No matter what everyone say, I loved it.
I have to admit that I'm completely and utterly prejudiced 😂 because takumi kun is literally my first BL ever, it marks my falling into the rabbit hole of the magical BL wonderland, so can't give it less than a 6 ( I actually rated it higher mainly because of the epic slap lol) but my point is, this movie is special.
Now if I have to say how good or bad it is ... It's bad ... Like really bad... Which is why it's actually perfect. lol ... Nope I didn't go crazy just hear me out!... The first takumi kun was out in 2007, and to give the same vibes of the original it has to mimic the old BL style, the slow scenes, the long pauses, the odd story like a puzzle that doesn't fit, the long stares, and of course the kabedon moment... this movie checks all these boxes, making it the perfect nostalgic shitty BL we used to watch and enjoy.
Be that as it may, the movie has a freshness in it, it doesn't look old despite all the similarities I mentioned, I can't put my finger on what exactly gives it this modern feeling but it was good enough to make me enjoy it more.
I know many would disagree, but if you are like me, started BL too early and have good old memories with takumi kun series, you are going to love it.
