A Promising Start That Collapses Into Narrative Chaos
Unlimited Love is, unfortunately, one of the most disappointing GL series in recent memory—if it can even be categorized as a GL at all. The first two episodes offered a glimmer of hope, hinting at emotional depth and a focused central relationship. That promise quickly evaporates. After the initial setup, the series completely loses sight of its main characters, giving them shockingly little screen time while the plot drifts aimlessly. Instead of developing the core romance, the show repeatedly introduces new characters and wastes time on unnecessary side quests, making the narrative increasingly convoluted and unfocused. At its worst, the series devotes absurd amounts of screen time—nearly ten minutes—to characters figuring out how to play a dog, while the supposed leads are sidelined. The final insult comes in the last 30 seconds, where the main couple suddenly kisses with no emotional buildup or payoff. While it’s painfully obvious that Englot was used primarily as a marketing hook, that knowledge doesn’t make the ending feel any less hollow. What could have been a meaningful GL story instead feels like a slap in the face to viewers who stayed hopeful until the end.
