Clever
I was not expecting this show to be as good as it was. At first glance it seems like a pretty generic unrequited best-friend love story (and it kinda is) BUT what made this show so clever is the use of film. Each episode's title is the name of a different film, and the scenes that ensue draw inspiration from the films. It used cliches for sure, but rather than pretending like they were being cute and original like so many BLs do, they leant into it. It was made clear that *cute scene here* was stolen from *this movie* for *this reason*. They also had multiple reenactments from famous movies with the characters and so many of the sets used and activities that the characters did together were based around film. The director took the theme of FILMS and bloody RAN with it. It was amazing.
TLDR: The story is not original, but the way it's portrayed is so clever, and the cinematography and music is just so good. It's incredibly engaging and I highly recommend it.
