Synopsis

Even though he is the top salesman at his company, Keiichirou Tachibana decides to quit his job to open a bakery. While looking over résumés for a head patissier, one name sticks out in particular: Yuusuke Ono, the young man who confessed his feelings to Keiichirou in high school—and whom Keiichirou harshly shot down. Now, Yuusuke is known both as a genius patissier for his skills in the kitchen, and for possessing a demonic charm that attracts even straight men into his bedroom.

Despite their shared past, Keiichirou hires Yuusuke and starts working on making the bakery a success. Before long, the pair is joined by former boxer Eiji Kanda, who is searching for a new career after an injury forced him to retire early. Everything is looking up for the newly-opened bakery named Antique—but the ghosts of the employees' pasts threaten to upset their simple lives.

If you are looking for some yaoi action or BL (boys love) unfortunately this anime is not really the case. Even though we have a character who is gay, the story doesn't focus a lot on it.

This anime has kind of a dark storie that happend to one of the main characters when he was a kid and how his life changed after it.
Some episodes made me laugh a lot and some were pretty cute. Chigake is a sweetheart, one of my favorite in this anime.
It was not a great anime, but I still enjoyed watching it.

If you want to know more about how their ...

So, I liked this anime quite a bit. It wasn't anything overly extraordinary, but it did execute a number of concepts very well with other anime struggle with.

One of the main things I'd like to mention is how they treated homosexuality in the series. The thing is, with anime there's usually a strong dividing line between "Gay Anime" and "Straight Anime". If anime is "gay-centric" it'll be a romance either centered around gay men or gay women exclusively. But this anime does something different, where it introduces gay and bi characters, but makes them and their romantic situations incidental to the ...

Honestly I have no idea how anyone could give this show a score above a 5. Typically I do not even finish shows that I deem a 5 or lower, but for some reason I kept on hoping it would get better.

Nope.

TDLR: Please do not waste your time watching this anime. It is mediocre at BEST.

Story: 3
Lets be honest: The premise is stupid. A guy decides to drop everything to open a cake shop in order to one day catch the man who kidnapped him because the man made him eat cake every day. However, even with such a dumb premise, ...
