as it is propaganda of often times lethal habit. Those are part of the formulae; if you are going into this genre, you have to accept that. (My point is, however, is that the appeal of this project would be wider if it would be free of those limitations.) |
