Synopsis:

What happens when two rival directors who hate each other's guts are forced to share one roof? And what if one of them has a secret he's been harboring for years? Throw in a shared love of movies, BL manga, and an accidental kiss, and you've got the next heart-pumping love story in Midorigaoka High and the sequel to Twilight Out of Focus 1. Jin Kikuchihara, third-year director, main actor, and president of the film club, and second-year director Giichi Ichikawa see eye-to-eye on very little. Jin is flashy, flirty, and focused on keeping everyone happy, while Giichi expects the best from himself and others, and will compromise nothing to see his vision through. Constantly at each other's necks, the two can hardly stand to be in the same club. But what will happen when family trouble forces them to live in the same room? Will their shared interests bring them closer as friends, push them further apart as rivals, or something else entirely?

Review Proper

I love Tasogare Outfocus, but this is actually my favorite Janome.

The second installment curse strikes again!

UGHHHHHHH THIS WAS SO WHOLESOME. Don't get me wrong, Tasogare Outfocus is written pretty decently, but I really don't like how Janome just glossed over Hisashi's SA and grooming like that. It reminds me a lot of Etude vol. 1. I can still get over Etude vol. 1 'cause it's not that uncommon to see in sports and Ichi-san's deal with Futami was given some closure in 2, but given how short Tasogare Outfocus was, Hisashi felt like he just lmao byed his teacher. 😔Doesn't help that it kinda doesn't matter anymore in overlap even though it hasn't been long since it ended. Is my son Hisashi really okay now? 🥹

I'm old, so DK BL doesn't appeal to me that much anymore. It's also hard to find good DK rivalries nowadays that aren't just about fucking or delinquents. Zanzou Slow Motion, however, just checked all the right boxes for the category: simple, no drama, and no loose ends. That coupled with Janome's element of touch?

And can we talk about this monologue?

Ugh.

I will say Jin's suspenders, Ichikawa's snatched waist, and the ABO shout-out greatly influenced my decision too. Y'all should get suspended in high school, not wear suspenders!

Onto the technicalities...

I don't think I've heard these two co-star before (or I just don't remember), so I was a bit skeptical especially 'cause last I heard Makonyan in a DK was in, well... Given as BLCD!Ritsu. And where else did we hear Yuuma star in a DK too? Yuuma as Anime!Ritsu. We just had Given Anime!Ritsu in Tasogare Outfocus being somewhat friends with Ichikawa and now we have BLCD!Ritsu (thanks to ecargmura for catching this!) trying to romance him. They used very different tones for Ritsu, but the vibe was the same overall. THEY'RE THE SAME PERSON. Makonyan and Nakamo also played tops in the last works I heard of them (Makonyan as Takaba in Kurui Naku and Nakamo as Yakumo in Nu:carnival), so I was concerned about a lot of things. Thankfully, however, instead of Makonyan going for his Ritsu tone or his lighter Kimitte Yatsu for a more youthful vibe, he went all shounen in here lmaooo.

His bwakame was so funny it reminded me of this:

I love roasting Makonyan more than any other seiyuu out of fondness, but I'm really proud of how far he's gone. He's gotten so much better in his delivery, and it's obvious in his budding anime career, too.

But...

I didn't expect there would be improvements in his bedding techniques too...

What the fuck was that? HAHAHAHAHAHA. WAIT. No, y'all don't understand. I have most of this man's r-18 otome CDs and BLCDs, and I have never heard him this... this hot before???? Jin is such a smooth flirt, so I had some expectations on the delivery, but FURUKAWA MAKOTO HISSES. HE HISSES!!! SIR IS THIS APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOUR FOR A HIGH SCHOOL BOY??? THEY DON'T EVEN SHOW THEM DO THE DO FOR MORE THAN A MINUTE??? WHERE WAS THE NEED?!

PUTS THE GODDAMN FU IN FURUKAWA MAKOTO ALRIGHT!

First it was Ono Yuuki, now it's Makonyan. Is Nakamo's ass really that good that his tops go all in???

I admittedly don't have a lot to say about Nakamo because that man always slays. I was afraid that Makonyan would overpower him during their Netflix and chill, but as soon as I had that thought, Nakamo pushed back like??? THEM SHAKIRA HIPS DON'T LIE!

HOW DO I LEGALLY MARRY GINGER RECORDS???

I didn't read the scan or the official English release 'cause I actually had the raws, so I can't vouch for the translation. As for faithfulness to the manga, however, I need to stress that there were a lot of rearranged events and cut dialogue. One notable instance was Ichikawa's message for Jin. It was placed after their kiss in the last chapter, so I believe that these changes are quite significant. It is still possible to read the manga while listening to the BLCD, but I suggest reading the manga once first so you're aware of which pages you need to jump to.

Chil-chil Awards 2022 was a scam 'cause this wasn't nominated for ANYTHING! This might actually just be my favorite BLCD of 2021... and Makonyan was my favorite actor in this series so far. OKITSU AND MAKONYAN REALLY SWITCHED IN THIS LOG HAHAHAHA. Makonyan and Nakamo at least won in my heart. 😌 Definitely listen to this if you're a Makonyan fan or if you're a fan of the series in general. It's also perfect if you're looking for something light and sweet but immersive at the same time. Chesk gives this a 9/10! Only the third 9 after Sonna ni and KD!

As a general rule, a lot of characters who had bit roles in the past got more bit roles due to episodic nature of the show. Because ZEXAL had a huge budget, a lot of high profile actors are here for bit roles as glorified cameos.

[yaoisex]

Takumi Yasuaki announced his marriage, Hino (was one of the seiyuu who) replied and congratulated him.

My mind: “Hmm... I KNOW they’ve done something together except for the Given BLCDs... hmm...”

*Insert Pepe Silvia meme*

5 seconds later - “OH YEAH, THAT” XD (Taishou Mebiusline)

So let’s remember together that glorious scene~~ 🎧

[beautifulbutdoomed]

So... I know people are more hyped for new manga chapters and incoming movie, but why nobody told me there is gonna be Given drama CD vol. 5 on February 25th?! Annnnd, I can see there will be two versions, one is described as "live edition", same as Given vol. 2. Does it mean Saitou Souma will sing heart breaking song again? I know I need to have this CD. My half empty bank account is ready.

I-chu: SAVIOR Lyrics

Kanji, romaji and English translation for SAVIOR by Alchemist

(kanji source)

静寂を翻し　快楽の扉を　今　撃ち抜く合図だ 狂乱の道導　長嘆に身を震わせ　悲愴のNOISE

暗い闇を舞う煙に　焦げた薫りを纏わせて I’m just (A) SAVIOR

抗え　正義(ひかり)よ　無力な虚言(たわごと)になれ 白日の夢にその身を預けた罪を嘲笑い給え 孤高のヒトゲノム　ミクロの希望(そら)を葬れ 憐れみの森で跪くまま　祈りを捧げるがいい 今こそすべてを　BREAK OUT！！

Monochroのマタドール　Anachroなアタノールで最後のDanceを 表情持たぬ道化師(ピエロ)　氷上浮かぶcielを彷徨うwaltz

罪と罰に操られた　サイトキネシス　法則(ルール)を壊せ I’m just (A) SAVIOR

誘え　憎悪(いかり)よ　無数の星屑を撃て 痛みを知らない無邪気な瞳に　影のveil覆い尽くせ 原子(アトム)の覚醒　Fakeな夢(そら)を焦がして 漆黒の涙　流し続けて　赦しを求めるがいい 今こそ　その瞬間(とき)　BREAK DOWN！！

抗え　正義(ひかり)よ　無力な虚言(たわごと)になれ 白日の夢にその身を預けた罪を嘲笑い給え 孤高のヒトゲノム　ミクロの希望(そら)を葬れ 憐れみの森で跪くまま　祈りを捧げるがいい 今こそすべてを　BREAK OUT！！

English

Reversing the silent, now is the sign to pierce through the door to pleasure A guidepost to madness, a deep sigh makes my body shiver with a pathetic NOISE

Wearing a scent burnt by the smokes dancing in the darkness I’m just (A) SAVIOR

Resist, light! Become a powerless lie Ridicule your sin of entrusting your body to a daydream Consign your genome of isolation to a micro sky Just offer your prayers while kneeling in a forest of pity Now is time to BREAK OUT everything!!

A monochromatic matador does his last Dance in an athanor of anachronism An expressionless clown, a waltz loiters on the ciel reflected on ice

Cytokinesis manipulated by both sin and punishment, break the rules! I’m just (A) SAVIOR

Tempt me, anger! Shoot at the countless stardusts Cover your innocent eyes that don't know pain with a shadow veil The atom's awakening burns the Fake sky Now is time to BREAK DOWN that moment!!

Resist, light! Become a powerless lie Ridicule your sin of entrusting your body to a daydream Consign your genome of isolation to a micro sky Just offer your prayers while kneeling in a forest of pity Now is time to BREAK OUT everything!!

真壁選手もいらしてたから、失礼を承知でお写真をお願いしたら快く承諾してくださったよ！ Since Makabe Togi was there, I asked whether if it was okay to have a photo with him and he said yes!

断られないかな…とビビって、梅原さんや内匠を誘ってお願いに行ったんだけど、全員に丁寧に挨拶してくださったよ。 I wondered if they’d turn me away... which made me nervous, but Umehara-san, Yasuaki Takumi and others invited me over and everyone kindly said their hellos.(?)

虎の二人もありがタイガー！ Thank you-tiger to the two tigers!

Tamaru Atsushi

Masuda Toshiki

Yashiro Taku

Synopsis: Adaptation of the fifth volume of the series of the same name.

Review Proper

Why am I so weak when it comes to Mafuyu and Uenoyama’s relationship??? Not even a few minutes in and they already show Uenoyama’s anxiety. I JUST WANT MY CHILDREN TO BE HAPPY. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO IN ORDER FOR GUSARI TO JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE??? This is quite ironic seeing as how I was praising Gusari for adding some realism into their relationship in 4. 😂 But I’m honestly so beat up from Itsuka Koi ni Naru Made and Saezuru that I wanted my heart to take a break. Who the hell even made this log list and why the hell is Itsuka Koi ni Naru, Saezuru, and Given right next to each other??? I was initially going to put SuzuMinta’s works before Saezuru and Given, but did I really want to put Saezuru and Given before Therapy Game and Love Nest? That’s gonna be total heart ache after total heart ache! 

Anyway, the voice work and sound direction here was phenomenal as usual. Shout out to MSG for most of the sound work, Misa Sasa for the Ugetsu’s violin, and Yohei Matsui for the lyrics. It’s so sad that all the cast and staff of the BLCD were never brought in for that anime adaptation. I mean, what was the point in getting rid of all of them? Everyone absolutely loved the series and working with each other, so I don’t think any of them would ever refuse appearing in the anime, busy schedule or not. 

Scratch that. I’m gonna say it. I absolutely hated how they scrapped all of the VAs. Where was the need? Are my boys not good enough for the anime adaptation??? When they’ve got a solid fan base that’s about four years old now??? Is Saitou Souma not good enough of a singer for you that you replaced him with some inexperienced VA to voice Mafuyu instead? I know that prods tend to hold cast auditions for anime adaptations, and I don’t have any beef with Yano Shougo and I’m sure he did his best, but the audacity of Blue Lynx to even hold them and not pick Saitou Souma...

I’ve heard the anime version of Fuyu no Hanashi and I dislike how it’s so polished and commercialized when Given’s just an indie band with an inexperienced vocalist. Who y’all fooling? And the lyrics...it completely took away the most important point of the song which is the “fingers getting cold” which is a very vital part of the series because the act of hands slipping away is featured in ALL of the characters’ relationships. If they changed Yoru no Mukou in the movie, I will be livid. Now, I personally don’t care about the anime cast using different tones for their characters so long as they are able to bring their characters to life just as well, but were they really able to do that? Mafuyu was supposed to have “a beautiful husky voice” as per Gusari, but Yano Shougo was more light and sharp which makes his sound less mature and more emotional as compared to Saitou Souma’s more distant and low-key tormented Mafuyu. I definitely prefer Saitou Souma’s soft yet heavy tone over Yano’s because I think that it encapsulates the manga Mafuyu more, but Yano Shougo’s was decent enough for a rookie actor regardless. Yuuma and Nakazawa Masatomo did well in their respective roles even though the former is higher and the latter is lower in pitch than their BLCD counterparts. Yuuma had nailed Makonyan’s Uenoyama down to a degree without going down to his pitch which was nice—UNLIKE SOMEONE. What was the point in making Egu try and replicate Hino Satoshi’s obviously more lower voice??? Egu’s Akihiko might be two to three pitches lower than his Kaburagi and you can clearly hear him strain his throat when he does it—and he goes flat while he does it, too! Please stop making Egu do that, that can’t possibly be good for his throat. I don't want him to go through what Okamoto Nobuhiko did. If Blue Lynx wanted that type of Akihiko, then why didn’t they just cast the original cast in the first place??? If y’all retained all of the Saezuru cast members, then why couldn’t you do the same for Given???

UGH. Way to ruin a franchise. Let’s not even get started with the general animation.

Anyway, back onto the topic of the BLCD, all of my boys slayed their parts as usual. Looking at the cast now, I just feel so proud that they’ve all made names for themselves in the BL industry and have blossoming careers ever since the first BLCD. I would’ve never guessed that Saitou Souma and Makonyan would rise to the top of the industry in just a short span of time. Man, I’m getting emotional. They’re like my children whom I’ve seen grow and robbed right before my very eyes. 😭😭😭 I feel like it was just yesterday when Saitou Souma made his very first appearance as Noiz’ or Hino Satoshi’s younger brother in the DMMD special CDs and now he’s chil-chil’s top 1 BL seiyuu. 😭😭😭 Bless. 

No, we’re not going to talk about Haruki and Akihiko’s relationship here because you really can’t talk sense into someone’s who’s marupok. Anong siya pa den sa hule? MAHINANG NILALANG. If he’s happy being a clown, then let him be a clown. Let’s just hope that Akihiko doesn’t hurt him anymore (even though he’s said that he might hurt him again in the future). 

Red flags: *exists*

Haruki:

This adaptation stuck closely to the manga, so reading it along would be easy. Yoru no Mukou was amazing. I was tearing up while listening to it and I think I like it more than Fuyu no Hanashi (Saitou Souma’s version), but Fuyu no Hanashi is just a different sting yo. These days I just find myself listening to both just to cry myself to sleep at night. HAHAHAHA. I definitely recommend getting the Live Edition instead of just the normal version because you just have to listen to the whole song!
