Still together, still chaotic and still not talking!
This season carried the same chaos from season 1. Dramatic reactions, peak non-communication and emotional mess as Hajime and Akafuji navigate their way through figuring out their new relationship.
The comedy is filled with awkward pauses, dramatic zoom ins and over the top absurdity as expected. The non communication trope is stronger than ever but it didn't annoy me as much because I expected that, considering how much Akafuji worships Hajime and how difficult it is to convey your real feelings to your idol turned boyfriend.
But as much as I enjoyed the chaos, I was expecting a bit more growth. The emotional development of the leads felt kind of stuck, like they were still circling the same issues from Season 1 without really moving forward with the same reluctance to communicate. And while that works for comedy, it started to feel repetitive after a point. I wanted to see more emotional or vulnerable moments, something that showed how they understand each other or atleast try to convey their feelings but the drama sadly kept things on the surface level.
The pacing was somehow off too. Some episodes in the middle felt like they were stalling for time
Also, let’s talk about the kisses. Or well… whatever those were. I get it...if it had happened earlier in the season, I would have let it slide because of how the characters were at that point. But even the final kiss, after they had talked things out was honestly a bit disappointing. By then, I was just hoping they would rather hug it out and call it a day because watching that was more awkward than sweet.
Coming to supporting characters, the second couple was a pleasant surprise. They had good chemistry despite having limited on-screen time and the little backstory they gave us was enough for me to root for their relationship. I just wish they had gotten a bit more time to make their relationship more real. Hoping for maybe a little spinoff of their own in the future.
Haibara's character ended up being used mostly as a plot device to stir jealousy. I did like the little found family trope that they tried portraying but as a character he didn't get the depth he deserved.
Overall, while it didn't reinvent anything and fix all it's flaws from previous season, it stayed true to what made it fun to begin with. It was had that chaotic BL parody vibe.
I would recommend it if you enjoy the classic Japanese humor and overall chaotic vibes.
