A interesting watch, but definitely worth it- go watch it ?

I first heard about this show when I was looking for Mangas to read, the plot definitely caught my eye but I ended up going with something else. Then I entirely switched Mediums and no longer read BL mangas as much. So when I saw this but as a live action, I decided to give it a shot. I’m glad I did. The movie provided awkward but lovable characters. The plot was handled well, especially with Yashiros changing feelings about his gender identity and sudden reveal of his secret “identity”. His character development was nice to see as he became more comfortable with himself and in turn grew as a character. Momose was complicated but turned out to be the most simple character as he was ultimately more ccomfortable, though at first a bit confused, with his newfound attraction for Yashiro. He had flaws, I don’t agree with what he did to Yashiro in the bedroom but I think it was a result of confusion and teenage hormones/awkwardness. Not excused, but understandable as he didn’t mean it. Their relationship development between both characters was really pretty to see as they both helped eachother in different ways, I especially liked seeing Momoses feelings go from only being attracted to Yashiro when he was cross dressing to being attracted even when he was in normal clothes. Overall I would give this a 9/10 purely because I wasn’t as attached to the characters due to the length, which also made the movie seemed somewhat rushed at times. I would probably rewatch this again and maybe reconsider my rating to a higher score but even so, although not amazing this was a really good watch and showed well teenage awkwardness around attraction and changing feelings. If you’re thinking about watching this, I’d recommend. It’s a good watch with a interesting plot.

My favourite scene was probably the scene wher Momose gets hard even tho Yashiro is dressed normally, and holds his hand and the the final 10 minutes.
