A dash of spice, a whole lot of cute, and the tiniest drop of drama

WinTeam became my favorite couple easily within the first four episodes and that didn't let up at all. The series had some of the nostalgic feelings that reminded me of older BL, but in a more progressed stage.

There is some overlap with UWMA, as this takes place concurrently with it. Sometimes that felt a bit much for me, but that's always because I had just finished UWMA. If I hadn't, I don't think I would've been feeling that way. It was fun to see in time how the relationship grew and took place.

What drew me most to this couple and the drama is the authenticity of it. The relationship felt realistic for the most part, and oddly, quite healthy considering the characters ages and the setting. We saw their insecurities, and at times how that got in the way, but they each spoke with people around them and made efforts to progress. It was refreshing, especially with all the common tropes that we usually get in BLs involving more toxic elements. This didn't feel like that at all.

There was some drama around Team's past, but again, that felt very authentic. They presented his symptoms and his management of the feelings related to the event in a very realistic way. Honestly, my biggest issue was the overabundance of side romances. None of them were able to be fleshed out and those were the scenes I ended up zoning out on at times. But the ABSea trio made up for some of that by grabbing my attention right back.

I'm not one to typically rewatch, but this will be on my list.
