#my beautiful man season two

[invisiblegarters]

I can’t get over how we’re already seeing Hira thinking that he’s always one wrong move away from Kiyoi throwing him away, and Kiyoi trying to hold on to a boyfriend that seems to have one foot out the door. 

The way he pushes himself into Hira’s space in the quieter moments...it’s only episode one but that is not a dude who is looking for an excuse to end things. 

[invisiblegarters]

Okay this just makes me want more Kiyoi and Koyama interaction please.

Kiyoi and Koyama: SMASH App Bonus Clip [ENG SUB]

I got three requests to sub this today alone, so here you are😂

Translator's note below because I chose to localize part of their conversation.

TRANSLATORS NOTE UNDER THE CUT

I localized a bit of their conversation, and just in case some people with some Japanese knowledge noticed and wondered about it, I wanted to explain why the Japanese and English words technically don't match up.

For those who don't know what localization means, it's when a translation is made with the target audience in mind (here, English speakers/Western audience) and the translation of something therefore is changed from the LITERAL meaning, which might make no sense for the target audience, into a similar equivalent in the targeted culture/language. E.G when a translator changes the currency in a subtitle or when idioms are translated to an equivalent in the other language. An example is the English idiom "Nothing ventured, nothing gained", which in Japanese is "You will not get the tiger's cub without entering the tiger's den"). If localization is done well, then even if the words are not translated literally, the meaning is still intact.

When Koyama says "Just because there's no ring on it doesn't mean it's not real", the literal translation of his words are "Do you know of the concept that even if you're not registered officially as family, you're still in a common-law marriage?"

which... I figured really didn't make much sense to an English speaker with not much knowledge of Japanese culture. But it means that even if you're not lawfully wed, your relationship (as husband & wife) is still valid.

(ps. Kiyoi's literal response is "In that case, that's me").

I know I've been on about this for a while now and I'm being a hater but you're telling me SydCarmy was "always meant to be platonic" even though there are two seasons of writing making use of tried-and-true explicitly romantic tropes, themes and writing signals, and SydLuca is going to be romantic because...he was nice to her on screen for a few minutes?

I don't even care if people ship SydLuca, or if they just prefer it, but you can't honestly tell me that you believe Carmy was always meant to be a friend but Luca is an obvious love interest.

Just because Syd and Carmy haven't kissed or confessed their love to each other doesn't mean that isn't very obviously the direction this show is going. The Bear has already shown you who is endgame. It has shown you every episode of the show so far.

Honestly I really don't think The Bear fanbase understands this show or cares about these characters or the story being told here, which is unfortunate because this show is shockingly well-written in comparison to most shows right now, and we should be so grateful for it but all we're doing is complaining that the writers led us on by not making a ship canon fast enough. It's just. Sad.

"Have you ever seen [Barkov] fall? Has he ever fallen? He's never fallen his entire career!" "Uh—It's, uh, funny and I don't know if he'll care that I say this, but he's got those—he doesn't like the blades that you can snap in and out quickly. So when he needs to get his skates done in the middle of a game, he's gotta fully take off his skates, get 'em sharpened and retie them up—which is like one of the few guys in the league, I think, that still do that. So sometimes he'll have absolutely no edge, and he'll just find a way to, like, compensate and get through it—which is incredible." "That kind-of sucks though 'cuz that's like a bad dream to have. You're waiting on something else, like—even if the trainers just like snapped it back in or whatever, like maybe they had something different they can put in there. He probably wouldn't even know!" "[...] this guy's particular. He knows his game and he's goddamn good at it! And we don't say a word so!" "'Barky, we need you out there for the face off! There's two seconds left!'" "That's what I mean! He'll compensate and he'll still look better than all of us! Like if any of us had no edge like that, we'd be screwed, right? And he goes out there and does the Barky things that he does. We're all grateful for it! He's been getting me paid for 10 years now, so."

Did you see it? Did you see what happened to Hira in the second season finale of My Beautiful Man? DID YOU SEE IT!

I've written about Hira lowering himself around Kiyoi even when Kiyoi tries to make them equal, but look what happened to Hira from the first season to the end of the second:

OUR STALKER GOT UP! He rose! He lifted himself! Instead of Kiyoi having to lower himself, Hira finally GOT UP!

And Kiyoi changed too! The steps, which are a physical representation of ups and downs and power dynamics, played a crucial role in both seasons.

Do you see how Hira is sitting higher in the second season?! How Kiyoi handles the step conversations greatly changes between the seasons. In the first season, Kiyoi asks what would Hira do if someone told him that he had to tell Kiyoi's secret or die. When Hira answered that he would gladly die, Kiyoi called him creepy (affectionately).

In the second season, Kiyoi tells Hira that he LIKES who Hira is. He doesn't leave it open to interpretation. He lets Hira know that even if Hira thinks he is a pebble, he likes Hira. Kiyoi makes it clear he likes creepy, gross, pebble Hira.

Before they even sit down, Kiyoi points out that Hira isn't looking at him, and proceeds to move closer to Hira and rub his back. Hira still follows Kiyoi, but Hira is the first to get up in the second season after joking with Kiyoi compared to Kiyoi getting up the first season. Kiyoi is learning how to communicate, so Hira won't misunderstand, and Hira is learning to PICK HIMSELF UP first!

Hira also picked up the camera to take pictures of Kiyoi in the first season step conversation. In the second season, he remained looking at Kiyoi without the comfort of something remaining between them. Hira is learning to see the man in front of him, not the god he tries to capture.

This also leads to Kiyoi making his relationship with Hira clear in other spaces as well. In the first season, Hira was a stalker, then a classmate. In the second season, we saw Hira switch to being a fan, and possibly a friend. However, by the end, Kiyoi makes it clear exactly what Hira is to him - his boyfriend.

And finally, the damn duck! The first time we saw the duck, it was in the dirty water adrift and being pushed around. In the end of the second season, we see the duck in the sky, floating. In between these two moments, we see Kiyoi give Hira a duck, and Hira give a duck back to Kiyoi. They both started this series adrift and being pushed around by their school environment, but through the love they gave each other, they found their place. They are no longer the star and the stargazer. They are the entire sky with endless possibilities that can change shape each day.

They are not an idol and his stalker. They are not a god and a pebble. They are beautiful men.

I don't know what to say... everyone got a happy ending except the people who actually wanted a real revolution and had a cause for it... but it's not like we had much of their opinions on this I guess... also no final lez sex scene... tragic

[candied-cae]

I’m dripping in tears guys what the fuck

Episodes 4&5 my beloveds

You have devastated me

[allpromarlo]

ravens 12-3 and my fantasy team is in the final life is goooooooood

[invisiblegarters]

These dorks. I love them so much.

[bas-rouge]

What they don't warn you about dogs is that you'll fall head over heels for multiple breeds and breeders and individual dogs that you know you can Technically afford to have at once but know it would be irresponsible to raise two puppies together when you've never raised one yourself,

[inkskinned]

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.

ok caved watched bridgerton

[splickedylit]

Definitely unfortunate that anime-only Dungeon Meshi watchers will probably not have a chance to see the graph of the whole party swapped to different races partially because human Chilchuck's instant five o'clock stubble is hilarious but also because

halfling Senshi

(EDIT: I've read the whole manga, folks, I'm trying to be chill about spoilers for the anime only crowd. come on now lol)
