Rewatch Value 5.0
Overall - The story is not original. It reminds me of other Japanese BL I have watched but just a more modern version. There is more consent and acceptance between the two characters. It's a decent story. Of course the couple is cute. The tag "pure love" is correct. There are steamy scenes, but those do not make a movie for me.

Vagueness - Throughout the movie, the couple faced many problems that were lightly glazed over. The positive is, we as viewers don't have to sit in angst for the characters to reconcile. The negative is, the story feels slightly disconnected. Although, the story is very cohesive considering this.

Acting/Cast - The acting of the main characters was great. There was some cringey or unnatural acting with the smaller roles and one-liner roles (there are more than you think), but not really a big deal.

****Ending - Vague like the rest of it. LOL. Happy in my opinion.

Music - It was good. Nothing to complain about.

Rewatch Value - The couple is cute, but with the plethora of BL dramas and movies I have, I would not pick to rewatch this one. The story is generic. Because of that, my chance of re-watching is low.
