Not so bad for a Pinoy BL
My comments are merely subjective so chill out if ya dont agree.
Only watched this show because a lot of people were going crazy about it.
There’s no question about the chemistry the two main leads have but honestly, sometimes they’re just trying so hard to become great actors that they ended up making some good lines too cringey to hear.
Ace’s character development was completely shitty. I didnt even realise that they were already confessing to each other’s feelings. I mean yeah he hawt asf but where’s the damn chase phase at yo! That’s the whole gist of a bl series. They also need a support role tho.
Also, Moira’s character is just purely below the belt. I know they’re somewhat of a successful actor /actress if their role is the antagonist and the viewers get pissed at them but Moira’s character was just too disrespectful, unnecessary, and just plain bad. What im getting at is that the writers were trying so hard to make us hate her character.
What I like about the show is their OST. Hindi Ako Bibitaw always saves the show whenever it’s played. I don’t care how much awkward the episode is, but when it plays, uggh my heart just melts.
The Bisaya dialect. Chukchuk and friends. The number of gay characters they put in the show. These all just goes to show that they’re trying to inject a “let’s be different from other bl series we usually see” vibe. I liked it.
Overall, it was not my bl cup of tea but for a pioneering Filipino bl, I guess it’s not so bad.
