I was not disappointed
I came into the show blind without watching trailers, clips, and did not read the novel, so I was not looking forward to anything. But I did come into this knowing it was a BL, so I was waiting for that aspect. The biggest thing that this show has done, which none other has done for me before is that the anticipation for a new episode every Saturday was always high. So I did love that it was very dramatic until the end, if you love the SLOW BUILD, this show is NOT for you. Everything happens very fast, to the point that you might even miss things and have to come to the internet to realize some stuff. Was it perfect? No. Did I love it? Very, much.
**Spoilers ahead**
Some things you will see might be triggering, and it would be best if you can't handle torture, violence, blood, and sex while drugged (yes that's how I'm calling it), you might have to step back. Many characters that are complex and very flawed, and I think that's exactly what the show wanted to portray.
This show has handled some heavy topics very well in my opinion especially Porsche's ''rape''. And because Kinn and Porsche ended up in a relationship after they had sex while Porsche was drunk does not mean the show is romanticizing rape, please.
The whole VegasPete relationship, I can understand how some people might not like it, very understandable. At first I didn't know how the show was going to portray such a complex dynamic. But they did very well, to the point that I was rooting for them to have a happy ending.
** End of Spoilers**
In conclusion if you were expecting Casa Del Papel or The Godfather SORRY. it's not. It's just a show, with a dash of mafia and a lot of gay. And the soundtrack is so great.
