If Inception Was Written As Tumblr Fanfiction
I don't quite know what to make of this show.
On one hand: I appreciate that they tried to tell a unique story. In a sea of mafia bosses and engineering students, I always applaud an attempt at unique storytelling in BL media.
On the other: It just doesn't completely work. There are too many things going on, and the plot really eats any forward momentum you might get out of the characters. Every time you think you're close to finally grasping the story they're trying to tell, they spin it off in a completely different direction and I'm just left confused.
I will say I appreciate that this show finally gave Ohm a character with a little bit of personality and presence, which I am grateful for. I think he is fully capable of being engaging if the writers ever gave him something to work with. I have a little more trouble trying to figure out what they wanted Fluke's character to be. Once again, he seems doomed to play the tragic pushover, cooking in the background while the world falls down around him. Fluke is a good actor, and I wish they'd allow him to explore some darker characters or even some light hearted charming ones.
I was along for the ride at first, but then the show got swallowed by its own concept. It took way too long for Mum and Dew to meet in Mum's timeline, and everything surrounding Mint was headache inducing and repetitive.
My favorite plot ended up being the side plot between Wee and Game, which honestly had no business even being in this show. It has nothing to do with the main plot, and that's probably what I enjoyed about it the most.
I will trumpet forever about wishing we could see Ohm and Fluke in one straightforward normal character driven BL series, because for some reason they receive every insane script in the industry. I want to see what they can do if they're allowed to have quiet, charming moments without all the doom and gloom and world ending catastrophe.
Not the best. Not the worst. I appreciated the effort, but in the end it fell a little short for me.
