Total waste of time.
No matter how much you try to convince others that this plot makes sense or deserves a higher rating, let's be real—it’s trash. The idea that a grandparent would want their grandchild to sacrifice their life for them is not only unrealistic but also ignores the natural instinct of grandparents to protect and prioritize their grandchildren's well-being. No one in 2025 would make such a ridiculous choice. No grandparent would want their grandchild to give up their life for them in the name of love. Even if the grandchild decided to do so, no grandparent would accept it.
You're not going to make it seem okay for someone that old to get another chance at life while a young person in their 20s dies for love. This narrative glorifies self-sacrifice as the ultimate act of love, which can be harmful and promote unhealthy relationship dynamics. If they were truly destined to love each other, why didn’t the boy fall for him when he was older with grey hair? Why did he have to love him only when he was in a young body? Does love only become valid when it’s visually appealing? It seems like the narrative is prioritizing the older character's desires over the younger person's life, which is a concerning power dynamic.
I’ve been watching and reading danmei for years, and I’ve seen some plots defy common sense, but there was always a semblance of humanity. This is the worst plot I’ve seen in BL, and the way they justify everything is infuriating. There’s a limit to how much nonsense one can take, and this is where I draw the line. This is trash and shouldn’t be encouraged. To the writer, let this be your first and last attempt at this kind of plot.
