Takara no Vidro Spin Off (2024)

What was the point?

Basically it's just a regular episode where the viewer doesn't really get anything more out of the 10 episodes of the Takara no Vidro series.

You get 23 additional minutes of the same story without really adding much. Time has passed (between 6 months to a year) but you can't really tell by yourself, as the show needs to do so with the "Takara-senpai returns from a long hiking trip" thing. The emotional investment of Taishin himself makes it feel like he went down the convenience store, not to another country.
Even the stalker turned BL fan fic writer felt cringey, despite me being actually curious about her POV in the teaser.

Personally, I think even those who really loved this show should just move on and find something else to enjoy, as this special seemed unnecessary, even counterproductive, as Taishin and Takara felt like roommates, not lovers.

The treasure is in the relationship

I liked this. So many BLs show us the sexual tension (Where your eyes linger), gay awakening (Hidamari ga Kikoeru) or getting together (too many to mention) that we never actually see them dating. Well this was a slice of them dating and whilst it wasn't long enough to score perfect scores it was lovely to see them relaxed in the relationship without the anxiety and stress we saw before.

Interesting that a lot of people didn't rate this highly. The whole point for me is what happened next. Maybe people wanted to see something grand? Not for everyone but for me it worked. And I'm glad they didn't wait months to release this too.

Enjoy !
