I really enjoy this series. Japanese BL dramas hit different. On the surface they are often comical with the anime-like expressions and inner dialogues, but the depth of the characters in these dramas sucks you in before you know it. I love Yoh so much. He’ frustratingly adorable and clueless. Segasaki is the type of needy controller you wouldn’t mind dealing with…Especially those little smirks he gives.

Sometimes directors/writers put in too many flashbacks, but the ones added here really did give context to their initially confusing relationship.

I love the supporting bestie, Kanami. She offered just the right amount of support to both Yoh and the story. my fave scene is when she discovers who Yoh’s boyfriend is and Yoh gets drunk- Yoh drunk is the best. He’s so baby-core, all sulky and refreshingly honest about his feelings.

The kissing/bed scenes were done well, too (the first and last episode live in my head rent free). I had the appropriate amount of stomach drops and butterfly swarms to reel me in. 🦋🦋 The main leads have great on-screen chemistry. 🫠I hope I get to see them paired in future works.

Even though I’ve rewatched this series so many times, the feelings remain. I wish they’d do a second series.
