Just because it's spinning, doesn't mean it's being cleaned

I don't have much words for this washing machine overall, so let's keep it short and to the point. This wasn't either. It's stuck between a comedy which builds its humor on highschooler harrassing a guy 10 years older than him on one side, and psychological drama that deals with trauma of said older guy on other side. It never goes far enough in either direction, just repeats the same wishy-washy cycle over and over again.

What I liked:

1. Visuals - both leads are pretty good-looking (as is usual in BLs), and the environment is also nice.
2. OST - the intro song is lively.
3. Neko comment from a side character. [start of episode 11]

What I disliked:

1. The plot doesn't move, for vast majority of the time. You're getting the same interactions over and over again.

2. It felt like writers didn't know what they wanted this show to be. Aside from constantly switching tone from kinda funny to kinda sad, back and forth, they introduce small side plots that are cleared almost as quickly as they come. But never developed.

3. Strong themes are brushed away nonchalantly. [more in spoilery comment under review]

Overall, I can't feel anything intense for this drama, other than frustration. It's just whatever.
