I'd watch it again
Yes I skipped over the side stories, yes the character's chemistry held it up, yes First the character had huge gaps in development, yes the story needed a stretch of imaginations (but really, what BL doesn't), yes I did feel First was coming at Play a little strong without getting that yes (that's really not ok), yes I was there and only stayed there for Gameplay's acting, but that doesn't mean it was bad.
I enjoyed it. I even went back and watched a couple of my favorite parts. I gave acting/cast that high a rating because though the side *stories* were worthless, their acting wasn't. I particularily LOVED seeing the beautiful, glorious, and POSITIVE representation of the queer community here. Hence the 9.5. And of course, Play and First were fantastic, if only there was worthwhile story/development.
The low Story score is because of these sides stories that I had to skip. They were awkward. If they weren't there, maybe the story would have had the time to make First's actions/feelings make sense, patch up those gaping gaps in the storyline. Skipping the side stories definitely made an already short story significantly shorter. But short can be Sweet.
It was fluffy, cute, (except for that one part in the last episode. If you're ace you know what I mean. I can't say anything more ... explicit ... or I'll spoil things), and I want Usagi for myself so I can hug Usagi too.
Recommended if you want to escape far away from the constraints of reality, if you don't want to feel bad or sad, if you've had a (terribly) long day at work and you just want rainbows and butterflies and not thinking (key), and you don't mind skipping things (it doesn't make a difference, the sides stories are so irrelavent that you don't even know you missed them).
Also, there has got to be a sequal with an ending like that; additionally, I feel that D8 is new, and... short on resources and experience? (but again, what BL production company isn't)
