I actually really enjoyed this series. It doesn't take itself too seriously, while still maintaining a satisfying level of foreshadowing and moments that take on a new meaning upon completion of the series. And there is much more to the MCs' relationship issues than just miscommunication - issues that I don't see addressed in many series, let alone BLs. I do wish that those issues got a bit more screen time though.

The characters were written consistently and had a significant level of depth to them - which is quite notable for a series that has comedy as a focus. I was able to tell and stay in touch with each of the characters' motivations and insecurities. And I thoroughly enjoyed this friends-to-lovers plot because of how well the two MCs understand each other, and exceptions to that had valid and in-character reasons, rather than appearing out of thin air. And the pseudo-harem situation didn't take as much focus as initially anticipated - keeping the plot from feeling excessive and attention-dividing.

Having Fluke sing in this series was a welcome surprise - although the songs that got the major spotlight weren't as captivating as the music in other series'. The acting also had brief moments that felt off - with some actors appearing more angry than the character was. And kiss scenes didn't have as much chemistry as the non-kiss scenes suggested. But perhaps this is because of the friend-dynamic that the actors have in real-life. Even though I know that the French wasn't the best, I think that its inclusion was a welcome one, and story-wise it would've felt weird not to have it.
