All the relationships and Mob’s reactions to them in Absolute BL AKA Zettai BL ni Naru Sekai vs Zettai BL ni Naritakunai Otoko AKA A Man Who Defies The World of BL.
I Need You to Kill (2017)
“But I’m not worried about my virginity, because I’m just a side character.”
Absolute BL AKA Zettai BL ni Naru Sekai vs Zettai BL ni Naritakunai Otoko AKA (Japan) Ep 1 dropped March 27. I found subs under A Man Who Defies The World of BL.
IT’S FUCKING HILARIOUS.
No, like, really! It’s great.
It’s Japan making fun of us, but also itself for having started this absolute dumpster fire of joy that is BL. It’s truly a thing of parody gold. Gah, it’s so good.
Basically Mob has figured out he’s a side character (extra AKA mobu) in the BL world (along with his family), so he doesn’t mind being trapped in a BL universe because he figures he’s never going to get his own story. He likes being ignored and isn’t gay.
Only then his younger brother (played by Goto Yutaro from Cherry Magic) gets a confession from his BFF. Mob realized that the BL world is trending towards the trope of “the ordinary bottom” and now he’s at risk.
Which of course means he going to turn into a tsundere uke but one that is actually totally aware of what he’s doing.
He must defy the BL world!
So he buys a ton of yaoi and starts researching all the tropes so he can avoid them. But now, he’s reading yaoi all the time. So he’s kinda into it and...
You know the drill? It’s one of those. The more he tries to avoid an inevitable future fate the more he does to bring that fate about, even hurry it along. Or does he? Maybe that’s also a play on us and him.
So this show is also joking about fandom’s propensity to fall in love with side characters, even if those characters have very little personality and screen time. Mob is trying so hard not to become the main character, but of course, we are all watching him already BE the main character. Which he also has to be aware of, because he’s talking to us about it.
It’s so meta. This glorious self aware reluctant hero trope. Breaking the 4th wall constantly, almost defiantly.
Honestly the 70s dancing intro song alone made me cry with laughter.
(Although I would have made the hair a lot worse.)
Okay I just watched ‘a man who defies the world of BL’ and THERE NEEDS TO BE A SEASON 2! What is it so funny for??? Like seriously omg. And KIKUCHI- HE LOOKS LIKE A DEER OH WHAT A SWEET GUY 😭. Mob was great and the intro song is something I’ll never get over
CACKLES!
YEEESSSSSSS!!!!!
We love them so much.
And wasn’t that last line ultra meta?
Like... there may be a season 2. Or there may not be.
Or they might be just asking that question because that is all fandom ever asks at the end of the first season of a good BL.
In which case, by asking the question of us first, they are, in fact creating the most perfect ending EVER because the question is (dah dah dah dum)...
ITS OWN ANSWER!
I mean that’s some existential shit right there.
Well this came out of nowhere...
