Oh God, this is so much better than almost all the BLs out there. You can accomplish a whole story of love in 22 minutes, softly and realistically, that most of the BLs I have seen cannot do in 8 to 12 episodes. And you do it with sincerity and sensitivity! I want more! Please do not stop. I actually CARE about Charlie and Gabriel.

[@user-fu6si5ub4v]

❤❤waww I love it very much 😚 fav couple 😊😊😊😊

[@AngelGomez-ld9nt]

Very nice comment, and i totally agree about that some BL couldnt protrait fully what this amazing short film could.

[@AmandaAraujoRamos]

SAME ❤

[@Ray-gr5fp]

This is just not true though lol, you've not been watching the right bls because this year and last year had some of the best produced bls released. In contrast, I actually found the pacing of this short film pretty bad... it was only 22mins but it felt awfully long because of how slow it is. But well I can understand a difference in taste.

[@lovesdramas]

I think this was a sweet short film, but I really can’t agree with it being better than most BLs. Like if you out this next to let’s say Ant Reset (aka, an amazing Taiwanese drama, probably one of the best dramas I’ve actually ever seen), they just aren’t even in the same league. Seriously incomparable. Even next to one of the simpler ones like Golden Blood or Cherry Magic, it’s just not the same. I still enjoyed this short film, I just can’t put it up there with most gay East Asian dramas.

Gabriel is the definition of cuteness in the face and sexiness in the body

Charlie’s shy demenour makes the confession so sweet.

NOW THIS SERIES IS RIGHT ON POINT. THE ENGLISH IS PERFECT, THE MUSIC IS FANTASTIC, AND MY MANS TATOOS OMG. THIS ONE WILL BE A HIT!

[@Niso20201]

So nice to see Charlie and Gabriel take a step forward. I'm already hoping to see their third movie.❤❤❤

[@jenniferhuff4895]

Is this the second video of them?

[@Niso20201]

@@jenniferhuff4895 Yes. The first one was just called "Pure Vanilla"

[@der_Allsehende_Seher]

No. 3 please, this story is magical!😊

[@darkfairy5000]

This way more mature and better than some childish bl series.

[@sillypseudonym4705]

I was pleasantly surprised to see this sequel. This story was beautifully shot, and the unease of navigating a new relationship felt realistic. Happy for more of this story unfold.

​@adanne3262 It looks like it's in the description, just titled Pure Vanilla. I haven't seen it myself though, so I'm not sure.

It is great having this longer version of the short of 9 minutes "Pure Vanilla" released on Valentine's Day 2023 now. 🤗 😍 😘

When your boyfriend says “do you even notice the way he looks at you” you need to take the hint buddy and dial back the time you are spending with that person

[@b.erisblackexo-l1503]

So beautiful to watch Charlie actually voice out his feelings and Gabriel not push him with his own feelings. This is so well written.

[@tiatunz9534]

But Gabriel never came clean with his own feelings. He asked for clarification, but never clarified or said what his own feelings were. And when Charlie said I love you - he didn't just not say I love you back - he said nothing!! I found the writing odd.

WE NEED A FULL SERIES!!!!! 🥹 i love Gabriel and Charlie!

The only thing I regret is that this masterpiece has only 22 minutes! Everything is so perfect here and keeps our hearts so warm, I cannot express how happy I am watching this.

[@cedricwilliams7966]

This was cute and entertaining! And the actor with the "tattoos"(Braven Yeo)was gorgeously 🔥🔥! Love the concept of the story and the happy ending. 👏👏! Entertaining and heartwarming 🫶.

[@jayem.4368]

Everyone within your company did such a fabulous job on this short film. Pure Vanilla was brought to life so much that I wanted to cry for Gabriel, shake Charlie and tell him to wake up and see Gabe's love for him and slap Alex and tell him to get out of their life. The emotions portrayed in this very much got to me; my congratulations to you all and please keep giving us more like this. Pure love from me here in USA!😍😍🤟

[@Pikajiew]

Wasn’t expecting a sequel to this, but I’m not complaining, it great to see Charlie and Gabriel confirming their relationship. Great short film. ❤️❤️❤️

[@johnchurch2632]

Alex recognized that Charlie seemed to be an introvert years back when he had a crush on Charlie who lived in a shell. This beautiful story show how Charlie started to come out of that shell and see the true love he had for Gabriel and Gabriel for him. I do not know if Gabriel knew of Charlie's Introverted side that tented to isolate himself from relationships. I wish I could see the initial segment of these two wonderful and loving characters. 250 Fils created the perfect cast and crew to create a concise and loving budding romance. You deserve all the praise and compliments from your faithful fans and viewers. Congratulations. I'd love to see these characters continue to grow in their relationship Love from the United States., John ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍

[@G.L.X.]

Even if the prequel didn't get all too many views, I like how it still got a sequel.

[@sashamonitor]

Awwww I have missed Charlie and Gabe ❤. They are so cute and the actors have great chemistry!!! Part 3 🤞🙏

[@khikaripucanma3046]

Glad to watch a continuation of their romance! Very cuteee!!! So glad I waited❤

This was just the right amount of sweet that makes your heart flutter👏👏👏😍😍

[@justmeajah]

I really really love how you portray Gab's longing and insecurities!! Exactly like how I felt, just keeping it to myself and unsure how to react

[@azzurragrasso8846]

Very happy to see these two guys again and the continuation of their story... I hope there will be a third part or at least I hope to see them again in another project. Enthusiastic about this series from the beginning, beautiful and intense stories can be told even in just a few minutes.

[@FirstKhaoStan]

I didn't realize there was going to be a sequel, this just made my day! Just like the first one, I adored this so much! Everyone did a fantastic job! Thank you for blessing me with this amazing sequel 😊 I loved this so much, they are so sweet together 🥰 I loved all the food/recipe analogies, they were so fitting and added to the charm of this short film. I also really loved the healthy communication between all of them, it was so refreshing compared to most series lol.

0:14 Charlie, you ARE a romantic! You just kept it inside and had to be shown that it is better to express it. You get my vote❤😊

"Less if you keep asking.".. LOL.. Cute...I will use that line....

I want more of it please 🥺 🥺🙏 am so in love charlie and Gabriel there chemistry is so so beautiful 😍

[@pavithrabalasubramanian7344]

This is really really really good then most of the BLs. Those monologues hit me hard and I loved the recipe comparisons with love. Enjoyed it. And I need more of Charlie and Gabe.

[@jenniferhuff4895]

I understand Charlie is not good with people, but when Gabrel tells Charlie his concerns about all the time he is spending with Alex, and he does not listen and brushes it aside to me is disrespectful. I get Alex is a friend, but he is treating Gabriel like he does not care about him at all. Great short film, I think whoever made this nailed it! 👍

[@thomaslong7262]

Wow! Great job on this short. The acting was well done. Deng (Charlie) created a very believable character. His shyness, hesitations, and uncertainty were palpable. The cinematography, editing, sound stage, and directing were were well done. I don't know the experience level of the actors and crew, but it came across very professional. I look forward to seeing more productions by 250 Films and more shows featuring Braven, Deng and Leon. Best wishes for all of your future endeavors! #250Films #PureVanilla #BL #GayDrama #BoysLove #Gay

🎉🎉🎉 the angst of what is next once you say “ I like you”. Charlie oblivious to those crushing on him around him😊❤. Awesome short.

[@kdoggforever]

A short story that was so good they made it into a longer short story. For heaven's sake just give these guys a full series!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@eugenefrankmd5433]

The acting is absolutely so polished and professional, miles above the usual, boring BL, that I was (as a psych) responding emotionally in a way so unusual, so tenderly, despite Gabe's very beautifully crafted masculine jock image, he acted so counterintuitively so that his intonation had a penetrating dimension that one could not hold off responding. The tension between Gabe's created image, and his personal persona, synergies his effect. Casting Charlie. avoiding a well sculptured, Asian hung/beauty, made the emotional impact of Gabe's feelings so much more tender. The delicacy of the flavours, well I could smell the vanilla...

[@debanjanaroy7911]

your english is soo good

[@jameshays932]

Lovely sweet story with wonderful pauses between lines....very good story. Much more chemistry than I expected at first!

This was lovely!! Enjoyed it a lot

[@LinhTran-el9ll]

I've watched too many Asian bl series that this short surprised me in an unusual way. What I mean is that I'm used to hearing Korean, Chinese, Thai, VN and Japanese speaking their language and rarely English got mixed in the conversation which I'm okay with. Of course I relied on English subtitles to understand. Only when I'm desperate I'll watch the program RAW, and re-watch when the caption is shown that it's been translated. Hearing Charlie, Gabe and Alex's English, it makes me feel like I'm watching an occidental short film. Though the actors are of Asian descent with Asian accent, this still lacks some kind of oriental demeanor. P.S. Btw, I do enjoy this well made short very much, and thank you for posting and sharing. 🫰
