Preliminary (1/2 eps)
I found this through a friend. We're both insanely into Yaoi and BL content. She told me about this and I found it to be an interesting concept. Having watched it, I can say that I am definitely pleased with it. I won't say that it's the best that I've watched, considering some of the other animes that I've watched, but it's definitely a good one to watch.

Story: [7/10] In terms of the storyline, I feel like it might have been better to make this an actual series compared to the (currently) one OVA. While there are rumors going around about there being a second OVA in the works, we still have to keep in mind the entirety of the storyline. With it just having one or two episodes, everything will be crammed into such a short amount of space. Personally, this would fit better as a short series, such as what Yuri! On Ice was. Give it about 10-12 episodes and you could make a decent series of it, spacing-wise. Other than that, I felt everything was amazing. To me, it's almost relatable. I felt like I related to Toono and Kashima (the two transfer students) and honestly, it made it a little more enjoyable. Is it realistic? Definitely not. But do I still relate? Definitely.

Art: [7/10] I'm in no ways an artsy person. I can say, however, that I enjoy the art style. In terms of anime, there are three things that get me hooked on an anime and I need at least two of them. Those things are Storyline, Art, and Music. The storyline was amazing (as mentioned above) and the art was pleasing to the eyes (at least for me it was). There were a couple instances where it might have been a little weird for me, but in the grand scheme of things, it actually worked out and fit really well with the overall style of the anime.

Sound: [8/10] The sound was pretty good. Honestly, I had no problems with it and enjoyed everything. The background music was nice, the ending theme was actually a great song (I want to find a full-length version of it so I can have it on repeat), and the voices honestly fit really well with the characters they were for.

Character: [8/10] Honestly, I enjoyed most of the characters. Like I mentioned earlier, I related to Toono and Kashima a little. One of the main instances is their reactions to the club. On one hand, I would have freaked out and would have tried to get out like any rational person while on the other hand, I would have been interested in it because it seems like it could be fun and interesting. Another instance was the love triangle (or what I felt could've been a love triangle) or a portion of it anyways. I can definitely relate to having fallen for someone who is in love with another person. It sucks but it's definitely relatable. In terms of the other characters, I definitely enjoyed most of them. I think Yuri is someone that I could come to enjoy but he would take some getting used to. Definitely an acquired taste and is (more than likely) certifiably insane.

Enjoyment: [9/10] Like I've said many times before, I enjoyed the anime. It was something that I had liked the idea of and after having watched it was happy with it. Anyone who is a fan of Yaoi/BL would more than likely probably find some enjoyment out of it, even if it's not much for them.

Overall: [8/10] Overall, it's definitely an anime I would recommend for anyone who is a fan of Yaoi/BL. It's definitely worth giving a try and even if it doesn't end up being your cup of tea, at least you can say you tried. Personally, it's enjoyable and relatable at times and is definitely something I would like to see more of (at least in terms of the anime). I have heard that there is a manga version of it and it might be worth giving a try if you liked the anime. I'll definitely be looking into it.
