STORY:
This series is good for BL fans who enjoy more mature content and don’t mind a bit of smut. The setting is different than your more mainstream BLs, which I thought gave it a more interesting touch. The episodes follow the same general format: most of it focuses on introducing characters and advancing the storyline and concludes with a more gratuitous sex scene (which, yes, can get explicit—though no complete nudity is shown. If that’s not your thing then you may want to skip those parts, but if you want something less vanilla than a lot of other BLs, then you won’t be disappointed). That said, I found that as the episode number increased, the plot line was given less attention, the story felt really rushed, and the characters acted in ways that felt flat, inorganic, and solely for the purpose of pushing a particular narrative. That is, I would have appreciated their actions more had they--the characters--been given more backstory and development. Having finished the series, I’m left wanting so much more based on the story line and first few episodes, but unfortunately the story seemed to get a little lost and underwhelming about halfway through.

ACTING:
A bit hit or miss. I thought the three main guys—Brian, Andre, and Ryan—were decent, but the supporting cast was about what you’d expect coming from what I’m thinking is a lower-budget project (in other words, I don’t think they’ll make it as actors).

MUSIC:
Really cool vibe, I liked it.

REWATCH VALUE AND OVERALL THOUGHTS:
Although nowhere near among the best dramas I’ve seen, the story was entertaining and somewhat different. I wish more time was given to plot and character development, but the episodes are short so it’s not a huge investment of time. If you’re interested in the series and don’t mind a bit of what’s essentially soft porn, then I’d say go for it. Just don’t expect a super deep and profound masterpiece.
