Once again, doing my part in keeping the out fandom breathing by posting once a year. I forgot the other characters so I'm re-reading in hopes that I'll remember them.

Makoto Katsuragi, a man working for an advertising agency, has so far led a perfect private and work life. However, that all comes crashing down in an instant when he loses everything he holds dear. In the midst of his despair, he drunkenly climbs onto the ledge of a tall building and is about to jump, when… “If you’re going to throw away your life…let me have it.” He is saved by these words offered by the sudden appearance of Ryuji Yoden, and decides to do exactly as Ryuji says. From the moment Makoto awakens in Ryuji’s room, his daily life of retraining begins, giving away not only his body but his heart…

Review Proper

Uhh.

Hmm.

???????

If y'all know me and or have read my older posts, you'll know I hate this type of plot. However, I had to listen to this 'cause the last I heard of Morikawa Toshiyuki was in 2021, and Nojima Hirofumi in... 2019?! *goes into existential panic*. It doesn't help that these two were Shigure-san and Haru in Nights Before Night. I wanted my happy ending with them to happen even though it was nearly impossible since these two are already inactive in the BL industry. Having the two of them come back and co-star in a BLCD again is just too good to be true... and I was right. I didn't expect them to come in for one of the sketchiest things in the market. I really don't know what Frontier is smoking, having all the budget for veterans like these only to put them in weird projects.

Biases and triggers aside, I think that Sei no Gekiyaku failed to deliver what it was set to convey. It tried so hard to be deep and psychological in the beginning, but it's like sensei just threw that out the window in chapter 3. It reminds me a lot of Lala no Kekkon and Derail. What was all that build-up for, then? I'm gonna say it. If you wanna use Stockholm Syndrome, then commit. This is also true with the discarded BDSM. I don't like these themes, but damn, do I feel bad for them 'cause they all felt pointless in the end.

Anyway, onto the topic of the BLCD itself...

You'll miss a lot of things if you haven't read the manga beforehand. There was a lot of added and dropped content that was understandable since no other characters apart from the two leads were in the BLCD. But that also led to Ryuji's older brother's presence being missing in the BLCD. Although Ryuji mentions him in the BLCD often enough, the manga just shows Ryuji's trauma better since we get to see him constantly haunting Ryuji. I'm not sure if they've changed censorship laws on BLCDs because the same thing happened in Kuroe to Mesu, but the BLCD was less graphic than the manga. Take that part where Ryuji rapes Makoto in the bathtub. You can hear Makoto take a toy in, but you'll never know it was a dildo mount whatchamacallit if you didn't read the manga.

There's also that part when Ryuji loses it when Makoto smiles when they were fucking. Nojinii does chuckle then, but you wouldn't pick that up if you didn't know what happened in the manga. It might've been better if Ryuji loudly thought: "Oh crap, he smiled."

The original plot was already badly paced, but the BLCD was even worse lmao. The tracks don't even start the same way the manga chapters do. I really don't recommend listening to this if you haven't heard the story and are a beginner to Japanese. Speaking of reading, idk what happened to futekiya, but the translation progressively got worse towards the end of the manga. I also read the scanned version of this when it was still unlicensed, but it was also a bit off.

Now for the light in the tunnel: the voice work.

I tried to fight it. I really did.

But I'm always going to be Moririn trash.

Don't get me wrong, Morimori did spectacular here (duh). But I really hated Ryuji that I initially had no thoughts other than respect towards his voice acting here... until he whispered in Track 4, that is. At some point, I just wanted to throw Nojinii out of the picture 'cause THAT SHOULD BE ME???!!! I'LL SLURP THIS SPAGHETTI OFF THE FLOOR ON ALL FOURS FOR YOU, MORIKAWA TOSHIYUKI!

My god. Frontier sure has taste in VAs but not in stories.

He was just-ugh. I wonder how he does that. Like in Tadaima, he makes you feel like he's talking to you rather than his co-star wtf. I was gasping for air goddammit. This man is a danger to society.

As for Nojinii, I actually thought that his voice was too high for Makoto in the beginning. It was almost in the same range as his Haru, and I imagined Makoto's voice to be lower. It did grow on me, though. I missed my bottom Nojinii. Of course, he did excellent as well. His fear was really believable in the first tracks that I just feel so bad for him 'cause he needed to throw that all away. 🙄

Man, I can't help but think that Morimori and Nojinii were wasted on this work. Again, it's already a miracle to have them back, so this might be the last time they ever pair up again. And for fucking Sei no Gekiyaku? Part of the reason why I stopped listening to BLCDs was 'cause I wouldn't know how to cope if I saw more of my favorite older VAs leaving the industry. That's also why I stopped doing releases lists. Hype around BLCDs has steadily been on the decline and if you haven't noticed, there's been considerably fewer releases too. The manga scene isn't doing well either. I'm just so afraid it'll all run out someday. *crisis*

Going back on topic, I do not recommend this BLCD. If you're into psychological and BDSM, I would look into Harada or Kabukichou Bad Trip instead. If you're a fan of Morimori and Nojinii, I still wouldn't recommend it if the theme isn't your thing. Let's just re-listen to Nights Before Night and suffer instead. 👍

2023 ASOOT Hunger Games Aftermath

SPOILERS FOR THE 2023 ASOOT HUNGER GAMES AHEAD

PA: KANADE OTONOKOJI HAS BEEN ELMINATED BY EITO KOBAYASHI!

(Urggghh....that wasn't very pleasant....I was so out of it during that Hunger Game. Why did I let the worst Lucky Student ever kill me?)

(Seriously its one thing to have Makoto Naegi...Nagito Komaeda...heck even Yuki Maeda kill me, but instead some loser OC? And I can't even get revenge when he gets eliminated since he's not allowed in this blog!)

PA: FUMIO FUJIMORI HAS BEEN ELIMINATED BY HAJIME HINATA!

(Oooo Hajime killed someone, that's gonna break him~)

(In all fairness, I think Hibiki being killed off so soon is what made me lose focus...I've been through so many Hunger Games...but losing my precious sister always hurts. I can never focus, maybe that's why I got Kobayashi-kun to kill me-)

PA: EITO KOBAYASHI HAS BEEN ELIMINATED BY SETSUKA CHIEBUKURO!

(And that brings a smile to my face! My killer didn't get to go away scott-free and best of all, its my Prime timeline victim who does it, take that!)

*Eventually the Hunger Games conclude*

PA: THE WINNER IS ETSU DEGUICHI!

(Seriously? That gloomy mortician girl won? Talk about unfitting...oh well Review Anon has been messing up these Hunger Games a lot so this will probably go again and I can-)

Alright everyone! That one finally worked so firstly congratulations on the win Etsu and we can finally publish-

REVIEW ANON! I'M SO GONNA KILL YOU FOR THIS!

Oh look Nikei isn't happy with me. Well isn't THAT new. And we have been over this, I'm already dead so you cannot kill me.

So what's your rant of the moment gonna be about?

Okay so let me preface by saying that normally, I don't mind these Hunger Games. Sure, they aren't the best things out there but its a good way for me to get stress out of my system, and besides there are some people who I wouldn't mind shooting in the face without consequences.

If you know what I mean.

That doesn't answer my question.

But this one...this one...you REALLY crossed the line with. And I don't care if you are already dead, I'm gonna make you wish your original death, whatever it was, banished you to the afterlife!

Okay, okay let's see what's got your notebook all twisted....let's see Nikei killed 2 people this Hunger Game. The first one is Mori Miwa, someone you barely know and thus wouldn't have any moral qualms killing with a sickle, and the second kill is....Marin Mizuta who got accidently knocked off a cliff while in a knife fight with you...

Oh....oh no.....

You sick motherfucking ghost...you made murder my baby sister...and because of that you are gonna PAY for this!

W-Wait I need to see if Etsu has anything to say-

*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*

SHIT! I NEED TO BOLT!

*Review Anon then flies through a wall in order to escape*

GET FUCKING BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!

*Nikei then takes off in hot pursuit of Review Anon and charges down the hallway, trying to find the rooms Review Anon is phasing through*

(That's what you get for running 5 Hunger Games in a row.)

*Eventually some more time has passed and Kanade is still in the simulation room deep in thought.*

(Okay so while this isn't the only Hunger Game on, this actually works out well for me.)

(After all Review Anon had 4 failed Hunger Games, and while I didn't win any of them, there were 3 other winners, because one of them won twice. Maybe I can seek them out and forge an alliance?)

(Yes Yomiuri-kun is hunting her down now, but that's not good enough, she needs to suffer lots more for doing this. So many people here hate her Hunger Games so finding people who want Review Anon knocked down a peg would be a clinch)

(Now then...who were the winners? Well the first one is gonna be hard as firstly there is history between us, Prime timeline history, and I have a horrid feeling she wouldn't want to-)

???: Hey Kana, what's wrong? You seem out of it.

Huh?

You haven't moved for a while. Wasn't your Hunger Game death that bad?

Not really...after all allowing yourself to be killed by some loser who only became an Ultimate because he won some lottery sucks, but there are worse deaths.

Besides you killed the guy who eliminated me in the first place, so if anything I owe you one.

Right...I guess I did, didn't I?

Also if you have been keeping track of my reviews I have some…interesting ideas how Mizuta is gonna pan out. Like all of the times I theorise about stuff here, it’s either completely spot on or as far out as Makoto’s fears he’s gonna turn into Emina. Especially as I can safely say I’ve been taken for a wild ride regarding one said theory in this arc. - Review Anon

//I look forward to seeing your predictions on that, I have to say : P

WARNING: OUT SPOILERS

Mi amor por ellos comenzó en forma de chiste porque me era gracioso que Toshi fuera prácticamente su acosador, pero ahora me da tanta ternura que comencé a tomarme esto en serio. Dios. Esto es estar enamorado.
