A Warm, Feel-Good Series about Home, Love, and Friendship

Two things that stuck out to me from the beginning of this show were the magnificent cinematography and the poetic dialogues/monologues. I think some of the commentators here simply do not know how read that deeply into the thoughts of characters and look into the philosophy of the screenwriting. This is not a series with smut and brainless humor; it has very delicate and precious messages about the concept of home and belonging. This, combined with the amazing camerawork made the show brilliant to watch. Not to mention the actors are all beautiful and whoever was in charge of costumes had a delightful taste. I also really liked the inclusion of a female supporting character that was neither villainized nor left out of the main story. She has her own character arc, her own story, and she isn’t there for comic relief or as a source of toxicity.

I think some viewers may have become lost due to the deepish nature of the dialogue and the somewhat heavy topics that are covered in this show. This show is a piece of artwork and thus is not for everyone; this does not detract from its beauty; it simply is its own unique series. Another positive thing to say about this show is that it takes place in a warm (fictional) world where gay love is completely normalized, which is very refreshing and feel-good, especially for queer kids watching. I am not saying that other series that accurately portray the trauma of coming out or living in a heteronormative world are not important, but I think that both of these types of storylines are important for us to have in the world, not just for us but for the next generation of gay youth.

The only negative thing I will say about this series is that it is short, and due to that, there is not as much time to develop characters and it can feel rushed at times (and let’s be honest, we all get a little sad when we see an episode is shorter that we expected haha).

PS: The OST is also great and I loved the opening sequence when it plays.
