Japanese BL dramas/movies

The first five are dramas or movies that I recommend 100 percent, the ones after them have some flaws. The ones at the end of the list are the ones I haven’t yet watched.

  • His

    1. His

    Japanese Movie - 2020

    9.5

    So beautiful. rural area. Quiet. I love the atmosphere. Father-daughter relationship. Theoretically it's the second part of "His", but you can just watch this on its own.

    Japanese Movie - 2020

    8.5

    I love this so much. Beautifully shot, great acting. It’s a simple story, but it’s so relaxing. Without much drama, watching this makes you feel fuzzy and happy.

  • Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!
    8.5

    Really cute. The plot seems dumb at first but the characters are so cute. Even though there is no on-screen kiss, there was definitely a lot of chemistry between the main couple.

  • Seven Days: Monday - Thursday

    9. Seven Days: Monday - Thursday

    Japanese Movie - 2015

    I absolutely loooooove this! It’s older, so the hairstyles are really funny. I like the retro feeling. The characters are so cute. The pacing is very slow, but in a good way? Adapted from a manga.

  • Seven Days: Friday - Sunday

    10. Seven Days: Friday - Sunday

    Japanese Movie - 2015

    Second part of Seven Days.

  • Absolute BL

    13. Absolute BL

    Japanese Special - 2021, 1 episode

    Parody of bl tropes. I love the intro song. The first episodes were so funny, but after a while the premise gets old. Still a very nice watch. 

  • Boys Love 2

    14. Boys Love 2

    Japanese Movie - 2007

    Old school. Student/teacher relationship. Mature. Tension, drama, angst. Warning: suicide, rape. 

  • Pornographer

    15. Pornographer

    Japanese Drama - 2018, 6 episodes

    7.5

    Mature. But this isn’t as scandalous as the title sounds.

  • Does the Flower Bloom?

  • Ai no Kotodama

    18. Ai no Kotodama

    Japanese Movie - 2008

    Old school. 

  • The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese

    19. The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese

    Japanese Movie - 2020

    8.0

    Mature. Infidelity. Maybe I’m weird but I kind of liked this movie. The relationship is very toxic and all of the characters are kind of assholes, but it was very emotional. The main character did have a character development, which I wouldn’t have thought.
    This is a bit over 2 hours long, but it felt a lot longer.

  • Kare ga Boku ni Koishita Ryuu

    20. Kare ga Boku ni Koishita Ryuu

    Japanese Drama - 2020, 4 episodes

    6.0

    Low budget. Two teachers who fall in love. The main characters acting is so over the top (it’s supposed to be funny but I just can’t take him seriously). But apart from that this series is ok.
