A Delightful Surprise
I tend to love quirky Japanese BL stories, so I came into this one expecting to pleasantly spend a handful of episodes having fun, but not dwell too much on it once it's over.
I'm not sure why, but I find myself looking forward to this show the most of any other that I watch from week to week. I find the two main leads so charming, and the plot manages to somehow be refreshing in the wake of tried and true same BL plotlines.
Maybe I was just happy that there wasn't an engineering student or a mob boss in sight, but I am enjoying this one. I'm almost sad that it's only eight episodes.
Also, I appreciate that they don't over exaggerate facial expressions to fit the manga vibe, like they have a tendency to do in most Japanese BL.
