Intriguing.

In Between is a Pinoy BL miniseries with 5 episodes. As of writing I've seen 2 episodes. It was promising and intriguing.

As a Filipino myself, I am very glad with the sprouting of BL industry. It's a high time to showcase the Philippine take on the said subgenre or anything of that sort. We've seen The Gameboys series and Hello Strangers as BL series with virtual setting and it's a breathe of fresh air to encounter this series--with new faces of course.

Let's start with storyline. So the story revolves around Tau and Otep who are ex-lovers and was reunited because of a birthday party with one of their barkada (friend). The storyline is focused on what's in between their first meeting and their good bye as a lovers (basically what the title is saying) but we can see the story revolves after their breakup and idk what will happen next.

The first sequence was cringey and off. The acting looks like shot in one take, maybe because they're neophytes in acting world? Idk. But that particular scene is the most important since it draws us to the whole point of the series, I'm just sad that wasn't executed well. However, as the scenes progresses, I find myself laughing and giggling their interaction with the whole gang.

Being a Pinoy, that's how barkadas act towards each other. However, it drags the whole storyline. Like this series have 5 episodes so some scenes were unnecessary.

What I like about this series is the title sequence. Idk, I'm impressed with the wittiness of their creative/editing team. It's a cute concept.

So the question I have right now, what happened between the hello and good bye? I'm dying to know.
