Underestimated
I'd agree with a lot of others commenting the show being somewhat confusing, and some acting that could be improved.After watching through a second time it was definitely easier to pick up on some things that would have been overlooked, sometimes making some questions there aren't answers for... but overall still pretty enjoyable.
I think this is a overall pretty heavy BL in the grand scheme of shows to date, and I think they did a good job telling the story they wanted to. Lots of emotion they did a good job of portraying, some they could have done better. Overall was pretty impressed they story line seemed to stay consistent within all that was going on.
Overall would highly recommend to any other avid BL watcher.

Gave it a second change, glad I did!
Overall my biggest issue was the start of the show, which given the in general slow dialogue, was a turn off. Somehow I ended up giving the series a second chance (coincidently just as the last episode was about to be released) and overall I was blown away by the show as a whole.Long story short the BL is subtly romanced based, but you have to get pretty far in to see what that really means.
A positive point about the series is that even though it is early college/high school flashbacks based, the story for the most part kind of pulls you away from that and focuses on the character development, which is pretty good and easy to follow through. Acting overall was pretty good, minus the occasionally obnoxiously long slow dialogues. Quality of the episode recording overall was excellent. Music was good, some great songs by Palmy.
I think in the future I may do a speed rewatch, probably not a full rewatch like some other shows but I think it would be worth it. I tend to rewatch *not going to spoiler* certain (yes rated PG) emotional moments that really highlight the character development / maturation points of this show has to offer.
Overall great show, highly recommend. If you’re not into high school/college themed BLs (I’m kind of middle way growing out of them) I think you would be surprised by the way this show more or less finds a way to distract from reminding you that. No field trips and team building filler like almost all their other shows.
