A shorter, sweeter season 2 of an addictive master-servant BL Story

The story felt less dark and twisted than in the previous season of the drama. The master-servant relationship between the main leads remains very platonic and soft even though there are some interesting characters development happening. It keeps being a very addictive show to follow.

Hagiwara Riku (as the reserved and unconfident protagonist) continues carrying the show with his strong acting capabilities. However, Yagi Yusei (his counterpart in the relationship) is still lacking a bit in terms of transmitting candid emotions. Some of their scenes together, while very sweet, could have been better with an even stronger alchemy. The writing was really key in helping conveying feelings to the viewer.

The opening song is really great and catchy, and the overall tone of the show is much lighter as we move to a less angsty part of the relationship which is more established.

I would recommend this to people that loved the first season and that wanted to see more development in the relationship of the 2 main leads. Be aware that this second season being even shorter than the first one, it will likely leave you wanting more...
