My Colleague at BL Shop Might Be the Meant-to-Be (2023)

very gentle BL/BL adjacent

Overall: I believe this was put on by a BL fan group to promote their store. If they had made things a bit more clear, I would have rated this higher. I would almost call this BL adjacent. Three short episodes on YouTube https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiXQTcPRrd9SmsXxJ7-8AIwMI3PPKzQNW

What I Liked
- sweet and cute moments
- working in a BL store is a different setting than we've seen in live action series
- it was interesting that the store owners wanted workers to call customers non gendered pronouns though I think it could have been integrated in a bit better

Room For Improvement
- I wanted the mutual attraction to be made more clear, the one guy might have just looked up to him and not in a romantic way, the plot felt incomplete

Short and subtle

I'm assuming the story has ended, considering it says only 3 episodes.

Overall, the story is subtle with the fluff, it is there but only for short moments. It's a very chill one!
The does seem to be a little hanged? It feels like they could tell more about the two and progress their relationship even more.
Shing really shows he has some sort of thing for Yiu from the start, or it could just be his straight forwardness.

If you are looking for something that is very very light, short length each episode, and very quick, this story is for you!
I don't hate it, but I do desire more of the storyline hahah
