A How to Guide for your 23453675651th Itazura na Kiss-u Love in Tokyo marathon: ep6

Hihi~ If anyone is wondering, no, I have not forgotten our mischievously kissing darlings.   Actually, I’ve watched the episode twice and I can’t be the only one.  We’ve gotta attack the episode again from the just barely melting wax figure Irie-kun’s pov, right?
ep1-ep5 is here.  That was a translation of an awesome most observant baidu dearie with a bit of my input.  This time I’ll try it myself, this episode is just so brimming with Irie is in love but wanna hide it goodness.

Jang Ok Jung 12

Oh, what to do with you drama?!  You have dashed my hopes to be anything good with one definitive episode, and now there are rare intermittent scenes reminiscing your old self.

Then, just when I’m watching you, relatively calm and detached for self-preservation, with only one furrowed brow most of the time, writersshi you decided you couldn’t hold your TAE in.   *TAE has nothing to do with the lovely KTH, think opposite, some form of total, massive explosion of the very unsavory bio kind*

On My List: Upcoming Fluffy Chinese Periods

Mulan is FINALLY getting a possible air date ‘soon’.  Soon *just read a news article it’ll be June*.  At least we have a cable channel attached and leaking out a proper trailer.  I’m taking it with a sea of salt since I’ve seen loverboy’s drama Ad Mania to air 2 eps and then evaporated from the face of the earth for no reason WHATSOEVER, STILL.  So unless there are full episodes by the truckload leaked out on the interweb, I’ll keep my squealing at a controllable level.  Somewhat.

May Updates on Yuan Hong

Updates on Loverboy,  ie the slashy pretty thing born to write or live in a BL fanfic.

He is still busy on the set of his Manguo spy romance drama in SH somewhere, somewhere close enough to go eat at Fount, HuGe’s fancy schmancy J resto, where YH is known as its ladyboss.  The filming should end in June.  There is a rumor circling some producer is contacting him and HuGe to be in a modern drama together.  Rumor.  But let me tell you something:

WANTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!

It always started innocent enough, a fangirl snapped a pic with him at the restaurant gushing about how nice he is.  The official weibo of the restaurant joked under the thread, ‘Boss said:  Eats it all up…so you will have the energy to clean the pots and pans!

Itazura na Kiss: Love in Tokyo shout-out

The CutestThingEver is nothing but this fandom.

I won’t be able to watch 6 like the rest of the world with abating breath at the edge of seat I bet with snacks and heart-shaped chocolates in hand.    This is such a sweet shoujo drama I am somehow cherishing it, savoring it.  How many of us are also rereading the manga?  It really gets under my skin how precious this is.

This is their shout-out to the English speaker audience, and of course Yuki will be speaking his cute english.   Just the OTP being themselves is cute enough but Kin-chan is totally holding his own being the third wheel we can’t help cheering, ‘Ganbette!! *pompoms*’, not for getting the girl, but find his deserving happiness.
