I had no idea what to expect going in which is ideal I think unless you expect all bls to follow a certain arc

as someone who has and still does live with depression and mental health issues this was an incredibly impactful story about how it feels to overcome your own demons

there was also tremendous moments of levity and humour which sold me from the jump. i loved both characters and the execution of the angel was so well done

spoilers below:

in the end the fact that he was responsible for his own happiness was so profound and beautiful to me. sometimes we need that outside source to tell us what we already know and motivate us to change. and the fact that be created that for himself in this very real and sassy angel character is just . i don't really have the words, it's masterful storytelling honestly

I haven't yet rewatched it but I know l'll come back to this again bc it has all the melancholy realness of life but ultimately ends happily and reminds us that there's always hope

it might not be for everyone but i really encourage everyone to understand the meaning and care less about their expectations
