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!

It's good, but not outstanding

Should you give this a watch? Sure!

It's fluffy, the side characters are fun, the actors are good, the story is trying something, and at times it's really funny. Will it change your life forever? Surely not, but is that what we were asking this drama to do?

This really comes in line with the recent influx of Japanese BL drama. I want to add cookie points for the production team of this drama, because things just...look nice! There are some pretty shots at the aquarium especially, and we get a few moments when the leads seemingly break character which is for the better.
