Nice Flow, Nice Love!
Man, where have DaouOffroad been my entire life? The way I fell in love with these two immediately needs to be studied. They gave me everything I could've ever wanted in a BL and more. On the plus side of that, Century of Love was a BL I was able to go through seamlessly while enjoying the plot, the characters, and the beautiful, wonderfully, outrageously gorgeous man that is Daou.
Let's Dive In.
I'm amazed at the amount of focus I had while watching this BL. I was able to watch it thoroughly and throughout without getting bored, or skipping past, or fast-forwarding. The entirely of the plot flowed perfectly, it never strayed into unwanted or unnecessary side arcs, it all was told in favor of the main couple, and I loved it. The premise of this series catches your attention, and then it's hard not to fall in love. San as the man that waits 100 years to be back with his love, and Wee, the uncanny Ms.Wad reborn. This had my name written all over it. It reminded me a lot of the Korean series "First Love Again" which I adored for the longest time, and this trope has made it's way up the ranking of things I hope to see more of.
Daou and Offroad... the man that those men are. They played incredibly in their roles, especially Daou who I enjoyed the most. The tension and yearning was so strong during the first half, it felt like it dwindled a little after the beginning, but for the most part, it's strong and it's there and it's great. They know how to kiss, they both look beautiful shirtless, and I really enjoyed them on screen.
Now, was the plot perfect? No, I think there are a couple holes that weren't patched together as nicely as they could've been, but for the most part it was all good. My only real nit-pick is that they kept showing flashbacks after flashbacks after flashbacks of the situation that happens in the first episode, which is severely redundant. A couple times is okay, but throughout the entirely of each episode felt like overkill.
But, overall, this was an excellent story, that made sure to be complex and story-driven while maintaining ebb and flow, and I had a great time watching.
Ratings:
Story: 9/10 - Incredibly engaging and fun. Great romance story, and I could literally have it told to me a hundred time over again.
Acting. 8.5/10 - Daou did a fantastic job! I think Offroad could've done better tho, for sure. He had a really hard time crying, which in his case, with dealing with his dying grandmother and San, wasn't the best scenario not being able to authentically cry.
Music: 7.5/10 - I liked it!
Recommendation Value: 8.5/10 - I thoroughly enjoyed this, and it's a great series. I'm excited to see what else these boys have up their sleeve for next year.
