This was a blast to watch. I'm not considered myself as a fujoshi as I love BL but I also like and watch other types as long as they are good. BL gerne-wise, this one is on the top of my list.
I have watched heaps of BLs but for Japanese BL series, not so much as they're usually poorly played and filmed. But this one is amazing, from the story writing to the acting, perfection.
I usually judge a BL movie based on the story writing, the acting and the chemistry of the mains. Tbh I don't feel the chemistry between Haruta and Kurosama, but they were very funny. As for Haruta and Maki, urgh, my heart. Theirs was, how should I say, Idk I just love it. You have to watch and see it for yourself. The chemistry between two mains in Japanese BLs is usually very forced but theirs, I can feel theirs. They kissed, but none of the kisses was actually a kiss? They were all just lips touching lips, which was a shame as I love good kisses. The last one when Haruta finally initiated looked good but too bad they cut it half way. I wish they gave Haruta a little bit more time to finish it. That one's promising.
About the acting, all actors and actresses played their roles well. Everyone was loveable and all the characters were open-minded and had their time to shine. I have nothing to complain yet I JUST WANT JUSTICE FOR MAKI! I think the actor did a GREAT JOB and Maki was convincing as a nice and shy and insecure person to me. Idk why some of you said he didn't do well? BUT idk if it's because it's Japanese that the acting is quite comical and over-expressed? At first I thought it was a live action remade from a manga but it's not. Yes the series was rush and that's also a shame, I wish they gave the actors more screen time to show character development. Like, I want to change their thoughts a bit. I want Maki to become more secure about their relationship and stop acting on his own and hurt Haruta. For Haruta, I want him to show more affection. I feel more love from Maki's side than Haruta's side. Seriously in some scenes Maki broke my heart with just his eyes. But as they are filming either Season 2 or a movie for Ossan's Love atm, I guess maybe they did that on purpose, like to give some rooms for characters to develop? Some Taiwanese BLs did very well on character development, maybe Japanese directors can refer to them? I'd suggest History 2: Crossing The Line. Short but gold.
I love the story writing of this. I didn't read any descriptions or spoilers before watching it, I just randomly watched it because I was bored, thus I was super nervous because I didn't know who he would end with (I was rooting for Maki from the very beginning and I was like if he didn't end up with Maki this series is sh!t lol sorry). Full of surprises but may trigger you if you're very against sexual harassment. Don't get me wrong I hate it with all my guts but for some reasons, those scenes to me were not annoying. I guess because the whole series has a comical vibe? Anyway, the only downside of the story writing is the lack of depth in characters' characteristics but it was full of surprises and laughter so I just looked passed it. The side characters had good storylines as well, I was rooting for Chouko and that young boy.
All in all, I'd highly recommend this to anyone who like BL but don't care too much about hot gay scenes.
