This is the second vertical AI BL drama I've sat through, and honestly I went in knowing better. I had it on while I was doing cardio at the gym, and what struck me was just how much the plot echoed the last one I watched. Same step brother romance angle, same mystery girlfriend showing up near the end, same extra guy pining after one of the leads. Genuinely the only thing going for it was the runtime, the whole thing wrapped up in forty five minutes flat. The setup kicks off with Finn moving schools because his mom just married into money. He finds out his new step brother Aiden goes to the same place, and he's warned to keep his distance from him. Their first run in at school is rocky, just like you'd expect, but there's this odd pull between them neither can shake off. Finn keeps telling himself not to read into it because Aiden's straight and openly homophobic. Things shift when some kids start bullying Finn and the student council president, Ryan, steps in to ...
Having somehow endured the first season of the show, I was dreading g the time, when I will somehow be forced (by myself) into watching this second season. Thankfully the expectations after first season were so low that this season two fits perfectly the bill. The story sort of continues but even if you haven't seen the first season, you will not miss any context.
Maykel not has his own work business, which is not important in the context of larger story. Him and Johannes seem to have broken up, but it feels like they both still love each other but are afraid to do anything about it. Thanks to Johannes' friend; he thinks maybe if he makes Maykel jealous by pretending to be with someone else, Maykel will admit his love. Somewhere during this tine, on a drunken night, Maykel ends up sleeping with J's friend. When he and Johannes are back together as a couple, he don't tell him the truth. Enter a new girl, who happens to be Johannes' old friend form younger days, who is lonely and moves in with the couple as their roommate. She is surprised to hearth Johannes is gay. When accidentally the secret of Maykel cheating on Johannes comes out, they ar both mad but thankfully on advice of their friends, they both talk and make amends. The show ends where Maykel kneels down to propose to Johannes.
Oh my god! The acting of almost no one has improved. Our main lead actor/director is still worse than some college projects. All the other actors are equally bad and some characters are introduced just for the sake of it. The girl who is Maykel's co worker has many scene sin first few episodes and then completely disappears only to be randomly replaced by another new character of Johannes' ex-girlfriend. Also I did get to see an uncensored version where we see full on sex between the two leads (almost porn).. I have no way to know the authenticity of the same but even that wasn't very scintillating to watch. This show gets added to the list of many shows/movies and other stuff that I see, question myself on why I waste my time and then just hope to forget the nightmare soon. (1/10)
