It's cute and it had potential... but it's pretty average / below average for me

The series starts off with the main couple meeting in the university (college) in which Itt tells Pai about the promise he made back in highschool. After that scene, it changed to their highschool days.

Basically, this series focused more on the main characters highschool days than the university or college setting. We actually get to see the development and progress of their relationship before they'll meet once again in college.

What I like about the series is that there were sweet and subtle moments of the characters in which they were trying to figure out what their relationship was. I find those scenes to be sweet and adorable. Furthermore, I'm glad that there were scenes in which the series talked about safe sex which is really a good thing especially since the setting is in highschool. We need series that talks about this issue in a manner that it is not taken lightly. Another thing that I like is that we get to see a BL series set in highschool.

The things that really bothered me with this series is the inconsistency of the plot as well as the progress of their relationship after the main couple had a fight in their highschool days. The conflict between Itt and Pai was pretty much dry for me. Not to mention, the aditional character who showed up so that he could just be a partner for Pure was really weak for me. Pure and Folk had something going on but the execution was not really good for me. That's why the side couple didn't really leave much of an impact or impression to me. However, I can definitely say that at least I could see their affection / love for each other than Itt and Pai. Itt and Pai's relationship had a good start but it fell through for me in the last episodes because it felt dry and weak for me, like their moments were more on the friendship side. That's why when the two of them kissed, it felt kind of forced. Itt and Pai's relationship in the last episodes was rushed in my opinion.

Moreover, I actually find the last episodes to be boring like it didn't really justify much the title of the story (My gear and your gown). Like, I constantly had the thought, "what was the relevance of the title then because isn't this supposed to be the point of the series, the realizations of the main couple towards their feelings for each other?" Personally, it would have been better if the series just had a highschool setting for a change because if they were really meant to be pushing the title "My gear and your gown" then they could've just focused more on the university setting rather than the highschool setting.

The acting is also average. There were moments in which the actors portrayed their characters well and there were moments where the actors were pretty awkward or stiff or simply lacking the necessary expression. Hence, the acting definitely needs improvement.

In conclusion, this series had a good start but due to the lack of execution of the plot, the inconsistencies of the characters as well as the average acting, there's nothing much to say. If you're looking for a highschool setting BL series then you could give this one a try. What I've said in my review is entirely my opinion and it's up to you whether you'll watch this or not because perhaps, it might be something to your liking... :)
