My personal taste doesn't tilt toward saccharine and brainlessly sweet. For me, the Coco Milk Shake title screamed exactly that, and so, for awhile, I ignored this really entertaining story. My bad, it's not saccharine at all. Though there are a few unexplained plot elements, it's not brainlessly sweet either. Here's my review in less than 200 words. Forget the damn title. Watch the damn show. There is humour, there is sadness, and the story moves along very quickly without the usual swampy middle found in the average BL story. I had a few Mehs about one of the romance lines, which is why I gave the overall a 9 instead of top marks. However, if I had been given the choice, I would have given the actors a 12. They are phenomenal; I am the s*it-shoveller for a cat whose disdainful stare could melt you into a puddle; as well as the guardian of a dog who loves nothing more than to shadow my footsteps, and so, I can say with authority that they nailed it. For that alone, I'd definitely rewatch this series, but not perhaps, after either my cat or my dog had just taken that rainbow bridge stroll into heaven. (Off topic thought: how'd they get the feline luminous eye effect? I swear Milk's eyes gleamed with inner light.)
