A tale of Somae Ao and Natsuno Nagi at the mercy of fate. Across three different eras, they meet, fall in love, die alongside thunder, and are reincarnated. In 1983, the two university students meet for the first time…
Love Thunder is a hauntingly romantic Japanese BL series that transcends time itself. Spanning three distinct eras—1983, the 1990s, and the present day—it follows the fated souls of Ao and Nagi, two young men who meet, fall deeply in love, and meet a tragic end under a crack of thunder, only to be reborn and repeat the cycle. Their first encounter in 1983 at a record store sparks an instant connection fueled by a shared love for Dvořák's New World Symphony, leading them to bury a time capsule meant for a future version of themselves. But a mysterious curse binds them to a repeating pattern of love and loss, with thunder as both a signal of their passion and an omen of their doom. Blending fantasy, music, and bittersweet romance, this short-form series packs an emotional punch despite its compact runtime, offering a visually poetic meditation on fate, devotion, and the ties that refuse to break.
