Cute and charming but held back by weird character design

I think this movie is overall ok and enjoyable with cute BL moments. My biggest problem is the story, namely the characters and how they are designed.

The "actor" in this story is really unusual and so hard to understand with what was provided in this movie alone. He seems so unprofessional with his interaction with strangers that it is hard to imagine that is considered to be particularly famous in the world of the story. He also has the strangest interests for a person which is fine alone, but when he decides to reveal and involve someone he has met for what appears to be a short amount of time, it feels... out of place. So, both his initial design and development seem flawed to me with it feeling like there's considerable backstory I'm missing or scenes that are just being skipped. Maybe this is explained better in the series? No clue. Unfortunately, this involved one of the main characters, so it puts a big wrench in the romance when his personality is the supposed "charm" that brings them together.

With that said, I would still recommend this movie as it was enjoyable for a fellow BL enjoyer. I think if I was a bit more impartial toward BL, I would probably not recommend this to myself.
