Cute friends being cute - Silly BL adjacent fun
Easy to watch, light-headed ridiculousness- the series. I'm surprised how much I enjoyed this considering how silly it is and the fact that I am really not into cat to human stuff at ALL. There are quite a few cringey acting like a cat scenes, but once you get past those in the first couple episodes mostly- there's a simple, sweet story there. Nothing really bad happens, every character is understanding and nice to each other. I really thought I'd hate this, but I actually looked forward to new eps for something nice and cheerful to watch. Cute people being cute too each other basically. Honestly I took points off this because it's not true BL- it's PG level BL adjacent as everyone is just good friends in the end LOL.
There are three couples here:
Couple 1 - Catboy meets orphan. Dermderm has an absolutely atrocious wig on for the first several episodes (think Sin in UWMA level bad wig). James (playing catboy 1-literally called "Meow") is cute and dedicated to the role- I'll say that. I was surprised to see him in this after the brutal sadness of his story in the Effect. But honestly it was nice to see him playing a silly, happy catboy after that. I wasn't that into this couple and tbh they were the only couple I was glad had no real physical intimacy in the end because I feel like it would have been weird. Mostly due to how juvenile James is made too act and look- he literally comes off as a kid. It would have been weird so I'm glad they didn't go there.
Couple 2 - Cute catboy 2 meets emotionally vacant but really cute boy. My fave couple! Evan is really cute and I can't wait to see him in something else where his character is actually meant to emote- I wanted to just see him smile so bad! Even despite that- I thought this couple had chemistry and I enjoyed all their sweet scenes.
Couple 3 - Delightful GL couple! They have to be the first GL couple I've genuinely enjoyed watching in a BL series. I love their dynamic so much!
Acting/Cast: Fine enough- let's not pretend there was any real serious acting required in this series lmao.
Overall I enjoyed this but the lack of any real BL conclusion (even a cheek kiss would have been fine for the second couple) took it down a few pegs for me in the end. There wasn't a real conclusion.
