Less goofy than it sounds, and in a good way
The plot is camp, let's admit it, and I was here for it. The first maybe...three episodes are really goofy, which made it really surprising when the story started getting more serious later down the line. This is a BL in which homosexuality is a thing, as in something that is discussed, and surprisingly well.
There's a scene I particularly appreciated, when the main character tells us about the first time he went to ComicCon and how he felt seen and surrounded by people who were unashamed of who they are, which really resonated with me as I (and I believe many people) have had a similar experience. This is a love letter to acceptance and community, without demonizing introversion.
To be fair no, the romance isn't the maint point of the story. It's first and foremost a tale about accepting oneself. Don't be fooled though: this is still very much a romance, and you will get sweet moments!
