Miseinen: Mijukuna Oretachi wa Bukiyô ni Shinkôchû

I've read a lot of BL stories, fanfics, I've watched lota of animes, dramas, and this one is the best one so far.

It's subtle, it's sweet and realistic. There's no dumb humor, no cringe, no caricatural showcase of homosexuality. They start of as friends, and they really care for each other which can be shown mostly in their actions. Words aren't needed. They support and help each other, they look out for one another... The portrayal of emotions is incredible. I love the characters, I love that they're not perfect and have flaws. But they find each other and bloom, realizing there's more to life than they thought. Minase taught Hirukawa that studying and college can be rewarding, Hirukawa taught Minase that not all relationships are meaningless. The slow, increasing love, is very soft and pure. The drama shows hardships and family dysfunctions, too. To me, it's so much more than just a "cute gay show". Also, the story might seem mundane or boring for those who don't see the details and little symbols. You won't enjoy it if you aren't sensitive or empathetic. I enjoyed every second of it and watched it all so fast because I got glued to the story... I'm tired of BL series with no communication, with toxic relationships, awful jokes and unrealistic gay stereotypes. "Our youth" is beautiful, sweet, domestic... and realistic. Watch it.

I recommending everyone who wants the watch a good bl tv show. The story is heart warming and feels nice. It was nice that the subject was realistic and worth the problems in real life. In addition, the fact that both characters supported each other in the problems they faced in their lives, but never interfered with the course of troubles and overcame the problems with their own, was the most basic thing that made this story different from the others.. Also as a manhwa reader i could say that i love how they the follow manghwa storyline. And the actors who played jin and hirukawa is perfecty fit in the characters. And they reflected the personalities and energies of the characters on the show in a very beautiful way.

This is another school themed BL series, the kind about a good student falls for a bad boy. I guess this opposite attracts stuff is indeed a popular one. Maybe because it's all about the forbidden fruit, especially when it's about BL. It doubles the guilty pleasure. Although technically, the bad boy in this story wasn't really a bad seed. He's just a victim of unfortunate circumstances and a bad parent. The plot was very straightforward, with zero plot twists. The visual was good, just like the acting. There's no heavy sex scenes in it, in case you're wondering. And for those who hate sad endings, rest assured, you're not gonna find any in this movie.

The story and dialogue is so beautifully written. It captures first love and the struggles of gay people very well. The acting in it is truly amazing. The actors did a very good job portraying love between the main characters so well. I love how the dialogue is used to describe the hardship and love the characters felt in the series. I would really recommend people to give this a watch!! But be aware you will cry. The storyline is sad but it captures queer love in a very realistic aspect.

I gave this an 8 because the ending wasn't very satisfying to me. But I will say it deserves way more hype. I didnt read the original manhwa that this was adapted from, so I can't say whether or not the plot is similar. If you are thinking about watching this, please do!!

I loved every character portrayal, the story, the imagery, everything. This is a masterpiece.

Sometimes BL is an overused school-kid trope, generally involving engineering majors. This is not that. It's a beautiful story that is well told. An unlikely (from the outside) pair find solace for their loneliness together, and embark on an emotional, twisting journey. No spoilers, but I will say it's sort of a happy ending. It could be happier if it wasn't for some legal discrimination, but that's not something the writers can change alone.

Kudos to the whole cast and crew for making this lovely series.
