This week, we’re diving into Our Youth, the Japanese BL that unexpectedly became our favorite topic yet.

The tension, the silence, the glances, the pain — Our Youth delivered all of it, and then quietly wrecked us. We unpack Jin Minase and Haruki Hirukawa’s dynamic, model student meets school delinquent, and explore how their unlikely bond forms around empathy, unspoken grief, and teenage pressure

We break down the cinematography, pace, and symbolism, from the heavy topics about Haruki's life scene to the lingering stares that spoke louder than words, and how each cinematic choice made everything feel too real . Fans have called it “cinematic, poetic,” and “a story that could’ve been the finale every episode”, and we agree.

This episode is unforgettable — tender, heart-wrenching, and lingering long after it ends.
So grab your tissues, your snacks… and let’s wave goodbye together (even though we’re not ready to let go).
