Very high quality BL series. I mean, have you seen its opening theme? Come on! Your BL series could never!

The production value and direction is of quality. Kudos to the crew.
Storytelling at its best. Script is very intelligent. Very relatable and realistic. Not at all cringy.
And the cast and their acting? It is waaaaaayyy up your typical BL series. Granted the cast are beautiful people as they are already, but they did not just rely on that (unlike a few geez). They could actually act and made me believe them.

Dark Blue Kiss did not hold back. Top of the pack, indeed. Highly highly recommended.
