Honestly, the story and cinematography is pretty good but the lead characters just didn't click with me.. they really seemed very awkward to me, especially Kaneda, and I didn't feel like there was any real chemistry between them.. the casting was poor I'd say.. I'd give a thumbs up to everything else though, they took care of every other smallest detail like explaining and portraying what goes into making CGIs .. it didn't seem fake at all👍 Also I loved Yanase, I hope I'll get to see him in another BL with a different actor though ♥️
I'm quite late to reply to your review but I wanna say that I agree with you totally. After watching a dozen or so BLs with sad endings I've finally given up on them. Heck! I've even given up on BLs midway because I heard there would be no happy ending. I started watching and enjoyed BLs for the sole reason that they felt like pure bliss to me ♥️✨ I had never enjoyed hetero romances and relationships to the same extent. If I watch a BL I want it to have a nice happy ending because the LGBTQ+ community has a hard time in our society as it is. People are influenced by dramas and movies, it's necessary that the creators do not overlook this fact. Even I was sceptical of gay relationships before I started watching BLs but then I realised that all the stereotypes about them were so shameful and insulting to them. I changed my mind and became more acceptable toward the LGBTQ+ community ♥️
Currently re-watching and I'll honestly never stop loving this series. It's a masterpiece and really stands out from all other BLs. The intimate scenes are close to none but the couples will still make your heart flutter like crazy ♥️ Love u Adachi & Kurosawa ♥️🥺✨
