Re: Secrets you don't want to make...

[(Anonymous)]

I enjoy BL manga but I hate when they make live action versions of series I like because the actors never look anything like the original characters.

Especially when one or more of the characters is meant to be super tall and athletic, OR super short and skinny, and instead they cast carbon copies of what in the West would be considered incredibly average twinks for every role who have the exact same build and height as every single other actor in the show.

I can't blame them for it because I imagine the available pool of gay or willing to play gay actors to choose from in the first place is tiny, but it's like having someone's terrible fancasting come to life every time.

The only live action BL I’ve seen is Given and I feel this way about all the actors except for the guy they cast as Ritsuka. I can see where they kinda tried, but I’m still not a fan.

They're all like that tbh. I've yet to see a casting that felt remotely accurate.

It's even worse if it's something as simple and cosmetic as the character in the series canonically has bleached or dyed hair, as in people remark upon it and it being a social thing in Japan, and they don't even bother to do that. IDK I want to see the characters not like random interchangeable twinks that are playing the parts of characters that look nothing like them.

Do you have any particular adaptation in mind, for image reference purposes?

The one anon mentioned above is a good example tbh

like LOL did you even try. Their relative heights and builds are nowhere near what they're supposed to be. They all look like 25 years old and they're supposed to be like 18. At least bleach long hair dude's hair smh. And this is one with a relatively good production budget
