Romeo and Juliet but make it gay
What can I even say about this series other than that it’s beautiful, interesting, and carried by two truly memorable main characters? With its Romeo and Juliet-inspired story, it really has everything going for it.
I genuinely enjoyed watching it so much! Tokyo and Blue are two characters with such strong, lovable personalities. You can really understand how attached they are to their families, but also how deeply they love each other. And honestly, that’s one of the things I loved the most: **their love feels so genuine and mutual.** In these kinds of series, I sometimes get the impression that one person is always more in love than the other. But that’s absolutely not the case here. They both make just as many sacrifices, they’re both willing to compromise and fight for their relationship. And I find that even more impressive when you remember they’re only in high school!
And can we talk about the parents’ egos? Because seriously, they stayed stubborn right until the very end! It honestly made me laugh, but I really appreciated that part of the story and the way the family conflicts were developed.
I also really loved Tokyo’s relationships with her friends and siblings. The contrast between her relationships with Yin and Big was especially interesting. With Yin, you can genuinely feel the sincere and deep love between siblings, whereas with Big, the relationship is much more driven by self-interest. And the fact that Tokyo is able to forgive her friend despite being betrayed says so much about her personality and the kind of person she is.
As for Blue, I absolutely adored her! I love how she isn’t afraid to stand up to her parents and challenge them. And honestly, she really wasn’t wrong about a lot of things!
Another thing I found really interesting is that **Tokyo and Blue essentially have the same kind of father, but in two completely different ways.** That adds another layer to their respective stories and to their character development.
Anyway, I definitely recommend this series! It’s a beautiful love story with lovable characters, complicated family relationships, and genuinely heartfelt emotions.
**Although I have to admit, I personally would’ve preferred a tragic ending, just to take that Romeo and Juliet inspiration all the way.**
