First Filipino BL I watched
Hear me out, story wise I guess we can say it has a good but at the same time predictable flow. But I won't hold it against anyone since this was said to be an experimental series at the time. When I was able to watched this there were just two episodes airing so I decided to give it a shot.
It might felt a little cringe because of Gav's character which I guess many people would find weird in real life. He was very forward with how he feels towards Cairo that even made me doubt his intentions but after watching the next few episode carefully we do get hints that he has been a long time an of Cairo.
For the character of Cairo I would say that it was created wonderfully, it really shows in his acting how unsure he was on the feelings and forwardness of Gav but still accepted it. Elijah's acting was also amazing might I add, as it really made me feel empathy for the character's feeling of loosing someone.
The way the story address the topic of being Gay was also different from many series at the time and was well explained by both Cairo and Gavreel as most members of the LGBTQ+ of their generation would also express the same context on how they felt the same way so their acting was realistic.
I am quite biased as this was the first BL I watched so I would say that this is one of my favorites. But frankly speaking I wouldn't categorize it as a God-tier or Best BL ever. Among the best in terms of Filipino BL? Yes I would highly consider and recommend it.
