Favorite Slowburn Bl Series - already have rewatched
First off Santa is so freaking cute and adorable in this series. I think people forget that this really is how it feels to have that high school angst and love-anxiety. After sitting with this series for a couple of weeks now, here’s what I can say:The chemistry is THERE. They writing did a great job at portraying exactly how it feels like to be in their situation. In every episode I asked myself “hmm, would I have done the same, if I had a secret crush on my lifelong best friend?” And honestly my answer most of the time was “yeah, I probably would have”. This is a slower burn series which is not to everyone’s liking but if you can stomach the wait, it’s worth it.
I usually get bored with some of the too slow to burn series but I felt as though this was perfect. They really took their time to tell everything, even during parts of the series where you feel a bit lost, you know that it’s intentional (they want you to feel that way) not accidental.
Earth really is a phenomenal actor in this series. Santa did an amazing job as well, but Earth had so much emotional dialogue in each episode - something that’s really difficult to handle on and off camera for actors. I gave this series a 10/10 because after rewatching this show, there’s only 1 episode I didn’t really like but that’s more because of the topic surrounding that episode rather than the episode itself. Everything else was perfect, the pacing, the casting, the music, the cinematography, and the acting was terrific.
