Can this even be considered a love triangle?
While I typically find the miscommunication trope a bit frustrating, I have to say this one was executed exceptionally well. The reason behind the misunderstanding is quite relatable: Ai, a well-known model, wants to preserve his dreams and authenticity so, he decides to embrace his true self by disguising himself while attending Fashion School. Who could blame him?
I did question his strategy of getting close to someone using both versions of himself to see which one resonates more. It felt a little disingenuous to Chiaki, especially towards the end. However, I appreciated how Ai/Enaga took responsibility for his actions and showed genuine growth, leading me to forgive him.
And can we take a moment to appreciate Ai's long, vibrant hair? It was refreshing to see a character whose true look wasn't just a disguise but an integral part of his identity. Usually, it’s the opposite, so this twist was a delightful surprise!
Now, let's talk about Chiaki! His adorably oblivious nature added a charming layer to the story. His journey alongside Ai and Enaga felt unique yet interconnected, and Nagano Ryota truly shone with his expressive portrayal. You could see his emotional range lighting up the screen as he navigated his feelings for his idol and friend.
Lastly, I wish we could see more of their blossoming relationship. I felt a little let down that their romantic moment unfolded in the final episode with just a quick kiss. But overall, this BL drama was a captivating experience that evoked all sorts of feelings. It's definitely a must-watch!
P.s hm, the cover?! Chiaki only having an arm around Enaga and not Ai? How had I not realised that before?!
