FIRST IMPRESSION : AO TO MIDORI
The first thing I have to talk about is Ao's (Chinen Hidekazu) visuals. Aside from his impressive acting skills for such a young actor, his visuals are honestly unreal. I don't even know how to explain it. Is he pretty? Yes. Is he handsome? Also yes! Even when he cries, he somehow still looks beautiful.
As is typical of Japanese BLs, slow-burn romance is practically their signature. However, Ao to Midori takes slow burn to another level. Like, an extremely slow burn. I won't deny that these two are adorable and have great chemistry, but sometimes I genuinely feel exhausted watching them because every time they get the chance to confess their feelings, they choose to keep everything to themselves instead! And eventually, their lack of communication leads to misunderstandings, such as the scene where Ao mistakenly thinks that Midori has a girlfriend. Like, all of this could have been avoided if they had just communicated properly!
Don't get me wrong, I sometimes find their awkwardness around each other incredibly cute and amusing, especially when they struggle to sit together comfortably. Those little moments never fail to make me smile. But still, communication is something that needs to be taken seriously in any relationship.
Nevertheless, I still consider Ao to Midori my comfort BL, especially after watching several emotionally heavy dramas. There's no overly complicated or serious conflict, their friends are always supportive, and the actors' visuals are simply a pleasure to look at.
Overall, my first impression of Ao to Midori is very positive. It's such a comforting and heartwarming watch.
