ONLY reason to watch this remake is for the stupendously amazing comedic acting of Edan Lui in episodes 1-6. After that it all goes to BL hell, following exactly in the footprints of the Japanese series original and movie before it. I have no idea why the producers put money and effort into this when it tells the same, original, lame-ass story as the earlier version. Nothing new or exciting, liberating, joyful at all. Just cliche after cliche to wind the story down from its exhilarating early episodes to its depressing second half. I'm watching to the bitter end, however, cause I've already put in 11 hours and I'm a masochist.

I would have loved to give this show a 9/10, which I did early on.

I'm ending up at a warmed-over 4/10.
