Preliminary (10/13 eps)
Finally, now that I've seen enough of the anime I think this is a pretty good show. If you don't like BL or smut, don't bother with this anime as it's not for everyone.

Story - 8
So far the story focuses on these two actors in love with each other, at first it was pretty unrealistic but as you get further into the story they face real-life problems. And by real-life ones, I mean problems that idols will usually face in modern day Japan if they are involved in scandals. I find it interesting to see how it deals with certain situations, it seemed cliche as heck at first but now I think I know why this got adapted. Anyway most BL doesn't focus on the reality, it's almost always fantasy and there's no consequences. I have to admit it was cringey at first and then I got used to the story.

Art - 7
The animation is actually decent for this anime, but sometimes the proportions of the characters bother me a bit and I feel that they could choose more unique character designs. I know they might have chosen this look because they wanted it to look like normal actors in Japan maybe. Either way it's still pretty good and I don't think it really impacted my enjoyment of the anime, and they did really well to express the mood of the story.

Sound - 7
The music is pretty good, I like the ED. Not a big fan of the OP but I think the music pretty much fits in with the story, just not that memorable for me. I actually kinda skipped the OP every time because I couldn't get past it without cringing, sorry to the fans of the OP...

Character - 8
I like both of the main characters. At first I didn't though because they seemed kinda shallow, but then as they got through more episodes I felt like Saijo actually had some more depth in his character.

Enjoyment/Overall - 8
Kinda combined this section since my overall would be based off enjoyment as well. I liked this series and it had more smut than most BL but I think that not everyone is fine with that, and that's ok. It really is aimed toward a specific audience so if you like BL then maybe you would like this, and I believe this anime is pretty consensual though I have heard the opposite about the manga.
