By far the best part of the show for me was the middle 4-5 or so eps. The beginning spent too much time on P'Por (honestly just too much P'Por all around) and the end was really lackluster. It felt like their relationship built slowly to this certain point of the first kiss then never grew beyond that for the rest of the series. That was the peak.

Since I mentioned it, I'm also disappointed with every kiss scene. I don't need a full make-out or anything but let me not see daylight peeking between their lips at least. Make solid contact. I'd rather see no kiss than these barely touching things. This really killed the chemistry in those parts for me because it seemed so artificial. I did think their chemistry was cute otherwise though they are not flashy or intensely passionate.

The idea that none of the characters were anyone amazing, just normal people living their lives made the story seem a lot more realistic than the typical BL tropes. The slowburn was nice but after a certain point felt too same-y, and tho I liked the characters there wasn't much character growth either. I had looked forward to this series a lot and though there were things I liked about it they were not stand outs, leaving the whole thing feeling rather average.
