Practically Perfect

Okay, I’m actually mad at myself for putting this off for so long. BounPrem have been my favorite ship since watching UWMA back in 2020 (the only redeeming thing about that show). When this came out I was on somewhat of a BL hiatus, and when I started watching them again and saw some of the negative reviews for this I couldn’t bring myself to watch it.

I was so afraid that:
1. based on some reviews it was going to be depressing like UWMA, and that
2. because of that I might love BP a little less.

But turns out I had nothing to worry about! The negative reviews are grossly over exaggerated, especially the one’s comparing Team’s trauma to the depressing af reincarnation plot of UWMA. This was so so much better than that. I forgot how good BP are together, their chemistry is amazing and this really reminded me why I love them so much.

My only reason for the lower rating are for some of the inconsistencies in the story. For instance, the reincarnation plot flashbacks for Dean and Pharm in ep. 1 - while i’m sooo glad we didn’t actually dive back into that, it is never explained and for a viewer that hasn’t seen UMWA it wouldn’t make sense. There were a couple other instances like this throughout the show that could’ve just been left out. The only other thing I didn’t enjoy was the Bee/Prince plot line. It was unnecessary and not relevant to the rest of the story. If/when I rewatch I would skip over these scenes.

Overall, a solid BL with a wonderful cast. If you’re like me and questioning whether or not to give this a try, please do! It really is worth the watch, especially if you found and loved WinTeam in UWMA and want more of their story.
