Underrated

Problematic tropes are used in this series, but they are actually addressed unlike older BLs. It's refreshing how the characters explicitly talk about these tropes. They say things that BL audiences have been thinking about these issues for for years. Characters may also seem stereotypical at the start, but as the series goes along especially near the end, pleasant surprises that break the mold are thrown in. What's more skillfully done is how these tropes are used together with other devices to provide a funny, entertaining experience. I was just laughing every episode. Just when you think the scenarios couldn't get any more ridiculous, they will, and you laugh more and louder. It helps that the actors deliver in both comedic and dramatic scenes. The supporting cast is absolutely hilarious and endearing. Watch this memorable, underrated, even subversive series.
