    Refreshing

    This Japanese BL series is very different from any BL series I've ever watched. The drama is very thick, there's very little sexual factor in this one. So if you're one of those people who's looking for sex in BL series, I suggest you skip this one, or you'll be disappointed. Although if you ask me, the absence of sex in this series didn't make this one less interesting to me. I've never seen anything like this one. It didn't shield the audience of the ugliness of this world. It showed us all about depression, vultures who took glory off of other people's misery, the bitterness of failure. But it also teaches us to be hopeful, to have faith, and to try to see the bright side in life. This is a very beautiful story.

    Loved it!

    It's really good to see a BL drama that doesn't involve sex every two chapters. This drama goes more into the soft side, and although the plot is kinda simple, it is executed really well, making the series entertaining and light-hearted.

    Overall, I liked the acting, and the only thing I can complain about is that there were some scenes that were a bit cringey. But that's just from my point of view.

    Also, I think the music was good, and some parts were really funny. The story has a nice ending, although I believe it could have been longer, and show more of one of the protagonists past and motivations.
