Is it really a good BL if you don't cry ?

I just finished watching this movie, and let me tell you, I did not waste any of my time AT ALL.

When I watched it, I didn't watch any preview or read the summary; I didn't even look in the comments. So that said, the whole movie was a surprise, I didn't know the plot or the main characters.

The plot and the story was so well written, I was hooked from the beginning. Nothing was too slow, but nothing was too fast either, they moved at a normal pace. Every single time I thought something bad was going to happen, I was wronged, for example, when Akira's sister found out about Yuki, I thought she was going to be disrespectful and hatful, but on the contrary, she was supportive and proud that he was living his life as himself. With basic logic, I knew something bad was going to happen around the middle of the movie, and this time I was right. That's also when I started crying, and never stopped. Call me a cry baby but it really did break me in pieces. The more it went on, the more it hurt to watch. The fact that they added the characters from "HIStory 3: Make our days count" around the end made me cry even more, adding them was really a great idea and I love it.

For the cast/acting/characters

Let me applaud them for their amazing work. The actors did so well in portraying the emotions and everything looked so raw.
Yuki's character was the one that spoke the most to me. It may be because we have similar personalities, but everyone was just so amazing in this movie. When they broke down crying, I cried with them, I could feel the emotion through my screen. I'm going to have to watch other stuff with them in it because honestly, I love them.

The rewatch value is a big 9.5 because the other 0.5 is for the times I don't want to cry. I will certainly be rewatching this in the near future, this film is addicting and one of a kind and truly unparalleled.
