Not the worst, but just so bland

By the time I reached episode 5, I was seriously starting to wonder what I was even staying for.  At episode 7, I was like, yep okay that’s it. I’m out. Life is too short to waste on BLs that don’t excite.

The storyline lacks depth and novelty, especially in 2022, when the BL industry has matured beyond simple college plots. It’s getting increasingly difficult for a college BL to stand out, so either unique storylines and/or exceptional chemistry between the leads would have to do all the heavy lifting.

Ai Long Nhai would have probably done a lot better if it existed some years back. In 2022, it simply couldn't keep up.

There are some serious B-grade BLs out there filled with downright laughable moments, but ALN isn’t one of them. It’s not that the show is terrible – I can’t find anything that’s exceptionally terrible about the series, but maybe that was it. It was just so remarkably bland. 

The characters are predictable and boring, and the storyline couldn't keep me hooked either.
