Sweet and delightful just like a cupcake

This is a treat for the older audience like me who enjoy calm and beautiful romance slowly unfolding. The manga was everything to me, its rare to find a BL series about life itself dealing with realistic problems. So when they announced the adaptation, I could only just squeal in excitement!

Takeda and Tasunari are exceptional for their roles, they really delivered a realistic approach so its hard not to root for their characters. I think what a make or break for me in every BL series I watched is the acting. If the actors are not sincere it will not only ruin the chemistry but the story itself. But thankfully the actors did an amazing portrayal, the last time I was moved by a good performance from a BL series was from Mood Indigo and The cornered mouse dream of cheese and I can guarantee you this two are the epitome of the BEST BL series I've seen. So its a big feat for OFC to create a beautiful series in just a short amount of time that it became impactful and groundbreaking example for what a BL series should be, a story with a heart.
