Surprisingly Good!

I came into this movie with only one expectation: that it was going to be bad, because honestly, I've NEVER been impressed by a Japanese BL in my life. The tables have turned!
But this truly isn't a BL. Lol! This movie has a lot of heterosexual fantasies in it, but the mains just happen to be kinda gay with each other. In a very lustful way-- not so much in a fluffy, romantic way. One of them constantly has super gay fantasies, so I guess, maybe it's a BL??

Anyways, I freakin' loved this series! I binged the 6 episodes in one night. I thought it was art. It brought me through a rollercoaster of emotion/thoughts, and it always left me on the edge of my seat.
Just a warning that this movie isn't for people who want light-hearted cutesy stuff. This movie was about raw sexuality and desire. There's a lot of sexual stuff in it. But it also has a story! And you actually care about the characters. Sometimes, you become curious, and think, "well, he's mysterious!"

+1 Cast
+1 Acting
+1 Story
+1 Would rewatch it

-1 It really isn't what I would call a BL, but it's listed everywhere as one
