2 new BLCD announcements that made me excited:
Contradict, Suzuki Ryouta x Satou Takuya. Firefighters, rivals to lovers. [x]
Ai no Ondo wo Oshiete yo, Satou Takuya x Chiba Shoya, Sugar daddy x sugar baby. [x]
I read both manga in preparation (hopefully I'll get to listen to both BLCDs).
The firefighters one was super hot. At first I thought I'd prefer a reversed (seiyuu) couple, but after reading the manga I realized it's perfect the way it is. Can't wait to hear Ryouta in this *-*
The sugar daddy one was quite sad but also cute. I'm always happy to get more ChibaSho in BL <3
Celebrating this cutie!
Now that I'm talking about Idolish x Lads,
For everyone who plays lads with the JP voices, here's Taku chan (Zayne's Seiyuu) speaking Uchinaaguchi (Okinawa dialect) 😭🩵
Drunk Zayne speaking in Uchinaaguchi/ Kansai ben would make me hop from excitement and then I'd cry

Review Proper
I'm not sure what's gonna end first: the series or my fucking life.
As much as I love Saezuru, it's gone on for so long that it's starting to get old literally and figuratively. You know, I wouldn't even be mad if Yoneda Kou ended the series by killing Yashiro off in 6. 7 is still well-written to a point and the BLCD did deserve to rank second AGAIN in chil-chil 2022, but I'm not sure about the future of this series (it wasn't nominated in 2023 tho which is one of the few good things about 2023's).
I say a lot of things, but I'm still invested in vol. 7 & 8.
I don't know who I'm jealous of, BUT THAT SHOULD BE ME! This scene is in vol 8, not 7, but I wanted to include it anyway.
I do agree that Saezuru portrayal of the whole yakuza deal is the realest 'cause happy endings over there are quite rare, but this isn't a novel that comes out in one go. Doesn't help that June is ass. I've heard from several friends who've read the latest releases that it feels like it's lost its way and that just makes me sad. I'm still hopeful tho.🤧
As I've already stated, this placed second in 2022's awards. I mean, it's Saezuru. Frontier doesn't spare a penny for it lmao. All the major characters are voiced, and they managed to bring the A-listers back again. Sometimes, I forget that Saezuru is actually based on a manga whenever I listen to the BLCDs 'cause the production is just that good.
Shingaki slayed as usual. I've said this many times before, but no matter how bad or how well he does in another role, he will always be Yashiro. I just came from Tsunaida and we're in the middle of a Rei event in Nu:carnival, so I would expect myself to adjust to Yashiro, but I didn't need any of that lmao. Yashiro is truly Shingaki's magnum opus. I'm not at all surprised that he placed 3rd best seiyuu for Yashiro. Deserved.
Speaking of Nu:carnival, I will forever be obsessed with Yashiro's relationship with the other characters aside from Doumeki. Nanahara's voiced by my one true love, Okitsu, but like Yashiro, I love him for his character and not his voice. It is nice having the other veterans in here with him, too. The slut trio is complete with Daddy Complex SatoTaku, Boss Ass Chaser Okitsu, and Damel in Distress Shingaki. #BLESS I want Kamiya to end up with Nanahara.
I haven't heard Wacchan in years HAHAHAHAHA. His Doumeki is still amazing as always. My issues with the story aside, I'm really looking forward to his "break" in vol. 8. EEEEEEE
Special mention to my Ryuuzaki and Miyake Kenta who made their comebacks here too. I missed him so much! LMAO
The BLCD is pretty accurate to the... magazine at least, but June does sell the translated tanko (fortunately). Like the previous installments, reading the manga while listening to the BLCD was so smooth because it was so accurate. Now 7 does end in a cliffhanger, so I don't really advise listening to it if you still don't have 8. But if cliffhangers aren't an issue for you, then break a leg!
happy birthday, takuchan! 🫶

【Star Sign】 ”Self Introduction” Shiratori Kazuki (CV: Furukawa Makoto) ver.
Kazuki: Hello, I'm Kazuki Shiratori. Um, what else should I say?
Ritsu: Don't ask that after you've started.
Yosuke: Yeah, yeah, greetings from the super famous person who usually doesn't need self-introductions. Well done.
Souta: Yosuke, don't say that!!
Minato: Wow, I thought you'd say something more sparkling.
Kazuki: Well.. I'm good at that kind of acting, but...
Rui: In Kazuki-kun's case, you're the kind of actor who needs the right material, otherwise, it doesn't work out, I think.
Souta: Especially when it comes to roles from the original source material, the accuracy is incredible.
Kazuki: Haha, thank you. So, Ritsu, what do you think?
Ritsu: About what?
Kazuki: What do you think of me?
Yosuke: Ugh, gross!
Souta: Yosuke!!
Ritsu: I won't deny your acting skill, but in Kazuki's case, you’re not particularly good at acting, and it's more accurate to say that you don’t have anything else you're good at beside acting.
Kazuki: Huh? Nothing? Really? Nothing at all?
Ritsu: So, tell us specifically what you're good at.
Kazuki: Uh, well, um...
Souta: Umm.. sometimes you don't even know what you're good at or what you like!
Yosuke: Come on, there are plenty of things you're good at. Like breaking stuff, breaking electronics, endlessly cluttering your room, and your cooking taste horrible.
Souta: That’s you're just insulting him!
Yosuke: No, I'm praising him! Normal people can't even come close to imitating him.
Minato: It's like he allocated all of his stats into his acting talent.
Rui: Haha, as long as he doesn't even enter the kitchen…
Kazuki: Um…. sorry for the mess.
