Don't watch it and you will miss a "MASTERPIECE"

A person like me who has interest neither in reading reviews nor writing reviews suddenly watched this bl and immediately decided to write a review on it. Already I have watched it several times. Let me tell you again, " I have watched it more than thrice" and I'm DAMN sure that I'm gonna watch it more.

It's story was pretty simple , but interesting in a certain way. It was a not a toxic but a DARK love between two yakuza's. Odajima Ren, who was a victim of domestic violence in his childhood and was faintly traumatized imo. He was someone who has no one left in his life which always makes him think that there is no meaning of his existence . In his early age, he killed his own family and became an absolute solitary man. One day he found Asahi who became his family and gives him a reason to live. But when Asahi was killed because of Kataoka Kinji, a yakuza boss he again loses his hopes for living . On the contrary , it also gives him a reason to live which is to take revenge on Kataoka.

Kataoka Kinji was the another character who has an interesting character. For example,In some situations he shows his carelessness but was deeply aware of the consequences like when Odajima warned him not to go to the funeral of his dad but he doesn't care about it at all, rather he started to flirt with Odajima. Moreover, he wasn't cocky but more like a person who has had enough with the world of betrayal. I like the side of him, where he was both gentle and flirty with Odajima. I don't know why but I somehow found him obsessed with Odajima.

There feelings for each other was disturbing and wasn't revealing. Their feelings was something which was uncertain and grows gradually but silently . Their NC scene was perfectly done and I enjoyed them. I fancy their NC scenes where Kataoka was the one who was pursuing but Odajima with his uncertain feelings didn't object him . This kind of romance gives me a weird feeling but in an interesting way which I really admire.

The acting of Kataoka and Odajima was delivered so superbly that seems like they were actually jumped out from manga. This Japanese bl contributes a bunch of emotion which is not easily forgettable and makes me desperate to watch it again and again.

Overall, this is absolutely a worth watching bl series and I really enjoyed it very much!!
