If It's with You (2023)

If you're yearning for 6 days, 23 hours, and 37 minutes to pass, the BL episode you're waiting for must be something extraordinary. ”If it's with you” is exactly that, because it is one of the cutest shows I've ever seen, although there's always an element of angst lurking underground.

Amane (Okura Takato) moves to Enoshima to finish school after unpleasant, if not traumatic experiences with gay lovers (or maybe clients?). In his new school he meets Riuyi (Hyuga Wataru) and immediately falls in love with him. Riuyi, however, doesn't have much time as he runs his late father's restaurant.

Both actors do an amazing job displaying the doubts and fears of gay boys coming of age, and they are both extremely handsome, so that their cuteness makes the viewer forget about the hard road they both had to travel.
